Why Eco Warehouse?

The scientific consensus is that most of the warming observed in the last fifty years is attributable to human activity, through emissions of greenhouse gases such as Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and methane into the atmosphere. We need to make a profound change in our use of energy and other activities that release these gases. And we need to prepare for the changes that are now already unavoidable. (UK Sustainable Development Strategy 2005)
