Dear Carrotmobbers
I herewith announce the first official Carrotmob in Switzerland Basel. This event on August 7th will last from 10:00 a.m. until 9:00 p.m. The Alban Market will invest total of 50% of the sales volume attained during this time-period for energy efficiency- and environmental protection- measures in his store. It doesn’t matter what time of day you do your grocery shopping, as long as you do them in the Alban Market on that day! However, we will try to gather a crowd of people between 6 p.m.. and 8 p.m. for the media. Entertainment and excitement is guaranteed. This sensational experience will be accompanied by swiss television (around lunch time) and the print media.
So let us show Switzerland, where the city with the largest ecological awareness lies! It depends on each and everyone of you! You are the Carrotmob!
Please memorize the Carrotmob rules:
Carrotmob is local.
Do not travel from all over the country to Basel to attend the first Carrotmob in Switzerland. Surely there will be a Carrotmob in your city soon (or organize one yourself!)
No cars.
Take the “Trämli” (tram) or your bicycle as transportation (should be clear to everyone, but must be said so that critics have less arguments.)
Buy only what you really need.
This event will take place on a friday so that you can buy your groceries for the weekend and can save yourself the agony of visiting your large supermarket on a saturday.
Bring your own bag.
Bring your own shopping bag. The natural recourse used to produce polyethylene bags is crude oil.
Respect the neighborhood.
Take care of your surrounding environment. Don’t leave anything lying around. Deposit your Beer cans right around the block at the collecting point at the corner Klybeck- Dreirosenstrasse.
We are looking forward to this spectacular experience with you. Tell your friends and let everyone know!
