Woodruff to Anchor Weekly Eco-Newscast

ABC News anchor Bob Woodruff will anchor a weekly series for the new Planet Green channel. The show premieres in July, and will be an eco-newscast focusing on subjects ranging from climate impact to political debate.

The program will be produced by ABC News for Planet Green and will include ABC’s news resources from around the world. “This is controversial and also complicated information that needs to be talked about more,” said Woodruff in the article.

Planet Green launches on June 4 as a 24-hour eco-lifestyle channel.

> Update: From a commenter: “Planet Green will not be a NEW channel in reality, as Discovery Networks is simply rebranding the current ‘Discovery Home’ channel with a new name.”
