Actor to visit Lassen's
Begley
Long known as much for his environmental activism as his acting, Ed Begley Jr. is coming to Ventura to show how to live greener.
The star of HGTV's "Living With Ed" will be at Lassen's Natural Foods store at 1 p.m. Thursday to demonstrate products from his green home-cleaning line, Begley's Best. Lassen's is at 4071 E. Main St.
Begley, recently referred to in Time magazine as "the star of climate change in Hollywood," has spent three decades "enduring mockery," the magazine said, "for doing things that don't seem quite so stupid now."
Begley, turning up regularly to Hollywood events on a bicycle, says he can and would like to teach us all to live green.
