Hello People:
I’m just in the middle of
finishing my first film Rebirth
of a Nation but during the
interim, there’s a couple of
concerts I’m doing in NYC.
If you’re around on March 1st
(this Thursday), I’d like to
extend an invitation to you to
come out to the show I’m doing at
Town Hall.
It’s a benefit for an interesting
arts/experimental music venue
called The Stone and the lineup

An Inconvenient Truth just won for
best documentary!
In Nosara, at John’s suggestion, I
rented An Inconvenient Truth from
the Frog Pad, and watched it on
my laptop, in my room, before
going to sleep. Those of you
who’ve seen it can imagine
what an intense experience that
was. The next day, John had said,
“I’m so sorry. No one
should have to watch it alone.”
OK! Thanks John!

So John’s earlier post about
Greendimes led me their great
blog. In one amusing entry, the
Greendimes staff blogs about what
they do when what they do when
their boss is away. What do they
do? They have a contest. They see
which among them dreams up the
best socially-conscious outfit
they would wear to the Grammys.
Their elected winner is a
“blue-velvet dress” with a
sign that reads “Animals are
Little People in Fur Coats!” Also
on their blog is

I was out here in LA for meetings
this Oscar week and got an offer
to borrow a board. Then it
rained, and I was shocked to
learn that the pollution is so
bad that you’re not supposed to
surf for three days afterwards. I
knew you weren’t supposed to surf
the next day, but three days?
People, we have got to clean
things up, and for God’s sake,
let’s not let this happen
in Costa Rica. I don’t know it for
a fact, but I have heard that the
U.S. was pushing Costa Rica to
privatize its beaches as part of

A recent Surfer’s Path editorial on
sustainable surf gear. Some
tidbits:
“In the meantime (and I don’t mean
to piss on your permafrost or
anything), here are some tough
questions about being a surfer.
They boil down to this: how much
of this wonderful surfing life
would you actually sacrifice for
the sake of a cleaner planet?”

On my second evening in Nosara, a
bunch of “Harmonizers” went over to
La Luna: one of the few
restaurants in Nosara right on
the waterfront. Apparently, it
was built before regulations
prevented direct waterfront
development. We were a funny
sight: a centipede of people
stumbling around in the dark,
except for Paul, who sped right
along — either he has nocturnal
vision, or he was not kidding
when he said that he’d eaten at La
Luna every night of the week.

Wow. What an interesting coming
together of the for-profit world
with the non-profit.
I wonder with great anticipation
how successful or not this
partnership will be for Sprint.
What do you guys think?

From the Sierra Club: several
charts based on the National
Climatic Data Center’s findings
that 2006’s average U.S.
temperature was the warmest on
record!
The map breaks their findings
down by state, so you can see
which states had the worst “fever”
last year.
Seriousness aside, notice that
the big climate change loser last
year was New Jersey. The New
Yorkers I know are laughing…
