“The Biodiversity Council said a “first-pass assessment” had found the Australian government spent about 50 times more subsidising activities that damaged the environment – including clearing and degradation of nature for mining, agriculture, native forest logging and road construction – than on helping biodiversity.”

This was a cheap and easy announcement for the feds, with no real work being done. Very little is done to protect continental offshore environments and we will lose the Great Barrier Reef as a result.

When I say “herbal” you say “no, thanks”

I’d wager she decided on doing it before she lost her round.

Those Unkle and Jeru the Damaja albums are rock solid recommendations

It is, but the great barrier Reef is within the tropics and so undergoes more of a wet/dry season instead of summer/autumn/winter/spring.

Treating somebody poorly, purely for spite or some form of retaliation, seems like a lot of unnecessary energy to expend on somebody who may not deserve that much space in your mind. The golden rule is not about whether someone has the right to be treated better than they have you, it is about discovering grace within yourself and extending it towards all others.

As to why you should, I could use another turn of phrase- “Lead by example”. You had a poor example in how to extend grace to others in the form of your teachers, and you have the opportunity to be a positive example to others in their place.
