Where have all the courgettes gone?
Where have all the courgettes gone? That may be what you're asking yourself when you go for weekly grocery shop. It seems like cold and wet weather in Southern Europe has effected the Winter crop, and pushed wholesale prices up so high, that supermarkets are unwilling to stock them. Share Radio's James Brydges spoke to Professor Peter Midmore, Agricultural Economist at Aberystwyth University.

The Share Radio Travel Guide: What are eco-friendly holidays? Are they just a gimmick?
The Share Radio Travel Guide, with travel journalist and author Sarah Tucker. This week, we delve into the world's most extreme adventures and there's an insider's guide to Melbourne with Patricia Scales, a guide from Tours By Locals. Those concerned about the environment don't have to be an eco-warrior or a world leader to join the fight to preserve the environment. Simply giving time and/or money and making small, simple lifestyle changes can help protect the planet. One woman who's travelled far and wide and understands the importance of genuinely giving back is Fiona Jeffery, the CEO of Just a Drop - a global, charitable organization helping to provide clean water and sanitation in the poor countries of Asia, Africa and Latin America - and previous head of the World Travel Market.
