This isn’t necessarily about environmentalism.

The icon, font and style are from Windows XP. I decided to use the more familiar default background color of Windows 2K since the background color in Windows XP is rarely seen as it sets a wallpaper by default. The globe is a trace from some random image of earth I found online. In retrospect I probably should have looked for a better satellite image to trace. The one I used was low resolution and I wasn’t sure if I was going to use it, and then the trace was done, heh. I figure it’s good enough. I spent a few hours getting the bin icon to look as accurate as possible and based it on the 48×48 image. It’s not perfect, but it’s pretty good.
