Delaying action on car emissions will make Australia more vulnerable
We don't know what the car of the future will look like – but that's no excuse to delay transport reform.

France has set its car manufacturers the goal of halting sales of diesel and petrol cars by 2040. The announcement last week came a day after the Swedish manufacturer Volvo declared it will build only hybrid and electric cars from 2019.
Moving away from highly polluting cars is an urgent global priority. Worldwide, transport accounts for 26% of humanity's carbon dioxide emissions and, of these emissions, 81% comes from road transport.
Our latest research, published in the International Journal of Sustainable Transportation, shows that car ownership and the total distance travelled by cars are both likely to keep growing, globally and in Australia.
But just because there will be more cars, covering more ground, that doesn't necessarily mean CO₂ emissions will continue to rise. It depends on a complex mix of population trends, income growth and the impacts of new policies and technologies.
It might therefore seem sensible to delay policy decisions until we can see what type of future emerges. However, our research found that a "wait and see" approach will dramatically increase our economic, social and environmental vulnerability.
Lower-income Australians are particularly at risk. This is because transport accounts for a greater proportion of their household income and they tend to live on the urban fringe where daily travel distances are necessarily higher.
Future-proofing our transport policy means we must engage with uncertainty, not ignore it. That means choosing policies that allow us to adapt to a range of technological or social developments.
We modelled different policy options in Western Australia, looking for options that reduced CO₂ emissions without creating social vulnerabilities. The most effective approach requires simultaneously improving fuel standards, making cars more efficient, and increasing city density to reduce both car ownership and the total distance we need to travel in cars.
However, CO₂ emissions alone don't provide the full picture. Our model found that encouraging biofuels, for example, could mean increasing our agricultural footprint to grow feedstock.
Similarly, electric and hydrogen-fuelled vehicles require energy supplied by the electricity sector. As this sector itself decarbonises, technologies such as solar, hydro and wind will require greater areas of land than coal and gas technologies.
However, managing carbon dioxide emissions and demand on land is not necessarily mutually exclusive. Wind turbines can co-exist with grazing, and decentralised solar panels are already common on existing buildings. Offshore wind farms and solar installed on otherwise unproductive land can lessen impact. Targeted investment in technological efficiency can further reduce this impact.
Using land for both agriculture and energy production could actually give farmers greater economic resilience. Alternative fuels that use waste products or are low-impact (such as biofuel made from algae) are also promising avenues.
The economic case for expensive changes
Although the implementation of stringent transport policy will be costly – it requires massive changes in capital infrastructure and behaviour – it will open up other benefits and saving.
Vehicle emissions are recognised as the source of more air pollution than any other single human activity. These emissions cause hundreds of preventable deaths in Australia every year. (As well as saving lives, we'd also save billions of dollars in related costs.)
Well-designed, more compact urban spaces encourage more biking and walking. This, in turn, reduces chronic diseases that also cost Australians billions every year.

Research shows that compact cities reduce infrastructure costs by 11%; a 2015 report found gridlock alone could cost Australia A$53 billion by 2031. Curbing urban sprawl can reduce the clearing of native vegetation, which benefits the rivers and animals that live around our cities.
Changing the type of fuel used by cars, improving vehicle efficiency and increasing city density are all policy levers that can reduce the footprint of urban cars, but these must occur in tandem. To minimise costs and realise the potential savings, policymakers need to collaborate on finding policies that are flexible enough to adapt to an uncertain future.
Should we have the leadership to implement such sophisticated policy, we might accidentally design a future in which we are healthier and happier too.

