Portland

Believe it or not, Carrotmob Portland is really happening in only 3 days, on June 21. We are still in shock that HOTLIPS on Hawthorne has pledged 100% of their revenue to make their store more energy efficient!

In case you need a reason beyond pizza, energy efficiency, and entertainment to come to HOTLIPS on the 21st, HOTLIPS already does a lot of sustainable and socially-responsible things. They’ve been recycling and composting almost everything for a long time. They buy almost all of their ingredients locally. It seems like just about every other charitable event or cause is sponsored by them.

Also, HOTLIPS Soda will be sold for only $30 a case! That’s $10 less than usual. It’s definitely worth it to get a whole case of local, real fruit soda while helping the environment for a discount.
