350 Challenge Certificate
I got my 350 Challenge certificate the other day! Woohoo! This blog has helped me offset 350 pounds of carbon. I have officially stopped driving my car for two whole weeks! 
I wrote about this challenge in an earlier post. I’m so happy they changed their mechanics! They’ve reached their goal of 350 bloggers and they’re not stopping there (i thought they would). For each blogger to post their badge, they will offset 350 lbs. of carbon in the blogger’s name (i wonder if i post another one, will they offset an additional 350 lbs for me??? ). Nah… I can’t just sit pretty. I’ll have to try offsetting carbon on my own. Too bad for my husband, he has to contribute too.
Anyway… come on you guys! They now have 400 bloggers on their list. Be counted! Go on and head on to the 350 Challenge by Brighter Planet website and get your badge. What’s that itsy-bitsy space anyway? You can even choose the size of your badge. You have total control in how much space it’ll eat up. Give a gift back to Mama Earth!

That’s great! A super effort – giving up your car! With gas prices skyrocketing in Canada and elsewhere, I’m sure many more people will be doing the same. My husband and I can’t totally eliminate driving because we live in a rural area, but we drive a fuel efficient car and do multiple errands in one trip instead of two or three. So I guess that’s our contribution. Small, but every little bit counts.
