10:10 Campaign
The Polar Bears - Bui Bolg’s cuddliest creations, are the new faces of the 10:10 campaign, to reduce emissions by 10% in 2010. The Polar Bears helped launch the 10:10 campaign in Dublin Zoo on the 21st of January . The walking, talking, dancing Bears delighted unsuspecting visitors and staff of Dublin Zoo with their arctic antics.
As well as launching the campaign the Polar Bears are on a mission to visit a school in every county in Ireland to spread the 10:10 campaign message. The Polar Bears started off their tour in Kildalkey County Meath where they thrilled students - and might have gotten them out of doing homework that evening! The Polar Bears were caught on camera in Kildalkey by RTE2’S News2Day which aired Monday 1st February.!
