We all know people like Ben and Izzy

-

A JOY to look forward to every weekday on The Reader page is the London Calling cartoon by Kipper Williams.

I suspect we all know folk such as Ben and Izzy (or, for some, they may even be a bit too close to home for comfort).

For all their environmen­tal angst they call for pizzas in unrecyclab­le containers (no doubt using the latest mobile devices full of conflict minerals) to be delivered by motorbike, and (it seems) they drove to the recycling centre, in the edition you published last Thursday [November 8].

They and their posing chums would probably also argue that it’s OK, yah, to drive to Heathrow for their fabulous flight to Phuket because the plane burns more fuel and creates more pollution than their car. Gordon Thompson
