This film, being shown all throughout Australia, and now available here at WUWT shows what the Gillard government is doing to prepare for the worst unstoppable effects of climate change. It’s quite something. RealClimate has declined comment.
Happy Friday Funny everyone! That’s the best laugh I’ve had since Elmer’s M4GW original “hide the decline” video.

Ecotretas @ur momisugly 10.53 pm. No we are not! Something like 80% of people in Oz don’t believe we should have a carbon tax. It was a skit! But that lady on last Mondays Q & A ABC repeated all the crap you see on this.
There was a B grade film produced in Australia titled ‘They’re a weird mob?’ Through the eyes of an Italian immigrant. I think it was made in the 1960s.

Nino Culotta author
and the book They’re a Weird Mob is well worth a read,better than the pic;-)
Patrick at 2.26 about Australian history only 200 years old. Actually palaeoanthropology and Archaeology dates back 50 k plus but of course our indigenous people survived the ice age and mini ice age. I have a BA in this, and it proves that human evolution (palaeoanthropology) has proven without doubt that before 10,000 years BCE no modern humans Homo sapien sapien lived in the Northern Americas, Asia or Europe. But the earliest Australian colonists did record
Sydney weather as being a lot hotter than today. Australian Aborigines could not advance to
agriculture as we had no cloven hoofed animals only marsupials, and no native grasses that could be domesticated into wheat, barley or other cereals.
The thing is prior to before 10,000 years ago the majority of humans depended on hunter, gathering and possibly fishing from their immediate environment. That’s before the climate allowed them to develop domestication of some animals and agriculture of some kind as basic as it was.
The big lie, the BIG LIE is AGW and climate change. People thinking that CO2 is a pollutant,
and not just a natural GHG and that cutting carbon emissions and turning to green or clean or renewable energy sources will change the climate to the benefit of human beings, when there is no basis for this scientifically. I can’t tolerate this lie. And I believe it is everyone’s duty to make sure this lie doesn’t change government’s to promote clean energy or carbon taxes on the lie perpetrated that it will change the climate. King Canute knew better, why not these so called
politicians promoting the carbon taxes on Australia.
It’s like a bad episode of V, the series

Sorry, I meant orangatang.
Ferd: Tim Flannery actually predicted eternal drought in Queensland. This caused the dam people there to RETAIN water from Gov advice, during massive rain event last year, 14 people died and billions was lost in property, The Qld is now being sued… thanks Tim
Goodbye Mountains…
In addition to all the other calamity… global warming will tear down the mountains too !!!

I am so embarrassed to be Australian right now. *sigh*
It is pretty tough at the moment, I don’t know where the current crop of knuckle heads in Canberra came from but the depth of incompetent personnel in both party’s is staggering.
The Kiwi’s beat us in the rugby too.

Funniest comment of the day!
They are so smart, well educated, and privileged and so full of it. How long before their sanity is questioned as the source of their eternal fear that ordinary people cannot manage their own affairs?
In the movie they were taking the most brilliant minds in research to another world to start mankind over from scratch in need of the essentials of life such as food clothing and shelter, but were there any farmers, miners or people in the trades? I have not seen the movie for a while so I don’t know but if the global warming people were in charge of who went on the ark they would fill it with politicians and bureaucrats.
I think PM Gillard raises an important issue and the following questions need to be addressed on a national level, that is 1. can assification be stopped in Australia, 2. are current levels of assification permanent, and 3. has it spread into the drinking water.
Funny, when I hear of worlds colliding… I think of Immanuel Velikovsky. Seems most think of the Hollywood movie. Is this a generational difference or a sign of the times? GK

