BP Cares
Submitted by jon nelson on June 17th, 2010

I'm a bit of a Tshirt junkie. Which means I'm more likely to give money to a cause if you give me a Tshirt that says I did so. Especially if the shirt has a little pop culture mixed into it.
Have you heard of http://twitter.com/BPGlobalPR ? It was started by a guy using the alias Leroy Stick who believes that turning anger into satirical laughter is better than just being angry. If you're funny about being mad, you get a lot more attention than if you're just mad.
So, taking to social media he's been able to get a lot of eyes on the problem at hand by tweeting out little tidbits about this giant human catastrophe in a humorous way.
I'm not saying there's anything funny about this situation, it's downright the saddest thing to happen to the earth maybe ever. But I've paid more attention to this guy than I have to Obama's PR or any of the real BP PR (which smells like poo, btw) that's come out.
Here is an amazing letter to the media from Leroy Stick, the guy behind it all. In it is also a link to the BP cares Tshirt site. I encourage you to buy one and give a little to support clean up efforts.
