Urban Conversion

Urban Conversion balances the buzzwords of the sustainability movement with the realities of today’s “green scene.” Host Rodman Schley, a conservative businessman, made his way in life thinking “bigger is better.” His wife and co-host Gina Schley, on the other hand, believes simplicity and sustainability hold the key to a better lifestyle for their family and a brighter future for their children. While Rodman prefers fast-paced city life, Gina wants to move the family to a rural farm setting. The compromise? Rodman and Gina dive head-first into the sustainability movement to see how they can make their urban lifestyle more eco-friendly. Education and entertainment go hand-in-hand on Urban Conversion as Rodman meets Gina half way and learns to embrace backyard beekeeping and chicken-raising, alternative fuels, community-run gardens, home brewing and more.
