A while back I talked to you about using Seventh Generation products to reduce waste and take a step towards living sustainably. Well Kendra from Seventh Generation left a comment on an older post letting me know they now have a blog. They are also sponsoring a film contest with the theme being “Reducing Your Carbon Footprint.” Translated: Waste Less.
I’m thinking about entering, but I’m sure I wont get to it. But we get back to that later.
There is now another easy to buy product that will reduce your waste. Recycline offers toothbrushes, shavers and tableware. All their products are recycleable and created using recycled waste.
They can be found at Mothers, Trader Joes, and some select Targets.
Back to the film contest…
My concept goes like this:
A guy walks in the bathroom unzips and states urinating. The camera is at his back. We then cut to a shot of a glacier or other important ecological landmark and we see a giant stream of urine (simulated obviously) fall onto the the glacier. Cut to black. Then add some messaging that says something like
Global warming is real, We promise we’re not takin a piss.*
I could have come up with something really thoughtful and touching about saving smiling little whale babies, but I thought I would take a shortcut and using foul language and bathroom humor.
What do you think?
