    Whats the name of that painting

    From the 70s or whenever of the Indian crying looking at all the trash? They used it for promoting the recycling program back in the day. Anyone have a link?

      In the early 1970's KAB (Keep America Beautiful) mounted a splashy new campaign aimed at making individuals responsible for cleaning up litter that was a blight on parks, playgrounds, country roads and city landscapes. The now legendary image of the Native American with a tear angling down his face caught the attention of the public, but many environmental organizations serving as advisors to KAB were offended by the "People Start Pollution, People Can Stop It" theme.
      "Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, a cola in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOOOOO HOOOOOO, what a ride!"

          For those of you to young to remember his name, it is Iron Eyes Cody. I am sure you can look it up now that you know his name.

                      I found this. Not the picture I was looking for. I remember seeing a thing on TV about him being Italian awhile back. Kinda interesting.

                          Cody wasn't a true-born Native Indian by the way.
