While the unAustralian Labor government are pissing-away $368+ BILLION on sub's we'll never get, and further billions on handouts to the fossil fuel industries,.. Australians are suffering.
"Have we reached the tipping point for Australian households? According to last week’s Household, Income and Labour Dynamics in Australia survey, more Australians are reporting housing stress, a decline in financial wellbeing and food insecurity. Launched in 2001, the Hilda survey follows the lives of more than 17,000 Australians each year. It found that there has been a general worsening in people’s perceptions of their financial future since 2020; that average financial wellbeing has worsened for 24.1% of females and 20.8% of males; and that the number of people who feel “on top of everyday finances” is down."

CW: Good news. Some things we can fix.
[Oddly thinkerating this morning, I am not sure why. Blue cheese for dinner? IDK.]
Preamble:
In 1978, my grandfather, always going at some windmill, formed a lobby group called 'Save A Life A Day 79'. (SALAD79) winceable - he was terrible at acronyms. It aimed to reduce road deaths by introducing RBT.Result:
Here is the graph of road deaths per km travelled in Australia it was flat for the years leading up to 1979. It declined after 1979.Good news:
Road travel is safer for us than it was for our grandparents. Much safer. Even though we travel further, faster and more than they did.Thoughts:
1. Did making a fuss about alcohol and driving help? Yes. Is it the full story? No.
2. It HELPED, for sure, sometimes fussing really does.
3. Certainly doing nothing does not.So:
Go out and make a fuss.
(Of course, this is a lead-handed metaphor about climate, what other graph does anyone care about? Also #voteGreens) -
