Climate Change Arguing

[The Terrible Thinker]

With all the geopolitical issues going on around the world, the climate change discussion has now been left for dead. The human species is well deserved to go instinct. Planet Earth wont care.

Being middle aged, hopefully I'm dead when it starts to get real ugly. The next generation better get used to living underground.

Between the Europeans moving toward a ban on imports of Russian aluminium and the vandalise a Tesla movement it seems people have moved on.

This week we will see Treasurer Chalmers factor in Cyclone Alfred into budget. Why are we paying for the damages? Why aren’t fossil fuel companies being charged a levy on every tonne of export coal and gas to provide disaster relief? Either we pay or those responsible for disaster do. #auspol

Well I hope everyone who cares about climate change has stopped drinking soft drinks and beer. Each pop of that top and "pssss" as they open is releasing a bit more carbon death into the air, each satisfying burp after a good throw down the old throat releases some more.
I hope everyone is limiting their consumption of carbonated beverages, or for those who really take it serious, stopping themselves from consuming them altogether as the global figures for CO2 production for carbonated drinks is huge!
Don't think just a beer or two here n there is no problem, because as millions do the same the country over and world over the CO2 release is massive. All those soft drinks on the supermarket shelves, petrol station fridges, beer and mixed drinks in bottles and cans at bottle shops and pubs, breweries, soft drink factories. They are all CO2 dispensers and releasers. Just think every time you pop that top you just released more into the atmosphere.
"You can get it working a plough, you can get it anyhow, in fact I got it now, that climate change feeling, open one now!"

Yep.

It's so real the discussion warrants a single post every 14 months.

Why I put this goose on Ignore long ago.

RWNJs have trouble looking two days ahead, let alone two weeks, two years or two decades.

And you LWNJ don’t know how renewable's are made & think they are clean down the environment

Swapping out red meat and creamy pasta sauce could significantly cut household emissions, Australian research finds

Researchers looked at more than 25,000 everyday items available at supermarkets like Aldi, Coles, Woolworths, Harris Farm and IGA

Maybe Joe Hockey was right and we need a price signal to influence people to choose products with lower emissions. Maybe it could take the form of a simple tax, with some cost of living relief payments for the poor and middle class to compensate...

Maybe Joe Hockey was right

Sorry Johnny Bananas couldn't resist

Hey, Joe Hockey also used indoor plumbing. If we disagreed with everything he thought was a good idea, then it's back to sh*tting in the woods.

And I'm sure someone not named Joe Hockey has previously said the same thing Joe said and it doesn't matter where they went to the toilet either

And I'm not sure you had a point, you're just arguing for the sake of it.

I was making a joke but I seriously think you can pick better people to point to than Joe Hockey

Despite the story we can’t do without it, the gas industry contributes very little to the Aus economy. With lost royalties, tax avoidance, subsidies and environmental costs, it’s fair to say the gas industry costs Australians more than it contributes. @pollyjhemming.bsky.social via Women's...

And you missed my joke, which is that Joe Hockey's government is the one that removed the carbon tax, which was the "price signal" to get people to choose less carbon-intensive products.
