(the company itself I think needs to smooth over a few crinkles.. like having a guy jumping out of a plane in one of its Climate Calender pics!)

An important and often over-looked way of doing PR for the planet, it seems to me, is to appeal to our innate, and inspiring, awe for nature, instead of using purely fear/guilt mongering tactics (though I think these have their place too!).
