Come to TransportCamp on October 30th.

My friend Jeremy Osborn invited me to an interesting event called TransportCamp: A Sustainable Transportation Unconference.

Here’s how it is described on the website:

TransportCamp is an unconference, created for exploring the following theme:

How can transportation be a catalyst for building more vibrant communities in the Lower Mainland?

I love this BarCamp model applied to areas in need of collaborative thinking. I’m signing up.

Cost: $25.00

Here’s where you register. See you there.

Go up on the roof with Carol.

I have written before about the immensely inspiring Carol Schillios. Right now, she is living on a roof for as long as it takes to raise $1 million to support women and their families in developing countries.

What does she want? Simply put, she wants you to give at least one dollar to the Fabric of Life Foundation, and accompany your donation with some small act of kindness.

So for the love of Pete, let’s get Carol off the roof!
