Captain TOGA,

a good point, borne out by the behaviour of the HKG stock market - driven by the hope/fears of the investors and traders. With an extremely hyped media, it only takes Stanley Ho to have a bad bowel movement reported in the newspapers to put the market into a flat-spin.

VC/Shep 69,

a 2 sided approach to encouraging concerns/action on the environment, but why does the state have to make the running? Is it because in mass society that individuals are so 'molly-coddled' that they need th state to tell them whats happening right in front of their eyes?

Some reading of Carl Gustav Jungs thoughts on the behaviour of an individual in todays mass society/state control and even under religious dogma might enlighten us to the reasons for individual behaviour today. And may also hold clues to the behaviour of investors and market traders as described by Captain TOGA.

Mass minded behaviour, that is manipulated by state/democratic/religious dogma, has very much eroded individual thinking/behaviour.

(CG Jung - The Undiscovered Self - interesting reading)
