Some pics from Hyde Park Calling

Here are a few pics from the Aerosmith gig in Hyde Park at the weekend, where we were spreading the word on climate change…

In the park with Aerosmith!

EarthFireIce made its first public appearance at the weekend, at the Hyde Park Calling gig in London. Three stages featuring bands such as Aerosmith, Peter Gabriel and Crowded House attracted nearly as much attention as our groovy new octagonal tent. Around 75,000 people attended over the weekend - and we reckon that most of them squeezed into our tent during the torrential […]

Scientific report says Earth is in “imminent peril”

Six scientists from some of the leading scientific institutions in the United States have issued a stark warning that the threat of global warming is much greater - and nearer - than the UN’s recent IPCC report has estimated (as if the IPCC report wasn’t bad enough).

Bush’s commitment on global warming… to do nothing

As far as I can see, the latest G8 meeting was a complete failure in terms of getting George Bush to take action on global warming. Despite saying that he would seriously consider proposals to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases, there’s no commitment to actually do anything. Even more worryingly, he says he won’t do anything unless China does it too. 
How Bush […]

World Environment Day

Today was World Environment Day…apparently. Is it just me or was this somewhat of an underwhelming day? Perhaps my expectations were misaligned, there i was thinking there would be huge fanfare from governments and businesses all jumping on, lots of events, lots of media coverage. Perhaps there was in places, and in certain countries, but […]

41% of people surveyed in the UK say they are doing something to tackle climate change.
The remaining 59% of people not taking any action against climate change consists of:
