Hi there all you eco-warriors!
I’d like to take this opportunity to mention a Greenpeace competition that I feel really deserves all of our attentions. The basic idea is to rebrand the BP logo. Yes the company responsible for the atrocious oil spill we are seeing all over the media.
Here is a quick rundown about the spill and the Greenpeace competition itself.
The world has been hit with so many human atrocities in regards to pollution that it’s honestly hard to keep up these days. In recent weeks the story of stories has been about the “epic fail” of the immense oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico by a BP rig.
The Deepwater Horizon spill has been seen as the worst man-influenced ecological disaster ever, or at least the biggest off-shore spill in US history.
Now that I serious stuff boys and girls!
The worst thing about the Deepwater Horizon spill is that very little has been done by the US government to contain the spill. Although actions have recently been taken by getting robots to cut holes in the pipe in order to install a cap, this was all done way, way, waaaaay too late to make a difference. The amount of oil that has spewed forth has made a terrible mess for the environment and has killed hundreds of birds and turtles. This only the beginning of what could be a ripple effect that will last throughout our lifetime and even our children’s childrens life times.
Green Peace, who is always on the frontlines of all major ecological disasters across the globe, launched a Greenpeace competition to not only raise awareness for the disaster, but also to poke fun at BP for their monumental stuff up.
Basically all you need to do is get your creative juices flowing and come up with a really appropriate rebranding concept for the BP logo.
There are some freaking awesome submissions so far. People are really giving it their all to stick it to these BP dumbasses.
If you would like to know more, why not check out the Greenpeace competition page and see if you can get involved.
GoGo Greenpeace!
