Planet Green has a new series called TOTAL WRECKLAMATION …..

When a home faces extinction, what happens to all of the materials that make up
that home?  Enter Jodi Murphy – green entrepreneur, demolition auctioneer and
force of nature.  Once a house is slated to come down or be gutted, Jodi makes
it her business – literally – to save as much of its contents and materials as
possible from ending up in the landfill.

Each year, thousands of homes are demolished and hauled off to landfills where
construction and demolition debris accounts for more than 20% of all solid waste.
In this new 13-part series, Planet Green features all types of homes – from old
to new, large to small – and highlights Jodi’s mission to save valuable items
and useable materials from being discarded.

TOTAL WRECKLAMATION opens viewers’ eyes to all that can be salvaged and provides
consumers with ideas they can use in their own homes.  Floorboards to chandeliers,
bathtubs to banisters, even stone walkways and shrubbery are given a second life
by bargain hunters who know the value of a good deal at Jodi’s auctions.  It’s
one of the few places that young homeowners can go head-to-head with a salvage
expert or antique dealer, and still come out a winner.

Jodi is the Founder and President of Chicago-based Murco Recycling Enterprises,
Inc. a small business with a big mission – to salvage, reuse and recycle materials,
fixtures and appliances before a home is demolished.  Planet Green’s cameras
follow Jodi as she pulls out all the stops to keep the energy high and the
bids flowing.  Pleading, flattery, dancing, and good-natured ribbing are all
fair game in Jodi’s rule book.  After all, what doesn’t sell will go to waste,
and for Jodi, it’s not just about the dollars, but about her small part in
making the planet a better place.  “One world.  One chance. Be Gentle” is a
credo by which Jodi and her three daughters live.  With each auction comes a
new set of challenges, colorful characters, bidding dramas — and the
opportunity to make a difference.

Planet Green’s original series, TOTAL WRECKLAMATION premieres Tuesday, September
30 at 9:30PM ET before moving to its regular timeslot on Wednesdays at 9PM ET.
