Going Green! - II

I was out to lunch with vicarious rock thrower Tinker Bell when she pointed out a great article about holding Green Meetings.  Knowing it would make it to this blog, Tinker Bell handed me a rock to throw.

The Shitshow released 10 ways to hold green meetings.  In all honesty this sounds like a great idea but those familiar with the Shitshow know ideas and execution never lineup.  I have seen more insight on being green given by Hannah Montana on the Disney channel as a public service announcement.

Here’s a summary of the best ones the Shitshow came up with:

-Put your green initiative in writing and hand it out to attendees and managers to get buy in and have them sign it.
-Minimize resource consumption.
-Maximize the use of recyclable and recycled material.
-Reduce, Reuse, Recycle.  What?  Isn’t this just the previous two ideas in one catchy little phrase.   Still made the list as a separate entry.
-Order the right amount of food.
-Order food in bulk.
-And my favorite suggestion on holding a green meeting…..reuse the same linens and towels throughout your stay at a hotel.

Because a shitshow by any other color is still a shitshow, I throw recycled rocks.
