Actually i'd been googling to try and locate the precise quote I thought I'd heard on the radio or TV, (or was I dreaming). The phrase i imagined I heard was to the effect was that ''we need nothing less than the equivalent of an all out ''war effort'' - ie total commitment on the scale that was needed to be prepared to make sacrifices on the scale needed to face up to germany in 1939 -truly a war effort''. I must have dreamed. Were we to hear from the guvmint at last recognition of the overwhelming magnitude of global warming and the absolute necessity, and as soon as possible, to implement draconian measures such as Carbon Rationing? I must have dreamt. Here we are after a couple of days of media blitz on the topic of GW and Miliband'e rhetoric is merely the usual tepid and banal. Apparently they'll politely request folks if they might just moderate their behaviour just a little bit, ....it wont affect your lifestyle...blah blah . thanks for this discovery of your blog. now i want to check out Monbiots piece on ''Low wattage thinking'' as i'd found recently some barely believable material about a ''centre for suburban studies'' where they claim something they call ''micro generation'' (?) makes suburbia loveable and sustainable. Are they pulling our legs. Nice work if they can get it !.... Help me out with this I happily stumbed on your blog the day the Stern report is published. Actually i’d been googling to try and locate the precise quote I thought I’d heard on the radio or TV, (or was I dreaming). The phrase i imagined I heard was to the effect was that ”we need nothing less than the equivalent of an all out ”war effort” – ie total commitment on the scale that was needed to be prepared to make sacrifices on the scale needed to face up to germany in 1939 -truly a war effort”.
