Vivavi.com Founder, Josh Dorfman will host “The Lazy Environmentalist” starting June 6th
(PRWEB) June 6, 2005 -- Beginning June 6, 2005, a new internet talk radio
show will explore the emerging possibilities for effortlessly greening our
modern lifestyles. “The Lazy Environmentalist” will air on the VoiceAmerica
Health & Wellness Channel (http://www.health.voiceamerica.com/), the destination for live
internet talk radio, as a source for style savvy consumers interested in
protecting the planet without skimping on design. With topics including
alternative and complimentary care, mental health, anti-aging, food and
nutrition, weight loss, kids’ and teen’s health, women’s health, men’s health
and sexuality, the VoiceAmerica™ Health & Wellness Channel provides
education, interaction and advice on key issues in a variety of health related
topics.
From eco-fashion and sustainable furniture, to hybrid cars and
solar charging backpacks, the last few years HAVE witnessed an explosion of
ecologically-minded activity within the design community. “The Lazy
Environmentalist” will highlight the products and services as well as the
designers and entrepreneurs who are making the modern green lifestyle a reality.
Josh Dorfman, founder and CEO of Vivavi.com, a destination for contemporary,
eco-friendly fashion, furniture and furnishings, is the host and co-creator of
the show.
“Most of us care strongly about the environment and most of us
are pretty lazy when it comes to doing something about it,” says Dorfman. “Now
it’s not only easy, but totally cool and design-driven.”
The Lazy
Environmentalist will air live on Mondays at 4 pm. Eastern (1pm Pacific) at http://www.health.voiceamerica.com/ The show begins on Monday,
June 6th with initial guests to include Graham Hill, founder of Treehugger.com,
a fast-growing web magazine that is the definitive source for modern, green
lifestyle trends. Treehugger’s network of global writers continually combs the
planet for cutting-edge, environmentally responsible products and ideas.
The first show will also feature David Hermance, Executive Engineer for
Environmental Engineering at Toyota Technical Center U.S.A. Representing one of
The Lazy Environmentalist’s key themes – sustainable transportation -- David
will discuss hybrid automobile developments at Toyota and throughout the
automobile industry and offer a glimpse into the nation’s sustainable driving
future.

Wellness Channel by logging onto http://www.health.voiceamerica.com/ every Monday at 1PM

Each week the hour long talk
radio show will cover a different aspect of contemporary green living including
eco-fashion, sustainable furniture, green building and architecture, eco-travel,
and sustainable transportation. Dorfman’s guests will be the designers and
entrepreneurs who are actively pushing sustainable living into the
mainstream.
“This intense conversation has been going on within the
design community for a long time about how to integrate environmental principles
into mainstream products and services,” says Dorfman. “However, it’s just within
the last couple of years that the forces of technology, commerce and
environmental necessity have begun to align in ways that are enabling more and
more eco-designers to move from concept to prototype to saleable product, be it
a shirt or sofa or luxury high-rise apartment building. Through “The Lazy
Environmentalist” we’re sharing these innovative developments with a wider
audience.”
Aligning contemporary design with environmental responsibility
is a focal point for Dorfman who launched Vivavi.com in 2003 for that express
purpose. As more and more opportunities abound for consumers to bring these two
interests together, Dorfman is at the forefront of a profound shift towards a
modern green lifestyle.
