Carbon 'facts' according to Green Dream Believers

Now to their explanation of why we really need a carbon tax in the form of carbon offsets or whatever other form our leaders dictate.The same CO2 suddenly becomes "carbon pollution" when it is produced by power stations, cars, trains, planes or anything else burning fossil fuels and releasing stored carbon into the atmosphere. Here it upsets the balance of nature and drives "climate change" - even though it's only about 3 percent of total CO2 emissions.

Water vapour is acknowledged by NASA as a much more efficient greenhouse gas and on average makes up about ten times as much of the atmosphere but there is no need to tax that because it wouldn't be possible and also because it eventually condenses into rain which helps cool things down until the CO2 warms them up again, more water evaporates in a type of atmospheric global warming perpetual motion. (Or maybe it's not really warming, some say it's just cooling more slowly than it should).

Trees are good as they help to restore the balance except when they were part of former climate-sceptic PM Tony Abbott's direct-action plan which apparently could not work as well as a carbon tax or a "carbon price".

Simple really…We have been told for many years there is a scientific consensus that the anthropogenic CO2 we emit is responsible for "climate change" and this is accepted by "every reputable climate scientist in the world." Julia Gillard said all that before she ended her stint as PM by pledging "There will be no carbon tax under a government I lead…" then changing her mind. Oops…

Albo and his side-kick Bowen still sing from the same old climate change song sheet and are determined to speed Australia down a destructive road to "net zero" emissions regardless of the cost to the economy and the cheap, reliable source of energy we once enjoyed. And don't mention the naughty "N" word which still remains on the banned list here, while other nations are increasingly turning to modern nuclear reactors as a better alternative which won't have to be scrapped and added to landfill within a couple of decades.

Meanwhile there neverwas any climate consensus, with many eminent international scientists such as Profs Richard Lindzen, Henrik Svensmark, John Christy, Judith Curry, Dr Ferenc Miskolczi, Dr Miklos Zagoni, our own Prof. Ian Plimer, Dr David Evans and the late Pro Bob Carter at odds with the unproven CO2 hypothesis. More than 1800 scientists, academics and professionals have also recently signed a petition refuting man-made global warming and stating, "There is no climate emergency".

It highlights the fact we really do need a proper scientific debate to sort out the claims made by the Green Dream Believers.

Oh and in case you're wondering, the Green Screen Mask and the White Coal bracelet never set the world on fire, in fact they quietly disappeared without a trace and failed to re-appear even during the height of the Covid Pandemic … funny that!
