The Green Room

“I am in the sixth grade at St. Augustine Elementary School. For Learning Fair… I chose you… as my hero… because I am amazed at what you accomplished such as how you wrote books about yourself and about nature. Also the fact that you have starred in some television shows. You have taught many people about we are doing to the environment through your books. Your effort in starting and leading the David Suzuki Foundation is impressive, especially the fact that you are an author, a television host, and a father. You have done so much work on the foundation that you have gotten many helpers and your own website. I hope that the work you have done makes a difference and we stop polluting the Earth.”

The Doc has been the face for a series of energy conservation ads aired in Ontario, Alberta, and New Brunswick (with more provinces to come!)

The latest series of ads feature Dr. Suzuki cutting a hole in the wall of a kitchen to announce that if you combined the leaks in the average Canadian home it’s the equivalent of having a basketball-sized opening in your walls.

The Royal Canadian Air Farce took the idea and ran with it.

And here’s the original ad.
