March has been another unkind month with further
natural disasters causing havoc across the planet. The
massive Japanese quake followed by the equally
massive tsunamis that pulverized fishing villages along
the coast, brought to us, sitting in the comfort of our
lounge room a chilling feeling. Just recalling the image
of that black wave of water spreading inland, destroying
everything in its path, is numbing. The nuclear fallout is
perhaps even more disturbing. No matter what the
experts say – we just do not know what this means for
our environment and the flow on impacts to those living
on the planet. We are now hearing of not just problems
with ‗radioactive‘ veggies at markets but what of the
produce from the oceans? It appears that the fallout is
going global being either swept towards our coasts by
the tides or carried in air by the wind.
We have barely recovered from the Christchurch
disaster and then Japan and now the Myanmar quake.
Given the closed nature of this third-world country we
can only hope that those in need receive it.
The other points of interest worth watching is the stealth
attack of the 2 supermarket giants as they attempt to
wipe out all corner stores with the huge reduction on,
firstly milk prices and seemingly now possibly beer. And
don‘t let your guard drop when it comes to petrol prices,
soon doom and gloom reports will start hitting the
airwaves, probably driven by the oil firms themselves,
letting everyone know that as the cost per barrel moves
past $100 we should expect prices to hit $1.80 per litre.
No mention of the fact that as the A$ rocketed past the
US$1.00 mark from its lowly levels of around 70c, whilst
the cost per barrel plummeted, yet somehow the cost
per litre seemed to always hover around $1.30.
Will we ever understand how petrol pricing works?
