Summary |
"This week Steve Cannane asks, "Are we really a generation of binge drinkers? Do we need to get off the booze?" Each year around 250 Australians aged 15-24 dies as a result of alcohol. Earlier this year Kevin Rudd announced a new 53 million dollar strategy to tackle what he called "the binge drinking epidemic among young Australians." But is drinking just a problem for teens and twenty somethings? are they being unfairly blamed for a much bigger cultural problems? This week, we've got a room full of binge drinkers, tee-totallers, drug and alcohol experts and a drummer in a metal band who's never been drunk." -- edited from website |
