Flannery has reason to panic

Departments - Just another moving feast!
When the good Gustaf is adamant , as he was on the afternoon program on 774 , that DPI and DSE really want to know where they should be going in the next 50 years, you have to wonder whether they know where they are going now.
When our Prime Minister can bank on targets moving before the election, you know there is a big squal coming. Are the environmental crises not anticipated by anyone in the departments - those who you might think were trained to anticipate.
No, our media and political advocates of change are out there on very high seas of environmentally driven change - all alone.
The department leaders are NOW just pawns of politics and good Gustav ought to know better than defend their ongoing wanderings in the dark.

Water on tap ; If there is a problem, I can't see it?

Feine and 774 would be a lot more effective on the big picture beyond the tap if they would listen to the small voices lost in the cacophony of technofix that callers come up with to solve our rural and envirenmental problems . Unaware to Jon , peter is obvioulsy a high priest of technofix .
Pipes here , money there , the sms messages were supporting Costellos inappropriate brand of industrial monoculture and "can do all with money and technology" .Sorry wrong - can't make rain !
Its the Sort of one sided blinkeredness liberals continue to impose on the bush ; single minded cost ineffective inappropraite solutions to diverse economic and ecological paradigms; even includes cultivation of the dangerous MIS schemes. jons welcome forays on that front will not kill this constraining conformism on market unless he and costello wake up to the powerful popular beasts that continues to feed them.
