I’m not a proponent of nuclear energy, especially not for Australia, but we need a better whole of system waste management design, inclusive of radioactive waste materials.

Be it from the boats we’re deciding to build, the unresolved temporary on site waste storage at Lucas Heights, or a possible future refining rare earth elements.

Right now all the different levels of government seem to do is farm their waste problems out to contractors when the waste disposal becomes complicated. And these conpanies like Visy don’t seem to invest in much apart from the odd MIRV here and there and stick it in the ground.

Australia has got to be among the most wasteful societies on our planet, (per capita), but we also must have among the best abilities to deal with this problem.

First problem is, its not even on our radar as an issue that holds back our development as a country that does anything else but digging stuff out the ground.

Just listened to this,

Its inspired me to see the impact our half hearted attempts at waste management are possibly having on the strength and diveraity of the nation’s industry.

Been a bit partial to vanilla icecream with one of those mini nonnas apple pies lately. If i’m feeling adventurous, a bit a custard to.

Now, now, you shouldn’t let the print media off so lightly.

The car industry execs should be laughing their heads off at naive bank execs assuming they know more about it than the car execs. Don’t they think the car execs already know what the risk and competitive nature of their own business.

Guess what bankers, this is how you produce positive growth in a real productive industry, and its risky business. Instead the bankers prescription assumes managed decline.

It’s like that new guy at work who constantly tells everyone about ‘hacks’ only they’ve discovered, when everybody already knows about them.
