a difficulty I find all too often is not understanding of the problem, or
even awareness. it's acceptance and and the application of the awarness to
indiviudals' choices. for instance, raise the issue of global warming with
most people, they have a more than adequate understanding of where we are
at, the seriousness of the situation and the role that they play in it. but
should someone interject with a story about a holiday and the conversation
could quickly change to cheap flights without any connection being made.
people know my views on flying, know me well, but will still pass on 'great
offers' for holidays, flights etc.
how do we get past this stage?
