Compostable coffee cups causing FOGO confusion as WA transitions to plastic-free

Image
 As Western Australia moves closer to a ban on plastic-lined disposable coffee cups, many retailers are already making the switch to compostable varieties.  But the change has caused confusion for consumers about how to correctly dispose of their cups, which environmentalists say could be eased if there was more consistent labelling on compostable packaging. Recycling, landfill, FOGO? Sixteen councils across WA have transitioned to a three-bin system with a food organic, garden organic (FOGO) bin collecting their food scraps and green waste.

McGowan government commits to inquiry into forced adoptions in Western Australia

Image
 The West Australian government has thrown its support behind a campaign for a parliamentary inquiry into the practice of forced adoption. The announcement by WA Child Protection Minister Sabine Winton follows a long-running campaign by people who were adopted out as children, along with mothers who were forced to relinquish their babies. It is estimated more than 150,000 babies were removed from their mainly unwed mothers across Australia from the 1950s to the early 1980s under the forced adoption practice.

Alinta calls for new gas, green energy capacity as coal exodus threatens supply crunch in WA

Image
 One of Australia's biggest energy companies has revealed it wants to build a new gas-fired power plant in Western Australia amid plans to shut most of the state's coal generation by the end of the decade. Alinta Energy, which has more than a million customers across the country, said extra gas-fired capacity was desperately needed in WA's biggest electricity grid and it wanted the "opportunity" to provide the service. The comments from the privately owned firm come as speculation grows that WA's state-owned power provider, Synergy, is believed to be working on plans to build its own gas-fired generator.

What Is ROI And Why It Is Important To A Business

Image
 Hi, It has been a while since I stepped into an unknown territory without calculating the risk. My accountant keeps me in the loop by informing me about the ROI for every department and activity undertaken by my business. It was not the case when we were just a start-up because we did not have the projections we needed. It was only after we realised the importance of making informed decisions, we have been making profits. Using ROI helps in all aspects of the business, ranging from hiring employees to assessing their performance and buying equipment for the entity. I am sharing an article here to explain the importance of ROI for a business.     https://www.business2sell.com.au/blogs/evaluation/what-is-roi-and-why-it-is-important-to-a-business

WA's native logging ban blamed for 'devastating' closure of Nannup timber mill

Image
 The small West Australian community of Nannup has been left devastated by the closure of the town's timber mill, which the council says could drive "a significant amount" of the working population away from the area. After almost 50 years in the timber industry, Neil Marlow is now out of work after the state government's ban on native logging led to the closure of the 100-year-old mill. Mr Marlow, who started working at the mill when he was 14, was among the 45 people who lost their jobs when Parkside Timber closed the doors yesterday. "I don't think it has really sunk in yet," he said. "That's all I know, so for me to try and get another job is pretty grim.

Kununurra resident takes 4,770km journey home from airport after record-breaking WA floods

Image
 Detours are a minor inconvenience for most motorists, but for one man it has resulted in a near-5,000 kilometre road trip past some of Australia's most iconic natural wonders.  Kununurra resident Chris English is currently taking a 64-hour scenic route from Broome to his home town in Western Australia's Kimberley region, via the Northern Territory. That's because the most direct route between the two communities was cut off by the state's worst ever flood disaster earlier this month. The normal drive between the two towns is typically only 11 hours, but by the time Mr English arrives in Kununurra, he would have likely spent six times that behind the wheel of his Nissan Patrol.
