		<title>Planting Trees Slows Down Drivers</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This green and pleasant land, in our opinion, isn&#8217;t green enough. We&#8217;re not just talking about environmental and energy-saving initiatives but also the fact that this country was once covered in trees and mankind, in his infinite &#8220;wisdom&#8221;, has seen to remove so many of them. However, Norfolk County Council have been planting trees in [...]]]></description>

		<title>Our New Smartpower Meter</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Ignore the name on the device (We&#8217;re thinking of going to our friends at Ecotricity for their green gas scheme) but this is our new smartpower meter. OK, we&#8217;ve had it a few weeks now, but this little device is a lifesaver. OK, moneysaver. Energysaver.
Since plugging this meter we&#8217;ve monitored our electricity consumption, which is [...]]]></description>

		<title>B&amp;Q Green Lightbulb Cavern</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I hadn&#8217;t been in to my local branch of B&#38;Q, the DIY store, for many months but, being just down the road from my office, I popped in today to get a light bulb for my fridge and was impressed with the sheer range of energy saving lightbulbs they had on offer.

		<title>Energenie Automatic AV Standby Shutdown</title>
		<description><![CDATA[If, like us, you&#8217;re one of those households with a TV, satellite receiver, games console and other devices plugged in to one socket on the wall, you&#8217;ll have probably noticed how inconvenient it can be trying to save energy by constantly trying to plug/unplug/switch off all the time.

		<title>Google Wind Farms</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So we&#8217;ve had Google Chrome, Google Buzz, Google Wave, Google Labs, Google Docs, Google Mail and now Google Wind Farms.
OK, not really, that last one we made up, but it might as well be real seeing as Google, the search giant, has invested $38.8 million in a wind farm (approximately £25.3 million). Apparently this is the first [...]]]></description>

		<title>Emission Equality Congestion Charge Campaign</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve just had an interesting note from Volvo Cars UK regarding the Emission Equality Congestion Charge campaign.
As you may already know, London has a Congestion Charge which aims to limit the amount of traffic in busy London streets. The benefits are numerous and the reduction of traffic is beneficial in many ways. London residents see &#38; hear [...]]]></description>
