Rather than being single minded about what topic Green Day should cover on June 9, I thought let's see what others are offering or talking about.
Could not find a better place to start than The green agenda: June by Caroline White (Guardian, June 1) in which she 'rounds up some of this month's green-themed debates, campaigns and activities' mostly around the UK.
Since a week has gone already, let's start with works in progress.
First time I hear about International Clothesline Week, June 6 to June 14 which suggests that during that time we pick a day (not today for me as it is raining cats and dogs) where we give the dryer a rest and let the sun and the breeze do the work (illustration from their site).
On June 21, Miles Irving of Forager UK gives a Foraging Course in Chartham, Kent. You will learn how to identify (edible) plants and gather them.
June 9 is/was actually Liftshare Day in the UK, what we would call car pooling in the US.
In South Africa, Cape Town Green Map was one of the actors in the global launch of Open Green Map on June 5th for World Environment Day which we covered.
It allows you to 'explore Cape Town's green spaces, nature reserves, organic eateries,
farmers' markets, recycling drop-offs, sustainable living projects, eco
products and other green choices'…
Down Under, o2 Western Australia, a 'network for sustainable designers' explores 5 Ways Your Bedroom is Killing You (June 4), a bit somber maybe.
A world tour of eco-friendly happenings for Green Day # 80
Last week: Yes You Can…Travel Around Europe this Summer with Rail Europe, Reduce Carbon Fooprint
