Plastic recycling is a minefield. Here's why it's so difficult and how we can make it easier
  • As someone who has worked with asphalt, we have tried using different mixes with plastic, glass, shredded rubber and printer ink cartridges in it, hard part is organising it with the batch plants, it only tends to happen when they decide to do trials with it, otherwise it's just the normal emulsion, stone and sand mix. The laying and finish seems relatively the same across all the mixes, time will tell with the time it takes to break down and has to be replaced

    Chance of exceeding the median max temp in Australia Sep-Nov 2023.
  • 12 months ago we had 2m of snow on the top of Mt Wellington in Hobart, today it's meant to be 17°, I know temperature fluctuates but we haven't even seen cold yet this far south

    Highway congestion is starting to bite. How do we get cars off the road?
  • I ride my bike to work when I can as my drive is only 10-15 minutes each way, but when I've got a daycare drop off before 7 each day and then pickup in the afternoon, plus other errands to run the bike doesn't work all the time and public transport in Hobart isn't the greatest. Times will change hopefully
