3 months ago - 1 answer
The most environmentally friendly cars are electric, but these still aren’t viable for extended motorway driving or as an only family car due to low speeds and recharging times. However, your choice of car can still have a significant impact on the environment. If you choose wisely, you can still drive from A to Z with a relatively clear conscience.
Many people forget that the more ‘green’ your car is, the lower your petrol bill will be. So, this is a good list for those looking for an economical car as well as those trying to be green while still owning a set of wheels!
In the UK, the top green cars are:

Lemuel Benedict's original version of the Eggs Benedict is said to have included toast and ham rather than a muffin and bacon but it is the muffin and bacon version which read more...

This was recognised as a serious deficiency and, in 2000, a project got underway to undertake a full accounting of the planet's species. The project is called the Catalogue of Life and you can visit the project's website at www.catalogueoflife.org
The website allows you to search the accumulated data interactively, either through entering search terms or drilling down through a classification tree.
To compile the data, experts in specific areas of biology from around the world collaborate. As of early 2007 just over 1 million species in total have been entered into the database. When the project is complete, which is expected to happen n 2011, it is anticipated that just under 2 million species read more...

Sloping platforms, heights and rabid squirrels hiding in chimneys, is there any wonder why this gig is on the list of most dangerous ways to make a living? Injuries are common, ranging from backs thrown out lifting heavy stacks of shingles to hand and fingers hacked and slashed with the sharp edged tools of the trade.
The injuries are not the reason the fellows fixing your leaky roof are on this list though. Gravity is behind this occupation’s danger rating. Not only is there the risk of falling read more...
