So what’s new this week?
Peter at Reluctant Greenie tells us what to do with that DVD collection when you’ve decided you want the space for something else, or have gone completely digital as he did. He did it as part of Planet Ark’s Green Resolutions campaign, which might be handy for those of you who need a bit of support for keeping your own resolutions.
Surprise! Economists have reached a consensus on how much it will cost us to fix climate change. Not that you’d know it from reading the newspaper, since they’d rather report on people arguing about something. Less than one half of one percent of GDP per nation should do it, which really doesn’t seem like much of a hardship to me. (via Grist)
Meanwhile, Australian economists are speaking out against Rudd’s flawed ETS. The open letter and signatories can be seen at Crikey’s Rooted blog.
At long last, mobile phone companies have agreed to make a universal charger that will fit any model. No more groups of wall-warts clumped at your power points! Plus a reduction in electronic waste, which is great.
That’s it for today - have a great weekend!
