Australia housing bubble

[Citroënbender]

As so often, a bunch of waffle in its final iteration.

There’s still no meaningful steps towards sustainability in preliminaries, no mandated recyclability standards for incorporated materials, no enforceable and meaningful green space requirements, no commensurate spot penalties.

It’s going to be more of typical Australia; gaming the system while avoiding more actual work. Once consumers are exposed to these costs the bleating will commence: “Nobody told us!” (never mind they could have done their own research) and companies “We need more time to comply, and our struggling customers need a break in government fees”…

So we’ll see an uptick in imported materials of alleged but questionable compliance (there will be zero enforceability when breaches are found), and the ongoing waste of recyclable elements will be simply BAU multiplied by population growth increases.
