I shall overcome my excitement over Obama winning the Nobel Peace Prize to tell you about the global online event going out tonight, starring all your old eco-favourites - Al Gore, U2, Peter Gabriel, Yann Arthus-Bertrand, the Cirque du Soleil. This is the reason that Guy Laliberté, founder of the Cirque du Soleil, is up in the space station at the moment, not just because he's a very rich clown who can treat himself to a holiday in space. It kicks off at 8pm EDT (New York time - 2 am in London) and is being broadcast online. So if you're still up and about in the middle of the night, fire up your 'pooter and join the party.
NASA crashed its LCROSS mission into the moon's surface this morning in an attempt to find water, which is certainly not coincidental. Why haven't this event and the organisation behind it not been given more publicity? There has been no coverage on British or French TV of the One Drop Foundation or the worldwide online event this evening. We should be told!
Scrumpy, my eco-warrior friend, practises what he preaches. He saves an enormous amount of water by not washing. It's a sacrifice, but somebody's gotta do it. I urge you to conserve water, unlike this inconsiderate woman:
