Blog Action Day - 15 October 2007

Normally I don’t buy into these things, but this one seems worthwhile and credible:

Blog Action Day

Blog Action Day (and their blog)

On October 15th, bloggers around the web will unite to put a single important issue on everyone’s mind - the environment. Every blogger will post about the environment in their own way and relating to their own topic. Our aim is to get everyone talking towards a better future.

As I have written many times before, being mindful of our impact on the environment ought not be a political issue; conservation makes sense (particularly now in the midst of a drought). It just makes sense - primarily from a fiscal point of view - who doesn’t want to save money? Living green is easier than ever.

There is real momentum to the green building trend:

    First, I applaud you for joining in!

    Second, it’s so strange to hear about a drought since we’re under water here in Texas!

    Third, if you (or others) learn about other Realtors participating, let me know- I’m keeping a running roll on our site.

    Readers- Jim is one of the first Real Estate bloggers in America to join in!!!

    Thanks, Lani. If nothing else, a little bit of awareness never hurt anybody, and I won’t have to search too far for ideas on the 14th!

    Hi Jim,

    I will be participating! I found out about “Blog Action Day” this afternoon at a site called “RE Revealed”. I think it’s a fabulous idea. I’m so glad there are at least two C’ville real estate bloggers participating!
