Have you ever wanted to make a video that could change the world?
Imagine your message about the climate crisis being judged by Academy Award winners and an exec from one of the hottest ad agencies in the world, played on international TV, and inspiring millions of people around the globe. The chance is yours! Building on the momentum of Live Earth, the Alliance for Climate Protection has teamed up with Current TV to give your talent a worldwide audience on the most important issue facing the planet. And oh yeah, we're also giving away a hybrid car.
The premise is simple: create the best 15, 30, or 60-second Ecospot ad showcasing how you or someone you know is taking action to solve the climate crisis -- or create an original, persuasive message that will open eyes, inspire change and empower your audience.
Get the details and create your ad by visiting:http://whatcounts.com/t?r=1502&c=984813&l=42058&ctl=185BEAE:0EFF5D065C06C3C8F9DA8675B204E8C7FDF24EE4C9629B8B

After you submit your ad, our panel of celebrity judges will narrow the field to 20 finalists. I am proud to be among the judges, who include actors George Clooney, Orlando Bloom, and Cameron Diaz, Oscar winning director Sam Mendes, and ad agency exec Alex Bogusky. Once the field is narrowed, you, your friends and thousands of others will pick the winner through an online vote. The top ads will be aired internationally on Current TV, featured in the Alliance's national campaign, and showcased on MySpace's Impact channel.
The grand-prize winner will receive a Toyota hybrid car, while three finalists will win Sony electronic products, and 16 semi-finalists will receive T-Mobile Sidekicks.
The Alliance for Climate Protection was formed with you in mind. Individuals have the power to make the difference and it begins with your story. We want your ad to be part of the Alliance's global campaign to solve the climate crisis.
We look forward to watching your Ecospot!
Best,

12/11 Dear Friend,

In less than forty-eight hours, I will step on stage at the UN Climate Conference in Bali. With me I will bring hundreds of thousands of messages demanding a visionary global treaty be completed and brought into effect by 2010.

If we want to solve the climate crisis, we need to demonstrate the broad public support for action together. That's why it is vital you sign our petition right now by visiting:

Over the past few months we've taken many positive steps towards uniting governments worldwide around the goal of solving the climate crisis. Just over a week ago on December 3rd, Australia's new Prime Minister Kevin Rudd was sworn in. His first formal act in office was to ratify the Kyoto Treaty. This was a clear demonstration of Australia’s priorities.

Yet this progress has not swayed the Bush Administration. With thousands of delegates gathered in Bali for the UN Climate Conference, this is our last chance in 2007 to show the world how serious the American people are about ending the climate crisis. That's why it is so vital all of us join together and demonstrate the political will of our country.

Only two days remain before I deliver your messages to the delegates meeting in Bali. Over the past few days more than 174,612 people have added their voices. Don't miss this incredible opportunity to demonstrate your support for a visionary global treaty to end the climate crisis.
Sign our petition, then reach out to everyone you know and ask them to sign today by visiting:

Your activism and enthusiasm for this cause inspires me every day.
Thank you,
Al Gore

Last week, our founder and chairman Al Gore was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for his tireless efforts to help solve the global climate crisis. But he's not working alone -- millions of people across the country and around the world know that climate change is a critical issue that we need to act on, and now.

You can do your part today by urging your friends and family to join the movement. By joining with the Alliance for Climate Protection and its founder Al Gore, we strengthen the global commitment to harnessing solutions to the climate crisis. Our increasing numbers will demonstrate to leaders in every time zone and on every continent that halting climate change is a top priority.

Mr Gore said it best: "We face a true planetary emergency. The climate crisis is not a political issue, it is a moral and spiritual challenge to all of humanity. It is also our greatest opportunity to lift global consciousness to a higher level."

Please help today by clicking here to tell your friends to get involved and join the campaign to solve the climate crisis..

The solutions are within reach. Together, we can solve this.

Sincerely,

Cathy Zoi
CEO
