Hi Sarb, with regard to your comment about transformational change (and, yes, I did get the precipitate (or precipitation) pun) I think to an extent it depends on how directly it affects each individual. In my opinion, we often won't or don't make changes unless something directly affects us. As an example, with regard to flooding, I live on a hill that isn't particularly steep and the water from heavy rain runs off down the hill; it doesn't have a big impact on me. But if I was living at the bottom of the hill, I expect my view would be somewhat different.
