“I’m so pleased to see the continued support for Global Green and its national initiatives from the Hollywood community,” said Matt Petersen, Global Green USA President and CEO. “By raising awareness about the threats posed by climate change and by holding our corporate and political leaders accountable, we can make a real difference. Americans can and must do something about climate change, and we can start by creating green buildings, schools, cities and communities that create green jobs, save money and improve our health.”

Prior to the walking the carpet at the event, many of the celebrities recorded an online video PSA entitled “I Am” that will soon be released at www.globalgreen.org. The PSA, written in collaboration with Global Green supporter Marshall Herskovitz and made possible by Paul Emami’s Storytellerz, raises awareness of the threats posed by global climate change to more than 150 million Americans and more than 2.75 billion globally.
