BMC in talks to fund an eco-report for UK mountaineering

Oh dear guys, I just checked this site and saw the spam damage. I'm not the greatest of forum managers, it must be said. I've de-spammed and added extra security at the sign up stage so hopefully it won't happen again, sorry!On a happier note, I've been talking to the BMC and it looks like they might fund a report looking at how we can start decarbonising the UK mountaineering industry. If it goes ahead it'll start with research into the industry's carbon emissions and then move on to setting…See More

Grow your own veg! (or even better... get someone else to do it for you)

I just found this website called Landshare. If you have some land that you'd like to use to grow food, you can use the site to find people to help you prep the land and plant stuff (and vice versa). I'm trying to rope people in to sorting out my garden (i can't see the ground for nettles...). If you live in the Hackney area and you're keen to grow veg, give me a shout!Check out Landshare: http://landshare.channel4.com/See More

Low carbon climbing in Cornwall

Are soaring fuel prices and the threat of global warming enough to tempt climbers out of their cars? Zara Maung and Julie Black decide it’s time to try some low-carbon climbing.





During our two-week climbing trip to Devon and Cornwall we managed to stump most climbers with one simple question: “How do you get to the climbing here on public transport?”
