earth day, 2012 – music from nature by diego stocco
To celebrate Earth Day, we collaborated with composer/genius Diego Stocco to create a one-of-a-kind, all-natural musical experience. All the sounds you hear in this piece were created real-time using instruments provided by Mother Nature herself. The same ingredients that are instrumental in making the Burt’s Bees products you love to love.

It’s Earth Day, have you found your Burt yet?
Did you know that April 22nd marks the 40th anniversary of Earth Day? Well, here’s another interesting tidbit, Burt Shavitz, the co-founder of Burts Bees was there at the first Earth Day celebration 40 years ago.
It’s in this spirit that we launched “Find your Burt” for Burt’s Bees, an integrated idea that promotes solidarity in all things planet friendly. The truth is that just by doing little things every day we can all make the planet a better place to live.
The campaign consists of digital (website created in collaboration with Mekanism, SF) live events featuring ‘flocks of Burts’ spreading the word and handing out “Burt Kit” natural, reusable sample packs, human-powered bike blenders making smoothies from the natural ingredients found in Burt’s Bees skin care products. At the end of our events we compost the waste for a completely Earth friendly promotion.
The site, findyourburt.com, let’s you use your webcam to allow your inner Burt to come shining through by answering a few simple questions and playing with the Burtification tool. You can then share your image on Facebook, Twitter and through email.
Here are a few examples of the campaign video and the individual pieces in action including a closer look at the Burt Kits with the official Burt’s Bees Beard-ana:
