Your Views: Letters to the Editor on energy prices
This week, InDaily Queensland readers respond to Olympic park protesters and energy prices, which are poised to drop for households.
Responding to Energy prices poised to drop for households
If possible, it would be great to know why the drop in prices will not apply to regional areas in Queensland. I live in Charleville, and I presume that we will not be receiving the reduced electricity charges despite many homes having solar panels. Is this because power grids in regional areas such as ours are not able to cope with/receive solar power from said homes? I know in the past that plans for solar farms have been scuttled for this very reason.
Nonetheless, it does seem unfair that consumers in the South East of the state will be receiving preferential treatment. – Richard Ranson
Responding to Protesters shift Olympic park fight beyond fences
It’s time rent-a-crowd moved on. 2032 is not that far away; we need to get moving on all required construction work. – Debra Jones
Responding to DSTNTN’s Australia-first mirror homes are perfect for your next off-grid staycation
Wonderful concept! I hope the local birds will learn to recognise the difference between real scapes and mirrored ones! I have enough trouble in my neck of the woods with them flying into my glass windows that reflect my leafy background. – Otto Lechner

Responding to Food bowl fears spark farmers’ call for red tape review
I am an ordinary Queenslander who is part of this equation. I think there are many case studies (both scientifically and politically) about these issues brought by our farmers. For sure, they know very well what high productivity is, because it’s all about the bottom line plus economic benefits to consumers.
Why not just cut the red and green long tapes to increase production and lower our cost of living? Red and green longer tapes are one of the most expensive inputs for our farmers, hence consumers pay for them. It affects consumers’ pocketbooks negatively.
Cut them per their requests. They know what they want to produce better and more efficiently. They have to reduce the cost of their inputs. – Romeo Esangga
