What generally happens in this county is that our politicians don't serve us well because they don't tell the truth, and they don't keep their promises.

Recently though, our State Governments have discussed instigating a carbon trading scheme - the details are still to be decided - and that's an encouraging sign.

There are a range of associated impacts related to increasing temperatures which affect both evaporation rates and river systems, which are already over stressed, and these will hit farming communities and the health of crop lands.

It is now well understood that humans ultimately depend on the health of the planet for their wellbeing.

In our early period we pretty much survived or perished on our capacity to reach people, and on getting into the pattern of having no money and playing lots of shows.

You don't want to spend your life explaining yourself.

I guess for me what is more significant than success is the nature of each of the songs and of the words.
