When it comes to flying, things really have to change. Flights produce greenhouse gases, mostly carbon dioxide (CO2), by burning fuel, which contributes to global warming. Aviation is responsible for about 2 per cent of the world s global carbon emissions, according to the International Air Transport Association.
In fact, the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), the UN s civil aviation body, calculated that an economy-class return flight from London to New York emits an estimated 0.67 tonnes of CO2 per passenger. That s equivalent to 11 per cent of the average annual emissions for someone in the UK or about the same as those generated by someone living in Ghana for over a year.
James Smithson, after whom the Smithsonian Institution is named, was a rock hound.
This 1820 manuscript, in his hand, is an inventory describing the collection he kept in a mahogany cabinet. At the top, Smithson has written, Catalogue of my Cabinet: 1820 before commencing to list his rocks and minerals pyrites, green micaceous stone from Switzerland, bog iron ore, etc.
The incredible document, almost certainly the only one in private hands says bookseller Nathan Raab of the Raab Collection, was recently deaccessioned from a New Jersey institution and is now for sale for $75,000. Prior to its NJ residency, the manuscript had been owned by William Jones Rhees, the Smithsonian s chief clerk from 1852 until the early 1890s.

Very few houseplant buyers, who are mostly aged in their 20s and 30s, seem to be as aware of peat as a finite resource as they are of fossil fuels. But when showing off their green lifestyle on Instagram (to date there are 11.5 million house/indoor plants hashtag posts), few houseplant-aholics realise there is an elephant in the room: the vast majority of houseplants are grown in peat, a nutritious soil-like substance formed from decayed organic matter over time. The mining of peat is now widely condemned as unsustainable, environment-wrecking and carbon-emitting. Like coal or oil, it is effectively a finite resource. It does regenerate, but only forms at a rate of 1mm annually.
