Cindy Crawford Saves the Environment One $20 Water Bottle at a Time

It’s not quite champagne wishes or caviar dreams, but supermodel-turned-mommy Cindy Crawford is now offering tips on how to live a more environmentally conscious life.

Crawford appeared on ABC’s May 7 “Good Morning America” to share with viewers something “a little less red carpet, a little more green” – her “eco-awakening.”

“I mean, we’ve all have seen the Al Gore movie and green is on, it’s on top of the mind for everybody,” Crawford said. “But, it is overwhelming. I have a very full life as well, so it’s like ‘Oh, I can’t compost my own stuff.’”

“But my kids go to a school in Malibu and it’s super-environmentally conscious,” Crawford said. “We do beach clean ups, try to use less plastic as a school. And so, that kind of made me think what can I do? And, I teamed up with PUR, which is a water filtration company. They do the things you can attach to your faucets, as well as those pitchers and we came up with a reusable water bottle.”

LOL!
No one gets the irony that you have a woman who’s body evidently has been through childbirth-— and she wears it proudly (as she should)....

On a site that is supposedly pro- babies, mama’s life etc....

IOW,
her body is what all conservatives should hold up as ideal female form...lifegiving.

In a decent bathing suit, she would look just fine, in a 40-ish way.

I too drink water out of the tap, unless I’m visiting my step-mother (the water where she lives is simply horrible).

What a minute...I’ve been refilling water bottles until I decide to toss them for years. Have I been doing something amiss here? No big endorsement from the water company...just damn...but then again I don’t have Cindy’s figure either. [sigh]

I have absolutely no problem with the way she looks. None.

My post was an effort to make those who post the glossed up old photos of women like CC, that the reality is different. Real women don't look like the photo in post #7.

Very funny Crawford!...You are just another “guilty rich” hollywood lefty trying to ease your mind over how filthy rich you got doing nothing.

Cindy does have brains. She has a degree in electrical engineering. She should know better, then.

Someone coached her to sound stupid?

That's funny! But no, what I meant to say is she is such a rock-hard, bottom-of-the-barrel imbecile, that when coached, she sounds just stupid.

That doesn’t speak well for the person coaching her either.
