Sustainable war

It's nice to know that even the Ministry of Defence is going green, in the battle against climate change.

Derek Twigg of the MoD told Fraser Kemp on Monday, in Parliamentary Questions, all about the measures they are taking... "improving building energy management and energy efficiency... working with the Carbon Trust ... embedding pro-rata energy efficiency targets into service delivery agreements ... trying to procure energy-efficient vehicles and offset emissions from ministerial flights."

And they will "develop and implement a carbon neutrality strategy for the MOD office estate..." etc. etc.

One day, perhaps, all wars will be carbon neutralised and solar-powered. Just like the old days.

So that's alright then.
