The Greens are blaming their political opponents for summer.
Of course, summer happens around this time in Australia every year. But Greens Senator Mehreen Faruqi says that summer shouldn’t be occurring and that the Liberals need to make it stop.
Noting that the Harbour City was hot over the weekend, Senator Faruqi tweeted: “36 degrees today. 39 degrees tomorrow. Stay hydrated, Sydney. And don’t forget to remind your local Liberal MP that this shouldn’t be happening in November. #climatecrisis”
The Senator, who seems to have had a bit too much sun, did not say when she believes that summer should be happening. It officially starts tomorrow.
Nor did she say what she believes local Liberal MPs can do about summer.
Presumably, Senator Faruqi thinks MPs should take more of people’s money while promising to change the weather by flying to conferences in Europe where they will agree to take even more of people’s money while continuing to promise better weather for everyone.
This junket can be repeated ad nauseam, by simply yelling ‘climate crisis’ on hot days. It’s the best Marxist plan yet devised to accumulate money and power.
But a couple of hot days at the end of an Australian Spring do not constitute a climate crisis.
Discrete weather events are not indicative of broader climate patterns, as we are reminded by the Greens whenever there are below-average temperatures. But politics, right?
So Senator Faruqi, who seems genuinely surprised to be living in Australia, jumps like a cat on a hot tin roof, demanding the Liberals turn down the sun because hot.
That Sydney had temperatures at this same time of year of 39 degrees in 1878 and in 1941, of 40 degrees in 1946, of 41 degrees in 1982, and of 39 degrees in 1988 was of no relevance.
And don’t worry that Dorothy Mackellar wrote about a “sunburnt country” in 1908, long before Senator Faruqi or any other Chicken Little ever thought to run around screeching “climate crisis”.
According to the Greens, the seasons are now Autumn, Winter, Spring, and Climate Change.
Senator Faruqi aims to channel Sydneysiders’ momentary discomfort because of the heat into permanent anger at her political opponents because we are supposed to believe, they could stop Summer if they really wanted to; or at least move it to a better spot in the calendar.
But after a hot weekend, the Sydney temperature today is slightly lower than average and the overcast skies have ruined my planned beach day. So who do I call to complain?

Fall is that time of the year when the nuts fall from the Trees but the Eco-Nut is a constant presents in the Trees
A new study has declared that drownings in ten northern hemisphere countries will worsen due to winter ice thinning from climate change, as reported by the BBC.
However, the Australian counterpart of the BBC, the ABC, has never suggested that climate change will see fewer drownings in inland Australia as “the rain that falls isn’t actually going to fill our dams and our river systems.” They’ve had enough time to do so. That rainfall prediction was uttered thirteen years ago.
Mind you, that prediction has been a bit of a failure, as Australia is currently in a La Nina or wetter climate event for example. Last winter, the US saw quite a bit of snow and ice and could well do so again this year, so maybe the new prediction is no better.
And it may well be that maybes are certainties there.
Doesn’t silly Faruqhi know that the Monday after the hot weekend in Sydney was 16 degrees cooler than what the previous day was?.
How is she allowed out with that level of IQ? Does she have a carer? Really, where is she from and why doesn’t she go back there. Our summers are always hot, I grew up near Inverell in Northern NSW and when I was an apprentice printer we had a summer’s day in about 1964 that was still over 100 degrees on the scale back then at 5pm in the afternoon besides working alongside 650 degrees lead pots on Linotype machines and not even a fan. The poor petals of today need to stay away from air conditioned everything and give their blood a chance to thin a little as nature intended so we handle hot weather. Greens are the epitome of pathetic people.
