Bat Week celebrations from October 24-31st

Did you know it is Bat Week now from October 24th thru to October 31st?  

Bat Week is an annual event where conservationists and government representatives meet, collaborate, network and learn from one another. Communities across North America host special events from bat counts to bat house building workshops and more. 


It is a good time to reflect about our own behaviours, actions, day-to-day choices and purchases. Did you know that I once wrote a column on this topic back in 2000-2007 that was published in several countries around the world? Some publications would use it as a monthly column, others bi-weekly, and it reached all around the world and won several awards. around 2007 I decided to compile all the articles and create a database in book format for people interested in saving money while having a positive impact on the environment. The first edition of the Trash Talk book was a success and got noticed by the Recycling council of BC who gave us an award for our work. I can't tell you how exciting that was. Subsequent publisher changes as contracts ran out allowed us to release upgraded, updated editions... and now we have the 2-book Trash Talk series. Each chapter offers several ways to save money, reduce waste, information about the recycling and waste industry, practical ways to reduce energy use and go organic around the yard, home or office. These books show you the numbers, the studies, the statistics that prove each tiny action will save money and will have an impact on the community and the planet itself.

Each xmas shopping season we like to remind people of these books. For themselves, they can learn how to design their shopping plan, green up their wrapping style, reduce waste, save money and plan environmentally friendly events and meals during the holiday season.

As a gift, these books will pay for themselves if only a few of the tips are taken up by the recipient... and there's so many tips that it's a 2-book series. So please do consider our books this season as gifts for your dear friends, coworkers and family... it supports this blog, all our efforts... and of course we donate 10% of our BMG earnings to charity every year.
