HOLLYWOOD
(October 22, 2009) - Last night, over a hundred invited VIP guests attended
the exclusive closing of ENVIRONMENTALAND,
conceived by Environmental Non-Profit, Global
Inheritance, and presented by FUEL TV -
and with its first Los Angleles incarnation now complete, the world’s
first interactive, environmentally themed space is ready to tackle the
rest of the states.
Recently
featured on CNN International’s “Eco-Solutions” as
well as E! Entertainment’s "That Morning Show," ENVIRONMENTALAND
is part museum and part mini mobile theme park. The space features a
number of interactive exhibits
from an Eco-Planetarium by The
Reclamation Project, The
Energy FACTory with bike
powered cell phone charging station and the Pearl Jam hand crank
listening station to TRASHed:
Art of Recycling Exhibit with customized recycling bins, each
decorated by a different notable pop culture artist. Upon
arrival, visitors receive a program scorecard to collect points as they
interact with the various exhibits which can be redeemed
for prizes including merchandise from Focus Features, CamelBak,
Logitech, 20th Century Fox, Warner Music, Thievery Corporation, Netflix,
Coachella, ESPN X Games, Interscope Records, Paramount, Goldenvoice,
and more.
"FUEL
TV is excited to be supporting ENVIRONMENTALAND," says CJ Olivares,
FUEL TV General Manager. "FUEL TV has worked with Eric Ritz and
Global Inheritance on several different projects in the past and ENVIRONMENTALAND
is one of the most exciting yet. It engages and educates the audience
in a way that maximizes the impact of the environmental lessons it teaches.
We're excited to have people check out the project and learn something
from it."
WIth
designs by Eyerus, customized
screen printing by Hit+Run,
organic wines from Yellow+Blue, spirits by Veev, an acoustic performance
from Jason Lytle (the lead singer of Grandaddy), and the help of partners
like Keldof Marketing
- guests of the closing event were the last to enjoy this educational
playground, located in the heart of Los Angeles' Hollywood & Highland
complex, before it moves to its next location in Portland, Oregon in
early 2010.
