Extract from Jack Toohey’s book on how we have got it all wrong with real estate financialisation rather than productivity and research.
“Aust finds itself in a paradox. Passive property ownership appears more financially rewarding than productive work…distorted reward system”.

The story of recycling is not one of public apathy but of institutional design. It’s a story of how industries used moral narratives to deflect responsibility.
Citizens do the work, municipalities pay for it, and corporations keep the profits. To fix the system, we must first rewrite that story
