- recipient: "It's Not Easy Being Green" on DVD!!!! Is that too much to ask?!
Despite it's overwhelming success and devoted cult following the BBC still refuse to release the television documentary "It's Not Easy Being Green" on DVD. As well as being hugely entertaining it also dealt with massive environmental issues. The book of the TV show was released and it flew off the shelves but still no sign of a DVD!! When you visit their website it is plagued by queries about a release date but Dick has confirmed that the BBC have no intention of making one. Please help to get this fantastic show released onto DVD!!! If you are a lover of all things green, all things eco or all things just a bit different then this is the show for you, and if you didn't see it first time around, unless we get our DVD, you won't get to see it!!! Please help this incredible family and this incredible cause because as we all know, it's really not easy being green!

We the undersigned have created this petition in order to illustrate the demand for
"It's Not Easy Being Green" on DVD. This show had a great following when it was aired and when the book was released. We do not understand that such an entertaining and educational show should have been overlooked when it came to releasing the neverending list of BBC programmes committed to disc. The Strawbridge family became poster children for environmental issues and pioneered a show that not only dealt with important green issues but actually practiced what it preached. It was hugely entertaining and inspired many to tkae a more responsible approach to their lifestyles. Surely in the social climate which we currently find ourselves nothing could be more important than encouraging others to take personal responsibility and to seek to remedy the damage that they have wrought over the years. With the recent mania for reducing, reusing and recycling and the introduction of such familiar phrases as "carbon footprint" and "eco friendly" surely the time is right for this kind of show.
We thank you for taking time to read our petition and hope that you will see the benefits of releasing this DVD - not only environmentally for everyone else but commercially for yourselves.
