Being green is no longer just for greenies. No longer the domain of the softly spoken hippy, being green has gone mainstream, and has hit the media with a bang.
This means that watching clips about our environment is not longer about enduring meaningful but mind-numbingly boring footage of composting or homemade sauce-making tips.
It's true: being green and caring about our environment can be funny, clever, silly and inspiring, as well as informative and interesting.

If you know of any other clips that you think we and our readers might enjoy, send them through to us! Click here to contact us.
