I don't think that people realise that a huge amount of the problem could be solved if they just did simple things at home.

The general public know the risk but still go on regardless because they are waiting for the government to tell them what to do. The government is thinking that we will all will somehow wake up to the threat and do it our self and there is a big gap in the middle. It's can't be down to just one group to take responsibility and do take action. This problem is just too big, it needs everybody to change their ways or the change will be too little too late.
