I'm not saying that I happened upon, and then proceeded to watch, half of the truly classy Freakiest Concert Moments of All Time on VH1 last night. But if I had, I would have been delighted to see our favorite eco-porn activists in the top slot. Yes, Tommy and Leona's on-stage antics were #1 on the list -- and better yet, Grist's Norwegian Wood head and subhead were woven into the story's graphics. Score!

There are worse ways to save the world ...

... like greenwashing bottled water.

How about some nekkid beach protests of this idea to drill offshore.  It could turn into a trend!

Imagine the media coverage.  Maybe some mollases could be used to simulate oily bodies?

And

Some nice bird, seal, and sea otter masks to allow the famous and not so famous anonymity in the protest.  The tabloid guessing around tatoos and deformities to ID the famous would drive media coverage.

And highlight the animals.  Get on it you eco-porn activists.
