I liked that one, too… The rest took on the tone of a Samuel Beckett play… Seems to have finally died down, though.

Wow! I guess green LA girl readers are much more cognizant of the powers of a lil fun subversive action.

Loved some of the comments on Treehugger tho — Esp. this one: “Little boys yearn to be carbon neutral.” True! I think (hope?), at least…

Thanks for posting this, S. I've put a post up on Treehugger about it, and have been amazed at the level of vitriol in the comments... Who'd have thought a little bit of corporate activism would generate such heat...

What a good initiative! We have done a similar thing in Italy for â€œAquariusâ€, the lemon flavoured water launched recently here by Coca Cola. The company has created a website http://www.votaquarius.it in which users are invited to go and vote for one of the two Commercials (Italian called: Spot A and Spot B, realized by two different marketing agencies) in order to let consumers decree the best commercial. Our response (mine and 2 friends from Equonomia.it Ngo) has been http://www.votaaquarius.it and http://www.votacquarius.it in which we try to explain to users/consumers that water is an important resource and that every year over two million people die from diseases related to unsafe water. Our message is â€œWater is life: the World needs water NOT Lemon Juiceâ€!!
And, especially that Company marketing can’t use consumers as stupid puppets!!

Callie — Love the lung lesions ad! It looks like the app’s having a bit of trouble with apostrophes though. In any case, yes, I tots agree. I mean, I have too much time I can devote to wasting –

Was it just me or was this fun? Maybe I have too much time on my hands. Inspired by what I learned in Who Killed the Electric Car? – here’s a link to mine!
