New George Clooney Movie Gives TerraPass a Boost

syriana.jpgWhen the new George Clooney/ Matt Damon flick, Syriana is released later this year, the private emissions trading program Terra Pass will get star billing. In the call to action at the film’s conclusion, the audience will be encouraged to participate in the TerraPass program. While the long-term impact of the program, which allows drivers (and non-drivers) to purchase and retire CO2 emissions credits, is TBD, it is certain that participants are eager to find a solution to America’s naïve approach to the Kyoto protocol. Read more about the upcoming film at the Participant Productions website. Via BusinessWeek online

The company that produced the film (my employer) runs a site that promotes social action inspired by its films. We have a campaign to reduce dependence on oil inspired by Syriana, and even though we haven't launched the ways to take action (that comes Nov. 23), people are starting to blog about the relevant issues. Please check it out: Participate.net - hopefully the film will give much-needed momentum and mindshare to the drive to reduce our dependence on oil.
