The failure of both Rex and Bonza this year shows just how hard it is to compete in the domestic airline industry. New data from the ACCC this week showed that airfares have significantly increased around Australia since Rex halted major operations in July. Doug Drury, PhD, MA, ATP from CQUniversity says the only way out is actual competition in our skies, but we are a long way from that reality. Read the full article: https://lnkd.in/gPHmED8C

With the end of year fast approaching, many Australians are getting ready to check out of the workplace and take a break. But a recent survey shows Australians are not taking holidays nearly as often as they are entitled to. Why is this happening? And how can employers encourage workers to take time off?

President-elect Donald Trump is a climate change denier who has promised to increase fossil fuel production and withdraw the US from the Paris climate deal, among other worrying pledges. But with so much momentum behind climate action worldwide, there's a lot of great progress he won't be able to get in the way of. Experts from UNSW give everyone who want a healthy planet some reasons for hope.

Authoritarian fossil fuel states keep hosting climate conferences – how do these regimes operate and what do they want? For the third year in a row, the United Nations Climate Change Conference will be hosted by an authoritarian state that sells fossil fuels. COP29 is currently being held in Baku, Azerbaijan. This trend means we have to pay extra attention to political influences on the talks and beware of greenwashing by the hosts. Evidence suggests as climate change intensifies, authoritarianism could gain legitimacy over liberal democratic norms. Understanding how these regimes work, and what they want, is vital as they affect global cooperation on climate change. Read the full article from UNSW : https://lnkd.in/gRZK8w5M

The COP29 climate talks are about to kick off in Baku, Azerbaijan. Here’s what to expect 🌏 The talks this year are crucial as climate change worsens. In recent years, a series of climate-fuelled disasters and extreme events, from Australia’s bushfires to Spain’s floods, have wrought havoc around the world. What’s more, the continuing upward trajectory of greenhouse gas emissions suggests the window to limit warming 1.5°C is almost closed. And the re-election of United States President Donald Trump casts a pall over global climate action. Climate policy and International relations expert Matt Macdonald ( The University of Queensland ) has more on this vital meeting. Read more: https://lnkd.in/eVpA8Tyi

Donald Trump will become the 47th president of the United States. But what groups of voters paved his way to victory? Experts are pointing to a few key shifts that many didn’t predict before the election. From a lacklustre turnout from young Americans to dwindling support from Latino and Black voters, it was a bad election day for Vice President Kamala Harris.

“You can change how you work and live now for a better old age.” That’s what Dr Shiori Shakuto of the University of Sydney learned after speaking to 100 “silver backpackers” in Japan, who embark on a journey of self-discovery a little later in life. Japanese retired men who led a work-oriented life struggled to find meaning at the initial stages of retirement. Their lives were characterised by boredom that led to a sense of isolation and low confidence. “Many older Japanese men I spoke to lament not having built a connection with their children or communities at a younger age,” writes Dr Shakuto. But for women, things looked very different. Even women who worked full-time seemed to maintain better connections with their family members and local communities than men. Do these stories feel familiar? Dr Shakuto says her findings can be translated into the experiences of anyone who spent excessive hours at work and those who spent more time cultivating relationships outside of work. While these relationship-building roles are not as valued as traditional workplace productivity, her research shows that it is the relational work that carries more value in old age. How we spend our working lives can lay the foundation for a better retirement. https://lnkd.in/gtB_MERg
