June’s Comment Love came close to the $50 thanks to a couple posts that garnered quite a bit of discussion. There were 94 comments this month which totaled $47.00. All $47.00 was donated to Carbonfund.org this month.
With this month’s contribution, we offset 22,210 miles driven from a car with the average miles per gallon (25.2 mpg) or 8.55 tons of C02 according to Carbonfund.org. We broke $50 last month and were just a sliver away this month – I am very happy about that. I think a lot of the responsibility for keeping these numbers up is on me in order to write articles that drive discourse – I will really be pushing that aspect of this site from this point on.
I also have no forgotten about the Good Magazine give-away feature for this month… I will be posting that later today.
Thank you to all who have commented!
Comment Love For All the Months I Flaked Out On
Posted on 6 December, 2007 at 1:35pm with no comments
It has been a very long time since I have followed through on the monthly Comment Love feature. I honestly have no idea how much money as been tallied up through comments, although I know my lack of blogging participation has brought about little comment participation… So as a nice little clear-the-board action, I decided to donate $100 to Carbonfund to take care of all the past months.
With this month’s contribution, we offset 51,655 miles driven from a car with the average miles per gallon (25.2 mpg) or 18.18 tons of C02 according to Carbonfund’s calculator. From this point on, I will be blogging more, which (hopefully) means more comments, which means more donations.
Thanks for the patience and the comments!
