I caught up with Prof. James Clark, from the Green Chemistry Centre of Excellence (GCCE) in York, when he was in New Delhi earlier this week (December 2-3, 2013). He was here to participate in the International Workshop on Green Initiatives in Energy, Environment and Health (IWGIEEH) jointly organised by the Green Chemistry Network Centre, […]

The gentlemen of London have long had a well-respected signature style. Tailored suits, crisp lines, and classic accessories are staples of their wardrobes. But London is also known for the avant-garde, like the 60s mod and rocker looks of the past, influenced heavily by pop culture. And while you can visit London, like any good […]

The frenzy surrounding Facebook’s IPO shows the firm grip the thriving tech scene has on public consciousness. The IPO disappointed investors and Facebook is a few billion off its May 18 valuation. Let’s not forget however, that this is an eight-year-old company that is closing in on 1 billion users and employs a staff of […]

As my Monster Month of training draws to a close and I enter the final 36 hours before the New York City Marathon on Sunday, I’d like to take this opportunity to praise the efforts of those involved and the causes which are being supported by thousands of competitors. Within the British Consulate in New […]

The last blog I wrote was about the tenth anniversary of 9/11. That seems quite a long time ago. Danny Lopez has written about UN General Assembly week and our many other activities in September. So I wanted to pick up a few themes that don’t get quite as much play in our blogs. Politics. Under the skin […]

With one month to go until the New York City Marathon, I am about to enter what is often called the “Monster Month” – the month that involves the most intense, grueling and critical final weeks of training. It is said that a runner’s efforts during their “Monster Month” can make or break their success […]

September 11th is an immensely emotional date for New York. This year, being the Tenth Anniversary, was especially so. Our priority this year—and every year—was to support the family members of the 67 British victims. My day started in Lower Manhattan, where I joined BBC Radio 5 Live’s Peter Allen as he broadcasted the main […]

In some ways, it feels presumptuous for me to write about the tenth anniversary of 9/11. At the time of the attacks, I wasn’t here yet – my posting in New York didn’t begin until 2008. It seems like so much has been written by people better qualified to reflect on the last ten years. However, […]

New York Consul-General Danny Lopez’s First Month It is hard to describe the excitement I felt when I was first informed that I’d been selected to be the next British Consul-General in New York. I spent two years living in the Big Apple in the early 2000s working for Barclays Bank, and I very much […]
