There is more than enough doubt on the subject of global climate stability to caution against continuing to choose to follow a pattern of behaviour that could have such profoundly negative consequences.
I should add that naturally those making the most effort to discourage us from changing our pattern of behaviour appear to be those (or appear to be funded by those) individuals and organisations which have a significant investment in our continuing on our current path.

I'm sure I'm not the only person who today received an email petition containing several attached images, forwarded by a myriad of levels of people spamming (sorry, utilising) their complete addressbooks.
Most of these earnest guardians of public decency said "apparently these images are very graphic, so terrible that I haven't dared look at them myself" or words to that effect.
Well I haven't looked at them either, but I want to ask whether people who were truly concerned about public standards should be freely circulating such material sight unseen.
Would they give their children books without looking between the covers?
Feed them potentially toxic sweets without checking them out first?Yes I'm against child abuse. This email qualifies as potential child abuse too.

Have Aucklanders given up on "the vision thing"?

Obviously it's possible to register successfully at concertvaults, but apparently not for me. It's been timing out forever. "Disappointed!"
