Green Tracks

"Blue Is The New Green" is one of our catchphrases at Blue Circle and we do love eco-friendly initiatives! That, for example, is why we went to the Docu-Sign system of electronic document delivery and reduced our paper use by 60%. Needless to say, when I saw this cool little contest which advocates and encourages recycling efforts, I though it worth sharing.
Our friends at The Karo Group are helping their client, Alberta Beverage Container Recycling Corporation (ABCRC) celebrate an amazing achievement by Albertans, who recycled an incredible 2 billion beverage containers last year!! That's right....2 billion!!
In collaboration with CBC Music, ABCRC brought together 3 Alberta bands -The Dudes, Woodpigeon, and Reuben and The Dark - asking them to create instruments using empty beverage containers and perform one of their songs, which CBC filmed. CBC Music will be hosting the videos on Green Tracks and will run a contest asking Albertans to vote on their favourite. The winning band will get to donate $5000.00 to the charity of their choice and voters will be entered into a weekly draw for a Simon and Patrick guitar.
Click on the Green Tracks link, check out the great tunes, and vote for your favourite! Maybe you'll win the guitar and start your own band!
And...keep up the fantastic recycling effort people!!
