[Closed] are you part of the problem or part of the solution..?

Whats the problem again?

well.. the problem for me was constructing a catchy enough thread title to draw the right crowd into the debate.. the topic was deliberately ambiguous..

I feel that I may have aimed a little low.. although there has already been some interesting discussion and it's still early days..

I detect a current of social and environmental responsibility floating around here and there. Pretty ephemeral at times, but still there. I think there are just enough people with just enough desire to do the right thing to keep it going.

- Environmental legislation gets passed, often without anyone noticing apart from in the industries
- Eco messages are all around us
- Companies are trying to clean up their act - sure, it's for publicity reasons, but the end result is still positive
- People are working on the science and technology

Slow progress, but I think we are going in the right direction.

The big question for me is whether or not we'll get there in time.
