The heard mentality is really not good for deciding on critical actions.
The system seems flawed to me when technical decisions are being made along populist lines, when this clearly would be an insane way to say, conduct open heart surgery e.g.
"Hands up all those who think we should cut 'ere"
Similarly our home planet now faces stress. The key finding in the linked report was: Global warming is unequivocal and primarily human-induced
How much more blunt could they be?
Yet our Pollies, media outlets and those who think thermodynamics is just hype (radio 2gb for example) still argue the Titanic could not sink.
