Alas, it is my duty to inform you that some progressive NGO's are, well... challenged in the publicity department.

A case in point: did you know that tomorrow is Arctic Action Day? Okay, the folks that peruse this particular nook of the blogosphere are a bit more news savy than most, so you may have heard that. But you'd pretty much be the few, the proud.

After I read about Arctic Action Day on ANWRNews I dutifully wrote to the AWL, and yesterday got my shiny new Activist Kit in the mail (sorry, no decoder ring). It has all sorts of helpful advice about publicizing an event. Except for this one which I'll throw into the mix: start your publicity campaign a month in advance of your event.

That said, I will, as the old saw goes "go whole hog including the postage" and put together an event including a screening of Being Caribou, the documentary on the Arctic Region that's been getting a lot of attention from the indie film crowd.
