Honda Sued For Trademark Infringement For Suggesting It Wants To Save The Earth
from the okay,-don't-save-the-earth dept
Be careful suggesting that you want to "save the earth." Automaker Honda just did that in an ad with a guy wearing a "save the earth" t-shirt, and for doing so, it got slapped with a trademark infringement lawsuit from the Save the Earth Foundation, which apparently has a trademark on that phrase (and has had it since 1972). The foundation claims that the ad was implying endorsement by the foundation. I wonder if morons in a hurry have any interest in saving the earth.Filed Under: advertising, cars, save the earth, t-shirts, trademark
