SWITCH THE LIGHTS OFF! (A practical lesson in normative messaging)

Posted on March 30, 2011 at 3:12pm 0 Comments 0 Likes

No this is not about Earth Hour, but rather a practical experience I recently had with some unconscious normative messaging and behaviour.

Kevin Rudd was going to put a price on carbon, get indigenous reconciliation back on the agenda and take a moral and compassionate stance on asylum seekers.

Since leaving Net Balance I've essentially been traveling.
Currently in Cambodia.
I got a hankering for some sustainability tit bits the other day and remembered you guys.

I've been 'dropping in' to check out the skinny from the sidelines without signing in, much to my detriment as now I can't seem to sign into my old profile - I had to make a new one and now I have 2 in my name!?!

Anyhoo, might have a wander and see what other smilin' faces there are...

Cheers
