The trouble is, people say they are green, but they aren't willing to compromise their comfy lifestyles.

Yesterday was World Environment Day , so we were bombarded with emails all day at work about different initiatives to save the planet, and then we received an email reminding us that our air conditioning system was being upgraded at the weekend!

Exactly. It's only excessive in their eyes if it's something that doesn't appeal to them, e.g. flashy cars conflict with their outdated socialist mentality.

'A source at Plane Stupid said: 'Katrina is doing proper networking, travelling around the universities of America trying to get support. She probably should have taken the boat, but the boat cost £4,000 and the plane was so cheap.'


So she chose the less green CHEAPER way of travel what a ****.

I'm not a fan of 4x4's but I always find it hypocritical when you get someone who drives a 1000cc Saxo or something like that condone 4X4's saying they are gas guzzlers yet then themselves have 3-4 holidays a year involving flying everywhere.
