Global Green – Eco Goody of the Month

Global Green USA was recognized as our Eco Goody Award of the Month for February 2013, for rallying celebrities for a cause at their 10th Annual Pre-Oscar® Party in Hollywood. Celebrities who rallied for this cause included Willie Nelson, Emmy Rossum (“Shameless”), Best Actress Nominee Helen Hunt (“The Sessions”), Luke Perry (“90210”), D.W. Moffett (“Switched at Birth”), Ed Begley Jr. (“Easy to Assemble”) and his wife Rachel Carson (“Boston Legal”), Peter Mensah (“True Blood”), and more. This eco-event included a VIP cocktail reception, Patron dinner and musical performances by Willie Nelson and his sons, Micah and Lukas.

Willie Nelson was the honorary guest who played a concert after dinner with his sons. His support for green goes way back, and he was the guest of honor in many ways. When asked about his green initiatives, he shared, “We’ve been doing Farm Aid now for 28 years so we try to take care of the farmer because he is our most important guy out there. He grows mine and your food so we should take care of him.” On a community level, Willie added, “We try to buy local, sustainable things and encourage others to do that.”

Luke Perry was there to learn more about how to go green, and he came to the party in a Chevy Volt. For more information on how to go green, follow @GlobalGreen.
