Ziya,

Do not discount the work opportunities offered by kneejerk carbon
neutrality initiatives. While something does need to be done, there
will ever be those that seek to turn fear into cash.

Like Y2K, this is going to keep a lot of otherwise unemployable
webby/coder types off the streets, and like Y2K, some will make a
fortune from it.

We Who Know Better (or, at least, like to think that we do) need the
facts to arm our clients against the inevitable flood of
fly-by-nighters (I remember once we used to call them WAWs - something
like Waiter-Artist-Webdesigners).

Cheers, Andrew
