Feeding you a little update

January 16th, 2008 by Dave

Hi there, friendly Emma blog subscriber!

We’re moving our feed from:

http://www.myemma.com/blog/?feed=rss2 to http://feeds.feedburner.com/emmaemailblog.

What does this all mean? How will this affect me? Hopefully, it shouldn’t, since the switch isn’t a big deal. In fact, you should continue receiving new posts in your feed like usual. But if you don’t notice anything new from us in the next few days, simply subscribe to the new feed by clicking that big, pretty orange RSS icon on the right.

Of course, if you have any questions, please leave us a comment here.

Thanks!

Give Trees a Chance.

January 9th, 2008 by Kris Wetzel

Plant-It 2020Here at Emma, we’re big fans of trees. From the noblest Redwood to the teeniest Dwarf Willow, we love them all, and we suspect that you, dear reader, do too. With that in mind, we recently forged an exciting partnership with Plant-It 2020 to give our Emma community an easy way to participate in non-harvest reforestation efforts across the globe. The idea is simple - for every new account we open, we’ll plant five trees with the help of Plant-It 2020. Already in the first month of the initiative, we’ve donated the money to plant nearly 1,000 trees in the lovely state of Oregon. And with nearly 300 fabulous organizations joining us each month, we hope to donate more than 15,000 trees this year.

Founded by John Denver in 1992, Plant-It 2020 plants an indigenous tree for every dollar they receive. Their savvy approach to reforestation ensures that the trees they plant will live a long and happy life. They’ll be nurtured in their natural environment with ample light and water, and they will never be harvested. Perhaps they are also lulled to sleep at night by “Rocky Mountain High.” Okay, we can’t guarantee the lullaby, but it’s a nice thought. If you’re curious to learn more about Plant-It 2020, visit their website and subscribe to their email newsletter (powered by Emma, of course).

As we grow as a company, we look forward to forging more partnerships with cool companies dedicated to positive change. We invite you to be directly involved in making our world a more sustainable place. So, go forth and plant some trees, do-gooders! We salute you.
