I hate recycling. I do it but I hate it. I recycle paper, bottles and sometimes I even do cans – but I have this niggling suspicion that it does absolutely no good at all (and I think I even heard someone on the news saying that the recycling process is worse for the environment than dumping). Does anyone kno...

http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/traveltax/ Well, yes, they can. But only if you’re part of a Labour government who wants to bring in road pricing. Now as we all know, motorists are the new Satan, every one of us personally responsible for global warming, for congestion, for wanting to wheel spin on the heads of smal...

We’re all going green and reducing our carbon footprint right? But now everyone is at it and there is no space to park my bike outside the office. How do I get them to put a couple of extra bike stands on the pavement?

Every morning I pick up a Metro at my station, have enough time on the train to read about 5 pages, and then rather than leaving it lying around to litter the train, make a point of carefully folding it back to how it should look, and dropping it neatly back into the Metro trays at Cannon Street station. This I hop...

However, yesterday evening I was sitting in ...

I honestly couldn’t give a flying toss about the environment, carbon footprints, or ozone layers. I worry, sometimes, that this makes me a bad person. But I just can’t bring myself to care. Sure, I’m not there in the garden spraying my deodorant into the air and cackling wildly. But neither do I feel the remotest se...

I’m on the TFL email list and they sent through this today. I know what an opinionated lot we all are, especially when it comes to London and how it should be run, so thought others would appreciate it. ‘Every year, the State of London Debate brings Londoners together to discuss key issues affecting t...

I’ve become a bit obsessed with rubbish lately. Obsessive about packaging, reusing and recycling. So, I’m in favour of banning the disposable shopping bag in London. I know it will take time to get used to and we’ll all get really annoyed when we’re out shopping but can’t have or hav...
