I generally save my ’shout out’ posts for specific, excellent stuff and this is certainly one of them.
These Come From Trees is a really simple, but incredibly effective ‘ guerrilla public service announcement’ which is doing great things for our environment.
The concept is simple: when people are reminded about their ability to act responsibly, they usually do. So tapping into this, These Come From Trees sell packs of the sticker (over there to your right) which you can then use to stick in the right place (see their flickr for examples).

After two months of torrential spam, we’ve finally got the forum cleaned, secured and running again!

As some of you may or may not know, I’ve just had a 2 week quick trip back to the UK to head into Energise HQ and work with Callum to plan our year ahead (very exciting). Now, normally I suffer jet lag pretty badly - lots of passing out at 5pm and waking up bright and breezy at 4am. Not good. Especially when you have travelled to work AND socialise.
