Greenlighting Sustainable Eco-Friendly Productions

Ahead of Earth Day, host Candice Bloch interviews Kat Friis, an Emmy award-winning producer and founding member of Green the Bid, a grassroots, non-profit industry organization that aims to shift the media production industry to zero-waste, minimal carbon, sustainable and regenerative practices. The two discuss the importance of sustainability in the production industry, educating and advocating for sustainable practices, and practical steps that producers can take to reduce their carbon footprint. The conversation also touches on common misconceptions about sustainability, the cost-effectiveness of sustainable practices, and the resources available through Green the Bid for those looking to implement eco-friendly practices in their productions.
