Everybody's favourite TV geek crush, David Tennant of Dr Who fame, has joined up with Oxfam to offer an online climate challenge, writes ShinyShiny's Anna Leach. You must guide David to answer questions about climate change, and pick the correct option out of three or four answers.
Watch David Tennant screw his face up as he tries to figure out how many wind turbines China builds every day. You make the celeb answer by clicking one of the three or four answers, you get a mark for what time you chose it in, and then the celebrity says your answer. Other stars involved include: Ashley Lensen, Mackenzie Crook and Miranda Richardson.
Games include: Boiling Point; Trains, Planes and Bananas; and Pollution Solution.
There's a button to sign an Oxfam petition on climate change and an option to share the game on your Facebook account. Oxfam have also hooked the climate challenge up with Nokia phones, so it's available as an Ovi app.
It's a moreish way of getting people to swallow some hard facts on Climate Change.
One week in, and new year's resolutions that seemed like a good idea at the time are beginning to take their toll. Why not forget trying to detox (it's terribly unfashionable anyway) and worrying about your nailbiting habit and think about making some longer-term goals that will help the planet instead?
I've been compiling a list of the best lifestyle changes you can make to green up your life, none of which are a major hassle for you, but all of which will make a really positive impact if we all try and bear them in mind.

Fearing I was on to a loser, I didn't mention this particular challenge before I did it, but having decided to try and stick to green and ethical gifts this Christmas by taking the Handmade Pledge. I'm reporting back on my undercover operation now to say that it's all going surprisingly well. I'd already made the painful decision not to send Christmas cards this year (I'm a sucker for a well-designed card, but the online versions I found this year made it worth forgoing them) and having visited a street market this weekend, may have just cracked it. It started with a jar of chutney...
As editor of Shiny Shiny, Susi's carbon footprint is legendary. But word has it she has a greener side that is getting stronger every day. Watch the video to find out what a gadget-loving girl's gotta do to go green.
Here I am again, prying into my colleagues' lives to find out who is the greenest of them all. When I asked beauty editor Zara to take part, she warned me that she most certainly would not be claiming that title any time soon. But is her lifestyle as bad as she thinks?

It's taken us a while to get to this point, and we lost a couple of testers along the way. But finally, I can reveal just how much electricity Katie and I used at our respective homes over the past couple of weeks, how much we differed, and how we compare to the UK average...
But how much did we use? Read on over the jump
You may dimly recall that I recently conducted a trial with members of the office to see how much energy our respective abodes were consuming. Out of the three people taking part, only Katie and myself were successful in getting our gadgets up and running at all, but as per Duncan's tale of woe, this has more to do with our domestic setups than the gadgets themselves, all of which had much to recommend them.
I've already waxed lyrical about the Wattson, but Katie also has quite a lot to say about the Efergy monitor (£39.95) she was using.
Follow the jump to find out how she got on with it...
