Your comment Robin, "For me there is an inbuilt bias that industrial civilisation is a net good, something that I cannot go along with but the people who would take away our freedoms are moving us further and further (and further) from Nature." is spot on -industrial civilisation is a long way from filling our needs which a simpler & gentler life would do. Still, not long to go before we will be experiencing a simpler life albeit one with higher levels of discomfort (emotional & physical) and violence.
