Check these out: "postcards" from Appalachia have been placed as ads on Washington DC Metro. The new ad campaign --from the Ohio Valley Environmental Coalition (OHVEC and at this new website, Stop Mountaintop Removal.org) -- takes the issue of visibility as its premise: if we can see/are forced to see the connections our consumption patterns have to the natural environs being consumed, we might re-envision those connections.
Another sample. (The link above has four posters.)
YES! Send me a free issue of Seed.
If I like what I see, I'll receive 5 more issues (6 in all) for just $14.95. That's 50% off the cover price! If I'm not completely satisfied, I'll simply write "cancel" on the invoice and owe nothing. The free issue is mine to keep.
