Australia’s new Australia Labor Party/Green/Teal government has a Zero Emissions plan, putting them on track to be the world leader of the Green Lemmings.
John Kerry of the USA was a strong contender to win the Green Lemming race. But he was given a stiff handicap by UN organizers because America has access to coal, oil, gas, hydro, and nuclear power, plus cross-border pipelines and power lines. [bold, links added]
Biden is trying to close these loopholes.
Eight nations have withdrawn from the Green Lemming Games. Russia has joined China, India, Brazil, Indonesia, Mexico, Iran, and Turkey in forming a powerful new G8.
This hard-headed group ignores the net-zero dogma unless that suits their business plan. The G8 members have diverse reliable energy supplies — oil, coal, gas, hydro, and nuclear.
They use wind/solar for virtue-signaling or to earn billions making and selling millions of green toys to Net Zero Lemmings.
Europeans were disqualified in the Great Green Race — they were caught cheating.
They pretend to run on intermittent energy from windmills and sunbeams, but whenever these fail, they quickly fill the power shortfall with reliable energy from French nuclear, Scandinavian hydro, Polish and German coal, Icelandic geothermal, North Sea natural gas, and (sometimes) Russian gas, oil, and coal.
Australia has aging coal plants (marked for demolition), wildly unstable supplies of disruptive and intermittent green electricity, oodles of gas (but unwelcome in local markets), and abundant uranium for export (but none for local nuclear power).
Australia is also a remote island with no extension cords to neighbors with reliable energy. It is a clear favorite in the big green race.
Sometime soon, at dinnertime on a cold still night, the Aussie winners of the Great Green Lemming Race will be acclaimed by widespread blackouts and a failing economy.
Just had a look back at your Greta hatchet job and noticed “In reality, a 2016 paper in the journal Nature Climate Change examined three long-term satellite datasets and found “a persistent and widespread increase” in “greening” or plant growth “ B ut neither the paper not anyone else provided any dat on the quality of such greening.
In fact that is yet another of your problems, i.e. making unsupported claims.
Here on Fantasy Island formerly known as Australia we are led by people with about as much working brain as the US president. There seems to be an indecent rush to destroy what is left after the Wuhan virus fiasco. It really seems like the dominant left are choosing a path of destruction our country as there seems to be no science attached, no plan except cut our measly emissions by some date like 2030 then Net Zero by 2050. Maybe there is a really big money trail here we need to find.
Dave, why not try talking sense for a change rather than in infantile political jargon?
“the Wuhan virus fiasco” Bless, you mean SARS-CoV2. Regardless, the reason it was a fiasco in Australia was entirely due to the total incompetence of Morrison et al, i.e. the government of the day. The ALP had nothing to do with it. That is one of the main reasons for his resounding defeat. Maybe you should stop worshipping at the altar of the Great Lying God Murdoch.
“the dominant left” Erm, no, you seem to be ignoring the TEALS, i.e. former Liberals who understand reality.
“cut our measly emissions” You mean the 14th highest per capita in the world at 17.10 tons pa (China 7.38)? Australia’s problem isn’t reducing its own emissions, it is replacing coal as a major export.
“Australia we are led by people with about as much working brain” The majority of the population totally disagree with you which is why Morrison is a has been and his party is in total disarray. Repeating Murdoch lies is most unbecoming.
First of all: can you prove that CO2 is a pollutant?
Answer: you can not as it is not.
Making all of your arguments moot.
The left are lemmings following a fairy tale.
Please come back when you have the facts straight.
“First of all: can you prove that CO2 is a pollutant?” Ask Davew, he posted ” our measly emissions” I simply provided the numbers. Not too bright are you
“Answer: you can not as it is not.” Pray tell, what exactly is a pollutant? Here, I’ll help aqs you obviously have problems accessing facts.
“A pollutant is a substance or energy that is introduced into the environment and has undesirable effects or affects the usefulness of a resource. A pollutant can cause long-term or short-term damage by changing the growth rate of plant or animal species or by impairing human convenience, comfort, health, or property values.” so most things can be a pollutant, can;lt they.
“The left are lemmings following a fairy tale.” Why are you obsessed with politics? Answer, because you are a science illiterate and lash out in hate and fear at what you can’t comprehend.
“Please come back when you have the facts straight.” That os what those who believe Earth is flat say to me, so you’re in “good” company.
The Greenpeace,NRDC,Friends of the earth,Earth Island Institute Etc reen Lemmings running off t cliff for nothing at all to gain but big headlines in the New York Pravda(Times)and the Fake News Network of CNN
Bless, are you feeling OK? Your posts are somewhat infantile and unhinged.
Your post proves you dont know much about anything and depend upon the M.S. Media for your news CNN and the NYT’s are not good news sources
Bless, you obviously don’t realise there is a big wide world outside the USA where people not only aren’t interested in CNN or the NYT but access scientific and professional publications for their information. And do work in relevant fields of course.
Why are Septics so dumb and gullible?
