Dear Contact,
Global warming: warmer and
wetter? April 2007 was the warmest April ever in the UK-
based on the Central England Temperature (CET) records dating
back to 1659.
Counting Carbon. Suddenly all the governments of the world seem
genuinely interested in carbon dioxide emissions. We put
it down to Davros. And we reckon there is going to be an
awful lot of debate about carbon emissions, omissions,
footprints, labels, offsets etc. While this reduces all
environmental matters to a carbon molecule, it does
enable people to do more than they felt with
"sustainable development". They can measure, monitor,
count, calculate carbon. |

Carbon is easier to measure and manage than
"sustainability". We want everybody - especially those
at work in organisations trying to demonstrate carbon
reductions, to be confident enough to find out what is
going on, and know what to do. We are opening a new site to help
them, called "Carbon Counter" (will be
www.carboncounter.info from July 07) which you can see
now at www.epaw.co.uk/carbon |

Sustainable Food Site - Our sustainable food site,
remains No 1 when you google "sustainable food",
despite being bumped off for a week or two, and DEFRA
breathing down neck! We provide up to date information of
developments particularly in the UK. The Google
muncher-monster LIKES text but LOVES links, so please help us
to remain at No 1 by adding a link to us from your site. Thank
you.
