]]> Comment on Plastic Bags by neo http://neolics.com/blog/2008/02/28/plastic-bags/#comment-8 neo Thu, 28 Feb 2008 13:06:28 +0000 http://neolics.com/blog/2008/02/28/plastic-bags/#comment-8 Chris Huhne: <blockquote>Biodegradable plastic bags in themselves can have an adverse environmental impact by creating greenhouse gases within landfill sites</blockquote> The amount of CO2 released by a decomposing plastic bag is not that high. Rotting vegetable matter or decaying refuse is going to produce CO2, methane and other gases anyway. If the source of the starch used to make the biodegradable plastic is fast growing vegetation then the carbon can be offset and the actual overall CO2 footprint would be negligible. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biodegradable_polythene_film People should be focused on the reduction of CO2 gases from larger sources and reducing the amount of energy wasted... Chris Huhne:

]]> Comment on FastForward 1.2.0 by neo http://neolics.com/blog/2008/01/22/fastforward-120/#comment-4 neo Thu, 24 Jan 2008 12:35:49 +0000 http://neolics.com/blog/2008/01/22/fastforward-120/#comment-4 Well, it seems the update was a little premature. It turns out that the new email addresses require the spam/ham emails to be included as attachments (rather than inline). FastForward doesn't send the emails as attachments so it will require some more work... In the mean time, PlusNet have offered to operate the old email addresses with FastForward so I recommend anyone using the tool to continue to use version 1.1.9 or start using version 1.2.1, but not to use version 1.2.0 ;) Well, it seems the update was a little premature.
