Jonas Brothers, Miley Cyrus Help Launch Disney’s Friends For Change Effort

May 15th 2009

Hot on the heels of their successful tree planting tie-in with the film EARTH, Disney is today launching a new multiplatform environmental initiative that will help kids help the planet. Called “Friends for Change“, the year-long campaign will give kids practical ways to preserve the planet, track each participant’s collective impact and have the opportunity to vote on how $1 million in donations from Disney will be divided and invested in various environmental causes over the course of a year.

As expected, Disney Channel stars are coming out in force to promote the initiative. First up are two commercials from the Jonas Brothers and Miley Cyrus. Check them out below — or visit the official site here for more information!

  7. I’m now boycotting all Disney products, movies, etc, because global warming is a hoax and a lie. Shame on the government for this. And on Disney. I cannot believe how many people can be duped into believing politicians over their own eyes, ears and other senses. It’s a shame.

  22. I LOVE YOU JOE!!!!!!!!!!!!Next time try your hair strait.

  23. To those 2 people here who deny the real evidences about climate change – what drugs are you on?

    WTF!?

    “earth has cooled .3 Celsius?”
    “Arctic ice is at 1980 levels?”
    So all the satellite images where you can actually see the ice disappearing at an alarming rate are a conspiracy? What about the majority of scientists all over the world (yes Arwen there is a world besides the USA) who have already reached the consensus that global warming is real and that it’s the result of human activities (among them the most destructive is animal industry)? Are all of them wrong?

    Maybe you’re among those who believe god created the world in 6 days and that creationist should be taught in school. And you probably think humans are superior to animals and that these are here to serve us! Maybe you believe science is a product of satan or something!!!

    I advise you to leave your cave (just for a while because the world doesn’t need the likes of you 2) and be informed before making a fool out of yourselves!!

    “duped into believing politicians over their own eyes, ears and other senses” – FYI, in my country it’s raining and it’s cold as if it was winter (global warming doesn’t mean that it will be warmer everywhere – it means that the global temperature rises but in certain areas it can become colder than before). I’m still young but I can’t recall a time when the temperature was so low during this time of year!! If this isn’t trusting my senses and realizing this is due to climate change, then I don’t know what is!!

    Maybe you should live in places like Mali.

    Then you wouldn’t write such absurdities!

    Zombies… :)

    Regarding the Jonas Brothers and Miley Cyrus it’s great they’re doing this (although I really can’t see what’s so special about the ‘brothers’ – I actually think they’re very corny, but that’s just me!)

    :)

    Why not tell kids the truth instead of forcing feel-good ideas in their heads without real and verifyable science?

    Let’s puch conservation instead ov extreme environmentalism.

  48. WHY THE WORLD IS NOT COMING TO AN END:
    1)Lightning repairs the ozone layer which prevents many of the violent sun rays that we are experiencing now.
    2)What we are going through (global warming)is a cycle.It happened during the cavemen’s time when the ice bridge melted,causing some cavemen to be on different continents,which caused them to evolve into:whites,blacks, and in-betweens.This cycle is begining again due to polution and destruction of the ozone layer.
    3)Trees only give us oxygen, and do not protect us from the sun.
    4)If you don’t believe me then you should have listened better in school or did research instead of beleiving the psychos,crazies,dramatic news reporters, and your friends who believed those ppl.
    5)If your wondering what subjects to find out about this stuff would be in science and possibly social studies.
    6)My theories to conclude about this are:
    (a)The cycle is going to reverse, causing another ice age.(b)If the cycle is starting over,it’ll be harder on us because of the destruction of the ozone layer.(c)It is possible that scientists can repair the ozone layer themselves because one molecule of the ozone is made up of 3oxygen atoms,but making too much of ozone could cause health problems.(d)It is good that ppl are trying to make a change in this world because pollution isn’t natural and Earth might start to ecologically destruct itself as a way to repair itself.
    *All of the Disney characters are fake.Who really thinks that those rich kids will get on their hands and knees when they can pay some1 else to do it for them?Well,they got ya’ll sprung,because they are using a propaganda technique.You are the ones keeping this world together,not them.They don’t need to tell you twice,because I will.YOU ARE THE ONES KEEPING THIS WORLD TOGETHER, NOT THEM.

  49. You don’t have to believe in global warming to help the environment. You can at least help out to reduce pollution. You can SEE pollution. I commend Disney for making an effort to help out and anyone who boycotts their product for the sole reason that they care about this planet is an imbisole and doesn’t deserve to breath clean air.

  50. I’m glad that friends for change is here helping save our planet. By 2050 our planet will go through 1 year of distruction if we don’t change our ways. so stop littering, turn OFF the water when your not using it and turn off electricity when your not around it and our planet will be safe
