PASADENA, Calif.–When the name of your cable channel is Planet Green, and tree hugger Ed Begley Jr. is your guest, you better not waste any energy. That`s why buddy to the right was hired to peddle a bicycle-powered smoothie blender contraption at Planet Green`s press tour session earlier this week. The group behind the peddle-powered punch–Global Inheritance (not the Asper boys, that would be Squandered Global Inheritance)–have all kinds of off-the-grid-goodies including a solar-powered oven and even a bike-powered TV set. There`s hope for TV critics yet.
