Angry feminists usually get the eye roll. But what about angry green girls? Seems like they're getting plenty of attention - or at least this particular spokesperson for green issues. Basically, Angry Green Girl knows how to use her hotness for getting attention, but for a good green cause. From hybrid-only bikini car washes to nearly naked shower tips, check out how Angry Green Girl broadens the eco-issue umbrella through her sarcasm-laden eco-tips. Water issues have never looked quite like this.
Scathing sarcasm and sex. Think it works? Does that "anger" play out here in some new effective way? Weelllll.... In terms of site traffic, apparently so. The AngryGreenGirl website is a whole network of women like this - "hot, green and shameless," that is - working to spread the word about green issues...and they're getting thousands upon thousands of page views.
In fact, according to Gas2.0, "[I]n less than a week since [Sophia "the Angry Green Girl"] site's launch, her marketing efforts have produced tens of thousands of search results, and landed her site on such heavily-hitting news sources as auto 'fashionista' site Jalopnik, AOL's Autoblog, and more, including spots on NBC Los Angeles that got picked up on internet sites around the world."
While we're certain a lot of the viewers are there to see something other than which low-flow shower head to use, there's still got to be some amount of green awareness being picked up - especially if the visitors happen to get rejected based on their gas-guzzling choice of transportation:
Admittedly, getting someone to wonder if they'll only score a date if they go green is (possibly) an effective way to push eco-issues mainstream. We'll see for sure once the novelty wears off.
