It’s no secret that James Cameron is ecolicious and now, just in time for the upcoming Oscars, his lovely wife Suzy Amis Cameron is having another green competition for green designers to design her a one-of-a-kind eco-friendly dress to be worn on the red carpet.

The competition, entitled Red Carpet, Green Dress, also raises money for the MUSE Global program, which helps fund schools in Thailand for refugee children from Burma.

The winning designer not only gets the exposure of having their dress be a fixture on the Red Carpet at the 2011 Academy Awards, but a $2,000 cash prize, a four-night stay at the Georgian Hotel in Santa Monica, a visit to MUSE headquarters, and an invitation to the Global Green pre-Oscar party.

Want to enter? Better hurry! The submission deadline is Wednesday, February 2, 2011 at 5pm, Pacific Standard Time.

Director James Cameron has engineered robotic devices that been a lot tricker than the issue BP is facing one mile below the ocean’s surface. The Bismarck was 2 miles down, the Titanic 2.5, but it turns out BP won’t be using any of Cameron’s ideas. 

“Over the last few weeks I’ve watched, as we all have, with growing horror and heartache, watching what’s happening in the Gulf and thinking those morons don’t know what they’re doing,” Cameron said at the All Things Digital technology conference.

Cameron said he has offered to help the government and BP in dealing with the spill, but was “graciously” turned away.

Cameron suggested the U.S. government needed to take a more active role in monitoring the underwater leak, which has become the worst oil spill in U.S. history.

“I know really, really, really smart people that work typically at depths much greater than what that well is at,” Cameron said.

Meanwhile, a BP exec is under fire after he said in an interview that he “just wants his life back.”

 At a press conference today, Twentieth Century Fox and director James Cameron announced a partnership with the Earth Day Network to plant one million trees in honor of Avatar by the end of 2010.

“I am pleased to have the opportunity to share the environmental messages from Avatar through the efforts during the 40th Anniversary of Earth Day and with Earth Day Network,” Cameron said. “Earth Day Network’s commitment and actions to promote a healthy, sustainable planet go hand-in-hand with the themes of Avatar.”
