A trove of ecologically-conscientious celebrities showed up on Ron Robinson's "green carpet," supporting Earth Day last Thursday.


The Bagley Family. Wife, Rachelle, Daughter, Hayden, and actor/activist, Ed Bagley, Jr.


Thursday was a significantally politico day. While Sony Studios and Brentwood's Tavern courted President Obama, the Mayor of West Hollywood, John Duran jumped right in and feted Earth Day with celebrities at Ron Robinson.


The earnest environmental activist and actor, Ed Bagley, Jr. espoused how to live green lifestyle as daily life. Fully utilizing the green carpet as a platform, he equates living the green lifestyle with living a frugal lifestyle that saves both the planet and the wallet. Being interviewed by TV Land Networks, he proudly flashed his MTA bus card, saying he gets a lot of use while saving gas and the environment using his bus card. The Environmental Media Association and Arbor Day Foundation were in full force as well.

Earth Day was also family day. It was the perfect time to launch a children's book and the accompanying stuffed toy collection, "Greenzys."


Truth be told, it was the huggable, plush stuffed, green (they have to be green) elephants, penguins, and cuddly bears that stole the show.


Once the green carpet ended, the official ceremony for Earth Day and "Greenzys," begun. The Mayor of West Hollywood, John Duran officially commenced the ceremony, honoring the author of "Greenzys," Danielle Mentzer, the toys, and the cartoon.


The story of the "Greenzys" is about creatures, from all over the globe, coming together then aiding the environment through recycling and gardening.


This is why the Bagley clan showed up. They are the "Greenzys" family ambassadors.


The legendary actress, Sally Kellerman, cradled her Greenzy. Politicans and celebrities toasted them with organic, sugar-free pink lemonade and lemon-sour, organic gummi bears before dinner.


For such a deep day, it was family-cozy and as light and sweet as the lemonade and candies.


Those huggable Greenzys have that effect on people.
