Bo Derek is leading the campaign against oil drilling in Yasuni National Park in Ecuador.

There are 10 billion dollars worth of oil in the rainforst.

Even though Ecuador is a developing country, and could really use the revenue, they are willing to accept less than half that amount in donations from around the world.

If they reach their 3.6 billion dollar goal, they won’t drill.

The money will go to reforestion, social development, renewable energy, and clean up.

The California political state got something right!

Yesterday, the CA Senate passed the bill to ban shark finning — a bill many celebrities have supported including Leonardo DiCaprio, Bo Derek, and Edward Norton.

Passing by a vote of 25-9, the bill is now in the hands of Governor Jerry Brown who is expected to sign it within the week. This new legislation will prohibit sale, trade, and possession of shark fins within the state.

This is great news for the environment! People may have their opinions of sharks, but they are greatly needed in order to keep the oceanic ecosystem intact.

Also, it's just plain cruel! Shark finning involves the slow, torturous death of sharks by hauling them aboard ships, cutting off their fins, and chunking them back into the water alive.

Humans kill around 73m sharks a year, but everyone agrees this is a step in the right direction! Since CA held the biggest demand for shark fins outside Asia, it's going to make an impact.

Great job, California!

Actress Bo Derek has joined California lawmakers to fight for a bill that would ban selling, trading, or possessing shark fins, which are used in a soup that is a delicacy in many Asian cultures.

In order to get the fins, sharks are caught, then have their fins sliced off before they are thrown back into the ocean where they are left to die.

Bo calls shark-finning "a global environmental crisis" and says that "many stocks may be wiped out."

Thankfully, U.S. law restricts the shark fin trade, however, it has the largest market in California outside of Asia.

Quite startling for an illegal practice.

Keeping our fingers crossed that the bill is passed.

Get ready, world!

In case you haven't been over-exposed to the point of exhaustion with the Kardashians yet, you're about it - because Miz Kim has announced that she will be debuting her first single, Turn It Up, this Sunday during the new episode of Kourtney & Kim Take New York!

She writes:

"It debuts this Sunday on Kourtney and Kim Take New York and will be available on iTunes. I’m going to start sharing all my pics from the music video shoot tomorrow, so stay tuned! Hype Williams came up with this Bo Derek braids look for the music video and I loved it! It took about four hours to do, and believe it or not I fell asleep! I wish I could have worn it longer. We tried out a number of different looks in the video, and I’ll be sharing the other looks with you guys here on my blog. I’m excited (and a little nervous) for you all to hear the song and watch the video. I really hope you all like it!"

It certainly remains to be seen!

But we're definitely digging the new looks, and if Kanye is actually in the track, like he's rumored to be, then we actually think that this might have some potential!

Check out some shots from behind-the-scenes of the video (above and below)!

Fingers crossed!

What do U think?? Are U excited for Kim's debut song??

Wow! Talk about aging gracefully!

Actress Bo Derek made an appearance at the Lambertz Monday Night 2011 Schoko & Fashion party at the Alten Wartesaal in Cologne, Germany last night (above), and holy shiz - we'd never once think that she was 54 years old!

She looks absolutely STUNNING, no?!

Way to prove that you can still look great without tons of severe knifestyling, bb!

We think more should follow your example! Getting older does not have to be a scary thing!

Thoughts??
