But for nearly thirty years, Peter Andrews' work was rejected by scientists, bureaucrats and politicians alike - until the evidence became difficult to ignore.The Australian Story episodes on Peter Andrews, generated unprecedented viewer response.Now some very influential and highly placed Australians have rallied to his cause - and the scientific evidence and international interest are building as well.The result has been some significant progress... but some of the same frustrations.. |
