Raven's Ait is a manmade island on the Thames in west London, dominated by a large old conference centre whose owners walked out last year. Now it flies the rainbow flag and is occupied by a group of ­people who are digging the garden, mending the roof and trying to turn it into London's first eco-centre. So if you want to hold your own Earth summit or climate change conference, head to Portsmouth Road, ­Surbiton, and start swimming.
