La Nina Floods have mangled the roads of eastern Australia with pot-holes, gully wash, mud and silt.
Have the Green Teams in the leafy suburbs worked out how real workers can repair roads, fences, culverts and bridges without diesel-powered dozers, graders, rollers and trucks, and lots of high-emission plants producing cement, steel, gravel and hot bitumen?
And what powers the washers cleaning acres of silt from flooded homes and shops? Or the slashers mowing the grass and weeds sprouting everywhere? And where do we get net-zero poly-pipe and fencing materials?
Without hydro-carbons like coal, gas, diesel and petrol we would be back to brooms and brushes, picks and shovels, axes and buckets, stirrup pumps and horse power.
Maybe “Team Teal” can sample the real world by joining the “Blistered Hands Brigade”?
