Mr. Green Crew was all over Times Square lead by Miss Green A.K.A
Anne Gade Bjerrum, seen in the middle doing the double "E" hand sign. She is the younger sister of Mr. Green A.K.A
Christian Gade Bjerrum that is currently teaching yoga in Mexico City, while preparing the city for CO2 E - Race in 2012.
There was posters all over
Grand Central Station with the Earth Day announcement of CO2 E Drive and the Times Square fashion show of "Green Cars". The event included several aspects of
Earth Day's awareness campaigns, such as "Reduce Carbon", "Be Energy Aware" and "Travel Green".
In the above image you can see most of the GPS dots that represent the different cars are all in Times Square. The ones that did not go up to Times Square either went to Grand Central Station, back to the Solar One Building or to the premiere of "Revenge of the Electric Car" further down on 23rd Street. The interface and GPS devices was sponsored by
US Fleet Tracking and the Re-play of the painting can be seen

President for
Earth Day New York, Pamela Lippe talking to the audience at Times Square with two Mr. Green's on stage next to her, in good
Old School Public Enemy styles. It is also lovely to see that a Turkish man reaches out his hand saying "Be our Guests", welcoming America to Turkey.
The Green Car Fashion Show on the dedicated and rather colorful plaza on the Times Square that is looking more like a Amusement Park than what some might remember no longer than 15 years back, or from classic films like
Taxi Driver. In the above, the Novozymes Bio Fueled Ford Focus takes its place on the catwalk, while the MC gives a small talk about the details of the car and what it does to make Earth a better place.

Matthew Modine, who just signed up for the
next Batman film.
Times Square now also has an official "
Naked Cowgirl" that is putting up a good battle against the
"Naked Cowboy", who sued the
first Naked Cowgirl because she was not up to par.
It was an amazing day and we were lucky with the weather, with sunshine in the morning. The very next day, the city was polished by a waterfall that gives the city a special vibe with the lights reflecting in the streets. Thanks again Earth Day New York for your huge effort in help making a dream come through and help spread the projects message of Climate Awareness.
