Brad Pitt did indeed appear at the Clinton Global Initiative in New York City today to discuss all that has been going on with the Make It Right campaign. He talked about the houses that have already been built and the ones that are going to be built. And check this little piece of information out:
The average electric bill for one of the energy-efficient homes built in New Orleans by Brad Pitt’s Make It Right foundation is $35 a month.
Can you imagine?! Only $35 a month?! We’re pretty careful about the energy we use in our house, and we still hit at least $75 a month, and definitely over that in the summer months when we need to run the air conditioner. And apparently it’s even getting cheaper to build the houses as they’re building them, proving to Brad that there’s no reason why we can’t all build homes like those that are being built in New Orleans.
“I don’t know how we build any other way anywhere else,” he said. “We can no longer tell ourselves that implementing this technology is too complex a problem because it’s just been proven on this little spot on the map.”
And not only did Brad update everyone on the homes, he accepted a honor from the US Green Building Council for constructing the largest community of green homes in the world – that’s some honor!
I may not love Brad’s goatee as shaggy as it is, but I definitely love all of the amazing things that he and Angelina do for the world.
good job brad,i really admire what he and angie is doing to the world.God bless you and your family
his award is something that he should be proud of and i truly believe that he deserves it. congrats Brad!
Congratulations for Brad for that award. He and Angie are going good things for the world. Angie sure is proud of her man. And Brad himself sure was honored to get this award. Maybe it was a complete surprise to him. God bless both Brad and Angie and their beautiful family!
Brad is doing a great job in NO and he sure deserves this honor!!!Congratulations for Brad!!!Angie must be very,very proud for her man!!!
Thanks for the news and the pics,Randi!!!Brad looks H O T in a suit!!!
stratoula – I sooo agree with you! Brad looks really H O T in that suit. Even the horrible beard doesn´t look so disturbing in these pics because he looks really good otherwise. Angie sure is very proud of her man and sure was disappointed that she couldn´t be there in NY with Brad and Mad. The father-son duo sure had a blast in NYC together. Hopefully they already are back with the rest of the family or flying back early tomorrow (Sept. 26).
It is so interesting how the Jolie-Pitts care so much for others. They are not just making a ton of money, but donate a whole lot of it. Both of them were meant to be together. They in turn will raise their children to help out the less fortuate.
