Some will notice that I have changed the title of this thread. I have done so for no other reason that I hated the original from day one... and I hope you did too.

Ever wonder where the world’s biggest wind farms projects are located? Wonder no more.

Swami Ramdev threatens ‘protest and political ruin’ on India’s political elite if they do not ‘purify the chronically polluted Ganges’,. Take note. This kind of people power (we do live in a democracy after all) is the only way we can see global politicians making significant progress over the coming years.

China continues to defy categorisation – the world’s biggest polluter is set to become the worlds leader in energy efficient technology – that’s if this article in the NY Times is anything to go by.

While the American Congress continues to fall short.

Which is a pity because… ‘The renewable energy laboratory estimates that if all the heat trapped up to 2 miles under the U.S. were tapped, it could generate enough electricity to meet all of the country's power needs for 30,000 years.’ No. Seriously.

Staying on the subject of the worlds 2 superpowers, ‘A Change in The Wind’ let’s us in on the real Olympic Competition going on right behind the scenes.

If a social network site like Facebook can organize millions of people every day doing nothing particularly interesting, why don’t we build one for the fragmented environmentalist community? That’s the question posed by Celsias writer Scott Boutwell. Now there’s an idea Ed.

In Western Society, its hard to imagine the problems faced by the global community from unclean water. So head over to the World Water Week site and catch up.

Paris’ hugely successful bike sharing project inspires officials to move it up a notch with a new car sharing scheme.

And with the massive rise in electric bike sales in Europe and China, its seems as if at least some people are realising that 2 wheels indeed are better than four – and not just for environmental reasons.

‘Great’ odds, depending on your point of view, on an ice free artic by 2020, ‘more than half a century earlier than virtually every model has been predicting’.

Cant think of a better reason to start making yourself heard. So….
