It’s actually quite easy being green, says Selwyn’s Green

hy hello, fancy seeing you here! We’ve managed to commandeer some space in Kiwi, so we thought we’d let you know what we’re up to, how we’ve been doing, why we haven’t been answering your calls... After much deliberation, we’ve decided to rebrand the whole of next year to ‘2013: Year of the Green’. This is mainly in the hope that we poach internet traffic from students searching for weed in the Cambridge area, you know, like the Snowball did with Eastern European transsexual pornography. Selwynsnowball.com anybody? ANYWAY, we want to challenge you to make one green new year’s resolution. It can be as big or as small as you like, regarding environmentalism, tax fairness, or human rights, etc. Any of that stuff. Here are a few of ours: • Choose a high-street shop with a particularly bad environmental record and stop shopping there. • Go vegetarian, pescetarian, or vegan. • Instead of taking out polystyrene from the canteen, take some Tupperware. • Pour orange juice into a glass at brunch, rather than getting a bottle of Innocent. • Start wearing more hemp. • Turn off lights, regardless of who is in the room, or what they’re doing.

RECYCLING If you fancy getting proactive in your kitchen, or maybe you just like pretending that you live in a hippy commune, make your corridor your own set of bins. Bang up a rota and some passive aggressive notices and you’re well on your way to world peace. If you’re uber keen and you want a cheeky food waste bin for your kitchen on the DL, get in touch, preferably through some sort of extravagant code.

GET INVOLVED If you want to get involved or let us know what you think, what you want, how you want it, how fast, for how long and in what position, get in touch! Alternatively, send us some hate mail. Green team luvin’ xxx
