Are you worried about the damage we are doing to the environment but feel intimidated by the drastic actions being proposed to reverse our impact? If so, then start small and start at DoTheGreenThing.com.
This is a cool and quirky website that makes saving the world seem a little easier. Every month the Green Thing suggests one idea and only asks site visitors to do it once. If they want to make it a habit, more power to ’em. October’s Good Thing to do is walk just once when you would normally travel by car, bus, or any other pollution-creating machine. The site supplies innovative motivation such as walking to exclusive walkcasts that include songs, walking tales and rhymes available on the website. Green Thing also motivates people by providing good reasons to walk, explaining the impact of doing it and posting two intensely creative videos each month showcasing the particular Green Thing to do. After completing the Green Thing, site users can post their accomplishment and learn more about their personal impact. The team at Green Thing believes that if we, the little people, begin to take small actions we will encourage big business and governments to make Green Things happen too.
DoTheGreenThing.com In Their Own Words
“Green Thing is a creative thing. Because entertainment is very inspiring and lectures a bit less so, the monthly Green Things are suggested with brilliant content from brilliant writers, musicians, designers, directors and artists – pro and am, young and old.
Green Thing is a not-for-profit thing. Because people are cynical about commercial or political agendas, Green Thing is an independent, not-for-profit thing powered by grants from foundations and individual contributions.
Green Thing is a credible thing. Because people want to know that their action is making a difference, Green Thing is endorsed by some of the planet’s leading environmental thinkers and reports back every month on the collective difference the whole community is making.”
Why DoTheGreenThing.com It Might Be A Killer
While there are a lot of sites proposing green solutions, Green Thing stands out with creative motivational techniques and a “little bit goes a long way” attitude.
