Some of you may be familiar with the Sundance Channel—a cable network featuring independent films and documentaries. On Tuesdays at 9pm EST the Sundance Channel features a weekly documentary series called "Big Ideas for a Small Planet." From their website:

"BIG IDEAS FOR A SMALL PLANET is a documentary series presenting the forward-thinking designers, products and processes that are on the leading edge of a new green world. Each episode revolves around a different green theme as it spotlights a specific innovator or innovation that has the potential to transform our everyday lives."

You can visit their website to view the episode guide, watch clips of shows, or get a link to download the episodes on iTunes (if you don't have cable).

In addition, now through June 24 you can vote on your favorite new green idea through their "What's the Big Idea? Contest". Again from the website, the object of this contest is to

"...provide an opportunity for consumers to share, in an original video or photo/essay format, their innovative "Big Idea" to help people live a greener life."

You have to register to vote, but you can do so here: http://www.sundancechannel.com/members/Login. I particularly like the "Ornj is Grn" nominee—these folks make bags out of used construction fencing!"
