Wonderful presentation of highlights from his book. Best point made by audience member who pointed out that we need a system of following up on results of legislation. Instead we pass legislation and blindly continue it to sometimes disastrous results. Then, instead of adjusting or reversing said legislation, we tackle the "new" problems as though they had nothing to do with the prior legislation. Enough of that nonsense! The point is not to say that all environmental legislation is wrong/bad, but to say that continuing all legislation indefinitely sometimes causes disasters that can be worse than the problem they were intended to solve. If we continue all legislation whether the results are useful or counterproductive, then we are wasting a lot of money and effort on mistakes which could be corrected and potentially benefit from.
Keep up the great work Iain Murray!!!!!
