"The case studies – ranging from the southern NSW lamb producers, who developed their environmental management programme from ‘mind maps’ to the tuna fishermen in Port Lincoln with their wonderful story of learning from experience that less can mean more – are telling examples of people doing the right thing and getting rewarded for it."  "The case studies – ranging from the southern NSW lamb producers, who developed their environmental management programme from ‘mind maps’ to the tuna fishermen in Port Lincoln with their wonderful story of learning from experience that less can mean more – are telling examples of people doing the right thing and getting rewarded for it."  The Honourable Peter McGauran, Formerly Australian Federal Minister For Agriculture
