Artistic
Enhancing the Indian Pacific Experience
Now
here's a great idea for Great Southern Rail. The high profile tourism train
passing through Northern Spain actually stops at night time to maximise the
traveller's viewing experience across the changing landscapes. By way of
comparison, the Indian Pacific journey across Australia is worth reviewing
because most Australians don't realise that arguably the most scenic and
variable part of the entire experience is traversed (in both directions) at
night-time, i.e. across New South Wales. Why not have the journey extended by
two days to include night time stop overs at Broken Hill, Adelaide or Port
Augusta, Cook, and Kalgoorlie?

Soil Carbon/Regenerative Agriculture
As
suggested by John Hewson, “soil carbon/regenerative agriculture, especially
with the roadmap’s improved measurement technology, will happen quicker and
more substantively if farmers can sell the carbon credits they create by
improving the carbon content of their soils. It would give them another income
stream that would reduce their need to put their hands out for welfare-type
assistance in times of drought. Indeed, simple changes in farming practices —
shallow tilling, organic not chemical fertilisers, crop/animal rotation, improved
land clearing and reforestation, etc improve carbon content, making their
soils more drought resistant.” In short,
better management of 'negative emissions
technologies.
