EcoAware

the problem:

My project is an on-going one that uses the far-reaching power of the Internet to connect with people and get them motivated, much like dosomething.org does. I concentrate on all types of environmental and energy issues, including providing information, photographs, and also opening up topics for discussion, all while keeping a positive outlook.

EcoAware is primarily focused on MySpace (it is much easier... and cheaper... to reach people this way). However, I have created a website for EcoAware which can be found at http://www.ecoaware.org

Most of EcoAware's activity takes place on MySpace, though. EcoAware's MySpace hub can be found at http://www.myspace.com/ecoaware

With that being said, let me post a description that is straight from EcoAware's page:

------------------------------------

Please, before you read anything else on this page, read this:

You will notice that the words "global warming" are NOT the central theme of EcoAware. While it is a problem, there are other environmental issues that aren't getting due recognition because of global warming.

Furthermore, environmentalism should not be viewed as a political position/stance. Everyone lives on planet Earth, whether they are Republican, Democrat, any other political party, or any race, gender, or religion.

While it is my personal stance and therefore the stance of this organization that global warming is real and is at least boosted by humans, global warming is not a cause for a sudden caring about the environment. Below are some other issues, but please know that the purpose of this organization is to show people that it is not too late, we can make a difference, and together, WE WILL!

The planet we live on is just that-- what we live on. You only hear about global warming now, like it's the only environmental issue. Even if you don't believe global warming is real:

-What about deforestation?

-What about the harmful effects of super-industrial agriculture?

-Does what I eat affect the environment?

-What happened to knowing the person that grows your food?

-What about landfills?

-Why are we still using oil?
