Jane Hume doesn’t support WFH.
Did they misquote her or was she dropped on her head as a child?
But it doesn’t help small businesses. It certainly doesn’t help the truckers and the fishers and the farmers and the manufacturers and the miners that are relying on fuel supply.
Actually encouraging or dare I say mandating WFH for office drones would help those who can’t WFH as it reduces demand for fuel.
Reduces demand and reduces the amount of traffic on the roads, which has the dual effect of further reducing demand (since the trucks themselves get places faster and more smoothly, using less fuel) and also improving operational efficiency because trucks arrive sooner and more predictably.
Not really. Higher speeds increase fuel consumption, and traffic light timings don’t change with fewer cars on the road. They might save a little on roundabouts but for the most part I think the effects would be negligible.
Our work said no. Honestly i kinda hope we run out of fuel. Allies of the US need a kick in the bum to make a move on trump and this is it. This shit is getting expensive, and thats before you think of the live’s lost already. Just embrace China, why fight it. Change is the only constant
If that’s the lesson you think needs to be learned, you’ve learned the wrong lesson from this.
We need to take more ownership of our petrol/diesel/oil supply. We need to stop relying on other countries for things we can do right here at home.
We export like 90% of our crude oil and we’ve only got like 2 refineries so we also import like 80% of our refined oil.
My point exactly. We shouldn’t be exporting it, and we shouldn’t be importing it.
So how do you replace the billions lost?
You don’t need to. If we make our own oil industry in Australia we will be significantly better off.
