A: I am quite happy with my neighbourhood, considering I live in a large student housing accomodation, so for now, the neighbourhood reflects mostly what I would like to at least experience, both good and bad. Any issues I have I go to accomodation services rather than a local MP.
A: As a young person who will soon enter the workforce and grow up and have children of my own in a decade or so, the instability in politics and ignorance to the future is something that bothers me and would love to have fixed.
A: Public Transport
A: Climate Change/Renewable Energy
A: I believe politics are out of touch with reality and the need of people and of the world. We need to transition towards real democracy. It’s no longer sufficient to vote for a “package” of policies every 4 years. Policy makers and administrators must be accountable more frequently. Information must be easily available and objective.
A: The Enmore Park and the Cooks River.
A: Car
A: High School
A: Pollution. Aircraft noise. Expensive housing. Congested traffic.
A: The economic model is outdated, The environment is a suffering, the majority of people are lagging behind. Bank interests are eating up the well-being of people, one third of what we spend goes to bank interests. The monetary system is warped, governments are paying interests on their own money. All over the world politics are doing the interests of the top 1% of the population. Big business lobbies have too much influence. If we look at the top companies in Australia they are banks, insurance companies and financial institutions; something is not quite right in the economy.
A: Economy & Standard of Living
A: Climate Change/Renewable Energy
A: Please provide more rubbish bins. If we are to fight climate change we need more rubbish bins.
A: Bourke St is a beautiful yet quiet street next to all the restaurants and cafes. We are a step away from the City yet we see trees and flowers everywhere, without too much traffic.

A: Living in East Redfern is absolutely wonderful to the scale of the planet. And it’s an 8 out of 10 to the scale of Sydney. However I feel like robbery is more present here than in most suburbs.
A: I’m assuming we are talking at local level. Whilst I believe climate change is by far the most preoccupying problem in the world today, I say Education is the second. Problems are usually not created by people who have been given a good education. It is not easy and not everyone would react well to the same things, but I strongly believe education is the key for a better future for everyone as an individual, and as a community.
