5/7 - Putting His Money Where His Chest Hair... Isn't
|
I had heard about this last week, but our crack research staff was a little too busy putting up pictures of felines who look like Wilford Brimley and just got to this little gem today. And seeing as the new Indiana Jones movie opens later this month, I figured, what the heck. Here's the story:
Celebrities have their own quirky ways to convince people to go green, but Harrison Ford's just might go down as the weirdest. The longtime environmental campaigner had his chest waxed to show the pain involved in deforestation. As vice chairman of the group Conservation International, Ford found it fitting to subject himself to the "beauty" treatment to raise awareness about the conversion of global forested areas.

Hey, I'm all for going green, but I think I'll stick to riding my bike more, and replacing those old incandescent bulbs with those snappy compact flourescent ones before I sign up for this one. Way to take one for the team, though...
