Coo Coo for climate change! (AKA people doing crazy things to get your attention)

It could happen to you. You might just wake up one morning, and find a photo of a bunch of naked french people posing for photographer Spencer Tunick in the name of climate change.

That's what happened to me yesterday, and so I thought fine...I'll give in and do a post that celebrates just a few of the fabulous people out there willing to go the extra mile to raise attention for climate change.

Lets begin with No Impact Man, who, btw, gave me a hard time for calling his initiative of living off the grid a little crazy...


I went to Twitter for some inspiration...and @DaveBurdick pointed me to this awesome (and crazy) trend of people moving (their houses) via bike.

@enviroknow pointed me to this link about more naked people for climate change:
The very-active Avaaz Action Factory was in rare form recently when they showed up for a naked protest in front of the offices of DC's Astroturf King, Bonner and Associates. The point of their action was to not only get a nice shower but to drive home the point that Bonner and Associates is a naked fraud.



And last but not least, life wouldn't be complete if you haven't heard of David de Rothschild's plastic bottle voyage across the Pacific to raise awareness about ocean pollution.

Do you have examples of people going...over board..in the name of raising people's awareness about climate issues? Do tell! (After all, they are some of our favorite stories...)
