The aim of this website

Is to explore what an individual can do to make a difference. I am absolutely convinced that Global Warming is in progress and that we must do all in our power to reverse the trend. Contact me by commenting on my posts.

Actions that can be taken at five levels: personal, local, state, national and international.

Not in my backyard! [13]

My meeting - "Tea with the vicar" - went extremely well. There was an unexpected bonus: an opportunity to have a public showing of Al Gore's movie "An Inconvenient Truth", of which I am a great fan.

The local businessman let me down again. He left me waiting for 30 minutes and then, after I left the building to go, rushed out to tell me his business partners were still meeting with their solicitor.

However, another businessman phoned me and I spoke with him. He is supporting my position.

I wrote a draft 'Impact Statement' and sent it out to 63 people on my mailing list, so they would have something to use towards their own submissions. A few more people contacted me and went onto my mailing list. A pretty satisfying day. Now I am off to relax.
