Vegetarian Star

Isabella Rossellini took Sundance Channel viewers into the sex lives of spiders, ducks and anchovies with her Green Porno and Seduce Me series.

Rossellini’s shows are designed to entertain and educate, as such was the case with an episode touching on sustainable fish and the problems of overfishing.

Rossellini shares in an interview with Treehugger:

“To myself I called them Green Porno with a Conscience. This was the series called Bon Appetit, and they all start with me preparing delicious risotto with shrimp, or eating fried calamari or eating anchovies on my pizza. And then they stop and there’s a vignette on how they’re made and how they are fished, how actually they are over-fished so that we are depleting our ocean.”

“And so we did Green Porno–Bon Appetit about three species that we always eat: shrimp, anchovies, and calamari. We assume these dishes are always available. But we are six billion people and we cannot have all of this available because here we are eating our way through the ocean and depleting it. So I did do three that were specifically more explicit in their environmental message.”
