  • Emily Osment ("Hannah Montana"): "Use energy-saving light bulbs."
  • Maiara Walsh ("Cory in the House"): "Recycle everything from newspaper to aluminum cans."

GREEN MATTERS: We are the change we’ve been waiting for!

PURPOSE: The “Green Matters” event is a grassroots organized one-day mass donation with the sole purpose of bringing the ENVIRONMENT into the forefront of the 2008 Presidential race.

HOW IT WORKS: The “mainstream media” has proven in this election cycle that they will cover how much money the Presidential candidates can, or have raised. Therefore, a massive donation organized around environmental issues, by individuals concerned with the state of the planet, and on a nationally celebrated day of environmental awareness (Earth Day) will penetrate the national dialogue, once again moving the environment to the forefront of Presidential politics.

WHO BENEFITS: Everyone benefits when our environmental issues are discussed on a national stage, therefore anyone concerned about the future of our planet is encouraged to participate in this event regardless of race, age, gender, or political affiliation. However, this event has been organized by independent grassroots supporters of Barack Obama and all donations benefit the Obama campaign. As President, Barack Obama will reduce carbon emissions, encourage developments in clean energy, support next generation biofuels, work to gain oil independence, improve energy efficiency in buildings and restore U.S. leadership on climate change.

By making the Green Matters pledge, you will receive an e-mail reminder the day of donation, Earth Day – April 22nd, 2008.

You are the change the Earth’s been waiting for…make the pledge now at www.envirobama.com/greenmatters and on Earth Day 2008 tell the world that Green Matters!

Visit www.envirobama.com for in-depth discussion about Barack Obama’s environmental record and policy proposals.

W0oP, Go Green!!! xD
