Hi Tink,

Back in the '80s I met the ecologist Prof. Eugene Odum at "Wildscreen" in Bristol. He told me of an interview he gave for an American PBS TV station where the interviewer asked him what was the worst case scenario when it came to the environment. He replied "He who could do little did nothing." That says it all I think. Every little thing we can do does help, even though we may not see the benefits.
