The next few weeks are crucial. Australians can choose to assist the creation of the World Carbon Rationing, Tax and Redistribution Authority, administered by the United Nations, or we can take a step on the road back to energy and climate sanity.
The first step to sanity is to ensure that the opposition votes at all times to REJECT whatever Ration-N-Tax Scheme the Rudd government tries to get on the law books before the Copenhagen Climate Conclave. We must give no encouragement whatsoever to this international cabal of levellers.
Malcolm Turnbull and the warmist wing of the Liberal Party think that they are being politically savvy and achieving something useful by negotiating with the devil on a few clauses of the ETS (Extra Tax System). In matters as crucial as this, compromise is defeat.

I am the President of the Wooster Street Branch of the Australian League of Simpletons.
We simpletons do not believe that carbon dioxide has any adverse effect whatsoever on the climate – none. On the other hand, we believe that carbon dioxide is beneficial to all plant life everywhere through the marvel of photosynthesis.
Plant life in turn benefits all mammals as it releases oxygen. All decent scientists agree with us, as they are appalled at a decision of The Australian Society of Vandals, (otherwise known as The Labor Party), to inaugurate an ETS which will tax us into industrial oblivion.
On the other hand we have the Leader of the Australian Society of Dills, (also known as The Liberal Party), who want to install their own brand of inauspicious anti-industrial EMS. The leader of The Dills could not win an election even if they were the only party for whom we could vote.
Then we have the Australian Society of Rationalists, (also known as The National Party). They share the views of we simpletons. Their chief spokesman is Barnaby Joyce and a few other rational politicians. They are the only ones we simpletons would feed.

What is the real agenda behind the proponents of an ETS, a tax on thin air which will do nothing to alter the climate for better or for worse? They have successfully recruited large numbers of useful fools who have been brainwashed into believing they can ‘save the planet’ by doing petty things such as this claim at the bottom of an invoice received recently from a supplier: ‘We’re Green. We have saved a total of 0.5143 trees since January 2005 by using paperless invoicing for 4287 invoices’.
It would have taken less effort to simply plant a tree, for all the good even that would have done in the vastness of things. And what is a tree? What is 0.5143 of a tree? How much carbon dioxide does it contain? Questions, questions. This is the sort of Garbage In – Garbage Out that we can expect if any form of an ETS is introduced. How many lawyers, accountants and regulators will waste their lives measuring, auditing, accounting for and policing thin air? And to how many decimal places? And how are we going to feed them all while the producers of real wealth sink in a tidal wave of paperwork even if the forms are paperless.
Prosperity is the key to eliminating real pollution (particulate matter, rubbish, sulphates etc) on a global scale. An ETS will introduce a new pest into this country more destructive to our prosperity than the rabbit, and our ability to deal with natural climate change will be greatly diminished if our politicians continue down this yellow brick road, at the end of which they will find only smoke and mirrors.

Malcolm Roberts examines the “science” promoted by the UN IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change). He comes to these conclusions:
- It is clear that IPCC reports are not scientifically prepared and contradict science.
- The IPCC ignores natural causes of global warming.
- Very few scientists support the IPCC’s core claim and a huge number world-wide oppose the IPCC’s core claim.
- There is no evidence human production of CO2 caused global warming.
- Many IPCC claims are unscientific.
- Many claims of the IPCC are false.
- The lack of an effective peer review process and the unjustified dismissal of well-founded comments demonstrates that IPCC reports were written to a predetermined aim to ensure a predetermined outcome.
- The science is indeed settled – CO2 is NOT causing global warming!

Malcolm Turnbull met coal mining chiefs recently. He said later that the miners begged him to negotiate a compromise deal. They want the Liberals to lobby for exemptions from Penny Wong’s Ration-N-Tax Scheme.
The big miners supported the scheme in the belief that exporters would be exempt, and they would get government funds for fantasies like carbon capture and burial. Now they find that the dog they unleashed is menacing them.
Other Liberal leaders have said that big business wants the “certainty” of the Ration-NTax Scheme. There can be no certainty on the amount of damage any Ration-N-Tax Scheme will bring. The only way to get a “certain” outcome is to reject this bill entirely.
Surely no one except Mr Turnbull wants a Clayton’s version of the Ration-N-Tax Scheme, with a huge bureaucracy administering nothing useful to anyone – it must be thrown out.

When the world was first formed it was all water until the mistake was seen and rectified and space was made available for carbon based activities like hop growing, barley growing, vineyards, cricket grounds, coal mines and other life enhancing activities.
Another carbon material is diamond crystal, the basis of sound relationships between the male and female human organisms on planet earth.
Together with several other elements carbon dioxide plays an absolutely essential part in maintaining all life forms, including plant and fish life.
But we have anti-industrial lunatics, especially in Canberra, who want to eliminate carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, when in fact, it would be advantageous for all life to have up to 12 or more times CO2 than what we now have in the atmosphere.
Anybody who doubts this can see 11,800,000 essays on carbon based life in Google.

The US Senate is yet to vote on the Obama Ration-N-Tax Scheme, the Waxman-Markey bill.
Senators are unlikely to pass it.
Dr Michael Coffman says “Implementation of the Waxman-Markey bill would seriously harm the economy of the United States, cause the unemployment of 6 million people, and substantially reduce the standard of living for every family.
“Perhaps this wrenching transformation of our society could be justified if the doom and gloom forecasts of catastrophic consequences of man-caused global warming were correct. However, over 32 thousand scientists in the US alone are now saying there is no convincing scientific evidence that man is causing global warming. Thousands of leading scientists around the world have radically changed their minds because emerging science is increasingly negating the man-caused theory.
“Science is also showing that CO2 is a miracle gas that has increased global food production by over 12 percent. It will continue to do so at an increasing rate. At best, passing the Waxman-Markey bill is not in the nation’s best interest. It is pure folly. At worst, it is insanity.
“It is all pain and no climate gain”.
