I think the thing there is they don't and that's exactly the brand they are trying to implicitly advertise to voters who are shamed into silence by the new environmentalism. They are the party for the person who isn't willing to reduce their standard of living so we can be an idealistic nation while the rest of the world's inaction renders our sacrifices useless. Quite frankly I'm not willing to freeze in the winter waiting for a bus so China can build more coal-fired generators with the permission of the UN because "It's up to the G8 to lead by example to get the ball rolling."
