We all realise that climate change is a real problem and needs to be addressed immediately, but what is the next step to take once you have realised that considerate living is your responsibility?

LONDON AWARE '08 is a groundbreaking environmental expo that is taking place at the city's prestigious Barbican Centre on the 10 and 11 May 2008. The first of its kind in central London, the event will bring together the business community and the general public to educate them on environmental issues and inspire them to make a positive change.

LONDON AWARE '08 (please see www.ukaware.com) will involve hundreds of companies from across the UK showcasing products, services and advice to help you reduce your environmental impact.

The event will cover every area of sustainable living both at work and at home from advice on ethical investment, to the latest hybrid vehicles and renewable energy systems on the market.

Open from 10am to 6pm, with 10,000 paying visitors, the estimated ratio is 75% public 25% business. It will be a 'one stop shop' for people who want to live and work in a more sustainable way.

Attractions will include: over 100 exhibitors, an exhibitors, speakers and sponsors networking evening, 32 expert speakers, a national student Eco-Innovation Award for design - presented by Trevor Baylis OBE, book signings from appropriate authors.

Danny Carnegie, the man behind LONDON AWARE '08, believes the event will leave a lasting impression on the UK.

He said: 'London Aware is designed with the masses in mind. We are not scientists, activists or radicals, just normal people wanting to help everyone make a real and necessary difference.'

Climate change has rarely been out of the headlines in recent months; however, many people don't know or don't understand where they can make changes to reduce their environmental impact.

'For many, LONDON AWARE '08 will be a starting point offering them the inspiration and information that they need to live more considerately, without sacrificing lifestyle or comfort.

'We have already had an excellent response from exhibitors and now, we are encouraging businesses to provide sponsorship and support for the event to help put LONDON AWARE '08 firmly on the map'.

Sponsoring LONDON AWARE '08 will create an invaluable, public association with the most dynamic Greener Living Expo this country has ever seen.

Our marketing will reach tens of thousands of affluent, conventional consumers with a desire to live and work in a more considerate way.

The success of LONDON AWARE '08 and future UK AWARE expos will depend upon respected companies offering their support in the way of sponsorship..

LONDON AWARE '08 is the first in a series of national events that are being run by UK AWARE, a social enterprise that is working to help market environmental alternatives to a wider audience.
