If we want the evocative, populist (but non-scientific) we could go for: Gemini Project Libra Project Aquarius Project or a bit more thoughtful: 40/20 Vision A play on 20/20 vision (perfect sight) but standing for 40 percent reduction by 2020. or: Project Remission Overtones of forgiveness and diminution or: CAP - Cutting Air Pollution RAP - Reducing Air Pollution There are probably dozens of acronyms we could use with a bit of thought (but should avoid Community Reduction of Air Pollution;-) We probably still need some other brains on it. May I share the notion with my team for their views? Alan They are all air signs of the Zodiac. Libra is probably best bet because it has the sign of the scales - judicious balance of man's needs and the environment etc. At 1:27 pm +0100 28/4/01, trevor davies wrote: > Alan, To catch the local imagination - how about "Small c" or >"Little c"?
