You are correct that none of us will live long enough to know the outcome but in the here and now I think we need to be taking action to mitigate the likely effects and damage. God knows how we will afford it. I am quite glad actually that I am leaving.

You cannot change it. You can only cost the lives of those on hospital waiting lists, provide us with a poorer standard of education, provide a sop to those who think that batteries create less of an issue that existing supply chains do, and produce an increasingly larger group of poor people. We will continue to delude those children coming out of an already substandard education system with no grasp of statistical integrity, mathematical skill or critical thinking abilty; that we in some way are going to change an outcome that we cannot change, for no quantifiable benefit from the real costs on the most vulnerable in our societies.

Show me the outcome that will be achieved for the resources that are going to dedicated to it.
