My claims are not based on my opinion. I attend talks on the various subject of climate change, I learn through listening to scientific podcasts and, mostly, I read.
This article was inspired through discussions with people/friends and family and recognising the misconception about what to do in order to make a real difference. This is not a scientific evidence list but rather a practical guide to follow.

Note: I am not a professional writer but I am inspired every now and again to write down my thoughts. This was a spontaneous idea and as I had an opportunity to share it on this platform, here it is. BTW English is my second language so if you spot an odd way of writing just think that I am not perfect. I hope you enjoy reading it. Let me know your thoughts, please. :)

Donnafugata have always exuded a lot of style. A few years ago in London, the winery's owner, José Rallo was giving us a tasting lunch in a smart restaurant in Clerkenwell. The wines were ripe, smooth and well designed. Whilst we tasted, Jose stood up and sang to us acapella. Having already recorded jazz albums in at the Blue Note in New York, this made for a memorable tasting experience.
