Is the pub’s rebirth likely? It does seem a bit of a shame that people can’t get excited about high-qual enviro kit around them. It will have to happen at some point…that people want eco-cred and eco-cool in their ‘hood at least as much as they want ‘family pubs’. Seems very ‘English’ somehow: family pub (anything ‘family’ in fact) more important than eco-stuff.
