Part of my reasoning for developing the Feed Your Eco blog is to stay true to the philosophy of Organic Bug- which is to promote a better world by supporting causes that are important to us such as social justice, personal development and sustainable living. This blog is an opportunity for us to help us share our ideals and connect with others who have similar goals.

I was thrilled to find, Bloggers Unite, a community that connects bloggers who want to use their voices to bring awareness on important global issues such as poverty, education, health, human rights and the environment. The community allows us to join or create an event that we are passionate about and gives us a vehicle to spread the word by encouraging other bloggers to add a badge promoting the cause to their blog and help spread the word. On the day of the event, bloggers write a blog post about the cause to spread awareness to others.

The idea came from Antony Berkman; CEO of BlogCatalog.com, a social network and blog directory. Here is a brief (and clever) animated clip that demonstrates the thought and reasoning behind developing this organization.

Be on the lookout for future posts that are inspired from these causes so we can use this blog as a platform to promote positive change in our world. Please get in touch with me via Facebook or Twitter to share your feedback!
