Sustainability Coach Takes Her Expertise to Market
Big business's decision to jump on the green bandwagon has created a host of opportunities for consultants with environmental expertise. Jennifer Woofter recognized the possibilities six years ago, when she was a research analyst for Calvert Group, one of the country's largest families of socially responsible mutual funds. She judged companies on whether they met Calvert's standards for social and environmental performance, looking at their energy and water use, recycling numbers, workplace diversity and human rights records. .
Howard emerges for morning walk
OUTGOING prime minister John Howard went on his daily morning walk in Sydney today after losing government last night. Mr Howard emerged from the prime minister's official Sydney residence, Kirribilli House, at 7am (AEDT) and was followed by a sizeable media pack as he took his usual route along the Sydney Harbour foreshore and through the streets of Kirribilli. People stopped to clap the prime minister as he walked by with one woman remarking, "they don't know what they've done''. Some fishermen on Sydney Harbour heckled Mr Howard with one calling: ``Better luck next time buddy''. Asked how he felt this morning Mr Howard said only "I'm fine thanks'' and declined to answer any other questions from reporters. The Howard government's 11-year rule ended last night with a sweeping victory by Kevin Rudd's Labor Party.
