High card, low carbon

Top Trumps, the cult card game for kids, has had a makeover from the environmental charity Marches Energy Agency. Players using the new green version can forget such macho notions as ranking cars by engine size, number of cylinders or speed – now it’s fuel economy, range, and low carbon emissions which drive a winning hand. A deck has been sent to every school in England and a limited number have been put up for auction on eBay, with footballer David James funding part of the initiative.