The Great Barrier Reef isn't listed as 'in danger' – but it's still in big trouble
James Watson, The University of Queensland and Martine Maron, The University of Queensland
In a somewhat surprising decision, UNESCO ruled this week that the Great Barrier Reef – one of the Earth's great natural wonders – should not be listed as "World Heritage in Danger".
The World Heritage Committee praised the Reef 2050 Long-Term Sustainability Plan, and the federal minister for the environment, Josh Frydenberg, has called the outcome "a big win for Australia and a big win for the Turnbull government".
But that doesn't mean the Reef is out of danger. Afforded World Heritage recognition in 1981, the Reef has been on the warning list for nearly three years. It's not entirely evident why UNESCO decided not to list the Reef as "in danger" at this year's meeting, given the many ongoing threats to its health.
However, the World Heritage Committee has made it clear they remain concerned about the future of this remarkable world heritage site.
The reef is still in deep trouble
UNESCO's draft decision (the adopted version is not yet releasesd) cites significant and ongoing threats to the Reef, and emphasises that much more work is needed to get the health of the Reef back on track. Australia must provide a progress report on the Reef in two years' time – and they want to see our efforts to protect the reef accelerate.
Right now, unprecedented coral bleaching in consecutive years has damaged two-thirds of Australia's Great Barrier Reef. This bleaching, or loss of algae, affects a 1,500km stretch of the reef. The latest damage is concentrated in the middle section, whereas last year's bleaching hit mainly the north.
Pollution, overfishing and sedimentation are exacerbating the damage. Land clearing in Queensland has accelerated rapidly in the past few years, with about 1 million hectares of native vegetation being cleared in the past five years. That's an area the size of the Brisbane Cricket Ground being cleared every three minutes.
About 40% of this vegetation clearing is in catchments that drain to the Great Barrier Reef. Land clearing contributes to gully and streambank erosion. This erosion means that soil (and whatever chemical residues are in it) washes into waterways and flows into reef lagoon, reducing water quality and affecting the health of corals and seagrass.
Landclearing also directly contributes to climate change, which is the single biggest threat to the Reef. The recent surge in land clearing in Queensland alone poses a threat to Australia's ability to meet its 2030 emissions reduction target. Yet attempts by the Queensland Government to control excessive land clearing have failed – a concern highlighted by UNESCO in the draft decision.
Land clearing can lead to serious hillslope gully and sheet erosion, which causes sedimentation and reduced water quality in the Great Barrier Reef lagoon.

A time for action, not celebration
The Reef remains on UNESCO's watch list. Just last month the World Heritage Committee released a report concluding that progress towards achieving water quality targets had been slow, and that it does not expect the immediate water quality targets to be met.
The draft decision still expressed UNESCO's "serious concern" and "strongly encouraged" Australia to "accelerate efforts to ensure meeting the intermediate and long-term targets of the plan, which are essential to the overall resilience of the property, in particular regarding water quality".
This means reducing run-off of sediment, nutrients and pollutants from our towns and farmlands. Improving water quality can help recovery of corals, even if it doesn't prevent mortality during extreme heatwaves.
The Great Barrier Reef is the most biodiverse of all the World Heritage sites, and of "enormous scientific and intrinsic importance" according to the United Nations. A recent report by Deloitte put its value at A$56bn. It contributes an estimated A$6.4bn annually to Australia's economy and supports 64,000 jobs.
Excessive landclearing in Queensland, which looks like being a core issue in the next state election, has been successfully curbed in the past, and it could be again.
But the reef cannot exist in the long term without international efforts to curb global warming. To address climate change and reduce emissions, we need to act both nationally and globally. Local action on water quality (the focus of the Reef 2050 Plan) does not prevent bleaching, or "buy time" to delay action on emissions.
We need adequate funding for achieving the Reef 2050 Plan targets for improved water quality, and a plan to reach zero net carbon emissions. Without that action, an "in danger" listing seems inevitable in 2020. But regardless of lists and labels, the evidence is clear. The Great Barrier Reef is dying before our eyes. Unless we do more, and fast, we risk losing it forever.

The world of fine watchmaking welcomes the new Parmigiani Fleurier Kalpagraph Quadrante Blu Savoia watch.
The tonneau-shaped case of the new Parmigiani Fleurier watch is rendered in white gold. The face of the watch is shielded by an antireflective sapphire crystal. The timepiece is 30-meter water-resistant.
The elegant blue dial catches the glance by its golden elements, including hour markers, Arabic numerals and hands provided with luminescent coating. The small seconds counter is positioned at 3 o'clock, while the 30-minute and 12-hour chronograph counters are found at 9 and 6 o'clock respectively. At 12 o'clock, you will notice the date aperture.
The heart of the Kalpagraph Quadrante Blu Savoia watch is an automatic mechanical movement - Parmigiani Fleurier PF 334. Operating at a frequency of 28, 800 vibrations per hour, the 68-jewel movement offers a 55-hour power reserve.
The new Parmigiani Fleurier watch is teamed with a black alligator leather strap. It is limited to just 10 pieces.


