Believe it or not this blog truly was kick started because of the monstrous accident in the Gulf of Mexico. I, like many others, are starstruck and not in the good way! over the currently unstoppable oil flooding into our ecosystem. I NEED to do my part to help with this tragedy. So I started A.C.E. – Artists for a Clean Earth.

I will talk about it on air during my Art In Action show (Every Wednesday from 12-1pm EST) and help do what I can by banding artists together to bring awareness, funding, contributions, etc to helping clean up and resolve this mess and hopefully prevent this from ever happening again. If you are interested in becoming a member of A.C.E. – contact me at (707) 87-ROBIN and we can start working together today. Here is a very short list of links to sites and organizations already doing something about this – more links are coming soon. ~ Robin Ann
