I am again indebted to Dave of Solarventi for sending me a piece to twitch the eyebrows: One Bin Day
Like WRAP and all those other fine, funded (sorry, I originally wrote fine-funded, which would not do at all) entities that use our tax-£'s so efficiently, I always look forward to the next stunning initiative that will soar without trace in the communications sector.
You, dear reader, doubtless have heard all about this. I must confess that without Dave I would not have. And if there are more like me that makes two folk who will now be moving to the centre of the room on just this one day and thinking hard on all the money the got blown on meetings with agencies, PR's, etc to come up with this and promote it.
Money well spent, I am sure.
If I can be bothered, I may go back to see how many people did upload pictures of themselves doing it. Maybe I will!
As as I do ponder whether funds and comms efforts have gone somewhere to help save the planet more tangibly.
Junkk.com promotes fun, reward-based e-practices, sharing oodles of info in objective, balanced ways. But we do have personal opinions, too! Hence this slightly ‘off of site, top of mind' blog by Junkk Male Peter. Hopefully still more ‘concerned mates’ than 'do this... or else' nannies, with critiques seen as constructive or of a more eyebrow-twitching ‘Oh, really?!' variety. Little that’s green can be viewed only in black and white.

I believe in freedom of speech. But I also don't like bullies on blogs, even verbal ones, as they can drive away those with something valid to say... or offer.
Subjective is fine, but well argued and substantiated is even better. Calm and polite tops. Anything that crosses my personal line will not go up. There may be reasons given, but not guaranteed.
I'm not too keen on 'Anon' as a handle (and the content usually explains why), so if that's what you opt for it may not make it. Sorry.
Looks like 'One Bin Day' was a fantastic success, public money really well spent on a brilliant and high profile awareness raising exercise. As of 09:30 this morning the number of businesses submitting stories and pictures of their participation in 'One Bin Day' is an enourmous 1. Yes, one single story!!

That's what I call a fabulous ROI.
I hope that one poster used the reverse side of those two A4 pages to print on!
