     I wonder if Afghanistan and Iraq consider themselves lucky countries too? As for climate change? It seems to me that Oz has been suffering quite a bit due to climate change with endless droughts and snow in Summer. Perhaps Oz should rethink it's butt-kissing attitude towards the US and think for itself for a change?

    by gingembre  9-19-2008   
     "Would you take a fish and put him in the forest?" It sounds ridiculous. Who would do that? But as we grow ever more convinced of the changes that are taking place in PNG's coastal communities, our question is going to have to be, "how will we take a fish and help him thrive in the forest?"
