Population growth key to carbon neutral Australia: Perth pair's controversial theory
Population growth key to carbon neutral Australia: Perth pair's controversial theory
There is a lot of merit in the idea of moving away from the urban sprawl into more compact, self sustained communities with less dependence on motor vehicles.
Imagine being able to walk (that's right, WALK) no more than a couple of blocks to do your shopping,go to the theatre or even find all the businesses you need to interact with right there.
This theory needs fine tuning, but is very likely an answer to a much more sustainable future
for our children and grandchildren.
I would like to follow this idea through to see where it leads.

Australia’s boat people: The wrong solution | The Economist
Australia’s boat people: The wrong solution | The Economist
the number of Australia’s boat people is in fact relatively small. Over twice as many asylum-seekers come in by air. Last year 134 boats carrying 6,535 asylum-seekers sailed into northern Australian waters. Yet by August 22nd this year only 36 boats carrying 2,183 people had arrived. Most of them are held at Christmas Island, an Australian territory off the north-west coast.

Ecclesiates 3
To everything there is a season,
A time for every purpose under heaven:
A time to be born, And a time to die;
A time to plant, And a time to pluck what is planted;
A time to kill, And a time to heal;
A time to break down, And a time to build up;
A time to weep, And a time to laugh;
A time to mourn, And a time to dance;
A time to cast away stones, And a time to gather stones;
A time to embrace, And a time to refrain from embracing;
A time to gain, And a time to lose;
A time to keep, And a time to throw away;
A time to tear, And a time to sew;
A time to keep silence, And a time to speak;
A time to love, And a time to hate;
A time of war, And a time of peace.
