Just a side note on that article re: gaia theory. In year 9 science we
learned about the theory of evolution and the teacher said it was only
still called a theory because of the powerful opposition of religious

and the lecturer said it was only still called a theory because of the
powerful opposition of industry lobby groups. It occurs to me the
consumerist-industrial-capitalist-perpetual-growth-world is really just
a religion anyway :)<br>
