Our video above (heavily featuring Everything's Cool producer, Adam Wolfensohn) shows the delivery and distribution of over 3600 energy-saving compact florescent lightbulbs generously donated by IKEA at Sundance.

Lighting accounts for about 15 percent of household energy use. If you swap the five standard light bulbs you use most for energy-saving compact fluorescents, you can save roughly $60 each year on electricity. Make sure you use EnergyStar compact fluorescents, which are tested for quality and longevity. Visit the Natural Resources Defense Council website to learn more ways to save energy and decrease your carbon footprint.

As the curtains close after Everything's Cool screenings at Sundance, audience members are signing postcards to Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid – urging Congress to STEP UP their commitment to address global warming. Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) Energy Efficiency Tip cards are being distributed with over a thousand IKEA compact florescent light bulbs.


Everything's Cool and Working Films are also offsetting over 300 pounds of the carbon emissions generated from travel to Sundance - Cool Tags are being sported by each Everything's Cool audience member. To counter the CO2 emitted by the cars, planes, and other transportation used to get to the festival, Clif Bar Cool Tags represent an investment in the Alaskan Native Village Wind Project. Take the next step and offset your own carbon with NativeEnergy.
