There's a back stabbing, two faced, lying wranger who wants to take your money in the name of saving the planet.
I've posted time and time again about the CO2 truth, so I'm not going to write about it again.
What I'm writing about is that the lucky country has picked up our tab. You see all that green in the pictures below?
Well that there greenery has sucked in more CO2 than every Australian resident combined will produce for the next 30 years.
awesome photos flysurfer
and its more than a money stealing scam, we are about to lose more freedoms in the name of the threat from global warming than we ever thought possible under the guise of the equally false threat of terrorism
if only more people would read uncensored, latest issue out this week
our tab is what?
Co2 per boob?
Or Co2 per ton of coal that we sell to china to stay lucky?
Good point though. There are trees and someone is going to raise some taxes to encourage people to burn less because most scientists believe it....
^^^^^you enviromental monster
So when the trees fell,
did they make a sound??
or were the dozers to loud to hear them.
Funny thing tho is the planet wouldnt need saving if all you bastards would stop breeding like rabbits!
Anyone who has had a kid has no right at all to bitch about their environmental foot print.
Population growth is the root cause of pretty much every major social and environmental problem.
2 weeks ago = Summer;
Wet season in Darwin; everything was green or underwater.
What happens if it dies off? Well the world continues to spin, the soil gets mulch, flies eat the rest, and you take some more from the wranger
Now seriously, Australia is in good shape, I know QLD got a little flooded, but the rest is looking good.
Dr: Let me know if you want hi-res versions ~10-20MB
@Roar: I'm also in favour of no gun controls.
Will 25,000,000 people reducing CO2 emissions by 10% actually make a stick of difference?
Shouldn't we be getting CHINA, INDIA, US and ASIA to reduce their emissions by 0.5%
I'm sure if you do the maths, whatever we do and however we do it, our contribution will do diddly squat for Mother Earth except make a lot of tax revenue for Princess Fiona and help Bob (I like) Brown sleep a little betterer.
Economic trends can influence the growth or shrinkage of fiscal deficits in several ways. Increased levels of economic activity generally lead to higher tax revenues, while government expenditures often increase during economic downturns because of higher outlays for social insurance programs such as unemployment benefits. Changes in tax rates, tax enforcement policies, levels of social benefits, and other government policy decisions can also have major effects on public debt.
Why would they introduce a mining tax a flood tax and now a bull**** carbon tax if our country is running at a surplus?
Probably build more detention centres and pay the EU to bail out half of Europe. sounds like a conspiracy again .. we need to get peter mac and cisco onto it asap.
The carbon tax is going to happen.
I have not followed it much but on a recent trip out to Trundle to pick up a Kombi we saw thousands of acres of land that has been planted, reforested would be a more apt description. With all the rain they have had the place is transformed.
Apparently BHP et al have bought up heaps of land and they have not cut corners. Quite a lot of the land was marginal wheat and it is now a forest.
They do not go to that sort of expense without having been tipped the nod.
It is planted that thick that it should go up like a torch in years to come. Then they will be able claim losses and profit from a replant
"Now seriously, Australia is in good shape, I know QLD got a little flooded, but the rest is looking good."
Not so wet in the south west of WA, we have towns trucking in water because their dams dried completely. Its as dry here as anyone can remember.
I reckon its a good idea to put in place policy that can insure us against the rising costs of fossil fuels.
The big users of energy ( Co2 producers) should be taxed more and the proceeds put into developing clean renewable energy sources.
It will cost much less in the long term, I reckon.
So from recent threads I am not allowed to like or support :
Green
Brown
O'ranga
Carbon
White
Pink
It's getting to be a grey old world.
Elcoco, good that you have an opinion but think this through.
The technology for green renewable power is already there and has been for years. This country is sitting on a mine of energy that is so vast and so easily accessible that the mind boggles.http://www.geodynamics.com.au/irm/content/gdyanimforweb/GDY_AnimV03_webversion.html
I watched a program on this on the ABC back in the early nineties. How simple is it, drill two holes, inject water under pressure and harvest free energy, forever, no emmissions.
There has to be a reason that it still has not been done and the only one I can think of is that it is not in the interests of the people who hold the purse strings.
Imagine if you could get it off the ground then! With free energy we would control the worlds steel markets, smelters at the mine sites.
That would make the coal loader at Newcastle obsolete. They might stop dredging the river and killing the prawns
Dream on
But why so long? I have been looking at their page and I cannot believe some of what I see. It is exactly as shown by the ABC 20 years ago. Same locations same technology.
Drill two holes and pump water down. The arseholes do it to harvest gas.
This sort of thing should be a national project like the Snowy River Scheme, only financed by government issued currency. Reckon the population would back it?
Would certainly benefit the population, but like I said it has the potential to shut the coal trade down amongst other stuff.
ranger is making us a very rich millionaire with carbon tax issue come and see us if you want to buy 200 square metres.
