The real problem - unsustainable lifestyles

This item from the BBC again really gets to the point:

Focusing on the need to reduce CO2 emissions has reduced the problem to one of carbon dioxide rather than on the unsustainable ways we live.
Is it not time to recognise that climate change is yet another symptom of our unsustainable lifestyles, which must now become the focus our efforts?

This issues was raised on this blog before see here. The concept we need here is moderation... how long will it be before we accept it?
