Summer's officially here! (at least in the northern hemisphere!) Pick a city or town - anywhere in the world, and name 8 things you love to do there in the summertime.
Choose one of these guide ideas:
<ul style="background:#ffe;padding:.5em;margin-bottom:1em;">
 <li>Concert Venues</li>
 <li>Beaches, Lakes, Ponds, and Swimming Pools</li>
 <li>Ice Cream Shops</li>
 <li>Parks, Mountains, Hikes</li>
 <li>Or anything else you enjoy doing in the summer!</li>
</ul>
How does this work? Name 8 places and we'll donate 30 lb carbon offsets to offset carbon in our atmosphere. You can help people discover fun things to do and help a great cause at the same time.

 Carbon offsets can be purchased from places like <a href="http://www.terrapass.com">Terrapass.com</a> and <a href="http://www.carbonfund.org/">Carbonfund.org</a>
