How could the chairman of the British Airports Authority possibly manage to get a national newspaper to provide him with a platform to promote the deeply self-serving idea that building a third runway at Heathrow Airport is a move which will assist the fight against global warming? A keen-eyed reader points out that the offending interview, which appeared in the Daily Telegraph, was 'sponsored' by the Carbon Trust, whose slogan is to help business profit from carbon reduction.

Did anyone else see this totally bogus and fatuous story? Reportedly a two
year old who had 'set up his own blog' on cooking.. er? Sorry? Utterly
spurious. The real story was his dad, whose business had failed, trying to
get some publicity for his new venture. An utter sham. Two pages wasted on
this piece - shocking...
