I agree with every point here Paul, but I think they have achieved some kind of goal – “The big idea” was to raise awareness, I think by doing this they certainly did that.
But, as you said it may just fall on deaf ears.
I couldn’t be bothered to watch, after sitting through the whole Diana Concert a week before.
After this event has it raised awareness? Yes I think so. Have people been inspired to change their ways? No, probably not.
I know that after this, I’m still driving to work the same way, I’m still trying to recycle glass, cans and paper – and turn lights and devices off at night, but I was doing all this before this event.
I think the guilt trip option has a short shelf life, we need to be more creative about being green.
