Earth Day Challenge: Record a day in the (un)sustainable life

earth day challengeDuring the week of Earth Day 2010, people around the world will capture the state of (un)sustainable living in their community as part of A Day in a (Un)Sustainable Life 2010, an annual, global research & policy project lead by the Net Impact chapter at the University of St. Thomas. Net Impact Seattle would like to invite everyone to join in!

Simply wander out into your community during the week around April 22nd with a digital camera and a journal. As you wander, photograph examples of what you see as the best and worst in sustainable living practices. As you compose a photograph, use your journal to capture the thoughts and feelings you are experiencing. Then share your photos and your thoughts with us.

Share your photos, thoughts, and feelings with the project by sending your photos and journal entries to niseattle@gmail.com. Please include the photograph files as attachments rather than embedding the photos in the email. Then, put all of your journal entries in a Word attachment or in the body of the email. At the end of each journal entry, make sure you clearly identify which of the photos you’ve written about and, if you’re sharing it, the address/location where those photos were taken.

Once all the participants have shared their images, thoughts, and feelings, the University of St. Thomas will begin the process of organizing and interpreting everything that was shared.

Thanks for participating!
