The keystroke is mightier than the sword
I know, I know. If you're reading Enviroblog, there's a pretty good chance you already care about the environment. But not everyone does, and this newfangled citizen media stuff just might be a good way to begin to change that.
From the minds behind NorthxEast, FreelanceSwitch and ZenHabits comes Blog Action Day. This year, on October 15th, bloggers around the world will be writing about the environment. There's no agenda and no specific message, and anyone who wants to can get involved. The point, according to the action's coordinators, is to
"display the potential and the power of the blogging community, which is a disparate community but one with an amazing size, breadth and diversity. By bringing everyone together for one day, we can see just how much can be achieved, and how much we can be heard."
So we'll be blogging about the environment on October 15th, just like we do every other day. But we'll be glad for the company.
Want to get involved? Go to Blog Action Day and register your site.
I have also registered my blog. In fact, I’m planning a month-long campaign on appreciating our environment, which will conclude on 15 Oct. We shall see how it goes..
A month long campaign sounds like a great idea -- there's certainly enough to blog about when it comes to environmental issues.
Definately a cool idea. Signed up. Thanks.
awesome! Great blog, btw.
