27-02-2006 17:02

A recent idea I've had on moving towards ecological sustainability, through what is effectively a (more-)politically radical means; and is one I'm to carry out soon. It is written in an article-type-style - intended for a few eco-publications. I hope it is of interest & inspiration.
