Copyright? Animals can have that too.

Noah Express - Threadless, Best T-shirts Ever

Have you heard of "Animal Copyright Foundation"? This is a nonprofit organization launched by Gregory Colbert in 2006 to help preserve species and habitats around the world.



Advertisers who use animals in their publicity campaign are encouraged to contribute 1% of their media buy directly to conservation projects around the world recommended by the foundation or one of their preference. If they comply with the Animal Copyright Foundation standards they can display the Animal Copyright symbol on their advertising media and have their companies listed on its website as supporters of conservation.

Sadly, at this time of writing, the only contribution listed is Gregory Colbert's through his Ashes and Snow Exhibition, presenting images of human and animals interacting with one another. I hope someone will write to tell me that I have the website address wrong or that it has not been updated.

Gregory Colbert is also offering grants through his "The Flying Elephants Foundation" to support individuals who are working to benefit the environment through the arts and sciences.

I wish him success in all his green endeavours.

No recycling bins? Stop complaining.

Are you complaining that there are no recycling bins in your neighbourhood? Do you know that you can do something about it? If you are able to find a suitable venue in your neighbourhood, then this is what you have to do if you live in Malaysia.

If you are living in America, you are in luck. The Coca-Cola/NRC Recycling Bin Grant Program is on to promote and support community recycling in the U.S for the collection of beverage container recyclables. Just send in your on-line submission by Friday, October 26, 2007 and if you are selected you will get:

1) Recycle bins of your choice
2) Expertise on how to set up recycling programs from the National Recycling Coalition

Where can you install the recycling bins? Just think

1) Sporting events
2) Music venues
3) Schools
4) Commercial locations
5) Non profit organizations
6) Government buildings
