Carla posted a few days ago about the upcoming blog day 2007 (August
31st). Chris Stark yesterday tagged me about a blog event which is coming up on October 15th 2007 called Blog Action Day.
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.
Already there are over one thousand blogs taking part in this including Problogger, Copyblogger and DailyBlogTips.
Here’s a little more about what the day is about :
Bloggers can participate on Blog Action Day in one of two ways:

For example: A blog about money might write about how to save around the home by using environmentally friendly ideas. Similarly a blog about politics might examine what weight environmental policy holds in the political arena.
Posts do not need to have any specific agenda, they simply need to relate to the larger issue in whatever way suits the blogger and readership. Our aim is not to promote one particular viewpoint, only to push the issue to the table for discussion.
More info can be found on the official Blog Action Day website.
BloggingTips will be taking part, will you?

Yeah I’m already in. Yesterday I wrote a post on it in my blog. Feeing great to be a part of a major event.
Me too Kev ! I’m basically green, as much as possible you know..this is a wonderful cause to support! So I’m in.
Excellent. Glad to see you signed up! I think it’s a pretty good idea…
Mani – I always dispose of my litter however I wouldnt say im super green. I am trying to get better though. My brother and his fiance are really into it, they are always going to the recycling center and they frequently give stuff away on a green website (ie. instead of throwing things in the bin).
Its good to see that more and more countries are doing their bit
It’s great to see that blogging can make a real difference in our world by fostering such a sense of community on these special days. I think its great! Thanks for posting this one Kevin!
That’s a great project, happy to know BloggingTips will participate
I signed-up with my 2 blogs, looking forward to October 15th (will have a lot of reading to do I think hehe)
Great cause! I signed up the other day to participate also….
bloggers can really make a difference by coming together like this.
This is a great post, Kevin. Thanks for making everyone aware. I’m going to see if we can get our network of Bloggers & Advertisers involved as well.
