The Carbon Trust was set up by the government some five years ago with a target remit to reduce UK carbon emissions some 4.4 million tons by 2010.
So far it doesn't seem to be doing too well, as reported by epolitix.com.
Oh well, it only received funding of £100 million last year. Perhaps it needs a funding increase?

Sorry, I had to leap in on the page here. This is EXACTLY what I have been banging on about.
I don't dispute there is 'some' call for 'some' support of 'some' initiatives, but what the hell is the actual enviROI+ to the planet and our kids of such as this amount of money going to guys like these... and countless others... to blow on....what!????
Just think what could have been done with £100M in tangibles as opposed to endless pointless ads in the Sundays and every banner ad I can think of.
If I had run my media spend like this I'd have been busted to the mailroom!!!!
From the BBC to here, the word 'Trust' is fast becoming shorthand for anything you should do but..

I believe in freedom of speech. But I also don't like bullies on blogs, even verbal ones, as they can drive away those with something valid to say... or offer.
Subjective is fine, but well argued and substantiated is even better. Calm and polite tops. Anything that crosses my personal line will not go up. There may be reasons given, but not guaranteed.
I'm not too keen on 'Anon' as a handle (and the content usually explains why), so if that's what you opt for it may not make it. Sorry.
