You have local elections this week right? If it's not too late, speak to your family, friends, co-workers, kid's friends parents. Write to your candidates. I know nothing about the state of local politics in Australia but overall political change is the big impact.
Join, even to get the updates - you might not have time to volunteer or contribute regularly but occasional is better than nothing:
https://ausrebellion.earth/ - there will be local groups, cycling groups, family groups etc within XR you can join tooFor something more hands-on - https://transitionaustralia.net/ - find your local group.
I used to be a bike mechanic, but that was close to ten years ago now. Spent a few years since as a hydraulic service tech, and now I'm looking after a warehouse. I'm in Melbourne, Oz.
And yeah, not much free time these days, most of my posting has to happen while pooping.
