EcoZone Presents an Inside Look at Going Green at Home with Allison Janney

Thu Dec 6, 2007 11:28am EST
New Program to Premier in New York and Los Angeles on December 9th and 15th
Respectively

    NEW YORK, Dec. 6 /PRNewswire/ -- The EcoZone Project, a first-ever
television show dedicated to green home improvement, today announced the debut
of Episode 3, during which Daisy Fuentes and her team of "eco experts" will
make over the Los Angeles home of four time Emmy(R) Award winner Allison
Janney.
    The one-hour program, airing on New York City's FOX affiliate on December
9th at 5 p.m. and on Los Angeles's CBS affiliate on December 15th at 4 p.m.,
will demonstrate useful "eco tips" that viewers can repeat in their own homes
to help improve the environment. The nationally syndicated show will air on
160 major network channels throughout the country in December and January.
    "Episode 3 featuring Allison Janney is jam-packed with loads of
eco-friendly tips designed to help viewers make their own homes as green as
possible," said Paul Polizzotto, Executive Producer of The EcoZone Project and
Founder and CEO of EcoMedia. "In each of our shows, we try to arm viewers with
truly useful information in a way that's entertaining, and we think this
particular episode has something for everyone who's thinking about making
their home 'green'."
    Janney wanted to make her romantic cottage home "greener" both inside and
out, so the "Green Team" went to work, creating sustainable results. Viewers
can watch the following changes take place during the show's airing:    -- The
team installed a new fireplace mantle made of bamboo -- a grass and
       not a tree -- and the grains of the bamboo made for a lighter mantle
       complemented by recycled glass tiles.
    -- Janney got a new sofa from Cisco made from FCRC certified wood, natural

       latex and eco friendly cotton and wool materials.
    -- Outside, the team refurbished an old weathered deck made of polyboard
       and aluminum materials that are 100% recyclable.
    -- Because it was getting costly to keep the outdoor pool warm, The Green
       Team installed solar thermal heating on a flat roof top that now heats
       the pool using only solar energy.


    Each EcoZone episode chronicles a behind-the-scenes look at how
celebrities turn their homes into environmentally friendly zones.  Previous
episodes feature the homes of actors Ron Livingston and Patrick Warburton.
    "I'm proud to be part of a TV show that is not only entertaining but gives
me and the viewer so much valuable information," host Daisy Fuentes said. "The
EcoZone Project is leading the way in environmentally conscious entertainment.
We can't be aware enough when it comes to the world we live in."

EcoMedia(R). Viewers can visit EcoZone.tv or EcoZoneMedia.com for more
