the big ASAP picnic, Midsummers Day [21st] at Stormont

Published on May 27, 2011 in Uncategorized. Leave a Comment Tags: , , , , , , .

so totally flat out preparing for the ASAP picnic, I don’t find time to blog about all the GOOD news that’s happening all over the place

our NI newspapers have been great; but when are our broadcasters going to realise? the growing response in Northern Ireland, to what looks amazingly like climate change from here, is not only 100% VITAL news for everyone, but also it’s a huge stash of brilliant stories about people young and old at last really getting together to meet this huge challenge.

we need everybody, but meantime we’re working inspiringly now with movers and shakers in Ballymena, Derry, Belfast, Omagh, and soon, Armagh… with many other councils offering support eg Coleraine, Strabane, Antrim, Down, Carrickfergus.

And then there’s Tuesday’s visit to Dublin for the ECO-UNESCO Young Environmentalist Awards.

For our kids to have a future, we need to DO, not talk or turn aside. So

PLEDGE ASAP [ASAP] and pass it on. Let Northern Ireland’s message rock round and round the world. GOOD news from us, at last.

thanks to South Belfast MLA/Alliance Party Candidate Anna Lo for taking the time and trouble to Pledge ASAP, in this busy pre-election time

Anna’s giving up:
using plastic bags in supermarkets;
taking my car for short trips;
leaving television on standby;
leaving lights on unnecessarily or heating rooms not being used.

and taking up: bringing my shopping bags to the shops; buying vegetables and fruit unpackaged as far as possible;

this brings our MLAs to 33 [at least!] so we can definitely say we’ve got politicians willing to Do Something Deadly Simple AND have the pleasure of showing leadership

This is so cool, purrs Baglady, who’s off to Harryville Ballymena, tomorrow morning to help the school, and Tidy NI, pick up rubbish. Come on everybody! This stuff’s dysgusting. Let’s stop it now.
