The Lazy Environmentalist (Sundance Channel)

Despite its title, this mild series actually works pretty hard to underscore the idea that living a greener lifestyle doesn't require a lot sacrifice -- simply an awareness of what we're consuming and a willingness to change some less-than-ideal habits. It also demonstrates how people can find ways to be more environmentally friendly and still easily support their personal and business needs.

Although the show is a promotional vehicle for the host's pro-green agenda, The Lazy Environmentalist is remarkably non-judgmental. Dorfman himself points out eco-friendly alternatives that don't really work for him (like driving around hot Los Angeles without air conditioning), though they may click for others. Ultimately, the show's overall message is clear: Any green changes you make -- no matter how small they are -- will make a major positive difference to our planet.
