Hmm, the weather has been hot and sunny every day I have written this blog. Maybe I should stop as it’s getting too hot.

Today, need to publicise the green drinks event. It’s still not been added to green drinks international. Hotel du Vin have offered to host the event next tuesday, so I’m just spending the morning phoning contacts & e-mailing a general invitation. Also doing a contact sort and updating my email addresses. Necessary but dull!
Will get on with the costs analysis this afternoon.

To be honest, I’ve been dissapointed over the last couple of days with the low uptake of the KEE project & small no of registrations from KEE people on the blog. I guess it’s been the hottest summer since 76, so anyone in their right minds would be making the most of it rather than doing even more computery stuff online after normal work.

So, everyone has been emailed about green drinks next tuesday. I’ve also been going through the funding links from yesterday. So far – I need to investigate EEA financial mechanism – eeagrants.org .

LIFE+ will be relevant when it happens. Need to remember to go back & check it.

the Environment DG website

General environment funding

Environment in developing countries – Pilot projects in the field including those involving environmentally-sound technologies adapted to local constraints and needs; email: europaid-info@cec.eu.int.

European investment bank loan.

Argh – just found the eu environment funding directory 07 – 13. The one I spent this afternoon looking through was the old one. Hmm.

Now, am I more about reducing water consumption or reducing co2 emmissions?
