John Paul DeJoria, CEO and co-founder of Paul Mitchell, and Angus Mitchell, co-owner and director of education for JPMS, donated a solar-powered car to the Los Angeles-based Petersen Automotive Museum's Alternative Power exhibition (petersen.org).

DeJoria and the late Paul Mitchell built the Mana La Solar car in 1987 for the first solar-powered car race from Darwin to Adelaide, Australia. Not only did it run on solar power, but wind power as well! The car will be on display through May 2010. Visit paulmitchell.com for details on the company's global environmental inititives.
