About Me

Crap At The Environment is an attempt to start a movement of people who are concerned about climate change and environmental damage, yet, until now, have been completely or fairly shit at doing anything about it. This shitness may have been caused by uncertainty about the issues, apathy, confusion, boredom, or just inclination to focus on more manageable things like the F.A. Cup.The movement is headed by comedian Mark Watson and will result in a 'cult' book early next year. Its aim in the meantime is, through blogs, events, stunts, personal experiments and so forth, to remove the tedium from 'green' issues, replacing it with Fun. Resulting in lots of people who were Crap At The Environment becoming Good at it. And ultimately making a tiny, but noble, difference to things.Read the blog for more details and join up by 'adding' us, as they say.Get a MySpace layout like this one!
