THE FUTURE: HURRY UP AND WAIT


Meeting Al Gore's goal of a 90% reduction in carbon emissions will require an unprecedented reorganization of the western world. Unfortunately, team Gore can't even organize a rock concert:
IT WAS billed as the concert series to save the planet, but organisers of the Sydney leg of Live Earth went to ground yesterday over complaints the event was a planning disaster.

Rina Ferris, a spokeswoman for the event's promoters, Michael Chugg and Mark Pope, would not comment on reports from concert-goers in yesterday's Herald that they had to queue for up to an hour to use the toilets and to buy alcohol, prompting some to pay up to $50 to enterprising beer scalpers.
It's the thought that counts.
