TV & Internet...

The Discovery Channel's much anticipated all green, all the time eco channel "Planet Green" will launch June 4th. Formerly "Discovery Home," Planet Green will feature 250 hours of original green lifestyle programming.

"Planet Green represents a full spectrum of life experiences, personalities and points of view," said Eileen O'Neill, President and General Manager, Planet Green. "Working with a broad range of partners, our goal is to find innovative ways to engage people of all ages and backgrounds through content that's entertaining, relevant and accessible. Planet Green is about motivating people to take an active role in a new conversation about the future of our planet."

The bad news is I won't get Planet Green. At least not yet. I never get the good channels, but then, in my neck of the woods we're lucky we have cable TV.

But I digress...

Expect to see specials and programs featuring Emeril Lagasse, Adrian Grenier, Tom Bergeron, Tom Brokaw and Tom Green. That's the Green Tom Trifecta right there. Previews of Planet Green will begin to appear on Video on Demand and also through the PlanetGreen.com website starting April 17th.

Programs include:

• Emeril Green - Emeril Lagasse's new green cooking program. The focus will be on organic and locally grown foods."
• "G" Word -The "G" word, of course, is "green." Not so taboo anymore though. Expect to see lots of green news and products.
• The Green Life - Adrian Grenier will show us how we can become green like him.
• Greenovate - As one would expect, this series is about making one's home more green.

That's only a sampling of the wonderful programming coming to us on June 4th. Well coming to you. I'll probably have to wait a few years until it gets to my neighborhood.
