How to auto zip all folders?

Hi,

How do I write a script that will automatically find and zip any folder to the same name in a directory and affected recursively?. The zip file should be place in the same directory where the source folder is. Help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.


ex:

Orange Crayon
Blue Crayon
Red Box

to

Orange Crayon.zip
Blue Crayon.zip
Red Box.zip
