The movie is about an author who wants to write about something more meaningful. He decides to try an experiment, with his "somewhat willing" family, to see how little impact on the environment they can have. They start out pretty agressive, and build upon it in stages over the course of a year. The final six months, they go without electricity completely.
They generate zero trash, which is truly amazing! Everything they eat is from the Farmer's Market, or bought in bulk, to prevent having any packaging/trash. They don't use any toilet paper (still confused about how they did that...) and only take public transportation.
There are two sides to this movie. First, the effort took a toll on the couple, and they were ridiculed at times. On the other hand, it made them realize what was really important in life, and break themselves from things they thought they needed. Overall, I think they grew closer going through the experience.

We decided to visit the Wellington (FL) location, which had just opened 10 days prior. We decided to order a couple pizzas to try out as many options as possible. You can select the type of crust, sauce, cheese, and of course, toppings. 
We selected an organic white crust, red sauce, pineapple and ham for one of the pizzas. We also selected a multigrain crust, with pesto sauce, caramelized onions and spinach for the toppings. To start things off, we ordered breadsticks, which came in both white crust and multigrain crust, along with side toppings of olive oil, olive and marinara sauce. 
Everything tasted great! No complaints about the food. What made it even better was the surrounding environment. The restaurant was clean, the staff was friendly, and the location was decked out every way possible in environmentally-friendly decor, such as: bamboo flooring, reclaimed wood tables, recycled countertops, water-saving toilets, low VOC paint, bamboo menus on recycled paper. 
Since we didn't get our pizza delivered to us, we only saw the hybrid cars in the parking lot, but investing in them is a large step for any pizza company. They apperared to spare no expense to send the right message about their mission and dedication to minimizing their carbon footprint.
