Surfline is reporting that SNL alum Will Ferrell and The Goods director Adam McKay have written and directed a new PSA in collaboration with surfer Ian O’Roarty. The two friends have teamed up for Surfrider Foundation‘s “Smoking Fish – Hold onto Your Butt”, a live action and animated short encouraging people not to throw their cigarette stubs into the sea.
O’Roarty is a surfing film icon who said: “I’ve been involved with Surfrider since 1984…however, when the Bush administration started rolling back 30 years of laws that protect our environment and basically declared a war on our natural world, I realized my greatest impact to affect environmental change lies in the media.” I think we can agree on that.
