Leila at everydaytrash has nominated The Temas Blog for a Blogging for Positive Global Change "award." It’s a meme, or blog-driven chain letter with the aim of highlighting bloggers who “have taken the weight of the world upon their shoulders and are trying to build awareness among their readership in order to create a more sustainable and enlightened future.”
I'm not sure I deserve the distinction, but thank her for her vote of confidence. It means alot coming from her. I'll do my best to live up to the honor.
Here are the rules:
- When you get tagged, write a post with links to up to 5 blogs that you think are trying to change the world in a positive way.
- In your post, make sure you link back to this post so that people can easily find the exact origin of the meme.
- Leave a comment or message for the bloggers you’re tagging, so they know they’re now part of the meme.
- Optional: Proudly display the “Bloggers For Positive Global Change” award badge with a link to the post that you write up.
Well, here are my nominations (keeping in mind that I cannot nominate Leila because someone else beat me to it):
- Celsias, a terrific environment (not just climate change!) blog whose whole raison d'etre seems to be blogging for positive global change;
- The Inspired Protagonist, the official blog of Seventh Generation, which always tries to keep it positive in its musings on environmental issues of the day. I don't always agree with their opinions, but they always make me think.
- Ecoiron, which educates us all (even those who thought we already knew alot about the issue) about the many, many facets of making computers/electronics/informatics "green";
- Climate Change Action, Calvin Jones' one-man tour-de-force effort to inform/educate/motivate us regarding global climate change;
- Comunicacion Ambiental, a very well-written, thoughtful Argentine blog (in Spanish) about environmental issues and how they are reported and debated in Argentina.
