One Change A Day To Help Create a Greener Way
One thing that definitely puts a smile on my face is the discovery of someone new linking over to our site!
Well, today I found a link over from a site called “Green as a Thistle“. As per usual, I decided to check them out to see what they are all about (and perhaps try to get a feel for why they decided to link to us).
The ‘Green as a Thistle’ blog is very new - I think it was started at the beginning on the March in fact - but it definitely looks really cool. The idea behind it is that the author, Vanessa, has pledged to make one green change to her life every day for an entire year - to add a little ‘compound interest’ into the mix, she has also promised that each and every change will be permanent (ie. she won’t just be testing out a variety of green options over the course of the year).
It sounds like an admirable challenge, and one I would imagine will only become more and more difficult as the year progresses. It will be interesting to see if she follows Franke James’ advice by ‘doing the hardest things first’. Whatever the case may be, it will be really interesting to follow her progress!
Some of her changes thus far have included turning down her thermostat, buying some jewelry made of recycled materials, and switching to a more earth-friendly brand of conditioner.
