Press releases on this page:Rainforest ChristmasEnvironment Innovation Awards in Monaco Rainforest ChristmasPress Release dated: Thursday, December 16, 2004The World Land Trust is top of the list again with Britain's newspapers. Last year it was the Independent that recommended buying an acre of Rainforest, and this year both the Guardian and the Daily Telegraph have suggested World Land Trust acres. "It's great news for our fund raising, even if it does mean staff working flat out from now until Christmas", said John Burton, CEO of the Trust. However he continued, "We can only really guarantee delivery of the certificates and donor packs for acres ordered over the website by the 16th December, and by phone by the 17th. After that, it's probably a matter of luck, depending on the Royal Mail." Environment Innovation Awards in MonacoPress Release dated: Wednesday, December 15, 2004World Land Trust CEO John Burton was invited as a special guest at the award ceremony of the European Grand Prix for Innovation, which this year was dedicated to the Environment.
