Copenhagen in Pictures


Ole and the Bigger Picture team are helping bring discussions to life and hopefully a more successful conclusion by bringing their visualisation skills to bear inside the Cop15 process : check it out at www.cop15visualised.com - the site also features a daily WWF broadcast featuring them.

Another day, another talk

This one is with a bunch of creative sustainability friends and friends of friends and is all about redesigning life. Do drop me an email (or leave your contacts in the comments) if you are in London thursday and want to pop along.



ps have stuck the detailed press release text into the comments.

Conversations with Green Gurus



The film that goes with the book has just gone up on YouTube. And the individual lengthier film interviews will follow soon on the GreenGurus channel. It's a fantastic book anyway - I actually recommended it last week to a friend who said she wanted THE one book to read about green. It's stuffed with wisdom, quotable insights and personal stories from some of the most inspiring people in the field (and yours truly!)

Speaking of which myself, John Elkington and Paul Dickinson are speaking in a 'Faith and Climate Change' debate organised by the Green Guru authors at the liberal Jewish synagogue tomorrow night December 2nd, (28 St John’s Wood Road, London NW8 7HA • 6.45pm for 7pm - it's free to all comers if anyone local fancies a night of deep debate after work!)

I'm also rumoured to be interviewing another Green Guru contributor Hunter Lovins (fantastic lady, amazing hats too) at the Cineforum event Friday.

Finally do check out the Green gurus book itself here

Go #RED


Today is world AIDS day. To help raise awareness twitter is turning every tweet that contains the hashtag #red red (ie it appears in dark/light red coloured type). This was sponsored by Nike who are kind of trailblazing in the cause related, quiet, supportive marketing domain this last year (see also TheGirlEffect). You can also turn your tweet red by using the Nike linked hashtag #laceupsaveslives I love it anyway & wish we'd thought of something similar for Tweehive.
