CBC has partnered with Cisco Systems and has launched a new campaign aimed at bringing Canadians together in the fight against climate change - One Million Acts of Green (OMAoG)."One Million Acts of Green is a unique opportunity to demonstrate how technology can enable people to make powerful connections and effect change" said Nitin Kawale, president of Cisco Canada. "Cisco technology forms the foundation of the Internet and the Internet isn’t a network of computers, it’s a network of people"
An act can encompass everyday habits such as buying locally grown produce, using stainless steel water bottles and reusable shopping bags to larger-scale projects like installing storm windows, solar power cells or participating in community 'green' challenges.
Users on the OMAoG site are able to create a profile, add each act of green that has been or will be accomplished and monitor just how many greenhouse gases have been saved.
Loving it!
