Every morning, as soon as it gets light, Judy puts a winter coat over her jamas, adds gloves, glasses, rubber boots, a beanie and a walking stick (icy grass is very slippery). She then trudges down the hill to check any new-born lambs and then lets the sheep out of their dingo-proof night-camp into their paddock for the day. As soon as they are let out, they dribble into a long line and, led by the wisest old ewe, they wend their way across the frosty flat and then make their way up the hill to the highest point facing the morning sun.
Unlike Green politicians, sheep are not stupid. They know that warm air rises so in winter they camp at the highest point they can find. And in cold mornings, they try to catch the early rising sun.
Our house was not built by stupid people - we call it “Hilltop” and it faces North – it usually stays above the frost line in winter. And not all residents of Victoria are stupid either – in winter hundreds of them clog up our highways, heading north to follow the sun. Maybe they are like cattle caught in a snow storm - just drifting north before that cold southerly wind blowing icy air up from the Antarctic?
Al Gore and his Green disciples bleat about the imaginary “dangers of global warming”. They should check where life flourishes – is it in the equatorial zones or at the icy poles? Are there more people in Nome, Alaska or in Mexico City? And if atmospheric CO2 controls temperature, both places should be about equally warm? Maybe it is the amount of heat received from the sun and not CO2 that is the main driver of global temperatures?
And even if they fear global warming, they do not need to cripple our electricity generators here with their green energy nonsense – they should just move South to the Snowy Mountains; or buy a house facing the Roaring Forties at Cape Grim in Tasmania; or even slip down to Invercargill in New Zealand for a permanent cure for those with a chronic dose of global warming syndrome.
Green Pied Pipers and the lemmings who follow them started the ‘”Global Warming Scare”. These foolish politicians and their alarmist media mates know more about political science than they know about climate science.
As each of their forecasts fail, they change their chant – “global warming” becomes “climate change” then it becomes “wild weather” - all promoted, not by meteorologists, but by propagandists in government media units.
Anyone with an ounce of knowledge about Earth history knows that the Mammoths did not die of heat stroke – they were entombed rapidly in ice. And even Saint Greta should know that the real danger to life on Earth is not global warming but global cooling and the inevitable return of the suffocating ice sheets. Here is what an ancient Scandinavian legend says:
A long time ago
the universe was made of ice.
Then one day the ice began to melt,
and a mist rose into the sky.
Out of the mist
came a giant made of frost,
And the Earth and the heavens
were made from his body.
This is how the world began
and that is how the world will end,
not by fire
but by ice.
The seas will freeze,
and winters will never end.
Geologic evidence shows there have been many ice ages. However, as the above legend shows, only rare tribal memories go back further than the last ice age. Despite the shrill forecasts of dangerous global warming from Al Gore’s Gang, there are many signs that we are past the peak of the Holocene Warming. It is the next cycle of global cooling we have to fear.
For example, in Greenland, “The Lost Squadron” travelling from USA to Britain in 1942 was forced to land on the Greenland Ice sheet. Two B-17 bombers and six P-38 Lightnings ran out of fuel and crash-landed on the Greenland ice sheet.
The crews abandoned the planes. The planes were rediscovered 50 years later using steam boring machines. They were buried under 268 feet of ice. (In 2002 a recovered and restored P-38 flew again.)
Our family ancestors learned about weather.
Mine came from Britain and Denmark. Some went to Dunedin in far south New Zealand. There they started to die out and decided to move again – to sunny Queensland.
Judy’s ancestors started living around Armidale in NSW but also found it too cold and migrated north to Sarina in North Queensland (every winter her sheep wish she had stayed in the warmth of north Queensland.)
Viv Forbes BScApp, FAusImm, FSIA, founder of the Carbon Sense Coalition, has no investments in or contracts with gas, coal or cement companies, but he has a diesel generator in the shed, a petrol-powered quad bike, a diesel tractor, a gas barby and silly dirty, poorly-oriented solar panels on his roof.

It’s because politicians are not the brightest people and happy to take unquestioning instruction from the WEF and the UN IPCC. When will these idiots wake up to the fact that they are being conned? I’m happy to report that my statement is peer reviewed.
Here's a few facts regarding CO2 :-
Of the total amount of CO2 in the atmosphere, we find that the bulk of the 400ppm is put up by Nature and Natural Earth processes.
Natures contribution to the 400ppm is 97%. (or 388ppm). Mankind’s contribution is just 3% or 12ppm. That's All!!
When the scientists speak of the 400ppm they don’t mention that only 12ppm is from human emissions. So for our politicians and media to say we must stop our emissions to save the planet, the question becomes well how can that work if its only 12ppm? If we stopped all our emissions today, it will not make a blind bit of difference as nature will still go on putting up 97% of all carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
To blame mankind’s 12ppm of CO2 for any warming or climate change effect is non- sensical. The Climate Alarmists insult our intelligence in trying to have us believe otherwise.
After hundreds of billions of dollars expenditure, there is still no empirical validated evidence of human-induced global warming and the forecasts have not followed the pre-ordained catastrophist script.
Also, It is worth pointing out that for most of the 500 million years or so of planet Earth' history, CO2 levels have been between 2000 and 7000 parts per million. Our current levels of 400 are literally CO2 starvation.
If CO2 levels drop below 160 ppm, all plants stop growing, and die. Which means ALL LIFE on Earth dies.
