Tell us why a film like this is so important.

Adrian Grenier

Well, hopefully it'll bring enough awareness that people want to get off their and do something about this mounting problem.

Young Hollywood

Now, what can Young Hollywood do to help, you know, solve problems like this and help make it better.

Adrian Grenier

You should vote vote with your dollars. Make sure when you buy products and things that they're products and things that are not detrimental to the environment.

Young Hollywood

I've heard you about stuff back at your home on the East Coast like denim insulation or tell us a little bit about it. I don't know the details.

Adrian Grenier

I used denim insulation. I have reclaimed hardwood floors, reusing old beams from barns. So it looks really beautiful. It has a lot of character and it's recycled. I just knew that it was up to me to actually make a difference in my own life. So I just started doing research with my mother. It took us down a really exciting path of all these new products that were actually cooler and and hipper than the old toxic materials.

Young Hollywood

Now, let's talk. I know you're doing a documentary you're working on about the Paparazzi. The dreaded Paparazzi. What what made you want to do a documentary on that?

Adrian Grenier

Where'd you hear that?

Young Hollywood

We just heard Speak of Paparazzi, hold on, this is good.

Adrian Grenier

Actually, I'm doing a documentary on media culture. It seems to be a lot of focus on the wrong types of information with so many important issues going on in the world and potentially catastrophic issues. I feel that it's a wonder that people are focused on very superficial unimportant or at least what I find to be unimportant things.

Young Hollywood

Well, here you go, Adrian Grenier, 11th hour it's a movie everyone out there needs to go check out. And I want to thank you for hanging out, man. Have fun. Congrats on everything.
