BP on Google, 22nd of February!

November 26th, 2006

Hi all.

Just a quick note to tell you that a petition has been set up by Canadian Rovers asking for Google to commemorate Baden Powell’s birthday by changing their logo on the 22nd of February each year. The petition currently has over 44,000 signatures from Scouts all around the world, so it’s pretty obvious that we want it done.

To sign the petition, click below:

For Australians: Getup.org.au

November 4th, 2006

Here’s something useful for any Australian who wants to bring about change. The website is called GetUp.org.au. Go there and sign up for GetUp alerts which tell you about upcoming protest marches. It is one of the best tools for getting large groups of people together to do marches, with over 100,000 people registered. How is this related to scouting? Well, the scouting movement is dedicated to helping the environment. GetUp’s organised marches (including the recent ones in Brisbane & Sydney) often protest our complacency in fighting climate change.

The scouts had a pretty good night, although I didn’t check on exactly what they did.
