Green Week November 15-21
« on: November 10, 2009, 06:29:50 AM »
Next week apparently is the Green is Universal Week for TWC (and the NBC networks). I just saw an ad for some program airing on Sunday. I didn't catch the whole promo, but it did have the Green is Universal logo at the end.

This would be the best Green Week ever. Because Dr. Cullen and the whole Forecast Earth frenzy wont be there...or maybe?  :blink:

I concur with Martin.  I think they should just concentrate on getting forecasts right, secede from NBC and return to an all-weather network.

I can understand having a "Green Week" during the same week as Earth Day in April, but it doesn't really make a lot of sense to have one in November with everything dying off for winter and no day of any kind around to commemorate the environment.

The logo has already gone green on the HD LF. I'd expect the other instances of the logo to change at the top of the hour.

You are correct. Right at the start of Storm Stories, the logo changed to green.

Agreed, I never understood why they have two green weeks. One during the week of Earth Day is enough.

Stephen, what do you think about Green Week?

Exactly. One a year is good enough.....the week of Earth Day is a good time for it.

Yes, once a year is okay. Doing it multiple times is just overkill and a waste of time. I wonder how many people actually care. My mom certainly doesn't care, and shes the average TV viewer...

Green week is pointless, IMO. Green associates with Spring not Winter
