Tim Flannery made something click for me when I was fortunate enought to hear him speak at the Be The Change conference in London, Spring 2006.

He said climate change was a good old-fasioned air pollution problem: "We're really good at solving those," he added.

From being overwhelmed by the challenge of climate change, I think that's what nudged me into my first few steps of actually doing something about it.

Here to the left you can see the global warming article I published in July 2006 after hearing Tim and Ron Oxburgh speak, and the sometimes ascerbic correspondence that column unleashed in the magazine.

Thanks to Tim Flannery, Ron Oxburgh, Oystein Dahle and otheres for their advice on the replies to the climate sceptics who wrote in.

At wingo's website, you can follow the progress of our little association here which aims to build a model of successful, sustainable local development. At times it's very work-a-day, but we've had a lot of laughs, and it's led to some very interesting connections being made.

Wingo is the project we started here on the archipelago outside Gothenburg to create a model of winning sustainable local development. You can visit wingo's website here. The website of our wind park has only just been registered.

I give a talk about my energy perspectives on climate change and about the small steps we systemtically take each week to feel Mia and I are doing our part.
