What a load of old rubbish

Every day hundreds of animals die from mistaking our litter for food, or by getting trapped inside some. If everyone picked up one peice of litter per day the world would be a much nicer place!!!!:)

Join the dark side!

It is a little known fact that doing just one google search uses the same amount of power as boiling two cups of tea. Strangely alot of this energy is used lighting up the screen. To cut down on this try using blackle search or black google instead.

In the bagining.......

Saving the world comes in many forms and one of my favourites is morsbagging. "morsbags" are a great organisation that hand makes bags out of scrap materials then hands them out to unsuspecting shoppers outside suppermarkets to be used again and again and again and again.....
