20.01.2022 This item is from January this year but well worth the listen. The Commonwealth Government was warned as far back as 1968 about the risk of asbestos, while Mr Fluffy was insulating houses with loose fill asbestos. http://www.abc.net.au/am/content/2014/s4156395.htm

11.01.2022 Via http://www.3aw.com.au//the-basin-fire-station-closed-as-cf FULL STATEMENT - CFA MEDIA The Basin Fire Station was closed on Wednesday evening as a precautionary measure after a routine building inspection report suggested potential for asbestos in materials underlying floor tiles.... CFA's primary concern is for the health and safety of its members, and will be taking every step to ensure the brigade can continue to operate in a safe environment. Samples of the tiles have been sent away for further testing and assessment. Nearby brigades including Montrose, Boronia and Ferntree Gully are assisting to ensure that service to The Basin community is able to continue without interruption. Arrangements are being made to house the brigade's trucks at alternate locations. - CFA spokesperson

05.01.2022 "A year ago i came across this idea of launching my own lashes into my pre-existing brand as being a girl we are all very much into makeup eye lashes etc. I alm...ost paid a vendor in another country until i started asking her how the lashes are made? Are they cruelty free? She told me they are made with mink hair. I had no clue that mink was not a type of an eyelash it was a real animal we were talking about, my whole world crashed. We are so blinded by fashion, trends and celebrities that we forget to question what we are using. I had been using lashes from different brands known as mink lashes and almost entire Pakistan uses them. I had no clue mink lashes meant lashes made with real mink hair. I started reading about them on google and saw the cruelty in the lash industry and how top brands like sephora and many others have been selling these and were the top buyers and sellers of these lashes. The lady who i was talking to still kept on saying they are mink hair but cruelty free. I asked her how can the lashes be cruelty free if the hair comes from an actual animal? She told me they dont kill the minks but brush the hair off and then make lashes with the collected hair. I again started looking into that method as i had no clue before that day about all this, what i saw on youtube broke my heart. Even the ones that say these lashes are cruelty free are lying to you, because they keep those minks in farms where they are locked up all their life, their skins exposed due to excessive brushing 24/7, imagine being brushed all day so your hair fall, it is not cruelty free. It is height of cruelty, those minks are tied into chains and wooden belts with their heads pinned down and then aggressively brushed for hours till blood starts coming out of their skins. This is what they mean by cruelty free lashes. This is how they lie to you. They cage them again wounded and bleeding and start brushing the next slot. HELPLESS MINKS ARE CONFINED IN THESE FARMS TO LIVE IN TORTURE as their beauty is stolen from them for the heartless brands. They are born into an over crowded hell where four or five of them live in small cages, so they fight each other for space and dominance, damaging eachothers eyes and ears. Their pain and suffering can be seen in the pictures below. They breed the minks in same farms. Minks go into depression and anxiety. They are kept in an extremely unhygienic environment. Minks suffer badly on such eyelash farms and ultimately killed brutally. I then dropped the idea of this cruel business and never bought such lashes again, i even try to educate more and more people around me in my circle and stop them and make them aware of the truth behind the mink lashes. Please try to educate your family members and friends too. Thank God i never got into this cruel business, thank God i never paid her even though everything was done and ready, God stopped me at the right time. It would have given me alot of profit and business as the rates i was getting were very good, If I had not questioned that lady about "How" they were made i would've been part of such big cruelty and would've never forgiven myself. I stopped while i was on my way to sending her the money from the bank. Always question, know your products, read the descriptions, how its made? What its made from? You do not know in how many ways you are supporting animal cruelty indirectly, so start digging in the products you are buying! Celebrities like kylie jenner etc and many brands, makeup artists, influencers and bloggers have normalized these mink lashes so much for us that we blindly get them and dont even know how they are made. Mink eyelashes are often sold by brands that say 100% Cruelty-Free. Collected only after the mink has been brushed, Collected from minks on a free-range farm and Collected only from fallen hair". What these brands dont reveal to you is that these Minks are denied their basic animal rights such as freedom to roam, feed freely and burrow near waters as their preferred habitat. Minks are also solitary animals and display signs of distress when in captivity. These unfair conditions are some of the better ones, a lot of the time minks are killed or skinned on these farms. Please keep these things in mind whenever you see a brand claim to be ‘cruelty-free’ but still use mink fur. These days many girls are getting into this business in Pakistan and all their vendors are china based mostly and making lashes with same methods. Please know that Mink lashes are made from real mink fur and minks are real animals. These mink lashes have a light, soft, fluffy and ultimately, more natural look, matching to a similar quality of natural human lashes. Mink lashes are able to be reused over and over and people pay extra money for these lashes due to the natural look and the fact that they are re-usable. Please stop, dont get into this cruelty. Look for alternatives. Half of the world doesn't know minks are animals. How can you look at yourself in the mirror knowing this is where your lashes came from? Boycott all these products. Please spread the word and raise awareness. Anything that involves an animal, comes from suffering and cruelty." P.s PETA does not approve of any mink lashes even the ones that claim to be cruelty free as PETA knows how these mink farms work and what the minks go through. A look inside a mink farm, please watch this video once if you ever bought or plan on buying these eye lashes. If you are a guy, show this to your mother, sister, wife, friends or any females that you know. https://youtu.be/i4CFDHbPShI "WEAR YOUR OWN LASHES, STEALING THEIR BEAUTY MAKES YOU LOOK UGLY" For more videos subscribe to our Youtube Channel.

03.01.2022 Perhaps unsurprisingly, Russia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Zimbawe have opposed the listing of chrysotile (white asbestos) on the Rotterdam Convention list. The Rotterdam list requires exporters to ensure that destination countries are fully informed about the risks associated with listed products. Another opportunity lost.
