Cool Choice Sticker: Saving the planet one choice at a time.

From environmental artist Lynne Hull:

I have created “Cool Choice” stickers to be posted where anyone

seeing the “prompt” sticker has a small lifestyle choice to make and

the sticker reminds us of which choice helps save energy and reduce global warming:

Using a push door instead of an electric one, using stairs instead of elevators, driving a fuel efficient car, taking the bus, eating local organic food, riding a bike, and many more.

I invite businesses, government entities and community members

to participate in posting stickers where these lifestyle changes

can have a positive effect. Audubon Colorado invites you to

sign up on their website to receive occasional information

updates on climate change issues and actions you can take.

Guidelines:

1. Send SASE for stickers to Cool Choice, PO Box 1239, Fort Collins, Colorado 80522

Or coolchoice@eco-art.org. Stay updated at http://coolchoicesticker.blogspot.com

2. research or imagine a place to post your sticker

3. get permission to post it (this informs and involves more people in the action)

4. Post and photograph it and send to coolchoice@eco-art.org for posting

5. Take the pledge: follow through on using the “cool choices” you and others post

6. Sign up for action alerts on climate change at: http://audubonaction.org/campaign/climateactionpledge

7. Extra credit: work with a large building owner, corporation big box store, factory, or government entity, to inventory their products & post stickers regarding their organizational ecology, merchandise/product ecology, or do a general environmental assessment of their place and process. Effluent & waste is lost income for the company!

Wacky bikes and car hoods recycled into alternative transportation at the New Belgium Tour de Fat are a cool choice. It's either the world's slowest bike race or the world's biggest bike parade, or Fort Collins, Colorado's version of mardi gras.

More Cool Choices from Boulder, Colorado:
The farmer's market:
Organic food is a cool choice
It's healthier for you and for
the environment. Eating local
farmer's market food saves energy
by not transporting food from a million
miles away.

Posting cool choices in Boulder, Colorado--place a sticker as a reminder prompt at places where you have a small lifestyle choice to make and using this choice uses less energy and reduces global warming. The Text Bus is a cool choice because this bus runs around town and the University campus. When you walk to a bus stop there's a number to call to find out how many minutes you'll have to wait for the next bus!
