Blog Action Day is October 15th, 2010. It’s an annual event uniting bloggers around the world who agree to post about the same issue on the same day. The goal is to raise awareness and start a global discussion around an important issue that impacts us all. This year, the theme is water.
Global Exchange is excited to be taking part in Blog Action Day this year. Here’s a little preview of what we’ll be blogging about, for those interested: we’ll be doing an interview style post to share the experiences and wisdom of local Mt. Shasta California residents who are involved in a local water rights campaign aimed at recognizing the rights of nature and community. To learn more about the Mt. Shasta campaign, read Big Politics in a Small Town: Why Mt. Shasta is standing up for YOUR rights.
If you have a blog, it’s not too late to join Blog Action Day. The Blog Action Day website makes it easy to join in, plus they have a very well thought out list of suggested blog topics for those looking for blog post ideas.
So check back with us here on the People to People blog to read about water rights issues on 10/15/2010. Happy almost Blog Action day!
