"Why are we being forced to choose between the economy and the environment? We tend to forget that without an environment we would not have an economy, as everything we consume and I mean everything comes from our environment."
~ Franke James (contemporary artist, photographer, writer)
Beijing's landfills are getting full fast! Reduce the "trash" you throw away by purchasing products with minimal packaging. Look for reusable, recyclable, and biodegrable items and remember to carry your reusable shopping bags!
Hello Artists,
I am writing to let you know that 350.org has launched a Poster Contest to help spread the word about the Moving Planet Global Day of Climate Action, coming up on September 24th.
The world is gaining momentum! All over the world people will be gathering in their communities and moving themselves towards a clean energy future, and showing our politicians that its time for them to move on energy, or move over.
We are calling on your creative minds to help communicate the urgent need for collective action on climate. We'll be putting the top 10 posters onto the Huffington Post, where the world will vote for the best three. Those posters will then get made available to our global network of 500,000.
We need artists like you to help inspire the world to action. It always starts with culture...
Visualize change,
Kevin Buckland
