Someone was surely trying to create an “all environmentalists are insane” story when they announced this morning that the UK Government was trying to get us all to switch from fresh to UHT milk. Had this story been true (apparently it isn’t) the outrage would’ve sent greens throughout the UK scurrying into holes, thus ruining Blog Action Day.

Personally, most of my activity in this field is about helping people to do the green thing. Sign-ups for the project are going really well, and it’s exciting to see something I’ve been involved with for almost a year come to such a successful fruition.

Thanks to Slasheco for reminding me (via Facebook, how web 2.0 of us) about blog action day… None of my reminder emails having arrived.

What Kind of Blogger Are You?

In preparation for Blog Action Day on October 16th, there’s a quiz that tells you what kind of blogger you are. I’m a purist expert socialite, apparently. I don’t know if that’s a good thing or not…

I’m going to join in Blog Action Day, a day when thousands of bloggers will be writing about the environment. The idea is to create as much noise and attention at once as possible. If you have a blog, join in!
