Quantcast Vegetarian StarLeilani Munter “Project Green Search” Vote

Global Green USA's 6th Annual Pre-Oscar Party

Leilani Munter, professional race car driver, environmentalist and vegetarian is competing in the Project Green Search.

Voting takes place today October 12 through October 16.

The top 10 finalists go to Los Angeles November 2-8 to compete to be the next green “it girl” to advocate environment, animal welfare, fair trade and human rights.

An excerpt from Leilani’s essay at Projectgreensearch.com:

“Last year ESPN Magazine has described me as “an oxymoron: a tree hugging race car driver.” Before I was a race car driver, I was a biology graduate from the University of California in San Diego, and I am really just your typical recycling, composting, treehugging vegetarian hippie chick that just happens to drive race cars. I am an uncommon messenger in the environmental world I know, but Earl Bakken made some sense of it for me when he said…”

“By all reckoning, the bumblebee is aerodynamically unsound and shouldn’t be able to fly. Yet, the little bee gets those wings going like a turbo-jet and flies to every plant its chubby little body can land on to collect all the nectar it can hold. Bumblebees are the most persistent creatures. They don’t know they can’t fly, so they just keep buzzing around.”