The new German Maternity Protection Act has been in place since January 1, 2018, with several sections of the act changed. One of the most relevant changes for employers concerns the fact that it is now statutory to carry out risk management assessments specific to each type of work conducted within a company. Further changes concern the scope of maternity protection and modifications to the protection periods. Some regulations intended to ensure more flexible work options during pregnancy were also included.
The act itself brought some further changes in 2018. Now, not only are employees covered by the act — so are apprentices, interns and students as well as dependent freelancers and so on. As a result, all these workers are not only protected against dismissal, but also are covered in case of an occupational ban. Managing directors are still not explicitly mentioned. Be-cause section 1 paragraph 1 of the Maternity Protection Act refers to section 7 paragraph 1 of the Social Code IV, it could be argued that managing directors are covered, as section 7 states that all persons are considered employees if they are performing an activity according to instructions and are integrated into the work organization of the company. In general, these criteria apply to most managing directors. The German Parliament, however, has declared that managing directors are not protected under the act because they cannot be considered to be employed. A comparison was made to housewives, who likewise are not considered to be employed. Whether that is a good example is immaterial here—in the end, the question will be answered by the courts. Arguments currently exist for both views.
Changes were also made regarding working hours. To ensure further flexibility, female employees can now work during the night if they declare themselves willing and the relevant public authority approves. This also applies to work performed on Sundays and public holi-days (where no approval from the authorities is necessary). These changes could be consid-ered employer-friendly in addition to giving potential mothers more autonomy, as each ex-pecting employee can chose whether they want to work during the night, on Sundays or on public holidays.
Under the prior statutory regulation, it was sufficient for employers to do a maternity-specific risk assessment after being informed by an employee that she is expecting. This was referred to as event-dependent risk management and was mandatory. As a result, there were no spe-cific requirements to be observed by the employer regarding the Maternity Protection Act prior to a pregnancy. Because the Occupational Safety Act was already in effect, there was no need for further scrutiny of any workplace.
This changed, however, with the introduction of the nonspecific special maternal protection risk assessment (§ 10 Abs. 1 S. 1 Nr. 1 MuSchG), which applies to existing workplaces as well as new ones. Moreover, this assessment concerns all work spaces within a company, not only those occupied by a pregnant employee. Each employer is compelled to comply with this law, even those who do not employ women. Since January 1, 2019, non-implementation of this assessment can result in a fine of up to €5,000. In 2018, employers had the opportunity to adjust to these new circumstances. Now, non-compliance can be fined.
Review all duties carried out within the company. It is sufficient to examine one work space if several employees are carrying out the same type of work. It is essential that every type of work performed within the company is recognized.
Scrutinize which risks result from the work performed with respect to pregnancy. A risk exists if, in the process of carrying out her work, a pregnant or nursing woman would endan-ger the health of her unborn child or the child she is still nursing.
If hazardous conditions for pregnant or nursing women are found, the employer must devise protective measures to fully avert or at least prevent any exposure to danger.
Lastly, the employer must document the result of the risk assessment and inform all potential employees. This includes not only pregnant or nursing women, but also all male employees, since these protective measures must be communicated to them as well.
The underlying idea is that employers should to be prepared for employees to become pregnant and therefore ready to take the necessary steps to protect them, which have already been outlined once an assessment has been conducted. The government intends to prevent occupational bans within companies by mandating these prior protection-specific risk assessments. Employers must comply with the stricter documentation requirements now that fines are in effect. If a company has not yet adopted the relevant measures, this should be addressed immediately.

Il Serpan Peak (in lingua inglese: Picco Serpan) è un picco roccioso antartico, alto 1.445 m, che sormonta il Washington Escarpment, subito a ovest dei Rivas Peaks nel Neptune Range, che fa parte dei Monti Pensacola in Antartide.

Il picco roccioso è stato mappato dallo United States Geological Survey (USGS) sulla base di rilevazioni e foto aeree scattate dalla U.S. Navy nel periodo 1956-66.

La denominazione è stata assegnata dall'Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names (US-ACAN) in onore di Robert D. Serpan, studioso di Scienze dell'atmosfera che faceva parte del gruppo che conduceva ricerche nel Neptune Range nel 1963-64.

The leading sports nutrition brand 226ERS has become the new Official Sponsor of the Garmin Titan Desert for the next two editions, and it will supply top-quality products to the participants so that they can improve their performance in a high-resistance event like the Titan.
Under the agreement, refreshment points 2 and 3 in each stage will have 226ERS isotonic drinks, plus energy bars and gels at the start of each stage, giving competitors a boost in their food and drink intake during the race.
All 226ERS products are gluten-free, made almost completely from natural ingredients and components, with low sugar content (or no sugar at all) and certainly free of GMOs (Genetically Modified Organisms). They have been designed so that nothing can interfere with digestion and the correct absorption of all the nutrients.
The Spanish sports nutrition firm 226ERS owes its name to the sum of kilometres in the toughest resistance event in the world: Ironman. It refers to a lifestyle marked by a desire to go further and achieve targets that seemed impossible. Its entry into the Garmin Titan Desert represents a perfect alliance, bearing in mind the toughness of one of the most demanding mountain bike races in the world.
