Ecorazzi

For this week’s Twitter Thursday, we want to expand your horizons with some subscriptions to the wonderful magazine WEND.

At first we thought “WEND” was some kind of obscure acronym, but instead it’s been revealed to be an obscure Old English word meaning “to proceed on or along”. That’s pretty fitting for a magazine that inspires both adventure and activism, chronicling people around the world making a difference for the planet. From their website,

Wend is a forum for real people, writing real stories about real adventures and real environmental issues. As an independent media group, active in both environmental activism and the outdoors, we realize that part of going off the beaten path means making sure the path doesn’t get beaten. We are a magazine that understands that to advocate for the majesty of nature, we’d be hypocritical to print on paper that comes from destroying it, and thus, every issue of Wend is printed on locally sourced, FSC certified paper.

We should note that the entire mag is also printed with soy-based inks. If that still doesn’t suit your green hearth, you can also read their online digital edition in lieu of paper.

For today’s giveaway, WEND has generously donated 4 subscriptions. We’ll be giving two away on Twitter and two more here on the site. There’s also a special discount running for those that don’t end up winning this week’s contest. Just enter the discount code “ecorazzi” on their subscription page and receive a year for only $18 — 40% off the retail price.
