Freedom from Oil Flickr Contest

 

Global Exchange, Rainforest Action Network and the Ruckus Society have partnered to produce Jump Start Ford, a campaign to convince the auto industry to improve fuel efficiency and eliminate greenhouse gasses by 2020.

Part of the campaign includes a Freedom from Oil photo contest where users submit and vote for photos that deliver the Freedom from Oil message to the American auto industry.

You can upload your photo to their Flickr account, or email it to them at activism AT ran DOT org, and then vote for your favs.

Photos: Hydrogen: the Perfect Fuel, Red Bike with Odometer and SmartCar from FreedomFromOil.

Jumpstarting Ford

Hey thanks for the post! We're busy over here at Rainforest Action Network putting pressure on Ford Motor Company to get real about vehicle emissions. For 5 out of the last 6 years they have ranked dead last among the world's largest car manufacturers in vehicle emissions.  They've consistently had the worst rating by the EPA and show no signs of tryign to improve.  The broader goal here is to get automakers to realize the impact and role they have on global warming and air pollution -- 75% of harmful emissions from oil and gas come from the cars we drive everyday.  

Vote for your photo and watch it run in our ad campaign this fall!
