And in addition to encourage you to bundle up (because we now live in a tundra), WWF is encouraging you to take a photo and help lower the thermostat (by wearing a sweater instead of turning the heat up).<\/p>\n<p>(Whaaaaaaaat?)<\/p>\n<p>Let me answer that: February 6 marks National Sweater Day, so in celebration, you&#39;re encouraged to snap a selfie of yourself in a sweater, indicating you&#39;ve also turned down the heat in your house. Those selfies will then go on to be part of a virtual sweater being knit &quot;in real time.&quot; So every time a #selfie is uploaded onto Twitter, Facebook, or Instagram showcasing said sweaters with the hashtag, #SweaterDay, another piece of the &quot;virtual sweater&quot; comes together, which you can check out at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sweaterday.ca\/\">sweaterday.ca<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Scientists around the world have confirmed that climate change will have serious negative impacts on nature, the economy, and society,&quot; explains David Miller, WWF President and CEO. &quot;As Canadians, we need to improve our efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and energy conservation is the quickest, easiest, and most cost-effective way to do it.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>So with that in mind, start snapping #selfies and sweater up on National Sweater Day! A little goes a long way.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lower the thermostat with WWF<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":67426,"featured_media":78125,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[64593],"tags":[75390,79044,78871,79045],"class_list":["post-55419","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-daily-whisper","tag-instagram","tag-danielle-scutt","tag-pam-anderson","tag-nanette-lepore"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>A Selfie for a Good Cause! - 29Secrets<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Celebrate National Sweater Day with WWF!\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"noindex, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"A Selfie for a Good Cause! - 29Secrets\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Celebrate National Sweater Day with WWF!\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/digiblocks.ca\/29secrets\/pop-culture\/daily-whisper\/selfie-good-cause\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"29Secrets\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/29Secrets\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2014-01-29T16:26:08+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/digiblocks.ca\/29secrets\/wp-content\/uploads\/sweater.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"600\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"800\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Anne T.
