Mr. Eco Environmental Rap Superhero

There is something so very nostalgic about Satruday morning cartoons.  Waking up to watch animated characters battle great mythical enemies is the perfect relaxation after aa busy week.  This Sayruday, however, I came across something a little different...Mr. Eco

Mr. Eco, or Brett Edwards, is a California native that uses the power of music to encourage kids to become Eco heroes.  Decked out in a yellow t-shirts and green cape he spreads information one lyric at a time.  The character of Mr. Eco is a rapping superhero that sings about different environmental issues and the ways that we can help.  Mr. Eco has performed for over 16,000 students across the state of California.  He also records his environmentally aware songs to be played on school radios throughout the state as well as on the internet.  It may not be the traditional approach to environmental education but it sure is turning heads...
