About [Edit]
YERT (Your Environmental Road Trip)
is
a year-long eco-expedition through all 50 United States. With video
camera in hand and tongue in cheek, we're exploring the landscape of
America's unique approach to environmental sustainability.
We believe
that Americans want to do the right thing - they just don't want to
look strange doing it, and they don't have the time or the means to
explore all the options. That's where the YERT team comes in. Follow us
each week as we shamelessly bathe ourselves in the best (and weirdest)
of America's ecological progress with a mix of outrageous antics,
provocative examples, and thoughtful reporting. Got an idea? Want a
clue? Let's get rolling!
