How Can We Stop Global Warming with a Bracelet?
Does this Bracelet Really Have an Impact?
You will be pleased to hear that the proceeds from the sales of the bracelets are donated to the grassroots nonprofit organization Stop Global Warming Fund. You will be thrilled to learn that Roots, the company selling the bracelets (www.roots.com) has an excellent track record of producing and providing products that are environmentally sustainable. You can even have the bracelet shipped to you without guilt because Roots will purchase a carbon offset to balance the emissions created during shipping.
Reduce Your Carbon Footprint in Shipping
A great way to make the shipping miles more worthwhile is to get others on board and compile your orders, and maybe even buy some extra global warming bracelets to sell at fundraising and activism events. I am going to purchase some extra global warming bracelets to sell at events on my college campus. The environmental impact of shipping seems negligible when you consider the possibilities for informing others.
A Reminder to Help Stop Global Warming
While a strap of leather around your wrist is not going to literally stop global warming, it can serve as a figurative catalyst for change. For your individual behavior, the bracelet's constant presence can serve as a push in the right direction when you are debating whether to walk to the grocery store or drive, or as a reminder to bring your cloth bags instead of using the plastic ones at the store. The unique bracelet is bound to attract attention and present ample opportunities to inform strangers about global warming and grassroots action. Many people are concerned about global warming but have no direction as to what actions to take - something a simple piece of jewelry can provide.
It is extremely important in building a massive, grassroots movement for individuals to be able to identify with a larger group and a common cause. The bracelet will do just that, allowing others to see that they are not alone.
