We just launched our latest campaign, “Pixels not Paper™” to raise awareness about the urgent need to cut back on paper consumption. As part of the message we want to educate people about the very real environmental and economic costs of excessive paper use and the equally important benefits of tree conservation. Check out the video and resources available online.

“Pixels not Paper” is a practical solution that will make sure that people know that reducing what they use is as valuable as recycling everything we can.

We’ve gathered a team of industry professional designers, engineers, sustainability specialists and volunteers to help develop and spread the message that: “killing trees for unnecessary printing is, quite plainly, a major and avoidable waste waste”.

Calling all programmers! We’re in the process of developing a new campaign to raise awareness of global conservation. The campaign will all run online and include various rich media applications.

We’re looking for a programmer willing to invest a couple of hours to develop a script or edit an open source script to execute an action within a site when someone clicks on a link.

We’ll discuss the details of compensation / exchange for those interested.

This project is full of potential and momentum but requires the right person with the skills and dedication to reap the benefits. Email us for more information.

MIAMI, Fla. — When you see a penny on the sidewalk, do you stop to pick it up?

Most of us would just walk by, but those pennies can add up.

A million pennies are equal to ten thousand dollars, and that is what ‘Pumped for Change’ hopes to collect with its Million Penny Project.

Wednesday morning, the non-profit organization unveiled a piece of art being displayed at a bus stop in front of the American Airlines Arena that is entirely made of pennies.

Some are shiny, new pennies, others dark, old pennies.

The 1600 pennies used in the artwork are arranged by color in a way that shows two hands coming together, a symbol ‘Pumped for Change’ hopes will inspire people to give.

‘Pumped for Change’ will spread the wealth, giving the money it raises to local charities like Camillus House and the Community Partnership for Homeless.

While the charity welcomes even the smallest donations, pennies, they hare also eager to accept bills.

Special Thanks to Bristol P.R. for all their help.
