Buffy is back in Climate Progress. I'll take any excuse!
Turns out former Buffy star Sarah Michelle Gellar is green, or at least green-tinged, like those monsters she used to fight.
She brings her own reusable bag to Whole Foods. Why? "So I get a discount." Okay so the millionaire actress is cheap frugal. You got a problem with that?
She also rides a bike, to the annoyance of her neighbors:
Not only is it bright pink with the bell and streamers and the whole thing, but it has Hello Kitty tires. Every time I leave my apartment, my doorman just shakes his head.
Interestingly, some of the demons on Buffy spin-off Angel were also green, figuratively speaking. For the sake of its vampire employees, the Los Angeles offices of Wolfram & Hart employ "necro-tempered" tinted glass, which "filters out the constituents of sunlight that are dangerous to vampires while leaving the brightness intact. Plus it's thirty percent more energy efficient!"
And you thought TV was a vast wasteland.

Feel fine maybe.
It is so "out" to not say you are green. Expect to hear it from many, many more "important" people.
As long as these declarations in favor of the environment are published in fashion magazines like Vogue or People, you cannot expect much change from those who are uttering those declarations. The change we need to see would be too EXTREME for those publications.
But it is good that she rides her bike and brings her own bags. Even if it is just to save a buck or two. It is just not enough to support sustainable living.
No light in sight here.
