ECOCLUB Luminaries™: Dr. Alex Evan-Wong, Co-Founder of Ecolodgy, Malawi After spending 25 years as an NHS Haematologist in Scotland, Dr. Evan-Wong answered an urgent call from the Rotary Doctor Bank during the height of Africa’s AIDS epidemic. Staying on voluntarily as a Scottish Director for the Microloan Foundation, he helped train 17,000 Malawian women to launch micro-enterprises, from food stalls to village solar-lamp kiosks in a country where 87% of the population lacks mains electricity. That grassroots foundation ultimately led him to co-found Ecolodgy near Blantyre: a hybrid eco-hospitality and permaculture training center proving that conservation only works when it puts chemical-free food on the table and cash into village pockets. We spoke with Dr. Evan-Wong about the realities of community tourism, his £750 climate-resilient homestead, and why a humble plastic bucket can make or break a sustainability project. https://ecoclub.com/headlines/interviews/all-interviews/1825-261105-alex-evan-wong

UK interest rates hiked to 4%. Average real wage hardly moved since 2008. Inflation caused by profiteering, not wage rises. Millions to hand wealth to banks, boosting their profits. Rich get richer. Govt could have removed excess cash by taxing the rich. Could have curbed rents, energy costs.
