Miscellany of a Cheshire Cat

Join Carbonrally with Monster Cat!
That’s right, Monster Cat has a Carbonrally team and you can join!

Carbonrally.com is a nifty little site that raises awareness for just how easy it is to reduce your environmental impact. You sign up, join a team (optional but Monster Cat would love to have you), take on challenges and watch your CO2 savings grow! It’s a fun toy! Several of the challenges take very little effort and they are taking suggestions for new challenges. I’m not sure their math is perfect (in terms of CO2 impact), but it’s the thought that counts and the challenges do make a difference.

Kick the Catalogs
My favorite recent challenge is the Kick the Catalogs Challenge. I signed up for Catalog Choice and started going through the pile of catalogs that came in while I was in Chicago. I do like catalogs - they’re great for getting ideas and finding interesting little things - but we get so many at the house it’s not even funny. I think our postman does weight training to prep for the holiday season. Catalog Choice will, hopefully, get me off the mailing lists for all the catalogs I don’t really read or want or ended up getting duplicates of. Oh, and the recycling bin will be a little less over-stuffed in the future!

So join up if you’re interested! Monster Cat is here to lead us to a greener planet!
