Party with YERT in San Francisco! 10/24/07
October 10, 2007 by Mark.
California is YERT’s 17th state. Just 33 more to go! Woah!
YERT is winding its way through California in October and we’d love for you to be a part of this leg of the journey. You’re invited to a giant eco-bash (eVite event is here, Facebook event is here) with three easy instructions:
- BYOB: Bring Your Own Bowl! And silverware, cloth napkin, cup, etc. We are trying to produce minimal waste at this event. Bring your most colorful dinnerware to show off…
- Bring a local or organic food item! This is a potluck, so bring something tasty and healthy to share with the tasty and healthy guests, and let me know what you plan to bring…
- Bring a story! Bring one anecdote about a change that you made in your life this year to reduce your planetary impact. Even one CFL bulb will do.
We’ll have photos projected on the wall, you can see our year-to-date garbage, and we’ll all be able to share stories about this crazy eco-movement. Also, if you know friends in SF, send them the link! We’d love to meet and make new friends.
- Location: Jeremy’s Flat, 698 Missouri St., San Francisco, CA 94107
- Time/Date: Wednesday, October 24, 7:00PM
- RSVP: Please reply via eVite or Facebook.
- Questions? Contact Mark Dixon, 415-672-5537, mark@yert.com
That’s about it! Carpool if you can… vote against coal… catch your rainwater… eat less meat… recycle… buy less crap you don’t need… and enjoy the process of letting go!
Festively Yours,
Mark

New Video - YERT Blert 1: Checking In 3 Months Out
October 10, 2007 by Ben.
Ever considered keeping a compost bin in your car 24/7? Or how long you could go without turning on an incandescent light? Or what it might feel like to be completely dependent on a hankie? Neither did we…until this trip started.
Three months in, the YERT team takes a look back at the first 95 days with a mix of joy, delirium, and a much higher tolerance for questionable odors. We’ve had some wonderfully unexpected adventures along the way and covered some unbelievable territory - each day is like peeling the next layer of an onion that at once fills us with dread and hope for the future…sometimes the onion even makes us cry. Or, adapting a simile from our interview today with gDiapers in Portland: Life on the road is like changing a diaper…you never know what you’re going to get, but it’s bound to be interesting.
