Comedy Central wants to teach you easy ways to reduce waste and help revive the planet! Through their on-air and online ‘Address the Mess’ campaign, Comedy Central is helping viewers reduce their carbon footprint. And on Sunday, November 9th, from 10am-4pm as Address the Mess takes over the WEST part of Union Square between E 15 & E 16th Street to help New Yorkers properly recycle their old appliances. With the support of the Lower East Side Ecology Center and the NYC Department of Parks & Recreation, Address the Mess plans to raise awareness around the environmental crisis and collect all the unwanted e-ware gathering dust in your homes. By coming to this event participants have the chance to win two front row tickets to Brian Regan’s performance at the New York Comedy Festival.
