Earth Bears was chosen for the show based on their strong focus on the
environment, whose mission statement includes bringing greater awareness to
the shared responsibility of maintaining health on the planet. Their slogan
"kids across the world making tomorrow a better place, caught the eye of the
show's Senior Producer and in-house Attorney, Marc Schechter.
"Environmentally responsible companies such as Earth Bears offer consumers
more just a quality product and great collectible, they provide products that
both encourages and educates children, Schools and Communities to do their
part in environmental awareness."

During the feature, Earth Bears will offer their "Father Time" bear, the
first Membership Bear in the "Earth Bears" Collection. Father Time, was
designed with the past, present and future in mind. Earth Bears believe that
each and every person, especially children, can make a difference in our
earth, universe and environment. By looking at the past, present and future,
we can see the good and the bad, and together, we can accomplish anything!

for the Father Time Bear through one of the six sites linked to Earth Bears
web site will receive a free Year 2000 membership, which can also be used for
a 20% savings off "the series" bears at participating stores.

Earth Bears will also feature non-member bear collectibles called Earth Bear
and Mother Earth. Earth Bear is the first kid bear in Earth Bears plush toy
line: "the series". Earth Bear, was designed to represent our Earth, is
white and two shades of blue. White is like the clouds, blue is like the sky
and my darker blue is as blue as the water! Mother Earth has a large globe
stitched in the shape of a heart on its chest, because Mother Earth's heart
belongs to THE WORLD and every wonderful living thing within. These bears
are part of a series that can be purchased without a membership.
