"BLUE VINYL" DVD RELEASED: FILLED WITH "ACTIVIST EXTRAS" AND CONCRETE STORIES OF IMPACT OF THE PVC-FREE REVOLUTION

Since its triumphant debut at the 2002 Sundance Film Festival and its broadcast on HBO in 2003, BLUE VINYL has been part of a revolution to reduce our country's dependence on polyvinyl chloride (PVC), the most ubiquitous plastic in our consumer society and one of the most toxic known to science.

BLUE VINYL's creators Judith Helfand and Daniel B. Gold weren't just interested in creating another documentary: They wanted to launch nothing short of a PVC-free revolution. Thousands of viewers have committed to PVC reduction as a result of seeing BLUE VINYL. And now with BLUE VINYL being released in a DVD edition jam-packed with extras, the message of the PVC-free movement can empower an even wider audience.

The DVD extras include a 17-minute epilogue to BLUE VINYL and a short, "Let the Consumer Revolution Begin," documenting the ways that BLUE VINYL has already begun having an impact, including the construction of the first "green" healthy and affordable PVC-free Habitat for Humanity House in New Orleans sponsored by Greenpeace and Healthy Building Network.
