The truth is I can See Graham's point but I can also see Pierre's point as well.
Yes we need to be less heavy polluters but which of the many 'theories' are we to go with.
We can't manage/afford all of them unless we drastically ALL change our lifestyles and jobs.Everything is so interdependant that I suspect that even if we could give up and change everything we can we won't be able to operate at any technological level.
The choices may well come down to we just need less people or we live like stone age man.
