On Sunday I went to a Battle of Ideas debate/seminar titled "What is 'new environmentalism'?" produced by Ben Pile who was also on the panel. This included Mark Lynas, Joe Smith and Casper Hewett with Timandra Harkness as the very able and amusing chair.

I am not sure anyone answered the question but it was a fascinating hour or so of discussion. As someone pointed out, there were no 'Greens' on the panel which probably led to a more balanced and sensible dialogue rather than a collection of political clichés and point scoring. Let's hope this kind of conversation continues.

Many apologies for the lack of cartoons in the last couple of weeks, I have had plenty of ideas but zero time to draw them out. Happily I am sketching one out now and it will be posted later today.
