  1. How are the crops going on all that new land? Oh wait, it's just sand and pebbles.
  2. What utter misinformed rubbish this comment is.
  3. Apparently some did other wise we wouldn't be having a referendum. I'm not sure any recommended against it. I'd say you're blowing smoke up somewhere you shouldn't.
  4. No. The country is already badly divided. The proposed changes are intended to address. that. Bottom line. No metric by which you can measure Aboriginal people's life in Australia could be worse than it is now. Not doing something won't move the needle away from the world's worst health and education outcomes. And I didn't even mention the pernicious racism. What's been tried before could not fail any harder.
  5. If only Trump's dad had worn a condom.
  6. Many people thought climate change was a strong factor in that election. Between abortion, the environment and climate change, Trump is on the nose.
  7. Then why is a constitutional body being mooted. You know better than the experts who have recommended it? You make it seem like nothing has ever been tried.
  8. But not ending fossil fuel subsidies? https://www.imf.org/en/Blogs/Articles/2023/08/24/fossil-fuel-subsidies-surged-to-record-7-trillion
  9. You don't think there's a level of climate change that would reasonably, if not must, result in human extinction? No tipping point that we could reach?
  10. To try and fix the world's worst health and education outcomes.
  11. So don't bother trying to then? A consultative committee bound to fail so off to the pub instead?
  12. I live in a studio. It's over 70 m2. I think a single person doesn't need more, a couple would need a separate bedroom I think. Size is key, at least 40 to 50 m2.
  13. How about the head of the UN? “Humanity is on thin ice — and that ice is melting fast,” United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said. “Our world needs climate action on all fronts — everything, everywhere, all at once.” https://www.pbs.org/newshour/science/humanity-can-still-stop-worst-consequences-of-climate-change-but-time-is-running-out-ipcc-warns The IPCC has just released its 2021 report and the big takeaway is that time is running out for the planet unless policies are enacted now to halt climate change. The IPCC has made it crystal clear the future is now and that we have only decades to stop the damage before it hits the point of no return. https://monacolife.net/ipcc-says-humanity-needs-reality-check/ In recent years a number of prominent figures have warned of the possibility of human extinction as a result of man-made climate change https://www.smh.com.au/opinion/human-extinction-it-is-possible-20140402-zqpln.html
  14. Fixing the world's worst health and education outcomes.
  15. Link to this BS please? Actually, don't, it's off topic. A bank failure is a little more difficult to predict than when the evidence is staring us in the face. We can safely predict that we are gone by 2100 if we don't do something about climate change. We like to think we are a bit smarter than in 1920. We can actually know that we are headed for extinction by 2100 if we don't plan.
  16. Your narrative is getting a bit stale 'ol fella. Tracking the EV battery factory construction boom across North America Here's where the US stands on EV battery production, 1 year after the Inflation Reduction Act was signed The onshoring of battery manufacturing for EVs started as a trickle during the COVID-19 pandemic. Now it’s a tsunami. In 2019, just two battery factories were operating in the United States with another two under construction. Today there are about 30 battery factories either planned, under construction or operational in the country. https://techcrunch.com/2023/08/16/tracking-the-ev-battery-factory-construction-boom-across-north-america/
  17. That's been tried for decades. What do you think they have been doing?
  18. 'Reprehensible': Top FL newspaper blames Miami for allowing Enrique Tarrio 'to exist in plain sight' Miami Herald points out that years before the insurrection, "Miami already knew about this guy. Tarrio was a stain on this community long before Jan, 6, when he was parading around with a bullhorn and a bunch of other black-shirted men, his extremism on full display during gatherings at places like Versailles." Yes, Trump incited the assault on Congress — and encouraged the Proud Boys to 'stand back and stand by' in 2020 — but Tarrio was instrumental in carrying it out," the board emphasizes. https://www.rawstory.com/reprehensible-top-fl-newspaper-blames-miami-for-allowing-enrique-tarrio-to-exist-in-plain-sight-2664981261/
  19. I believe Biden personally pinned the medal on the soldier.
  20. Apart from the laws to ban them and then the laws required to prevent ownership. But you know it';s impossible as guns are made world wide. Far better to restrict ownership.
  21. The single most common weapon used in mass shootings in the US is the AR-15.The weapon is special for gun nuts and mass shooters. https://time.com/6278608/ar-15-rifle-assault-weapons-uvalde/
