Les Amis de la Terre will be launching their 2012 Pinocchio Prizes very shortly - probably tomorrow - am awaiting confirmation. I've been helping with the translations (as a volunteer) and have found the subjects fascinating.

As you can imagine from the name it's all to do with telling 'fibs', and nine major French companies are the nominees.

For those interested in environmental and ecological matters its worth taking a look and perhaps casting a vote. www.prix-pinocchio.org

Have a nice day all. ▲ Collapse

Voting is Underway Oct 18, 2012

This year's voting is now underway. Apparently les Amis had a few technical hitches with the web site so it was delayed until this morning.

Do have a look, and please vote if the subjects interest you.

The site is in French and English.
