Endangered Species, Climate Science, and FACTS

At last something positive to talk about on the climate science front. The globe, (that’s the planet in case you didn’t know) has just uniformly passed the 400 ppm carbon dioxide level. That means that even far flung little outposts like the northern tip of Tassie are giving us a uniform reading. And better news still, is that just about every where else on the globe the carbon dioxide levels are all comfortably above the 400 ppm mark. And that’s what we at PCbyCP like to see. All the indices are UP! That’s GROWTH! And, thankfully on this, the boldest experiment ever in human civilisation, (the term is qualified) we can hold our breath and stand together with all other species as we plummet into uncharted territory.

This artist’s impression shows a view of the surface of the planet Proxima b orbiting the red dwarf star Proxima Centauri, the closest star to the Solar System. The double star Alpha Centauri AB also appears in the image to the upper-right of Proxima itself. Proxima b is a little more massive than the Earth and orbits in the habitable zone around Proxima Centauri, where the temperature is suitable for liquid water to exist on its surface.

The scientists tell us, and they’ve been banging on for years, that we’ve got something really really serious to worry about. But scientists are notorious at worrying, and it never does any good. If we listened to scientists we’d be still in the stone age. Most recently a scientist remarked upon the likelihood of life on other planets. He said wryly, that “this is the only world we’ve got”. Any child could’ve told him that. And then to top it off, another scientist, an Astrophysicist, no less, told us on the ‘Science Show’ that our closest celestial neighbour Alpha Centaurii, had an earth like planet circling it. He the told us that the earth like planet was in the ‘Goldilocks zone’. Can you believe it? We pay these people good money which could be spent on sport, french submarines and the NBN and they indulge in fairy tales. And then, when asked; “Would that planet have intelligent life, capable of being similar to us?, he wryly remarked, “ Well….. if it did, and they were on a similar trajectory to us, they’d probably be extinct”. And why? ‘Because they probably would have depleted all their resources, and died out, as we are destined to do’.

What a cheek!! To think that we humans as species could wipe ourselves out. I agree with Mr Bernardii, Abetz, Christiansen, Roberts and Mr Murdoch. Science is rubbish!! Further evidence that the ABC should be privatised, stripped of assets, and silly programs like the ‘Science Show’ closed down.

Cleverer than any scientist. And way richer.

Then, dear reader, it gets worse. I heard that SCIENTISTS reckon we’ve depleted over fifty percent of wildlife since 1970. How’s that?. They also reckon we’ve depleted over forty percent of our forests and biosphere generally in the same period. They say it’s a further instance of our diminishing foothold on the planet. They reckon, that this is the beginning of the end. And we shouldn’t go on, clearing, killing, and populating. What bullshit. At the supermarket, they had five 150 gram tins of tuna on special for the incredibly low price of $ 4.99. And at the Factory outlet superstore they were boasting a ten kilo bag of Rice for the ridiculously low price of $ 7.99. At that rate you could virtually give the stuff away. And, this’ll top the lot, wheat, flour and Nutri-Grain were all on special. Buy two, get one FREE! If that’s evidence of depleted resources I’ll be buggerred. We’ve got resources coming out our arses. The sooner we get rid of this ‘green tape’, we’ll slide into a whole new era of prosperity.

And besides the word aint four billion years old, it’s just on seven thousand. The bible tells us so. And if you can’t read the bible, talk to Barnaby, Corey, Eric and George, and (you might have guessed it, ) Rupert. They’ve been telling us for years, and Donald knows it to be true. The world is in great shape, and climate science is a commie plot, to take over the world and turn us into SLAVES! Lucky then, we have the aforementioned to give the world strong leadership. It’s what it needs. The Prime Minister is doing a great job. Giving us certainty, certainty that will provide long term security for working mums and dads. And Jobs and growth. And, that’s a FACT!
