Alexis Rowell – 'Communities, Council and Carbon -what we can do if Governments won't'
Alexis Rowell had a tough time in local government. He spent four years of his life as an elected representative of the Liberal Democrats attempting to get Camden Council to make sustainability a way of life, and not just a tick box exercise.
I listen to him liken writing his new book to Joe Simpson's experience as described in 'Touching the Void'. I wonder if he felt like Joe, hanging suspended by a climbing rope after a fall from a remote mountain, or like his climbing partner Simon, who had to cut the rope to save at least one of their lives.
