For owners of roof-top solar power generation systems, "market operators" may turn off solar power generation (age, 7/6) during the day, rather than saving the remaining power to battery storage, for use at peak demand.
This logical solution will reduce the demand for coal
Help to achieve the main goal of people using solar energy, that is, to prevent global warming.
John mcll in the west of Brunswick is worrying, and the number of wild fish in Australian waters has dropped sharply by third (6/6 years old ).
Over-fishing is a major factor.
Globally, 98% of the oceans are open to some form of fishing.
Therefore, the fishing of marine life is not sustainable.
The ocean is not only regarded as an infinite resource, but also used as a dumping ground for waste.
Our attitude towards it is arrogant.
Hopefully with the emergence of new technologies that provide more information about the importance of the marine environment, this is changing.
Lee Akram and Daniel Andrews are proud to announce that they will be punished more if the ceo is underpaid and "reckless in endangering the safety of their employees.

Burning pollution in La Trobe Valley?

Bernie McComb of Phillip Island waste incineration is not a real renewable energy source.
Non-urban garbage
Renewable, consisting of materials such as paper, glass and plastic.
These materials come from limited natural resources such as forests, and we are destroying them at an alarming rate.
All incinerator technologies have potential health and environmental risks and are not helpful in changing the cultural mindset of our continued consumption.
Burning "garbage" for the purpose of generating electricity creates a demand for "waste" and hinders efforts to save resources, reduce packaging and encourage recycling and composting.
More than the materials processed in landfill sites and incinerators can be re-processed
Use, recycle or compost in an industry with the potential to provide 10 to 20 times more work than an incinerator.
Michelle Goldsmith from EaglehawkGarry Meller (letter, 6/6), you don't need to buy a plastic bag to use as a bin liner.
I use old-age newspapers.
Just fold the layers to fit your trash can and it will work well.
It's not worth getting your hands dirty because you know you're no longer contributing to the scourge of plastic bags.
Trish King, BallaratGarry Meller, you can always use newspapers or other waste paper, but why do the trash cans in the kitchen have to be lined up?
Can't we empty it in the council bin and wipe it or wash it if necessary?
The National Water Initiative was established to manage our water resources, but exemptions are allowed for favored industries, including the extractive industries.
Therefore, it was not until 2077 that the Queensland government allowed the Adani Carmichael mine to enter the groundwater indefinitely.

For urban residents, the consumption process may be useful, but what advice does he have for rural consumers with only one or two outlets in the local town?
I live 60 kilometres from Bendigo, Bendigo is the nearest center with multiple stores and all of them charge the same high price except for two separate stores
These are most of the time "traffic jams.
Yes, OPEC and the Australian dollar lower is largely an important factor that ACCC cannot control, but excessive pricing and possible cartel behavior should be good in its short time.
There is another survey (more than 50 people already), is there anyone?
Murray Hall in DunollyI has just spent three days in a small town with stunning heritage buildings, lovely parks and friendly people, only a few hours away from Melbourne.

Many gorgeous old shops are empty.
No restaurant visible.
The locals will love this town. it is in our interest to survive.

Margaret Maguire, CoburgBooks and toys provide excitement, learning and happiness for the children.
I am collecting books and toys to donate to a detained child who sends these items and writing materials to 137 children detained in Nauru.
However, our government will no longer assist in delivery.
Items must be sent by Australia Post.
Pick them up from Nauru's post office for $15 per box and it's hard for refugee families to pay.
Trying to contact the Post Office before arranging
The payment of this fee has not yet received a clear reply.
What should I do?
Donate books and toys, know that this will put a financial burden on refugee families, or let our government deprive these children of a little joy when they spend their childhood in detention?
Peter Conlon of Apple in North Melbourne may have spent thousands of hours and millions of dollars developing new tools that allow users to minimize mobile usage (age, 6/6)What a waste.
The way to control over-use is on every phone produced by Apple: It's called the "off" key.
What people need to do is to use their big computers, their brains and turn off their small computers and mobile phones.
It's really simple.

Jenni King, camberweilan defended the paltry cost of $11 million, distributed over the four years provided by the Victorian government for Aboriginal law and domestic violence services
"These two services provide culturally appropriate legal services," said General Martin Packard ". This is true.
However, given that Aboriginal children are 24 times more likely to be sentenced to imprisonment than they are, I hope that our government will be able to rectify this shameful situation with all its heart.
Balit Ngulu adds an additional $1 million per year, with four lawyers and two cultural supporters, a small part of supporting and advocating Aboriginal children's services.
Obviously, the Labor government believes that it can provide "culturally appropriate" services in football fields, monuments, art centers, etc.
This is not my culture.
The fork of Prince Hillman Packard Margo Rosen Bloom
Tongued comments ignore the professional services provided by Balit Ngulu, which are not or cannot be provided by a funded organization.
Also, considering his governmentthe-

Shareholders of Ewa Haire, Moonee PondsCommonwealth Bank are annoyed that they will pay for the $0. 7 billion fine (letter, 6/6 ).
How many people question how banks accumulate huge profits, which in turn make dividends above average?
Maybe they should see this as a benefit.
Free loans due now.
When the federal bank is breaking the law, the CEO, director or senior management receives the bonus and they should return the money immediately.
