Today Andy Danson, manager of Borders Cambridge store gave us this statement:

"We at Borders are proud to participate in the Close The Door campaign. This is a simple and effective first step in helping us to cut our energy waste. We have three entrances / exits in our store and working with the campaign has helped us lower our fuel bills and increase customer comfort. It's that easy..! Every retailer should join. Everybody will benefit."

What more do you need to hear?

The guys at Cambridge Borders have been supporting this campaign for over a year - they know the closed door policy works well for their business, and they really do walk the walk. Today they are way ahead of the other large bookstores in Cambridge in our ratings so, please support Borders and show them your appreciation.

Having had a brief Easter break after a frantic month, the campaign team is back. There seems to have been a massive increase in campaign momentum recently - so many people have been emailing recently and we're doing our best to catch up.

The Guardian's Dominic Murphy has written an in-depth piece featuring the Close the Door campaign - a double spread in the G2 section. Read it here:
