I mentioned in an earlier post that Green issues seem to be gathering momentum. Yesterday's Question Time in Canberra was filled with heated questions on global warming, no doubt partially triggered by the UK's Stern Report. Dad sent me a link to the BBC Stern Report Q&A page.
I think I made a little bit of a difference last week.
Sunrise (TV breakfast show) the week before last featured David Suzuki discussing awareness in Australia. Great that they were talking about the issue but they didn't mention what people could do!! I jumped online and sent them a long detailed email, something to the effect of: "Please tell people they can switch to green power, buy carbon credits, go carbon neutral etc. And why doesn't Sunrise walk the talk and go carbon neutral (win the hearts of viewers and invite other co's to follow their lead)??"
Guess what happened last week? Sunrise addressed every item from my email, in order, on prime time TV!! And they're investigating going carbon neutral. I still haven't had a reply to my email (perhaps the production team received hundreds saying the same thing) but I felt I'd made a difference in the world last week :)
