Watch: Greenbuild 2009 blooper reel

The blooper reel from the Green Aha! Moment video booth at Greenbuild 2009 is now available online.

Mon, Nov 23 2009 at 4:52 PM EST

 
Who doesn’t love a blooper reel? As I watched people record videos at the Green Aha! Moment booth on the Greenbuild 2009 expo floor, I had no clue that a blooper reel would be made. Although this may not generate big belly laughs like outtakes from a Will Ferrell movie, it is certainly worth a few chuckles.
 
To get a better idea of what the Green Aha! Moment was really about, watch the highlight video.
 

 
HOK, an award-winning architectural design firm, was the creative force behind the Green Aha! Moment booth. Instead of highlighting their services, the company asked conference attendees to share their own personal green stories. Many of these videos are now available on the YouTube Green Aha! Moment page.
 
I didn’t make a video but my Green Aha! Moment came shortly after the birth of my son. A quick look at the ingredients on his tear-free baby shampoo set me off on my own green journey. Now it is your turn, what was your Green Aha! Moment?

My Green Aha! moment came when I was a youngster traveling with my family through an industrial city with dozens of smokestacks spewing smoke into the sky. I wondered why/how these companies could be allowed to pollute so freely. I still wonder...

I can imagine your surprise at seeing the smokestacks and how neat that you can remember that moment even though you were a child. I grew up in a copper mining town and so I was used to seeing smokestacks high up on the hill with its pretty "cloud making" capability (that's what they looked like to me).
