LECTURE 2

Discourse – Sustainable Practice: Stephen Huxley, Denise Meredyth, Judith Glover

———————————————–
———————————————–

———————————————–
‘Al Gore promotes sustainable practice yet lives in luxury’; Bad perhaps, however I perceive this fact as trivial: at least he’s spreading the word. That doesn’t allow for excuses, but under the circumstances, I’ll let Al slide on that one.
———————————————–

———————————————–
The four main causes of death in the developed world are preventable.
———————————————–

———————————————–
Should we buy and hoard, or rent and share? I like the notion of the latter; promoting community, etc. Perhaps not the most sustainable practice in a rural environment however; I think the more remote the area, the less feasible (and thus attractive) a sharing system becomes.
