"The Greens political party are not interested in solving the problem at all…

Albanese was taking a jab at the Greens for making memes on social media about housing affordability in Australia.

That’s some next level projection there. Labor’s policies first and foremost seek to ensure housing continues to rise. They want to give the appearance of doing something to the media, while having no real impact.

I really like this. I’m sure politicians are at least a decade away from considering it though.

It should not be viable for office workers to drive their V8 turbo diesel ice cap melter in to the CBD each day. Would need a sizeable levee to make an impact to that behaviour.

tries to commodify a counterfactual β€” a thing that hasn’t happened

Reminds me of the cultural burning program where allegedly burning higher swathes of the country deliberately in a β€œcool” fire will somehow prevent further carbon release in an uncontrolled fire.

Both are just ways to side step making actual impacts to carbon emissions.

IMO We need to lift the quality of construction and waste management.

My workplace office building has bait stations all over the place because the doors are so poorly sealed that rodents can get in. Rubbish is left in a stinking open skip in the basement.

Hopefully the politicians can do the right thing for once rather than being corrupt arseholes. Certainly plenty of previous examples of our pissweak pollies letting β€œindustry” dictate what suits them instead of the public.

I’d like to see average fleet sales emissions ramping to zero by 2030.
