Don Owers humorously points out the not-so-funny posturing in the Climate Council's loud criticism of Sky News and News Corp regarding disinformation on climate change, in the face of its own strange silence - dare we say collusion? - about the principal drivers of carbon emission growth in Australia, namely government and lobby-group-engineered population and intensive development growth.

The four former colleagues gathered at a suburban Italian restaurant for one of their regular "catch ups.” But were they really catching up?  They had not worked together for about fifteen years but, possibly through habit or email mailing list accident, had still kept in touch.  Only one still worked in the same clinical profession that had brought them together. 

Short simple video gives a good overview.

The new Counting Backwards song, Ballad of Yakamia is now out.  Yakamia contains the last patch of uncleared bushland in North Albany (Yakamia Forest), West Australia, which is under threat from housing development and road construction. The Council chambers are also located in Yakamia and it is there where decisions about the forest are made.

"The Victorian government is preparing Plan for Victoria – a strategic framework for the whole state – while it simultaneously rolls out the most radical program of planning system reforms in thirty years. This report summarises the publicly available information on both, adds analysis and commentary, and offers constructive feedback in the form of positive propositions.

Mornington Peninsula at Arthurs Seat (Wonga) is under threat -  we must say NO to a proposed EXCESSIVE EXPANSION.

Developers are proposing a $25+ million expansion in a STATE PARK, which includes:

A roller coaster like luge up and down the hill, altering the natural landscape
An intrusive bridge over Arthurs Seat Road at the summit
An eight-story viewing platform
A second restaurant at the top station
A major redevelopment of the lower station

What moral right does CHIA, a large, well-auspiced professional organisation, have in fueling animosity against local government candidates who defend their communities' planning powers and their right to veto subdivisions - key pillars of self-determination?

Without a mature discussion on population growth, the housing crisis will extend for years to come, according to Sustainable Population Australia (SPA). SPA National president Peter Strachan says there is deep denial within the government that population is the main factor driving housing demand.

This discussion covers every important base on the push and pull factors for mass migration and the problems that ensue for the receiving populations on which it is imposed by elites. It is worth a library of books on the subject.  Also, on Tommy Robinson, a surprising analysis.

A volunteers' pamphlet for the 1956 Olympic Games shows a photo of the then Lord Mayor (Sir Frank Selleck) and describes Melbourne as " a proud city of 1.5 million people" and its suburbs with tree lined streets giving privacy to "neat homes”.

Artist Sheila Newman will be the artist-in-residence at Oak Hill Gallery in Mornington from Wednesday, July 31st to Tuesday, August 6th, 2024. This timely residency comes as the Victorian government prepares to impose significant population growth and high-rise development in the fragile and biodiverse region. Newman's exhibition will feature striking portraits of former M.P.

Jenny Warfe delivered this submission and spoke to it verbally at Planning Panels Victoria, Frankston hearing on C160fran Ammendment. The Amendment would mandate population growth-engineering and a mega city in Frankston, at the head of the Mornington Peninsula, on Port Phillip Bay. Port Phillip Conservation Council (PPCC) Inc.

Currently Planning Panels Victoria is sitting in Frankston and hearing multiple objections to the State Government plans to force Frankston to absorb a continuously increasing number of new people, in order to provide profits to the Property Development and Finance oligarchy that has basically taken over much of government policy and planning in Victoria.  We begin by publishing the summary of Sheila Newman's verbal submission to the Planning Panel given 4 July 2024, with her

Nobody controls immigration into Australia. If Big Australia wants to increase it, they can't. If Small Australia wants to reduce it, they can't. When John Howard said, "But we will control who comes to this country," he was lying then, and it is an even bigger lie now. 

In early 1990 I changed my name to ZPG and stood for the NSW Senate because of the big lie - that without immigration, Australia's population is declining. It was so wrong then, and it is so wrong still. But recently Nine/Fairfax/ABC/SBS/News have been revving up the old propaganda. Is the big lie propaganda being orchestrated by dark hands?

On the eve of the International Day for Biodiversity (IDB), Sustainable Population Australia (SPA) calls on governments, including our own, to  acknowledge that human population numbers and growth are primary causes of  habitat loss and, in turn, biodiversity decline.

"The Victorian Government has failed to fund 500 housing places for young people living with mental illness almost three years after making the commitment – a key royal commission recommendation." (Council to Homeless Persons, Melbourne City Mission and Orygen)  The homelessness press-release says nothing about how massive overseas immigration and investment has driven the excessive demand that has resulted in high prices and housing shortage, but this is the elephant in the room, and t

Sustainable Population Australia is mourning the loss of its former trustee, Dr Lowitja O’Donoghue, who died in Adelaide yesterday.

Dr O’Donohue was the inaugural chairperson of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Commission (ATSIC) patron of the Lowitja Institute, a research institute for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health and wellbeing.

Most Canadians hate state-engineered rapid population growth through mass migration, but Canada's public broadcaster, like Australia's, along with the corporate newsmedia, has for decades pretended that there was little opposition.  The following article, from Canadians for a Sustainable Society, gives a history of the propaganda and the disaster, which many Australians may relate to, and reviews some signs of change.

Frankston Beach Association: "The fight to save our coastal amenity from high rise buildings along Kananook Creek is not yet over despite the Minister overturning the decision to impose 3 storey mandatory height limits along the precinct.

Funny and interesting delivery. "Australia has spent several months promoting and holding a referendum on the Voice for Indigenous Australians - all the while the Housing Crisis is destroying millions of Australians' Lives. This video highlights the critical issues that are destroying the Australian Housing Market which must be voted on now (with a referendum.)" (Bikos Konstantinos)

Australia’s  population of 26.5m grew at the rate of 2.2% (year ending March 2023.) At 2.2% growth rate our current population would increase to 30m within 10 years and double in 31.85 yrs and would reach 150m by 2103, within the life-expectancy of a child born today. Less than 25% of that 2.2 rate of population growth was due to natural increase. Without the 454,361 migration, we would have grown at about 0.55%.
