Birthday present ad for 40th anniversary of Greenpeace

Greenpeace is celebrating its 40th anniversary with a video, directed by Peter Thwaites (of Georgeous/Les Télécréateurs), in which various greedy corporate bigwigs literally curse the group after being defeated in some sort of environmental scuffle.

Greenpeace celebrated its anniversary in Vancouver before yesterday - 40 years to the day since the Don’t Make a Wave Committee sent a boat named Greenpeace from Vancouver to Amchitka Island, Alaska, to protest American nuclear testing there. The group subsequently adopted the name Greenpeace

9/11 Memorial: Reflect

Tomorrow will be the 10th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks against the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center in New York City and the building of Pentagon in Arlington, Virginia and when passengers attempted to take control of the fourth plane, United Airlines Flight 93, it crashed into a field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania, preventing it from reaching its intended target in Washington D.C.

Nearly 3,000 died in the attacks…

On the occasion of the event, Extra Credit Projects has created a 9/11 memorial poster (first picture) to pay tribute to the victims encouraging people to look back and reflect after 10 years.
