"The New Zealand government will grant no new offshore oil exploration permits
in a move that is being hailed by conservation and environmental groups as a
historic victory in the battle against climate change."
An excellent start, if it can be maintained against the power of the wealthy
multinationals and their political allies. Let's hope other countries are able
to follow suit as quickly as possible. The alternative to a gradual transition
is a sudden collapse.
