Currently I'm employed by the Waste Services department of a Scottish Local Authority doing communications and development work focusing on waste reduction, recycling, composting programme for households. We've recently introduced a weekly household food waste collection, which has required a lot of effort and attention.

Previously, in Scotland, I've set up, publicised and run a home composting campaign for a Landfill Tax Trust; Co-ordinated development of a regional Local Agenda 21 Plan for Roundtable of local organisations involved with sustainable development; and was International Editor for BioCycle, Journal of Composting and Recycling.

Before relocating to Scotland, I wrote, edited and managed production for several publications relating to composting, recycling, sustainable development, environmental business and organic gardening. Also have some hands on experience with community economic development and community involvement in policy decisions and implementation.

This is also my first post here and I'm not sure what it will look like.
