		<title>Saving Gorillas with your old mobile phone</title>
		<link>http://www.PureGreen.com.au/NewsDetail.aspx?id=535</link>
		<description>
		 <![CDATA[Every time your mobile phone rings, a tiny piece of metallic ore is making the call possible. It’s called Coltan and its illegal mining in West Africa is threatening the very survival of the mountain gorilla through loss of habitat and violent unrest. With more and more new mobile phones being produced every year, the increasing demand for Coltan is destroying the gorilla’s habitat.<br>
<br>
The good news is that you can easily do something about it. By recycling your mobile phone you can decrease the demand for Coltan, which will reduce the stress on the gorilla’s habitat. <br>]]>

		 <![CDATA[12 Mar 2008<br>
<br>
Governments must urgently boost investment in new nature reserves and protected areas if it is rescue Australia's unique wildlife from a 'decade of neglect', a new report by WWF-Australia says.<br>
<br>
Using the latest government data, WWF reveals that although Australia is the most 'megadiverse' country in the world for vertebrates, only 10.5 per cent of Australia's land area is safeguarded in protected areas, less than that of other, poorer megadiverse countries such as Colombia, China, Peru, Malaysia and Venezuela.<br>]]>

		<title>Oil Price Hits All-Time Record</title>
		<link>http://www.PureGreen.com.au/NewsDetail.aspx?id=507</link>
		<description>
		 <![CDATA[It finally happened this week. The price of oil passed the all-time inflation-adjusted peak of $103.76 that was set in April 1980—and is now three times what it was just four years ago. <br>
<br>
What’s going on? This is a record that virtually none of the world’s oil experts predicted, particularly at a time when the world economy is slumping and the demand for gasoline is now dropping in the United States. Some of the blame may go to speculation and the decline of the dollar. But the roots of the problem run deeper.<br>]]>
