i'll borrow from tim flannery on newsradio this morning - it's very easy to be a condom on the prick of progress.

for those opposed to action it seems to be because of any of a range of these things:
- you don't think climate change is a problem;
- you don't like kevin rudd;
- you don't think the solutions proposed will help and want something different;
- you're concerned bankers and traders will make money off it;
- you think that other nations might not live up to their end of the bargain, or;
- you think it's all too hard?
