People don't really know about the albedo effect so unfortunately fashion dictates people choices rather than common sense and money saving. Most industrial and commercial units have light coloured roofs.

I live on the Sunshine Coast and nearly every house, including mine, has a dark roof (grey, brown, red, blue etc.). I had my ocean blue roof cleaned 2 years ago and trying to find a light colour to paint it was almost impossible, so I left unpainted. Even a light blue would do but there isn't one

We don't want them here, that is why we are here. We don't need that evil filth to be on this site, that's what Xhitter is for and it's why I left it!

We have been conned by successive governments who have cosied up with billionaire resource scourers. Successive ministers have ended up in lucrative roles within the resource scourers. How much money do these greedy bastards need?!!!!!!

Unfortunately there are people up here in Qld who fist pump these stupid retrograde decisions as a win against renewables, when, in fact they are cheering on higher electric prices and further environmental harm in a vain attempt to appease the coal and gas supply chain.

It seems that WA (across the Nullarbor at least) really doesn't give a sh*t about EVs and their drivers. Lack of interest, care and maintenance from charger providers and a distinct lack of interest shown by staff. Absolutely shameful!

Don't worry about the charger. I order the new V2 one from de at quite a good price.

You could do like Richard Herring does and sells t shirts and DVDs. However, you could put stand up shows and goodies in a USB stick and sell those or sell downloads via a QR code.

Zack Polanski’s response to the Manchester terror attack has been a masterclass in mature statesmanship.

Soulful, human, eloquent, empathetic, nuanced, confident and focused on healing.

And bold. It has shone in contrast to so much weaponising or ill thought through commentary.

Thank you Zack. πŸ’ͺ

Australia is the world's biggest goat exporter β€” so why don't we eat it? Producers and retailers say there are more ways to cook goat than just in curry, but so far consumers have shown little interest.

Well FMD, I didn't know we were the world's largest goat meat exporters! Why on earth can't you buy any in the supermarkets? We have to go to a speciality butcher to get some!

"Escalator operator" isn't a job! There isn't someone just sitting there turning a handle so the stairs can move! It's all done by wizardry and electrics nowadays. There is no one to fire

There was an awesome Greek Restaurant there when I was there in 2013. If it's still there, go in and get a great meal.
