Summary
A leaked memo - from Esso (ExxonMobil) to the White House - has exposed attempts by the world's biggest oil company to oust a top UN scientist.

The latest of Exxon's dirty tricks, this memo to the Bush administration criticises Dr Robert Watson, Head of the UN International Panel on Climate Change. The scientist has spoken out in the past about the need to tackle global warming, and has criticised the US for failing to meet environmental targets.

The UK is in the middle of a waste crisis. New European legislation has spelt the beginning of the end for the polluting and unpopular practice of land-filling our rubbish. This has created a stampede by local authorities for incinerators, which are also hugely unpopular with the public and produce a range of toxic and cancer-causing chemicals.

However, a totally new way of looking at waste is emerging that removes the need to burn or bury our rubbish; Zero Waste.
