    • well drew. i belive we boath are in agreement with what shes trying to do here. takeing the message directly to the street in the foarm of a t-shirt with huge letters on the front,thats an awsom way to reminde people of there duty as a stewert of the earth .i think this concept should catch on in america..if youve ever watched the j walk on the tonight show yould be extreamly sad at how little the average american thinks about anything deeper then there own wants and needs .especialy when there wants and needs are directly conected to the big picture.they just donte realize it yet.the t-shirts would help reminde them of this fact, and might possibly encourage them to vote for a canadate that would bring us all closer to these goals.

    • Whilst I very much applaud the cause, I am stunned that someone can be employed or praised for "designing" black text on white t-shirts..

      Whatever it takes I guess.

      i hear what you're saying, well actually i read what you're saying (in black type on my white screen, i should add =) ). I think you're right, but, and this is just my opinion, i feel that the simple design is crucial if you want someone walking by to instantly get the message you're putting out there.
      She's been praised for her designs in the past, now i feel she's being praised for the concept, and her plan to help out the planet.
      thanks for your comment. The truth probably lies somewhere between what you're saying and what i'm saying. let me know what you think?
      peace

    • this is what every one in the united states needs to be pushing is the solar power,wind power and any type of clean energy sorce we can .solar power doesnt have to replace other sorces of power on its own.its the menny difrent typs of new green sorces of power put to gather to make a whole.i think europe is ahead of us on this ,like the miles of soler panels that line the road side on the autobon .this is a verry news worthy pod.
