"Riding a wave of support to clean up the ocean; Startup is turning old fishing nets into skateboards" by Lauren Daley | Globe Correspondent April 28, 2014
Bureo Skateboards received a $40,000 grant from Start-Up Chile, a government-sponsored program to incubate new businesses, after submitting an application that included a letter of recommendation from Patagonia, the eco-conscious outdoor company named after the wild region at the southern end of South America....
In March cofounders Ben Kneppers, David Stover, and Kevin Ahearn scored a marketing moment when musician Jack Johnson, an avid surfer and environmentalist, jumped on one of their surfboards in front of the news media after a concert in Santiago.
They also briefly returned home in April, making a circuit through Boston that included stops at the New England Aquarium and local colleges to discuss their environmental business, and in New York, where they appeared at an Earth Day festival in Manhattan....
So what did they do, surf or skate?
Please don't tell me they flew to the Earth Day festival.
--more--"
That's one hell of a kick$tart.
Oh, I almost forgot the side dishes.
Time for me to go get my lunch. I'll be back afterward with more classes.
UPDATE: Creative recycling: Save the oceans with skateboards
Since they busted the drug dealer up the street those kids haven't been hanging around as much.
