Who Killed the Electric Car?
Who Killed the Electric Car? It was among the fastest, most efficient production cars ever built. It ran on electricity, produced no emissions and catapulted American technology to the forefront of the automotive industry. The lucky few who drove it never wanted to give it up. So why did General Motors crush its fleet of EV-1 electric vehicles in the Arizona desert?

Saturday June 6th, 12-6
A free, fun packed, family event is being held in London Fields on Saturday 6 June as part of national Recycle Now Week and the Love London Festival.
The BeReCreative event is a joint effort between Hackney Council’s Recycling Team and Green Champion network. Building on the success of last year’s event, this year BeReCreative promises to be bigger and better than ever.
Kids can get busy making musical instruments from recycled materials, creating their own toys at the ‘junk journeys’ stall, and getting involved with various ‘green games’. A ‘give or take’ area will let residents bring unwanted items and swap them for others. Create your own organic drink with the smoothie bike. The Bike Doctor will be on hand to offer advice to cyclists on maintaining their bicycles.
BeReCreative will be held on Saturday 6 June from 12noon-6pm in London Fields, E8. For more information, call the recycling hotline on: 020 8356 6688 or visit:

Would you like to help with the World Naked Bike Ride?
(An annual protest against oil dependency)
http://www.worldnakedbikeride.org/
Being a steward means you turn up at 1pm for a briefing…
Then do small jobs like tell the riders to not stand on the paths, tell them to line up at the appropriate time and be a point of contact if people have questions…
You DON’T have to be naked!!! And you get a free flag for the back of your bike.
If you would like to be a steward pls contact the WNBR london website.
About the naked bike ride:
An annual protest against oil dependency and to demonstrate how vulnerable cyclists are in London.
It starts in Hyde park 3pm Sat 13th June…
Then we cycle around central London in varying levels of nudity.
The police stop all the traffic for us – and won’t arrest you for being naked!
The last two years there were over 1000 riders… and it is a surreal and hysterical day.
It is Bare as you Dare… so you don’t have to be naked… you can wear as many or little clothes as you wish.
Please come – and I promise it will be a day you’ll never forget!
