Go Sveta! 7 personal challenges for the Enviroweek. Please sponsor me.

I confessed earlier that I'm a bit of a greenie, nothing too radical but trying to do my bit.

I've never really done anything public, but today I heard about Enviroweek in Sydney, 11-17 October and decided it's time to do something more active, plus it's fun.

I'm fundraising as part of Enviroweek dare, and have set myself the following challenges, all to be completed in the next 5 days:

1. Offset my 2009 household emissions (2 tonnes)
2. Request to invest my superannuation (like a pension fund) into more sustainable industries
3. Go vegetarian for a week, until 19 October
4. Decline all plastic bags when shopping and plastic cups when drinking (means no takeaway coffee or drinks)
5. Turn off all power switches at night
6. Switch to renewable gas if I can (already have 100% green electricity)
7. Buy a bike to ride everywhere.

If you would like to see all of the above becoming a reality, please donate.

It might seem a lot but I'm fully committed and hopefully will get your support along the way!

GO BETTER PLANET!

I'm trying to raise as much money as I can, and I only have 5 days. Please PLEASE support me! :)

UPDATE

Have just offset 2 tonnes of CO2 with Greening Australia, so that's Number 1 done. Going for the 2nd day of being vegetarian, no plastic bags or cups consumed so far. And everything was off at night at powerswitches, apart from the phone & the fridge.
