The problem with this threat to our tt farmers is that it is based on giving lab rats a large amount of tea tree oil to drink if you read the article! People do not drink tea tree so the basis for the risk seen by the EU is very dubious.

The problem with this threat to our tt farmers is that it is based on giving lab rats a large amount of tea tree oil to drink if you red the article! People do not drink tea tree so the basis for the risk seen by the EU is ridiculous. Tea Tree oil is brilliant and has been used for thousands of years by Aboriginal people, let alone the rest of us in it essential oil form.

Welfare advocacy organisations are asking for an increase in income support because unemployment is expected to rise as well the cost of just about everything else. We’ve always got money for military weaponry (for Australia’s protection) but not so the people can eat and have a roof over their heads? Feeding and housing the population is the first priority I’d have thought, of any government particularly in a rich country like ours.

It’s important to be informed about what is happening so that we can hold our politicians accountable in advance and ask them "What are you going to do about this? How are you going to help the most vulnerable? When are you going to take such measures?

And, really not a helpful comment re America. Many, many Americans are dismayed by what their government is doing. We also have plenty of deluded people here.

Not so funny for the farmers.

Love this! It makes sense on so many levels.

Yep, and real estate investment practices are stealing homes from everyday people and the vulnerable. That’s another theft that’s hurting people who end up on the street because there’s nowhere they can afford.

Such programs for the mega wealthy should be legislated to contribute a percentage of profits to programs for everyday people struggling with addiction challenges. Someone who can afford $600,000 could afford to pay 10% more and this could go community programs. That’s my wish.

And this ‘class’ is the one which can wield power over a world they feel no part of nor really care about. Epstein and his enablers and employers, for example.

Other half? No, the other 1%. This is shameful.

Just read the above description or go to the registration page. It covers a wide range of topics. In any case, if you or a friend can’t watch it at the time the webinar is on, I can bet it will be recorded and you can watch it in your own time and see.

Perhaps we’re slow on the uptake.

Seriously, If other countries have been refining their own SAF, it’s possible. That’s why a number of refineries are already at different stages of development. As that guy in the article says: “Nothing in the fuel business is ever cheap, other than the final product.”

😆

At least Hairy-nosed wombats can have more than one burrow but don’t ask for CGT!

I got this today pointing out very well why banning the phrase is wrong and mentions the Qld Jewish man and what his stance represents: https://www.lyrebirddreaming.com/post/from-the-river-to-the-sea-why-banning-a-phrase-is-a-bad-idea?cid=041a981b-853b-4355-a7b0-1182c033c5f6

I think they’d be bits which would be applicable and other bits not. But it might help people think about the various aspects and how it might be adpated to where they live.

Great article. All of us who can should be looking at ways of growing food by ourselves or with others and organising in our communities. The food situation is not going to improve seeing what is happening supply and climate wise. We must ask our state governments, councils and other local authorities and organisations to support, prepare and set up community gardens and similar systems so that at least the most vulnerable (which will increase) have access to fresh food they can afford. We should no longer just see this as niche practice. We are lucky in Australia we still have quite a lot of open space available which we should use for habitat for native species and to grow food.

😆 Cute Aussie Possie syndrome!

It certainly is interesting. It may show how flawed the law is.

You are selecting the bits that agree with you.
