This issue of abc carbon express represents the first with a focus entirely on energy – renewable energy and energy efficiency, at the same time it will continue promote the Energy 2020 Asia campaign.The plan is to continue to produce an issue of the e-newsletter every fortnight – we will go to four a month if support is there – and each issue will have a special focus or theme.

The next issue, by mid-February, will focus on sustainability – for business, for events, for cities, for everyone.

Before the end of February, the third in the series, will be themed around green purchasing, responsible procurement and sustainable supply chains. We will also focus on the work and activities of the Green Purchasing network where-ever it operates in the world.

The fourth and final edition in the series will come back to the roots of abc carbon express – climate change, carbon reduction, looking at causes, solutions and not forgetting deforestation, air pollution and related issues and opportunities for change.

We are looking for supporters, partners and sponsors who can help make this happen. Businesses or organisations who can support this unique communications channel financially – by focussing just a fraction of your marketing budget on one of our “special issues”.   Please contact me directly if you would like to identify with any one of our four themed issues. -  Ken Hickson
