Greenie Events That Help You Avoid The End Of The World

Or at least annoy people at great lengths with many facts.

From ClimateChange

If you didn't know, I've recently turned into a tree hugging, peak oil fearing evangelist for, you know, not screwing up the entire world.

I went to two discussion things, and shit, people listened when I opened my mouth - who cares about coping with global warming, I just want to have people listen to me :(

In that spirit, here's a bunch of things I'd like to go and open my big fat loud mouth at...

Other exciting news (for treehuggers):

• Adelaide is getting car pooling in the south east.
• Some buildings are getting made... more buildinglike and less energy consuming.
• I have new and exciting pants.
• Truth be told, number 3 wasn't that exciting for treehuggers.

I'd normally try to think of something startling and exciting to astound you with. But I'm tired. Really tired.
