MODERATORS
I volunteer with Disaster Relief Australia and worked alongside the ADF in Lismore. They often didn't have the right tools for the job and we'd share our gear with them. If this is going to become the new norm they need a new approach to disaster management that is much more fit for purpose.
On the other hand, I genuinely think we'd all be better off if everyone was given two weeks paid service-leave each year to spend on a volunteer cause they're passionate about. Everybody should feel secure enough donate their skills. There's nothing more fulfilling.
