Abundant green spaces for everyone, especially, those down on their luck who survive in old apartment blocks, with nowhere to enjoy the outdoors. I wrote about this very thing recently.

I have friends who live in super-stylish apartments, with super-stylish shared outdoor kitchens, and green space. They also have super-stylish holiday homes that for the most part lie vacant, all properties with eye-watering price tags.

I also know of, and again have written about, a woman in the south coast of NSW who, through no fault of her own, lost her house in the 2019 bushfires, who endure catastrophe after catastrophe thereafter.

I wish all of the poorer people those green spaces you talk of Anastasia. Sadly, people down on their luck just don't get to enjoy them.

It's an unfair world. You can tell I'm not feeling upbeat today. Time to get out into that green space. We all need it, don't we!
