To save energy, Chilean men told not to wear ties...

Chile's government wants men in the South American country to take off their ties to help fight global warming, hoping the campaign will save on air conditioning as summer starts in the southern hemisphere.

"Let's all take our ties off this summer to save energy," Economy Minister Pablo Longueira says in television spots airing around the country.

In the commercial, he undoes the knot of his pink and white tie and whips it off with gusto, unbuttoning the top of his shirt and smiling. A tie-less energy minister and other senior government officials also appear in the TV spot. Full story...

Don't miss:
  1. Pee in the shower, save the rain-forest!!!
  2. No more suits and ties in Bangladesh in order to save electricity...
  3. Indonesia's vanishing tigers, vanishing rain forests...
  4. Stop eating meat to ‘save the planet’? Burger off!
  5. Earth Hour, a despicable hoax...
  6. I bought a rainforest...
  7. Becoming vegetarian to save the environment? Think again...
