Portland

Carrotmob is finally coming to Portland!

We’re going to imitate San Francisco’s method by visiting convenience stores and having them bid a percentage of a particular day’s revenue to use for energy-efficiency (and maybe waste-reduction?) improvements.  This weekend we’re planning on beginning to visit stores. We’ve contacted Energy Trust of Oregon and found out that they do energy audits for free. We’re also looking to collaborate with the Master Recycler Program for waste reduction, if possible, although they haven’t responded yet. We have a Facebook group which has grown rapidly… please join!

Once we’ve decided on a location and date, I’ll post more information.
