Fixing outdated environmental laws (the EPBC Act)
Destruction as usual ?

“Australians are tired of the bush being bulldozed and burnt and elected a government that will act on nature and on climate." They expect "sweeping changes to the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act (EPBC) in the next 18 months."

"The past failures, combined with the approval of major fossil fuel projects and the rushed passage of laws to protect Tasmania’s salmon industry, have environmentalists worried about Labor’s second term."

"Environmental organisations also want an end to the “climate blindness” of Australia’s environmental laws, an end to loopholes such as the effective exemption granted to logging under regional forest agreements, and a clearer focus on what’s needed for the recovery of threatened species."

"Corporate Australia needed to “leave its bludgeons at the door” as the process started afresh."

"Ending habitat loss was the “bottom line outcome”, ...meaning that native forest logging and agricultural land clearing must be addressed in some form."

878 #ClimateEmergency #Pacific #SeaLevel

We seldom think about sea level rising. What was it ? A few milimeters in a hundred years, according to Trump. And of course he is wrong.
But we don't. We put it away in some dark corner.
But on the other side of the planet, it's a very different story.
Take your time for this one.

Quote by AJE:
"Jun 11, 2025
Rising Tides, Shifting Powers delves into the poignant reality of Pacific islanders grappling with the existential threat of climate change and the complex geopolitics involving the United States and China. The episode opens with Millicent Barty, a climate activist and entrepreneur, whose daily life exemplifies the immediate dangers faced by Pacific communities. As sea levels rise, their cultural heritage is at risk, mirroring the precarious future of the entire island nation.
Simultaneously, Suluafi Brianna Fruean, a Pacific Climate Warrior, represents the voice of young Pacific Islanders on a global platform. She campaigns for the urgent need for climate action for the Pacific.
The episode weaves together these personal stories with the broader themes of superpower competition, revealing how the Pacific islands, while small and geographically distant, are at the forefront of major global issues. The finale of Rising Tides, Shifting Powers leaves viewers reflecting on the resilience of Pacific peoples and the critical role they play in shaping their destiny amid rising environmental and geopolitical challenges.
Fight for the Pacific, a four-part series, showcases the Pacific’s critical transformation into a battleground of global power. This series captures the high-stakes rivalry between the US and China as they vie for dominance in a region pivotal to global stability. The series frames the Pacific not just as a battleground for superpowers, but also as a region with its own unique challenges and aspirations."

City planners can have super design ideas and plan it out.
But in the end it is about who decides, step by step, all the way:
does he [rarely a she] drive a car OR does he walk, bike or something else.
If you always drive, or get driven, you shouldn't be qualified to make those decisions. You have no real perspective on the problem. You're NOT an expert.

I thought we all agreed on 1.5 degrees C° ? Paris 2015.
But the last ten years we did nothing but increasing the problem.
These days we're normalizing 2 degrees C° . While all prediction shattering and we're going for 3,5 C° !

What the F are 'we' doing ? This is not alarmist, this is reality. For happy news go to Disney.

If only I had that space on the shoulder mannn for my wheels. Why do toys need their own lane? Get off the road, this is only for big boys like us cars. My bike hangs on the wall of my garage, and I sometimes take it to the beach. I have a coworker who commutes to work on a bicycle. How dangerous. You need a car mannn it's too risky on bike mannnn. I got a new bike for Christmas to ride in my neighborhood. But no going further than that."

You know how it works: in order to get views you name your video with an extreme title; the click bait. Uninterested opinionated people that scam just the headlines to get that opinion. What a way to start a conversation, with an opinion.
And everyone does it, both sides ! No wonder it is impossible to talk with different views on things.
How very ultra boring ! I can only talk with people that agree with me. How do I leran things ?

Let's start over. Let this video be a starting point of talking about traffic.

Take me: I DO hate cars with good personal reason: they take away my breath. They use too much valuable space. They kill... ah you get it.
And I get you: You need a car where you live [rural USA], to get anywhere, to work. You love driving.

First commitment: nothing has to change right away [this minute] BUT things will have to change [next month]
Second commitment: your opinion doesn't matter [for once] , it's about suggesting solutions. About thinking things through before screaming stupidity.

Now viewer of this video...
would you please contribute to all-encompassing and/or comprehensive solutions, bearing in mind those two commitments.
Present them being open for discussion. It's not about being right, it's about GETTING it right.

"Do Urbanists Want to BAN CARS?" [9:14 min]
by Oh The Urbanity!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AoAtoaAgm0g

Quote by OTU:
"Jun 9, 2025
One of the strangest parts of advocating for more walkable, bike-friendly, transit-oriented cities is constantly being accused of wanting to ban cars or saying that no one should ever drive. Things like: “my grandmother delivers fridges for a living, how do you expect her to do that on a bus?”
I’ve always seen this as an expression of car-culture, a hyperbolic scream that if you don’t give cars everything then you’d might as well be banning them. But recently I’ve been hearing more urbanists say “I do want to ban cars” so in this video I want to look at the question in detail."

Quote by TGAS:
"Apr 12, 2025
In this inspiring documentary, a Scandinavian family share their journey of transforming barren, lifeless soil into a thriving, self-sustaining ecosystem.
Over 12 years, they have built a regenerative permaculture farm with perennial plants, integrated livestock, and a resilient food system - all while creating a sustainable home and business.
With deep expertise in permaculture, agroforestry, and ecological design, Karoline Nolsø Aaen and Tycho Holcomb demonstrate that restoring the land is not only possible but essential for future generations. Through hands-on experience, research, and a passion for nature, they have developed a model farm that nurtures biodiversity, improves soil health, and produces nutrient-rich food.
This film offers a rare glimpse into the principles of regenerative agriculture, showing how dedication, knowledge, and a deep connection to nature can heal the land and inspire much needed change."
