Good Luck, readers!

I spend a good portion of my work day monitoring Twitter for trends and conversations and virtually shaking hands with companies from all over the world — it’s a great way to share ideas and learn new things. Well recently, I’ve noticed a new green trend: broadcasting energy consumption on Twitter.

The University of Mississippi is about to jump on this bandwagon with Facebook and Twitter updates detailing several of its main buildings’ energy use. The purpose? To alter behaviour to reduce electricity consumption and carbon emissions. Included in the details will be consumption from lighting, temperature controls, and appliances. All this will be done with the help of a smart grid company called SmartSynch. Neat! Good for them to be so open and public (and accountable) for that kind of information.

I’d love to see this become a very popular trend.

Speaking of Twitter, are you following me? I don’t know why you wouldn’t. It’s the cool thing to do, of course. And for those of you who’d like a feed of the site, follow the site’s feed here!

In case you haven’t been following the news, there is significant worry behind declines in the bee population, which spawned other problems like bee theft.

Now, as if that weren’t scary enough, we have to worry about new reports from Reuters that huge colonies of bee-eating Asian Hornets are spreading like wildfire through southwestern France!

These hornets are said to be able to wipe out an entire beehive in 48 hours — eep! And since the bee population is already under significant stress right now, that’s a much greater threat.

Let’s get together, folks. There are plenty of calls to action in the Twittersphere and we all know that social networking can be great for working together to get things done. Häagen-Dazs has been working to save bees for a long time now as they recognize that a whopping 1/3 of the world’s food supply is dependant on bees.

They currently have a 7-Day Go Natural Challenge going on that is not only delicious, but extremely helpful — and you could win a year supply of Häagen-Dazs! (I don’t think they know what they’re getting into, I can eat a lot of HD in a YEAR, heh).

Spread the word!

Whoa! I’m having some odd problems on BambiGoesGreen — sorry folks!

I’ve been working all weekend to try and figure out what the problem is and I’m hoping — given that the site is actually, sort-of, running right now — that I’m on the right track. Keep your fingers crossed.

In the meantime, keep up to date with me via Twitter.

Dearest loyal readers,

Ooops! Wordpress ate my Saturday posts! It’s entirely my fault for not checking the site to be sure that the posts were up and working, but what can you do, right?

I didn’t notice until a reader messaged me on Twitter to ask me if I was going to do a weekly recap using her comment — and I thought I had!

They will be up as soon as I get them re-written, so check back later on tonight for Saturday’s posts!

Yours truly,
Bambi
