WDCC is proud to announce that "Green Magazine TV," a new television series
highlighting some of the most energy efficient organizations in the world,
will commemorate and celebrate the 40th Anniversary of Earth Day with a
superstar lineup of America's "greenest" companies.





DEERFIELD BEACH, Fla., Oct. 26 /PRNewswire/ -- "Green Magazine TV" produced by
WDCC, is a new television series featuring ecology- and energy-conscious
companies and organizations. This series will showcase some of the newest and
"greenest" technologies being utilized, and is scheduled to be aired as paid
programming on the Discovery Channel.

The world will be celebrating the 40th Anniversary of Earth Day on April 22,
2010. Earth Day is a day designed to inspire awareness and appreciation for
the Earth's environment. The United Nations celebrates an Earth Day each year
on the March Equinox, which is often March 20, Spring in the Northern
Hemisphere and Autumn in the Southern Hemisphere. The first Earth Day brought
some 20 million Americans out into the spring sunshine for peaceful
demonstrations in favor of environmental reform.  

Started in 1970 by U.S. Senator Gaylord Nelson (D-Wisconsin), Earth Day is now
observed in 175 countries and coordinated by the non-profit Earth Day Network,
according to whom Earth Day is now "the largest secular holiday in the world,
celebrated by almost a billion people participating in environmentally focused
activities in thousands of places including Kiev, Ukraine; Caracas, Venezuela;
Tuvalu; Manila, Philippines; Togo; Madrid, Spain; London and New York."
Environmental groups have sought to make Earth Day into a day of action which
changes human behavior and provokes policy changes aimed at the sustainability
of the Earth and its inhabitants.

"Green Magazine TV" will present a special program commemorating and
celebrating the 40th Anniversary of Earth Day with a superstar lineup of some
of America's "greenest" companies. Look for announcements of the individual
participants during the upcoming weeks.
