The Chambers Dictionary have added five new green terms to their version of the dictionary. You probably use them every day, if not, start splurting the latest ecobabbel;
Electrosmog Electromagnetic fields emitted by computers and mobile phones
Eco-village Small ecologically-sustainable communities
Carbon Footprint Measure of the impact human activities on the environment
Green Tax Tax on environmentally unfriendly or unstainable activities
Food Miles Distance travelled in the distribution of food
The new terms are in the 11th edition, so you can't find them using their online version just yet, hence the definitions above are the provisional industry definitions. Their inclusion does show the interest and concerns in environmental issues across the world.
