I was reading in Vogue Jan. and I didn't particularly like this add. It was advertising Diesel, they make i guess you can term "hot" clothes for women. Well on the picture were 2 women, and on the ground were hundreds of birds, not just regular birds, but those colorful ones you see in the Amazon Rain Forest (dont quite know the name for them, but their colorful). And the caption was "Global Warming Ready". uahhh, i was so angry, i was like flustered, how could such a well liked brand slap the issue of Global Warming in peoples faces. I mean, when our globe has our second major Global Warming crisis, ads like those will, well, i don't know what they will do, can i get any thoughts and words?

You could write to an advertising body, complaining about the advert!

Yang...I live in the U.S., Pennslvania. Yes, it seems like I live everywhere, and in a sense my spirit is everywhere, my body will follow in my years to come.

Hi Neptune

As I don't live in the U.S, I don't really know any advertising bodies you could get in contact with.
However, why not try to google " U.S advertising bodies", and see what comes up? I am sure you will find one.

AAAA was the only thing i really found,

heres a copy of the e-mail i sent, i wanted it to be as simple as possible. No junk.

Subject A Public Advertisment

Hello,

Recently I seen a public advertisment in The January 2007 issue of Vogue Magazine Inc. which made a mockery out of the world wide crisis of Global Warming. The brand was a popular women's clothing & accesories line Diesel. The add ilustrated a physical effect of global warming with hundreds of tropical birds being in an area of which is in conflict to their natural habitat. If this controversial advertisment was exposed to environmental and conservational organizations it would make headlines.

Contact Me.

Blackburne, Jacquelle.

Good email but with my critical eye, I noticed a few spelling errors.

okay i contacted the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) too, so i'm praying with all my heart that something happens and it hopefully makes those headlines, but i would prefer not to be identified (meaning physically seen), except by name.

Thanks for the prayers.

okay so far in order i've e-mailed:
AAAA
EPA
Green House Network
Stopglobalwarming.org (committee/agency/group)

okay, i'm just going to wait now, because as i'm searching to find groups and organizations, those seem to be the only ones that would be appropriate to access for this type of warrant. Its not possible for a girl next door like me to contact the news, and you sure as hell know the governments not going to recognize my existance let alone listen.

So continue the prayers, and i'll be on my hands and knees (spiritually not literally).
