Green & Eco Friendly Leaders Wanted!

Who do you think has the most influence when it comes to creating awareness and taking action for the climate, the planet, the environment and life on earth?  We want you to nominate  those very green and eco-friendly leaders who you think deserve to be on the ABC Carbon 50 honours list.  Unlike the Time Magazine 100 Most Influential, ours is by necessary limited to Australia – or at least those mostly living and working in and for the country. Those who “Think Global, and Act Local”. It’s as easy as replying to this email with your nominations. Closing date is 31 May.To feed your mind and give you ideas, keep reading. What are people like Will Steffen and Tony Blair up to? What’s happening in places as far apart as Vietnam and New Zealand? How hot is it really getting and what’s the word from the US and Australia? Electric vehicles and energy efficiency are in the news again. IT energy use and underwater reef research is considered. And in the end we hear from a high powered panel of experts on what progress there is towards a low carbon economy.   It’s the deal.
