Can breasts make dudes recycle? That's what the people at EkoKom, A Czech organization, think. Their commercial features a guy who takes his recycling out at just the right time — when he can be sure to run into his busty neighbor. Cue the close up on her cleavage as he slides his bottle into a receptacle. The tagline? "Any reason is a good reason to recycle." Hmm. (Click the picture to view the commercial.) [AdGabber]

Ha.
...well it's true!
Percy Weasley for recycling?
I do this with a neighbor and he seems to be up to same thing.
If I'm helping him recycle and walk his dog, so be it.
No problem with this. I used to take all my recycling to the plant because there was always some cute, eco-friendly boy there with his Prius. Way better than the grocery store for public pickups.
if it could get people to recycle, id totally use my rack. and have no qualms about it.
We can't help it. We're hard-wired that way.
She's proud of the tatas. He notices. He doesn't do anything other than notice. She doesn't mind the attention. Can't really fault it.
Bottle in the receptacle- subtle!
My boobs have also led to recycling. Apparently, they bounce triumphantly as I ask my boyfriend, "Can you take your stupid bottles out to the bin, love?" 34 As, ladies. Even the smallest boobs can make a big impact on the earth.
He seems harmless and she DOES have a great rack!
Having lived in the Czech Republic for a while, I can vouch for that fact that breasts (at least Czech pairs)can make dudes do ANYTHING. They're the equivalent of giving Popeye a can of spinach.
Recycling is the new online dating.
I think it's cute! I mean, they could have done without the boob close-up, but cute concept.
Starting a Cans for Cans program is going to be my contribution to the Earth.
A good rack can inspire many things. At least they are using their power for good, not evil.
That gal's old enough to be his mother, at least.
@Katxyz: hee hee
handy/interesting how they used the sweetest, most harmless looking little guy on the planet. wonder if the ad would still be cute or have the same effect with a macho dude
That's not just looking, that's fixating. That kid has a serious problem. I'm pretty sure if I were her and he did it again, I might take my recycling elsewhere. Perv.
He's cute, but the bottle thing was a little much for me.
And Al Gore went to all the effort of making a film.
Breasts can make dudes do anything. Trust.
I love that countries out side of the us see breast as both sex objects and as a means to feed babies. When I nursed my son you should have see the looks and heard the comments made to me, and I only used the "ladies room" in public. I do often dream of moving to Europe when I have my next child.
There's very little a nice rack can't make a man do.
They're literally like the hypnotizing pinwheel from old episodes of the twilight zone.
argh argh normally I don't think this would bother me that much but it comes right after the whole "using women's bodies to sell veganism" issue.
There is an ad on the side of buses in DC by McDonald's campaign that tries to make black people think McDonald's is really good for the black community because some black people own franchises, that says "Any reason is a valid reason. Vote." The tag line reminds me of this ad.
The idea behind the commercial is kinda cute, but the way he holds onto the winebottle as he sloooooowly drops it into the bin was a little gross.
I wonder how else I can put my rack to work for me. They're just sitting there freeloading right now.
::peers into blouse:: Get a job!
isn't that stalking?
Aw! He is so cute. Looka his curls!
Maybe there should be one for water conservation where a guy purposely leaves the water running when he brushes his teeth so his boxom roomate will bend over and shut it off for him. If you can't buy a Hybrid, turn off the water. You'll save the world and also see boobies.
I bet tits don't make blokes do anything, everyone just THINKS they do. And it's all a big conspiracy.
Adorable and effective! I recycle already but would do it more regularly for the chance to gaze upon this zenska...
@TheFormerJuneBronson: Ha! My tits have spent way too much time loafing about in grad school to do any real work.
I guess this is better than an "eating [a cardboard] box" visual pun, no?
When I first looked at this article in class without having seen the video, I was like "ugh." But after seeing it: I like that she's not some trampy young bimbo, she's an attractive woman in her 30's, and he seems like a cute young lad with a crush. Not as bad as I thought it would be.
@jenalicious: Same here.
Too bad I don't really have one. I'd have to painfully smash them together to get any even noticable results.
@Lymed: Can you explain this? Why does McDonald's want people to vote?
@TheFormerJuneBronson: haha, this made me snort.
Honestly, my boy is the worst with recycling. But since we've been living together, he's finally caught onto the concept. I like to attribute it to the brrrrrumsky i let him do occasionally.
@SkipToMyLou: I don't know if they actually want people to vote, or if they are just trying to use social marketing. The campaign is called 365 Black ([www.365black.com]) it's supposedly about celebrating black culture 365 days a year, and not just during Black History Month. But I think it's just a marketing strategy. I take the ad campaign to really be saying "It's ok to vote for Obama just because he's black," but I don't think it's because McDonald's wants Obama to win. The whole campaign leaves a really nasty trans fat taste in my mouth.
All new! Rape-y Recycling!
looks like they're taking promotional cues from PETA.
I wish there wasn't the close up on the chest and the sloooow bottle insertion part. It'd be really cute if it was more about him wanting to see the girl and less about her chest.
But I still kinda like it. This may be because the boy is adorable.
So, are women with huge jugs standing next to recycling bins all over the Czech Republic?
I find this tacky, the same way that I find those nude celeb PETA ads tacky. Why must women be used like pieces of meat when promoting worthy causes? It cheapens and undermines the cause.
It's insulting to men, too. Ads like this says they're too dumb to think about anything not having to do with their peens.
