The Best of Unconventional YouTube Activism

Have you been searching for ways to reach a huge audience with a bitsy budget? Me too, so let me know if you find something. ;) In the meantime check this out as it represents some of the best unconventional activism currently found anywhere. When you cross creativity and concern and then mix in a medium to distribute your end product you get a pretty sweet trend on YouTube (which happens to be my most favoritist website). Have a look at a few examples and then bee creative!

How about
Can Man? Now there's dedication to recycling. Oh, and this video has been seen by 1,318,559 people. That's 2,637,118 eyes! Unconvential activism is all over YouTube. Have a look at the Swiss contingent who froze their butts off (literally) while raising awareness about global warming. Think it's kind of silly? Me too, but this video has seen 1,468,000 visits!

My personal favorite:
The Bee-Boy Dance Crew - helping to raise awareness for the dwindling honey bee population.
