Hello...my name is Milton "Tony" Taboada, I am passionate about the environment and earth.
I created an animated character called Globearth, with the mission to inform and educate children about ways to protect our planet.
The purpose of this campaign is to produce educational videos (via internet for free) for children informing them about pollution, deforestation, recycling, conservation and animals rights.
We need your help to make this dream a reality!
Hola ... mi nombre es Milton "Tony" Taboada, un apasionado del medio ambiente y del planeta tierra. He creado el personaje animado de nombre GLOBEARTH con la mision de informar y educar a los jovenes de la gran importancia de protejer nuestro planeta tierra.
El proposito de este proyecto es recaudar fondos para producir videos educativos para los mas jovenes con informacion sobre la contaminacion ambiental, deforestacion, reciclaje, conservacion y proteccion de los animales; los cuales seran distribuidos por internet en forma "gratuita" para poder llegar a todos los rincones del planeta.
Estudios han demostrado que el uso apropiado de un personaje animado ayuda a los jovenes a aprender .
Se acuerdan ustedes cual fue su personaje animado favorito?

What We Need & What You Get
We need your help and contribution to create educational videos (e.g., 30 minutes) about pollution, deforestation, recycling, conservation and animal rights.
Kids can learn to make this planet a cleaner, safer and friendlier place to live.
We need to fund $15,000.00 USD
Your contribution will help us to pay for production costs that involves filming, editing, etc.
It also includes paying for a director, script writer, actors and extras, a voice over personality, studio locations, music (licenses) and permits.
If the incoming funds exceeds our goal, we would include animated sequences in the educational video(s) of Globearth in either 2D or 3D.
We are planning to film one episode on the beach (Santa Monica or Laguna Beach), two episodes in a production studio and the last episode with live animals at Planet Rehab. These specified locations require permits and licenses to film.
A portion of campaign funds will go to Indiegogo and will be used for transaction fees, the manufacturing of T-shirts, plush toys, posters, postcards, postage (shipping & handling), envelopes, etc.
If we don't reach our entire goal, we will film shorter segments and post them on the internet. Also we will be investing in Globearth shirts, posters and plush toys to be donated at schools, hospitals and/or churches. If you have any suggestions on the organizations to donate to, please let us know.
Disclaimer: For international supporters that decide not to pay for the shipping and handling, depending on the perk package we will donate it to the organization of your choice in the U.S.
The future of our planet is in the hands of the new generation, please support us by making this project happen!
The Impact
As studies have shown, children are willing to explore and learn more when a program has an animated or a cartoon character leading the educational message or discussion. Globearth has the ability to have a huge impact on children that will help lead them into debates and discussions about the different environmental topics. Globearth's presence and live interaction in the educational videos will help children remember the important environmental issues for years to come!
What is or was your favorite animated or mascot character(s) when growing up?
Did that character(s) present a message that taught you valuable lessons in life?
Do you remember how influential that character was to you when you were growing up?
Please support this campaign and let's make Globearth part of the new generation! Your contribution is very valuable for this project! Together we can make a difference!
Let me share a story;
One sunny Saturday, March of 2015, Globearth (mascot costume) made its first appearance at the Santa Monica Pier in California. It was one the most beautiful experiences I have ever witnessed in my life! The general public was welcoming and excited to meet Globearth, families interacted and took pictures all day. The connection between Globearth and the children was so unreal that it encouraged me to dedicate myself to this new passion project.
Since then, Globearth has appeared and participated voluntarily in different cities and events: Earth Day CVWD in Rancho Cucamonga; All Kids Expo in Rancho Cucamonga; Founders Day Community Parade in Rancho Cucamonga; Planet Rehab's Beach Clean Up Day at Laguna Beach and Huntington Beach; Earth and Environmental Day in Claremont, Diamond Bar, Chino, San Dimas; and the Central American Parade in Los Angeles.
