Link Dump

There is a part of Edinburgh that I go through every morning where I have noticed several advertising hoardings that have been defaced. These things happen, I guess.

 

Only after a couple of days did I notice that the slogans daubed in paint on the adverts were 'Green Graffiti'. I have seen the Bank of Scotland, Scottish Gas, a car manufacturer and several others targeted.

 

The slogans are things like "Buy green cars. Save the Environment". Scottish Gas' advertised claim of "A green energy producer" was challenged by suggesting that the claim was a con.

 

They were kind enough to leave a Cancer charity alone.

 

I'm  not sure what I think of such vandalism - on one level it is totally wrong, but on another it shows someone with a strong set of morals - maybe just a new way of communicating these morals?

 

What do you think?
