Reducing emissions by 10% in 2010? 10:10

Here’s a campaign that should be of interest to all friends of HomeCamp – it’s a site and movement devoted to encouraging us as individuals (as well as organisations, educational institutions, and businesses) to cut emissions by 10% during 2010. It’s called, fittingly, 10:10. It’s an organisation concentrating on change in the UK, but they have information for those outside the UK who are interested in following the same idea. Still not sure what this is all about? from the website:
What is 10:10?
10:10 is an ambitious project to unite every sector of British society behind one simple idea: that by working together we can achieve a 10% cut in the UK’s carbon emissions in 2010.
The sign-up process is simple, there’s a nice checklist of things you can do to reduce your footprint/emissions (including, of course, the energy-saving projects we at HomeCamp have been talking about for some time), and it’s easy to encourage your local MP to take part too.

What if someone has already cut them by more than 10% in the past couple of years?
This is the same problem the CRC has. Bad guys can easily look really good, but those who are already good are going to struggle to get better…
