Pat's Environment Day Diary (Part 3)

Today I didn't do many environmentally friendly things apart from remembering to switch off any unneccessary lights,the standby lights on my computer,and use the air conditioning less often.
This morning(Saturday) I took some jam jars to the recycling bins at Siam shooping centre but the two bins(extremely small ones!) that are there are only for paper or plastic/cans.In fact Bangkok doesn't seem to have big recycling containers like in Europe.

Here is some good news: Discovering a 'lost forest'
Mount Mabu, in northern Mozambique, is a vast forest untouched by the modern world.

Scientists from London's Royal Botanic Gardens came across it after looking at satellite images on Google Earth.

Intrigued, they set off on what they believe is the first expedition. Once there, they discovered what are thought to be some new species.

The expedition leader was Jonathan Timberlake.
