We’ve blogged about e² previously because the video series is so absolutely compelling. You can catch previews of the show at the e² series website, view episodes at Hulu, and buy episodes at iTunes. With the Brad Pitt-narrated, design season three in production and available for viewing from September 1, 2008, we can expect more incredible information in this delicious video format. While you’re waiting for the next installment, why not catch up on what’s already been produced? The critically acclaimed series envisions a better quality of life on earth and explores attainable solutions in a variety of fields: design, energy, transport, water, food, and urban development. This three pack promotional DVD giveaway is made possible through the generosity of Kontentreal.

I’m an engineering student on a budget and would love this series (they don’t have it on netflix and I don’t have cable)
My life goal is to be a green building designer and this summer I am writing a proposal to have my college build us a net Zero-Energy Home that we can design and study. So this series could really help.
l love your blog. Of all the Green blogging sites I have found, this has been the most helpful. I start every day by checking your site looking for inspiration for my work.

Great work on the blog and I hope you will follow mine too.
