The commercials are doubly good. They remind people of their environmental impact and they help demonstrate that a major company can make a switch like this and profit from it (from good PR, et cetera).

British Petroleum, an oil company which has gone green and expanded its scope into sustainable energy. Isn't this what us tree huggers have been praying for for decades?

cosmetics company, to solicit videomakers to profile women whom they
know who are "women of worth." ( http://www.current.tv/studio/create/

feels about an ad campagin sponsored by a cosmetics company to
profile women who are working to improve the world they live in?
Obviously a series of PSA's giving these women credit for the work
they are doing would be a good thing, but, is the fact that this
thing is being underwritten by a cosmetics company and considered an
advertisement by Current diminish the redeeming quality the project
might otherwise have?
What do you think?
