Nstar Green
I had signed us up for http://www.nstaronline.com/residential/customer_information/nstar_green/nstar_green.asp back when it was first available. Yesterday I received a little thank you note from the company with a small green flag reading "gone green" to put in my front lawn.
My boss has been making fun of me for my green efforts, so I brought the letter in this morning to show him just how green I've been. I considered bringing the flag to wave around in the office when I'm taunted, but I stuck it in my lawn on the way to the car this morning instead. I've earned a new nickname now ("greenie"), but I'll take it!
You can see a picture of the flag and text of the letter in this blog post http://writinglife3.blogspot.com/2008/10/gone-green-thanks-nstar.html , as well as this writer's concern about the cost of making and mailing said flags. Its definitely a form of advertising for the company and I have no delusions of their well wishes being anything less. The question is I guess, is advertising going to be necessary to get folks to move over to this way of thinking? I tend to agree.

that is wonderful! We were considering doing that. We should. I'll remind Jeremy (he is in charge of the NSTAR bill).
I can't imagine why any educated person would make fun of you for going green.

We make fun of each other for everything around here - its all in fun. :) Any office that has a rewards system around the boss giving people monkey stickers is one that you have to take lightly. :)
