WINNETKA, CA, April 22, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- It started in 1970 with Sen. Gaylord Nelson with an environmental teach-in and is held annually across the globe on April 22. It's Earth Day and today it is observed in 175 countries and, according to the Earth Day Network, is the largest secular holiday in the world and is celebrated by more than a half-billion people every year. And StinksNThings.com, the premiere online destination for discount gag gifts, pranks and more, is observing Earth Day this year as the greenest gag gift retailer online.
To start, StinksNThings uses solar-powered servers from AISO.net to host the site. Using carbon-free energy the solar-powered servers reduce the demand for energy and runs on power directly from the sun. Just think, as happy pranksters click from Extending Fork ($4.99) to Shocking Hand Buzzers ($2.49), they're actually taking advantage of the power of the sun!
Stinks also helps the planet by using biodegradable packing materials and shipping all orders in boxes constructed of 100 percent recycled materials. Who knew that Fake Poop like Stinks' Party Pooper ($2.49) -- which also is biodegradable -- can arrive on your doorstep in recycled materials?!
All receipt orders and office stationary at Stinks' headquarters also is 100 percent recycled as well. "Stinky" Steven Stenakowski, Stinks' resident Fart Master, keeps track of all his stinky pranks in a binder constructed of recycled materials.
"I won't put my Poo Pen ($2.49) to any paper that isn't 100 percent recycled," the King Stinker said.
StinksNThings.com's owner, Susan McKenna, agrees that it's important -- even when planning pranks and plotting office humor and practical jokes -- to be aware of the environment.
"Poop is 100 percent biodegradable, and farts, while stinky, don't deplete the ozone layer," she said, inspiring Stinky Steven to make a note on his Dog Poop Calendar (now on sale, $5.50).
"Thanks, Susan, for the great idea -- Earth Day is Fart Day at StinksNThings!" he exclaimed. "I'm going to plot a Fart Marathon to observe Earth Day: Fart Bags (99 cents), Liquid Ass ($5.99), Fart Powder ($2.49) -- it's going to be a 100 percent environmentally prank-friendly Earth Day for me!"
"There you have it, Stinky Steven not only leads with pranks by example, but he also serves as a leader for climate change and going green -- with pranks, too," McKenna said. "He really has a clever mind for pranks and the environment."
So from what started out as one man's grassroots call to take better care of the environment to a day that is widely celebrated across the globe, StinksNThings.com continues to celebrate and observe Earth Day with its solar-powered servers, recycled boxes and office supplies and biodegradable Fake Poop.
Stinks even has you covered should you opt for a Green Prank this April 22 with fart humor that won't deplete the ozone layer but may leave a stench trail behind. So make your mark this Earth Day -- prank your pals with all the fake jokes they can tolerate, just don't leave your footprint on the Earth as you do it.
