I have worked in the waste industry for almost 20 years after coming from an accountancy and scientific background, and take the view that the UK government has a long way to go before it can claim to be supporting a thriving green economy. I have now moved into politics to promote my views based around what I believe to be sound environmental practice. My book, based on evidence freely availabe and in the public domain, shows how difficult it is to make a scientific point without having the threat of an expensive defamation law suit, and how ill equipped the UK government is to protect genuine green companies who are the foundations for a brighter future.
