Given the evidence as Prof Karoly did at yesterday's very informative presentation at the initial, ground setting, forum at Euroa, there must come a time for increasing numbers of people to make a range of environmentally sound rational choices at a micro level which will cause macro level changes in the nature and total of consumption and related aggregates.
Given this possibility, the almost frantic at times unethical, efforts of various producers and gatekeepers in (hopefully) the last bastion of the carbon economy to quell or compete with voices for climate change can be better understood and 'reality checked'.
