Chris Ingham Brooke
Founder/Chief Graffiti Artist
Chris (50% English, 50% Italian) previously worked in a law firm - a job he kicked in to concentrate on his passion, the environment. Environmental Graffiti is his first big project, which he affectionately refers to as his “baby.” Well actually… it’s more of a monster really - since the blog was launched in May this year, 400,000 people a month come to dip into the weird and wonderful articles that are posted on the site.
Chris speaks English, Italian, Russian and Spanish and lives in London. He enjoys cooking and playing the guitar.

Brian Gordon
Writer and Politician
Brian says: I was a climate change sceptic - but an honest one, so I investigated the facts and opinions on either side of this whole ‘global warming’ thing. I discovered that on one side are facts, and on the other, opinions. I decided to go with the facts. I’ve been trained by Al Gore to present the Inconvenient Truth. I am a Canadian Green Party candidate, Esquimalt-Juan de Fuca riding.

I love to cycle and am crazy about junk food, Indian films and the libraries of Oxford. Some of the crazy things I want to do include cycling from Oxford to Bangalore in India and not shaving for a year.
