Climate change update
A bunch of studies in 2009 said we are on track for warming of 5-7C || Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere rose 2.2ppm (parts per million) in 2007 to 383ppm - 350ppm is regarded as safe. (Global Carbon Project, 2008). || Victoria's emissions are up 30 per cent; NSW's up 7 per cent since 1980 (Climate Group, 2008). See our Climate Change section for Australian climate change links.

Fresh vegetables?
A UK study says "fresh" vegetables lose up to 45% of their nutrients before we buy them, with many items in supermarkets up to 16 days old. For real fresh food, grow your own or buy direct from local farmers. See our Garden, Eating Local and Community Supported Agriculture sections.

Green blogs
Read our EcoBlog for a fresh slant on green news, or see our Australian green blogs section for more Australian green blogs.

Looking for non-Australian information?
If you want to find international green resources, we suggest Green Pages (global), Green Directory (UK) or EcoBusiness Links (US). Or see our Overseas Sites category on the left for more non-Australian sites.
