We live in a society that has become dependant on oil. The escalating demand for this finite resource means we must change our lifestyles to adapt to reduced consumption and increasing cost. Now our excessive use of fossil fuels has triggered Climate Change and the growing risks of drought and flooding that is progressively reducing the capacity of natural systems to sustain a growing world population. These Global issues that are already having and impact on the worlds' wildlife and vulnerable communities across the world will in due course risk the well-being of our own community and our children's futures. We have a responsibility to act, but what can, or should we do, as individuals and collectively, to respond to this emerging challenge?
