Cameron Diaz Makes Documentary to Save the World

Cameron Diaz has created a documentary aimed at increasing awareness about the perils of ignoring improving our relationship with the Earth. In it, she travels the country talking to average everyday people about the air they breathe and the water they drink and what they are doing about it.

Diaz has always felt a call to environmentalism but it wasn't until she attended a TED Conference that she decided to do more. What is a TED Conference? TED stands for Technology, Entertainment, Design and this is what TED claims it is all about: "We believe passionately in the power of ideas to change attitudes, lives and ultimately, the world. So we're building here a clearinghouse that offers free knowledge and inspiration from the world's most inspired thinkers, and also a community of curious souls to engage with ideas and each other."

Here is a link to short video about her journey:
