Emily is Green with Glamour

Aug 21, 2008 11:02

“My number one place to buy gifts is Green with Glamour, but I never can resist getting several things for myself as well. It’s wonderful to know that you can be eco-friendly, ethically sound, and not have to scrimp on style. They do all of the whittling away, so you are only browsing the creme de la creme. It makes shopping so easy! From eco fashion to beautiful furniture, GWG has everything I could possibly want (or need).”

- Emily Deschanel

She’s gifted, gorgeous, and oh-so-green! And please let us tell you, we’re absolutely thrilled to have her as a client & contributor to Green with Glamour™.

An actress with talent and poise, Emily has quickly built an impressive repertoire. Currently starring on FOX’s hit series “Bones”, Deschanel plays ‘Dr. Temperance Brennan,’ a forensic anthropologist & novelist with an uncanny ability to read clues left behind in a victim’s bones. The show premieres it’s fourth season on Wednesday, September 1st, 2008.

On the big screen, we look forward to Emily’s upcoming cameo in Nick Cassavetes’ “My Sister’s Keeper.” While other credits include “Glory Road”, “Cold Mountain”, “The Alamo”, “Spiderman 2”, “Boogeyman”, and Jane Weinstock’s “Easy.” A member of the Interact Theatre Company, Deschanel’s recent theatre credits include the roles of ‘Emily’ in “Our Town” and ‘Natasha’ in “Three Sisters.”

Aside from acting, Emily continues to knock our socks off as a busy and passionate activist - among her devotions are animal welfare, environmentalism and womens’ rights (all efforts that we at GWG strongly support). Also a strict vegan, Ms. Deschanel is a living example of the fact that a mindful, modern existence can also be completely chic… proving that she is definitely “green with glamour!”

We asked Emily to list a handful of causes that she holds near & dear… please be sure to check out the efforts she supports:

*
* Farm Sanctuary
* Women for Women International
* Amnesty International
* Natural Resources Defense Council
* Adrienne Shelly Foundation
* Save the Chimps
* Rattle the Cage Productions
* Stop Global Warming

Emily's Eco Favs

As most of you may know, Emily is heavily involved in Farm Sanctuary (see the link in the article) and and ever since the Farm Sanctuary Gala in May, I, too, have become more and more involved with the organization.

For those of you who are unaware of what Farm Sanctuary is: There are two locations, in NY and CA, and they do their best to rescue farm animals from places like factory farms and animal fighting rings to help give them a better life. I even recently sponsored a chicken of my own, named Twinkle, who was rescued from a cockfighting ring.

On September 28, I will be taking place in Farm Sanctuary's Walk for Farm Animals in New York City. I have set up a secure, online donation site at First Giving. Every donation (even as little as $1) is greatly appreciated by not only myself, my team and the wonderful people at Farm Sanctuary but also by the animals that have been rescued and are now living a happy, healthy life because of them (and you).

If you're interested in participating, you can check out all the walk locations and how to sign up, here. If you're in the NY area, and interested in joining my team, let me know and I'll get you the information that you need to join us. Thanks!
