Is wind power the new black?

Lately I’ve noticed a ton of renwable energy imagery being used in advertisements. Maybe it’s a case of seeing what you’re thinking about, but I doubt it. I really think renewable energy has cachet right now. It’s forward-thinking, it’s cool. Especially the oh-so-visually-interesting wind turbines. Reminds me of the frequent use of Vespas in ads in recent years.

I’ll keep my eyes out for more and post them here if I see anything interesting.

And, naturally I have to give props to Aveda for committing to producing its products with wind power. Now before you start conjuring up images of power plants atop Aveda factories, you do need to read their fine print. From their Web site:  

Our funding of new wind turbines generates enough wind energy to offset 100% of the electricity use by our primary manufacturing facility in Minnesota, USA.

I guess that’s good…?
