H2O Challenged?
"Water, water everywhere, but not a drop to drink!" Water has risen to become a deeper problem than we realize. Not only are the seas rising from climate change, but the growing demands for fresh water are not sinking to new lows, but exceeding our supplies. H2O Challenged are we? Quite frankly - YES! This rap will have you running to the tap! The jigs up America - CONSERVE!
The World of Nations Celebration is over, but JAXTA teens are still hard at work putting together the mural pieces that were added by many attendees over the three days. Thanks to all the artists who expressed their thoughts on prejudice through art. And talk about action! The documentary we taped over the course of the event is now in its editing phase and thanks to all who used their voices for change. Thank you to all who helped make our booth a tremendous success! Please check out our pictures from the weekend at flickr.
The results ARE IN for the St. John Riverkeepr PSA Contest so bookmark this page and keep coming back for the announcement.

Get Outta My Face
Ten teens from Oregon are making a difference by telling the story of advergaming and junk food ads that target youth. They're tired of the kids of the US being the fattest and most unfit generation ever. Many "Big Industries" target teens 24/7 by advertising foods, beverages and lifestyles that set them up to continue along this path. These teens are sick of sitting around being victims of their "go for big profit" tactics. We applaud their efforts! Check them out!
