The cartoons on this blog are available for free – for your personal use.

Contact me, if:

• you want a privately-commissioned cartoon (a.k.a. social object)

• you want to license the commercial use of one of my existing cartoons

Remember: These are social objects. They are intended to be shared. They are intended to start conversations.

Enjoy the conversations you start when you share a social object.

I believe in sharing.

Feel free to download the cartoons on this blog for your personal use.

You can print them out and put them to your wall, post them in your blog, add them to a PowerPoint presentation, print them out on to posters, T-shirts, coffee mugs, a mouse pad, homemade greeting cards, or whatever, as long as it’s for your own personal use.

As long as you’re not trying to make money off it and you’re giving me attribution, go for it.

My licensing terms are pretty open.

If you see a cartoon you like, here’s what you can do:

1. Download the high-resolution image to your hard drive.
   (To download an image: right-click on the image and select “Save Link As”)
2. Upload the image to Cafepress.com
3. Create your own cool personal item, such as a T-Shirt or coffee mug.

Soon you’ll have a crowd of people asking you about your new shirt (or mug).

It’s quick. It’s easy.

Enjoy.

The cartoons (a.k.a. artwork) on this blog are social objects.

A social object is a conversation starter, an idea starter, a thought virus.

A social object is the reason a group comes together in the first place. It helps define what the group has in common.

A social object starts a conversation. That conversation is more important than the social object that started the conversation.

The cartoons on this blog are intended to spark conversations on a wide variety of topics related to clean energy.

The cartoons on this blog are available for free – for your personal use.

Feel free to print them out and post them at work and at home.

If you want a privately-commissioned social object or to license the commercial use of an existing cartoon, contact me at
