Dear Neighbors, I am the producer and co-founder of a film that has been winning awards on the festival circuit for the past year, and I've planned a local screening that you all are welcome to attend. I drive the Ford Escape Hybrid that says "YERT.com" on the sides-- perhaps you've seen it? Read on for more details... There is a free screening of the eco-docu-comedy "YERT - Your Environmental Road Trip" (with hot dogs and popcorn, too!) at the Pittsburgh Green House this coming Wednesday, 8/15. I will be there for discussion (and a bite of popcorn), and would love to see you there. You can watch the trailer at http://yert.com . *The YERT film is fun for the whole family.* Click here<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dEk4bG14N2YyV1M1dUwtVGtNYU90LVE6MQ#gid=0> to register for the screening. After seeing the YERT film, people often ask, "What can I do now?" And the Pittsburgh Green House is a great place to find some important answers to that vital question. The screening starts at 6pm, but you can swing by for a tour of the house at 5:30pm. Here's a blurb about the Pittsburgh Green House: * * *The Pittsburgh Green House, a project of ACTION-Housing, Inc., is a 110-year-old home that has been renovated as a weatherization training and educational facility where contractors and the general public can learn about residential energy and water savings and making homes healthier. ** http://www.pittsburghgreenhouse.org/* I've been to PGH a few times and it is awesome. Hope to see you there!
