Interesting piece about interstate migration; seems Queensland real estate is getting so pricey it's slowing the movement in that direction.

"New figures reveal that for the first time since the COVID pandemic, more people are heading to Victoria than leaving the garden state, with Melbourne attracting its largest influx of interstate migrants in six years."

(n) The proposed current geological epoch, in which humans are the primary cause of permanent planetary change.

"We have reached an unprecedented moment in planetary history. Humans now arguably change the Earth and its processes more than all other natural forces combined. Climate change, extinctions, invasive species, terraforming of land, and redirection of water are all part of the indelible human signature."

#Pronatalist policies have been shown as ‘impotent’ in budging the long-term #fertility rates. The root problems are #economic uncertainty, problems with #housing, #childcare availability and #gender #inequality in the household," said Connecting Generations Co-Director Professor Melinda Mills MBE in today's The Telegraph:

Well-argued piece about the benefits of immigration, and what would happen if it was paused.

"Too many people have forgotten the surge in prices and the difficulty of getting decent services caused, in part, by the COVID-era effective ban on migrants. Unemployment fell to its lowest level in almost 50 years, which prompted a sharp lift in wages (and prices and interest rates) as businesses struggled to find workers to make your takeaway coffee or check your pet’s teeth. It was that lift in wages, prices and interest rates that contributed to the cost-of-living crisis that angered many – including those who marched on the weekend.

"What those who want to either undo migration or put it on hold should remember is that migrants account for up to a fifth of our healthcare workforce. From staffing aged care centres to doctors in regional centres, getting rid of migrants means responsibility for looking after your elderly parents will fall on you, and that seeing a GP will become even harder than it already is."

Übrig vom Sommerfest...

Jetzt im Lostopf: drei schwarze Salamander-Modelle (lebensgroß, 15 cm) mit jeweils einem gelben Edding zum Bemalen, so kann aus einem Alpensalamander ein #Feuersalamander entstehen.

Wer gewinnen möchte:
👉 Wer uns folgt und den Post teilt, ist im Lostopf.
📅 Teilnahme bis 14.09.2025, 23:59 Uhr möglich
📩 Gewinner:innen werden zufällig ausgelost, per DM kontaktiert & Gewinn per Post versendet
💚 Gern auch teilen ohne Gewinnabsichten.

🦎 Wusstest du schon, dass jeder Feuersalamander eine einzigartige Zeichnung hat? So ist jedes Individuum wiederzuerkennen. Das macht sich die #Forschung zu nutze, um über Fang-Wiederfang die Größe einer #Population abschätzen zu können, oder um einzelne Tiere über einen langen Zeitraum hinweg zu erforschen. Denn: Feuersalamander können in der #Natur über 20 Jahre alt werden.

Mal dir deinen ganz individuellen Feuersalamander!

@ChrisMayLA6 This is good - but not good enough. @ZackPolanski still references #economic #growth as if it was a good thing, there wasn't enough of it, & he wants more. No, it's not - we need economic & #population #degrowth, not growth. That's going to happen anyway, irrespective of any government's actions. People don't seem to understand that I = PAT is a dynamic equation, & can be regressive, as well as progressive.

🗞️🗞️ Also on the Office for National Statistics #fertility release, CPC-CG member Dr Bernice Kuang discussed her research in The Guardian, which has found that young people are reluctant to start #families “when there is #economic uncertainty and apprehension about the future”.
