It's time you did something Mr. Brumby!

Came upon an article "The road to perdition" by John Whitelegg who is a professor with the Stockholm Environment Institute on improving our public transport system in the face of climate change.

I have to confess that i'm not very knowledgeable about the green house effect, global warming etc, but i agree with his views entirely. Everyone who knows me has heard me rant about the failings of our public transport system. Issues with it's cost effectiveness now coupled with the increasing need to reduce carbon emissions makes it all the more important.

Many people have long held and voiced similar opinions, the only question left is, why has our government not done anything about it?

Are they waiting for a sign from God? Cause we all know that the apocalypse will arrive before that.
