The BBC has also got behind the value of growing your own produce to combat carbon emmissions .Check out its on-line system called Bloom where you can see the carbon footprint of growing your own produce?http://www.bbc.co.uk/bloom/actions/growyourown.shtml

I am not an experienced gardener - more of an enthusiastic amateur who learns by trial and error and is keen to "manage" the effects of the weather on my garden. Writing this blog is my passion and I hope that it will continue to grow, allowing global gardeners to communicate about the effects of climate change on our plants and the future of our gardens.
