Presentation at Pattana (BPS)

On May 20th I presented to teachers and students at Bangkok Patana School about environmental actions a school could be involved with. The theme was LESS TALK... MORE ACTION. It showed things that can be done in class, with an environmental group and events a whole school can get involved with to change businesses. See both presentations below.

Carrotmob Winners!!!!

Finally, we can announce the Carrotmob winners. First I would like to thank New York Diner, Que Pasa, Subway, Slider Shack and Twist for participating in the 2nd Bangkok Carrotmob.

Based on what all 5 companies have done we have selected 3 winners and they are:

1. Twist
2. Slider Shack
3. Que Pasa

Have a look at what all 5 companies have done by clicking here.

There were some significant changes made in certain areas.

Friday after school (2:15) the mob will meet in front of the ISB zig zag to get everyone together. Twist has agreed to come to us and will be set up in front with us and will have 200+ smoothies ready to go (60 baht - please have correct change).

From there we will march out to reward Slider Shack and then branch off to reward Que Pasa too. You can buy as little or as much as you like, but I recommend having 100-300 baht.

We still have no idea how many will turn up. I suspect about 200, but it could even reach 500 or more. We welcome anyone and everyone who wants to make a difference in the world and would like to reward businesses for making eco changes.

Remember the Carrotmob only works if people show up to support it.

300 Trees Planted and a Trip to the Eco Center

On May 2nd, 2009, 60+ ISB students went to Sirindhorn International Environmental Park and planted 300 trees. We also had some time at the beach and checked out the environmental center.