This is one of the levers used behind the curtain to control the masses. We are the few wise men who take care of things for the good of society. Trust us. We know what we’re doing. We are royal and you’re not. We are the academic elite and well, you’re a dog. We are the Federal Reserve. Trust us. We know all about managing money and the economy. We, the exalted, have been chosen by the gods/god and well you haven’t been. Fear, force, religion, giving and withholding love, money, food and rewards all come into play.
Last night, I listened to a talk given by Richard Hoagland (former NASA advisor & Walter Kronkite science advisor). It is more of the same. The elite Templars, sons of Horus, have secret wisdom. It is written in the stars with tetrahedral codes, numbers and physics. Things happen on special dates like 9/11. We are the masters and you are….well the dogs/slaves who serve us. Trust us. We will take care of you in with our secret halls and councils. Look up to the stars for the answers. That way, you won’t see us pulling the levers behing the curtains.
Watching climate colonization is an incredible project implementation to watch.
Its the most alarming media broadcast since Orson Wells read out “The War Of The Worlds” as a series of news bulletins, that people thought was for real.
Thanks for a great chuckle – sadly the knuckle-heads in various governments are so far gone they can’t see that we’ve seen right through them. As I said during the Cold War era – show me where the bunkers are for all the ‘elite’ then let them go inside and seal the doors. Now we move in with the D9s and bury the lot.
Why the surprise? People have been brought up on science fiction ‘science’. Alien invasions, asteroid strikes, earthquakes, tornadoes, super volcanoes, ebola, commies, you name it.
That end quote really sums up the alarmists’ mantra: “This may not happen for a million years… but now you’ll see what could happen…”
I guess the Saskatchewan papers aren’t read across the border in Montana:
http://bing.search.sympatico.ca/?q=Saskatchewan%20Carbon%20sequestration%20fail&mkt=en-ca&setLang=en-CA
The stuff started bubbling up in groundwater. Some animals died in a quarry where they were suffocated by CO2 filling in low ground. From the Montana dome a leak would flow in all directions and fill in river valleys where peolple live.
This has nothing to do with climate – anyone with half a brain cell still working would recognize a socialists redistribution tax scheme in the guise of climate. The Brits have a similar scheme. The independent Brit Report on the government’s green plan entitled The Green Mirage, exposes the colossal scale of public subsidies for renewable energy and warns that by propping up many of these schemes, ministers have simply ‘picked losers’ and prevented the development of more cost-effective ways of generating energy.
It says the UK’s £5billion subsidy to renewable electricity generators in the eight years to 2010 was the equivalent of paying every worker in the wind industry £230,000. Each job in the wind industry was subsidised to the tune of £54,000 last year.

For our Australian friends please read this taken from James Delingpole of the Telegraph on January 11th, 2011.
I am sitting here in my home in South East Queensland, watching the news come in about the flooding everywhere. Entire suburbs around Brisbane and several smaller towns are either isolated by flood-waters or have been evacuated. Highways are cut everywhere.
People have been dying. So far about 20 people have died in the past week – nine just this morning when a deluge went through the Lockyer Valley. Most of them children. Another 70 are missing. One could put it all down to “just” weather.
Except EXACTLY the same floods occurred in EXACTLY the same places back in 1974, with much the same tragic loss of life and destruction of property.
Back then we weren’t nearly as clever and learned as you think yourselves to be today. Back then we had this silly notion that climate was cyclical, and if we didn’t prepare for it, we would have a repeat of the same tragedies to deal with in “about thirty years”. That was the thinking of the scientists back then – that climate went in roughly thirty year cycles.
Flood mitigation programs were planned. A series of levee banks and diversionary dams would be built. Brisbane and SE QLD would NEVER suffer such devastation again. After all, we had thirty years to plan and build and improve.
And that’s what we did – or at least started. Wivenhoe Dam got built as the first step, but by the time it was finished clever people like you lot who “knew” that such things were never going to happen again had taken over. CO2 AGW madness had already taken hold.
Instead we had “post modern” minds like Tim Flannery “advising” the government that because of Anthropogenic Global Warming, SE QLD would be perpetually in drought from then on. “Forget dams and flood mitigation programs”, intoned the wise Dr Tim – “build desalination plants instead”.
So that’s what our government did. And that is why thirty five years later, we are once again suffering exactly the SAME tragic loss of life and destruction of property, pretty-much exactly where, and when, and how, those stupid scientists who foolishly believed climate was cyclical had predicted.

It seems that you think that Tim Flannery is ultimately responsible for the death and destruction caused by those floods, then.

Thanks everyone for confirming my point.
What was your point? Whle I may not agree with some of the slagging directed your way, I’m trying to figure out what it was you actually said!

I’m sorry, what point was that? I must have missed it.
