I live within walking distance of the Bella Center. I escaped on a vacation in Spain, as I would probably not have made it to work anyway. And I feel much more at home alone in my garden, than in a huge crowd of exited people :-)<br /><br />I was disappointed by the results in Copenhagen, but surprised, that the every country seem to accept the climate threat, though not yet willing to act on it. No denial anymore!<br /><br />It seem to me, that the chinese first of all prevented a better result - and climate are likely to punish them severe! I feel pity for them, as their rivers are drying out in a foreseeable future. And no one to blame.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33456225.post-40351599614180745022009-12-24T04:10:19.024+10:302009-12-24T04:10:19.024+10:30That's odd!

Or so this blog said last year...<br />Many of our own seed savers group are gardeners outside their diverse professional careers; having such a career by this evidence does not mean that someone is disconnected from nature, or uncaring of the global climate change dangers.Andrewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02477110710368593727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33456225.post-29617106813983903422009-12-21T10:53:05.918+10:302009-12-21T10:53:05.918+10:30I often observe people with briefcases busily disc...I often observe people with briefcases busily discussing topics between themselves, passing through Adelaide's parks and gardens while ignoring the birds and the flowers and the beautiful sky.<br /><br />Perhaps if we all make time to reflect and observe, and enjoy just being alive, we will make sustainable "progress" as a species, and better decisions. <br /><br />I'm at least glad that politicians are willing to talk about important issues now. Twenty years ago environmental problems were treated as marginal, as were the people who had such concerns.<br /><br />Very best wishes from me and my long-established organic garden.The Moderatorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10914532371793643052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33456225.post-17746389893673654222009-12-18T22:08:03.216+10:302009-12-18T22:08:03.216+10:30Oh thank you Gavin.
