New Year, New Beginnings

A happy New Year to one and all. So how are every one's New Year resolutions going? How about adopting the government initiative on reducing your carbon footprint by cycling to work twice a week - not only would you be doing your bit for the environment but also helping to work off that Christmas pud! There are many ways that people can get involved; sharing a lift to work, making one less car journey a week.

Anyone who has read my cycling blog (I'm afraid I haven't kept it up - but how's this for a resolution on the fly - I'll do a monthly update!) will know that I started cycling to work a few years ago. I'm afraid to say the weather has put me off a bit lately. However at BrightKidz we do try to car share wherever possible. Even without the threat of global warming the green revolution makes sense. It is patently obvious that we live on a planet with dwindling resources. Sooner or later we'd be forced to be a bit more careful with our resources. The global warming debate has really focussed our attention. Even if global warming all turns out to be 'hot air' (pardon the pun) the world will be a better place when we are all green.
