• 1960’s – no oil in ten years
• 1970’s – Another ice age in ten years
• 1980’s – Acid rain will destroy all crops in ten years and the world will starve.
• 1990’s – The Ozone layer will be gone in ten years and we will all roast.
• 2000’s – The ice caps will be gone in ten years.
• 2010’s – It’s never going to rain again and cities will run out of water (thanks Flannery).
• 2020’s – If we don’t reduce our carbon emissions the world will heat up causing existential extinctions and collapse of civilisation.

Most Western Governments have acted as they always do, they take pressure from public opinion and weave that into their policy. For centuries we have had doomsdayers standing on street corners preaching about the end of the world. Now they have discovered a new more powerful and highly profitable online world where they can all get together and preach their rhetoric

The world’s climate has been moderated by Green House Gasses (GHG’s) for the past 4.6 billion years. Water vapour is responsible for some 95% of the earth’s GHG’s, Carbon Dioxide accounts for 3.6% of GHG’s and Methane 0.45%. Of the Carbon Dioxide emitted into the atmosphere human activity accounts for 3.7% of the annual emissions with the remaining coming from oceans, volcanoes and land. Australia accounts for some 1.2% of global carbon emissions. According to some of the ‘scientists’ we must reduce our carbon emissions by 7% per year or the world will cook.

Human activity produces about 29 gigatons of Carbon Dioxide (Co2) annually (3.7%) with lands and oceans absorbing about 40% of this Anthropomorphic (man-made) emissions with 60% compounding in the atmosphere. Annully 750 gigatons (96.3%) moves through the carbon cycle by natural processes. Australia is the world’s 14th highest emitter, contributing 1.2 per cent of global emissions.

So, our greenhouse contributions to the planet are: 3.6% (GHG) x 3.7% (human activity) x 1.2% (Australia) = 0.0016%. And it gets better, we are told we need to reduce this number by 7% a year. So, if we do this we may make 0.0015% difference to the world’s atmosphere. For the old school it will make 15/10,000 (fifteen-ten-thousands) of a difference.

i wonder how much China funds Green pressure groups and promotes climate change though social media as it certainly increases their sales of panels, wind generators etc etc, transfers manufacturing to them away from the West and weakens western economies by increasing energy costs.

We now even have the Insanity where the climate evangelists are attacking rural production seeking to reduce fertilizer use, animal production etc which ultimately will threatening our food supplies - Holland, Sri Lanka are just 2 examples of this so far.
