Abstract

The two central tenets proposed by Hanlon and his co-authors Carlisle, Hannah, Lyon and Reilly that something is missing from our current approach to public health and that we are currently facing the prospect of radical change in the way we live -seem to me to be self-evident. The problem is that not all of us are facing this; some are inclined to look the other way. Public health professionals are probably the most experienced of all the professionals working in the health service in weathering change. We have become quite good at seeing the creative possibilities that change brings, as well as the chaos. But the changes that peak oil and climate change could bring are sufficiently scary to warrant a defence mechanism or two, and denial is a good defence mechanism, at least in the short term.
