There's a new addition to the side of the Matsu Bonsai blog.  It's the Brighter Planet's 350 Challenge badge.  I've added it here to show that I support green initiatives.

What is the 350 Challenge?  Here's a description from their site:

What is Brighter Planet’s 350 Challenge, exactly?

The 350 Challenge is a small way to show your support to fight climate change. The more bloggers that get our badge, the better. Thousands of readers will know that the climate movement is spreading far beyond the typical "environmental" realm and into the norm.

...we'll offset 350 pounds of carbon in your name! 350 pounds! That's like flicking off 100 lightbulbs for a day. Or going two full weeks without your car!

So visit the Brighter Planet's 350 Challenge site today!
