Airplot is the piece of land in the middle of the proposed
third runway site at Heathrow airport, owned by
Greenpeace, Emma Thompson, Alistair McGowan, Zac Goldsmith and tens of thousands of people from around
the world. The Airplot is a fundamental part of the
campaign by Greenpeace and other groups to block
construction of a new runway. A new runway would
destroy communities, increase noise and air pollution, and
contribute significantly to climate-changing greenhouse
gas emissions.

The winning entry: My Paper Boat by Arun Bose
Remember '1 minute to save the world' - the international competition to make your own one minute film about the effects of climate change? The idea behind the project was to provide a platform to allow people to share their visions of how climate change impacts their lives - and how it will impact the future of life on this planet.

Lights, camera, action! Fancy making a film?
Got a story to tell about climate change? About what's happening your area, perhaps - how you're neigbourhood is being impacted and how you're adapting, or what you think needs to be done? Can you tell that story in one minute?
1 Minute to Save the World is an international short film competition, and it's open to anyone who has something to say about climate change.
So send in your points of view, ideas or solutions. Films can be made in any format – video, animation or even on a mobile phone. Amateurs, professionals and under 18s from all over the world are encouraged to send in entries, and your films will be shown on the 1 Minute To Save The World website and also on Guardian Unlimited. Greenpeace, UNICEF, World Development Movement , New Economics Foundation and Stop Climate Chaos are all supporting the project.

I still have to get hold of some wellies (my
trusty pair is elsewhere right now) and a tent, but things are starting to fall
into place for Glastonbury.
The team working hard to bring the Greenpeace field to life are not far from my
desk and I haven't heard any raised voices yet which has to be a good sign. But
for those out there with tickets (if you don't have them yet, you can still win
a pair with our Greener Glastonbury Giveaway on Facebook), exactly what is
being cooked up?

Want a cheap (ie free) way of getting into Glastonbury, but our skateboarding competition isn't your bag? Your luck may very well be in and all you have to do is send a message to your friends on Facebook - what could be easier?
This competition is for fun and to raise awareness about sustainably harvested timber but there are still a few rules, sorry:
1. Competition starts now. Competition closes on 9 June 2008 at midnight GMT so all links must be in the comments below by then.
2. There are three pairs of tickets for one skater and a friend (that will have to be an adult guardian if the skater is under 16). These tickets are non-transferrable - you need to use them yourself and you can't sell them. You'll need to provide the name of your guest when we contact you.

A big thanks once again to all of you who took part in our Glastonbury competition. Here are some of the best entries in the video section - it's a shame there could only be one winner in each category.
My birthday in the park (living with climate change...)
