[edit] Earth Centre Page now live

I have been working on the Earth Centre page, it is now live and is ready to receive more work. I plan to upload some photos which I shall place in wiki commons so they will be placed in the public domain. I hope that others contribute to this page.

It was very exciting working at Earth Centre from 2001 until 2004 and it is a disgrace that it had to shut. It is reported today in the papers that it is now 'cool' and 'trendy' to be sustainable. It is a shame that earth Centre was not sustainable. There was a lot of excellent education work involved there and some exciting new education packages had just been developed.Rich@rd 22:02, 16 September 2005 (UTC)Rich@rd

[edit] Earth Centre and Sustainability

Earth Centre had some good ideas but it is a shame the reality did not live up to expectations. Some truly horrendous happenings on site including breaching of Health and Safety and some really un-sustainable construction processes. This is a common fault though when contractors are brought (in this case Bovis) who consider it 'just another construction project'
