350 and WWF

We had a great meeting with some of the team at WWF yesterday and they are fully supportive of what 350 are up to and interested working on some joint projects in the future.

We explored some initial such as

- a joint campaign to get lights turned off in wellington office buildings - WWF has some connections with property managers from Earth Hour and 350 has lots of switched on people who could knock on their doors and try and get something happening in this space. It would be awesome to point to some direct emissions savings we have achieved through our actions and this would address one of the prime criticisms WWF receive about Earth Hour being only for one hour.
- a series of dialogues between some of the older more experienced environmental campaigners and the fresh faces in 350 - New Zealand has a long history of inspirational environmental action and we could co-host some weekend workshop/dialogue type events to bring the different groups to gether and see what amazing seeds grow.

These are just some thoughts so if you have any ideas that excite you about a joint project with WWF then post them up and we may be able to get something fun and effective off the ground.
