Green Guide 2009 working group

Posted in

So,

who is going to do what?  Last years the Green Guide (in pdf and MS Word).

Last year we had this structure.  We don't have to have the exact same thing but it is too late to do a total re-write.  Amy has suggested - events section for the next academic year, ie: Climate Change Conference Copenhagen 2009.
I am hoping to move the whole guide from MS Word to Scribus so I am offering to do the final layout and editing (checking links and facts, squeezing sections onto one page).  Pages that I will happily take on are
1, 8-9, 14 (and maybe more if needed).
If you would like to do the final page layout/editing then let me know but I think that job is best left to one person only so it all has the same style.

The deadline will be July 9th (so there is time for final style changes before it is sent to Footprint).

Please say by editing this document and adding your initials to the sections you are prepared (or even keen) to update.  It is better to say too many and if there are multiple people wanting the same section then we can sort that out better than nobody doing it, i.e. if there is someone doing something you are keen on see if they would mind swapping.  Also please get other people who would be interested to join in and then email us.

        1     Introduction (NAB)
        2     How Green is Leeds Uni? (This does not need updating - at least by us)
        3     How to get involved (AC)
At Home:
        4     Your House (OB)
        5     Saving Energy (OB)
        6     Renewable Electricity (OB)
        6     Water (NvV)
        7     Waste... Sort it out!
        8-9  Where to recycle in Leeds (NAB)
Around and About:
        10   Your Local Community
        11   Travel in the Leeds and Beyond
        12-13  Like a Daytrip? Open Spaces Map
Shopping:
        14    Ethical Shopping (NAB)
        15    Health
        16-17 Green Leeds: Local services and shops (NvV)
        18    Food (NvV)
        19    Cleaning
        20    Banking and Money (OB)
        21    Ethical Careers (OB)



Cheers,
P.S.
If you are too busy let us know sooner rather than later so work can be re-allocated.

Hey Nikolai, I emailed you my

Hey Nikolai,

I emailed you my changes, but let me know if you would rather have the changes highlighted and just those sections, rather than the whole document.

I have one update for people and planet the best way to contact is through facebook group

Good luck

Final call to updaters

Hi all,

What great weather we are having.
Just to say that I will start work on any sections not picked to be updated here by tomorrow.


Hope you editing is going well and please send me the stuff by Friday or it can't be included.
It is simplest if you just send me your section in a Word documents, if it goes over a page don't worry I can edit them down to size.  If you are only changing a few words then if you could highlight them that would make it easy for me.  Also if you want to included any new images then please do.  Simple black and white line drawings come out best.

The font used in the document in Gill Sans, if you want it it then ask me here.

If you have any questions then get hold of me. 

Cheers,

Nikolai

Hey am happy to do sections

Colour

Hi,

I have sent Keith an email asking if he wants to update 2.  Also I popped round to Footprint to see the colour samples, I think we should go with the dark green.  If you would like to see and check if that is ok the pop round the Footprint but they need a week to order it so if I don't here back by Friday I will confirm the dark green.

Nikolai

Hey, shall we email Keith

Hey,

shall we email Keith Pitcher to edit 2.?

I will alter 3.

And perhaps if everyone agrees - I could do an explanation page about the COP 15 - and what we can do as students?

I have looked around for some dates of events... but they are all in the air at the moment - so maybe its best not to write it down as a definitive thing, maybe just a: "look out for these events"...?

(Nikolai - for 14. the leeds outside market is not on on a Wed!)

 

Hope your enjoying the sunshine...

Amy
