Environmental issues

I've been reading Michel Odent's new book, The Farmer and the Obstetrician, and it offers an interesting examination of how the medicalised approach to birth is having the same effect on people as industrialised farming is having on the environment. The environmental debate is again in the news here and the current Australian Government's unwillingness to sign the Kyoto Agreement on reducing greenhouse gas emissions seem to mimic the Government's unwillingness to tackle the pollution of birth by medical maniacs. How do we get them to see reason?

I intend to contemplate all this from the peace and tranquility of Norfolk Island for a few days, where I am sure I will have the chance to see nature at its best while I take a much needed break.

Next week it will be head long into the National Maternity Action Plan launch preparations and more workshops. But, feet up time first!
