Earn your green points at Greenopolis

A new green social network has been launched (in beta at the mo) – you join up, get access to a load of environmental tools and information and get to earn green points which you can then use to save money through the Greenopolis partners.

The site mixes education, interaction and collaboration for on and offline activities. It hopes to bring people together to make incremental and positive environmental changes in their every day lives.

Plan A

Marks and Spencer are 12 months into their environmental campaign called Plan A. They’ve just launched this initiative with Oxfam – quite good idea….

The Exchange is designed to both raise money for Oxfam’s work to tackle poverty and injustice and to reduce the one million tonnes of clothing sent by the public to landfill in the UK each year. As part of the M&S and Oxfam Clothes Exchange, customers making a donation of M&S clothes to Oxfam will receive a voucher worth £5/€7, valid for one month, to use with their next purchase of £35/€50 or more on clothing, homeware or beauty products at M&S. The Exchange will be trialled for six months and reviewed on an ongoing basis, and from 28th January vouchers will be given out in exchange for M&S clothes in Oxfam’s 790 stores across the UK and Republic of Ireland.
