Robert Redford was at BAM this past Sunday to speak about his career in film as well as his environmental activism. And while he didn't have enough time to talk about the environment, you can read my story about it anyway, because, well, isn't he awesome?
And since this is an eco blog, check out Redford's own environmental blogging at the Huffington Post.
