Celebs pose for calendar to build environmental awareness

Elena Roger, the face of clean energy

Photographer Gaby Herbstein and the Azara Foundation teamed up to present ‘Huella Ecológica‘ (Ecological Footprint), a calendar where several celebrities were photographed in order to denounce the critical environmental situation of our planet.

Ricardo Darin, Alessandra Rampolla, Luciana Salazar, Ronnie Arias, Carla Peterson, Gonzalo Valenzuela and Dante Spinetta, were some of the artists representing global warming, water pollution and air pollution, loss of forests and the advance of deserts, overfishing, the rise of the oceans, species extinction, excesive consumption, diseases and depletion of drinking water.

The initiative of the Azara Foundation (Maimonides University) will continue during 2010 with several actions such as a television add, popular books, street campaigns, conferences, traveling exhibitions and presence in social networks.

The calendar and the campaign’s T-shirts can purchased through the website www.vitnik.com and all the money rised will be destined to the work of the foundation.
