SUMMARY FOCUS
Climate Deal Day is a project to do deals to make the world a little better. January 26, 2011. Because everyone can do a climate deal.
Base Action:
1. Social media to encourage anyone to do a climate deal with themselves, their company, or a group.
2. Confirmed co-working days in Davos and London on 26 JAN to do climate deals. Companies and leaders will be invited to meet, collaborate, announce their own climate related deals.
Who knows about it? Friends in some of the biggest companies and organizations on the planet, who are already working to share, support, coordinate, innovate and promote CDD. (that's you)
Goal Action: A plethora of individual, organization, and networking deals around climate on this day, powered by social media and vectors spreading the word, linked to high level deal push by YOU.
Release: CDD will begin with a FB Status Update and a Tweet from @ClimateDealDay at Noon on Friday, the end of COP16.
Mission: Save 1 Gigaton in 1 Day
Positive Shift: All deals have value - whether big or small, so anyone can participate.
PROGRESS
Today we met to map out some strategy and start to identify leaders and facilitators. Our David Kroodsma will help on social media voicing, and the Youtube, Facebook and Twitter channels are live and ready to go for Friday. #CDD @ClimateDealDay Shortlinks: http://hub.vg/TCDD and http://hub.vg/FBCDD.
We are working on identifying a group of leaders to help validate project metrics with the goal to announce them on Friday to this working group and possibly wider.
Over 30 other collaborators from many places are preparing their thoughts on how to take part.
Tony Flohr (Davos) and Mariama Simba (London) will be leading coordination on the coworking events.
Logos: Basic, early stage logos are now available at http://hub.vg/CDDLogos. Do run and innovate on these base components.
Anyone can create climate deals, and thus we will be working with Facilitators to create Climate Deals that exist around many topics. Early work can be seen on this at http://hub.vg/climatedeals
If you want to create such a deal or become a Facilitator, please email [email protected] between now and January 21st.
We've identified 5 key targets we would like to know about this project: EBAY, Starbucks, Regus, Amazon, Groupon - but don't have strong contacts there. If you do, could u please forward?
We think our Icon logo may be a double helix - to signify deals, pairs, and connections, tied to the idea of biological diversity. Do you like this???
VOLUNTEER PAIRS
To gather support for the project, http://hub.vg/CDDPairs will list pairs of people who support CDD in some way. This simple list will grow over time and be a main Twitter/FB content update mechanism, with regular tie-ins. We hope to create some great pairs around this idea, and if you, your CEO or a Celeb want to get listed, please let us know and we'll add you in the lineup. Its first come first serve so the sooner you submit, the better!
NEXT MEETING
The next meeting will be at Hub Cancun Tomorrow Thursday at 11AM, with a draft of the announcement available at http://hub.vg/CDD for comment and review. SEND ANYONE.
8 Villa Albatros, Cancun, Mexico
Please leak, push, and forward to other LEADERS LIKE YOU
