There is no wonder the majority of people world wide are suffering from Environmental Confusion.

The news and the media in general provide us with such conflicting evidence and opinions that it is hard to know which way to jump.

On the one hand we hear that online, the “buzz” on environmental issues is up 169% from a year ago, and suggests that there is heightened awareness of terms such as “green” and “climate change” (according to Neilson’s BuzzMetrics).  A lot of this is due to Al Gore’s documentary “An Inconvenient Truth”, since which environmental issues have been high on the agenda in blogs and forums alike.

On the other hand we hear that companies are just paying lip service to environmental issues. Many are not taking the issue seriously and of the companies who do have a board level responsibility for energy and the environment only 45% have a program to cut their carbon footprint.

However – we "lesser mortals" are more than capable of making our own minds up. Each one of us has the ability to improve our own awareness of environmental issues. Some may be so bold as to say we have a duty, if only for the future of our children and grandchildren.

It is now possible online to work out your own carbon footprint and then decide what you are going to do to offset it
