green building : global warming - "Wearing the Climate Crisis on Your Wrist"

By: N. Brown

Concerned about global warming but not sure what you could possibly do? It's easier than you may think. While all of us contribute to global warming in many ways both direct and indirect, there are things that you can do to help raise awareness of the cause and proliferate financial support for it. Buying a "Stop Global Warming" bracelet will help you remember about the crisis that faces the planet everyday, it will help others become aware of the issue and will support The Stop Global Warming Fund, a grassroots organization making efforts to fight global warming.

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. In addition to your behavioral compass, the global warming bracelet can serve as a conversation starter. 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.
