IN EVERY COUNTRY, EVERYDAY PEOPLE ARE BEGINNING TO TAKE PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY FOR CARING FOR OUR BEAUTIFUL PLANET. BY USING INNOVATIVE AND NATURAL APPROACHES TO FARMING, ENERGY, AND ARCHITECTURE, ALL OUR GUESTS TODAY HAVE TAKEN MEASURES ON A SMALL SCALE AS PART OF LARGER MOVE TO HEAL AND NURTURE THE EARTH. JOIN US AS WE VISIT SWITZERLAND, THAILAND, AND NEW YORK TO SEE HOW PEOPLE AROUND THE GLOBE HAVE INTERNALIZED THE MOTTO "THINK GLOBALLY, ACT LOCALLY", AND THE OFTEN ARDUOUS WORK BEHIND BEING "GREEN". MARCO KLURFELD, JOHN ROPER, AND maryknoll sister, anne braudis ARE OUR GUESTS.

PERHAPS THE WAY TO SAVING THE EARTH BOILS DOWN TO A WILLINGNESS TO FOREGO CONVENIENCE AND EMBRACE HARD WORK AS A MEANS TO ENJOY AND CONSERVE THE GIFTS THAT THE NATURAL WORLD HAS TO OFFER. BUT IN ADDITION TO GOOD OLD-FASHIONED ELBOW GREASE, A CHANGE IN MINDSET IS ALSO ESSENTIAL. THIS MEANS THINKING ABOUT OUR ROLE IN THE FOOD CHAIN, ENCOURAGING BIODIVERSITY, AND EATING SEASONALLY AND LOCALLY AS A MEANS TO LESSEN THE IMPACT OUR SEEMINGLY ENDLESS CONSUMPTION HAS ON OUR PLANET. MARCO KLORFELD, JOHN ROPER, AND maryknoll sister, anne braudis ARE OUR GUESTS.
