Thinking & Feeling

Ethical Consciousness

After my recent rant, Richard has pointed out the following worthy causes by aware and concerned people in the public eye.

Sarah McLachlan chose to spend the +-$150 000(USD) it would have cost to shoot a fancy music video for her song World on Fire on more chartable and worthy causes, and spent only $ 15 on the video itself. Here's what the money was used for instead.

And Chris Martin of Cold Play supports the Make Trade Fair Campaign, as seen here during the Glastonbury festival.

I also found the following articles:
Celebrities Launching Campaign to Fight Global Warming
Celebs turn the spotlight on global warming
Celebrities are Hot on Global Warming

and of course we all know about the long standing and ongoing work of people like Angelina Jolie, Bono and Sting.

Big up to them!

Here's a wonderful website full of info, suggestions and resources. Take a look!
ONE DEGREE: Climate Change, Global Warming and Environmental Resources.
