Interesting. Also on the issue concerning Labour's religious zeal against nuclear, I forgot to mention the key founding inspiration for the international Climate Accords of the 1990's was the global fear and fallout, no pun intended, of the 1986 Chernobyl disaster. So a key tennant of this political/religious belief system will always be anti-nuclear regardless of any modern advancement or safety in the field of nuclear reactors. It's their core founding principle that nuclear is the foremost evil - followed of course then by all the other forms of energy, excluding "renewables" which ironically are anything but renewable, but that is the end result of blind faith in today's modern progressive fantasyland.You raise some interesting ideas.
In Australia we produce 1% of the so called global warming gasses. Which I'd imagine is well within the plus/minus accuracy limits.
Labor here is fucking our power systems as fast as they can. We have huge reserves of gas and coal and probably oil. We export enormous amounts of high quality coal and gas but can't use it here or can only use small amounts for industry. In Victoria the state government recently banned all new houses from using gas heating and cooking.
So we can export it in oil burning ships to be burnt elsewhere but can't burn it here. I am waiting with baited breath for the first of the big black outs. I've got about 3.5 kw of generator power so will be able to power lights, fans and fridges so I'll be ok.
The trans stuff, well, that's a progressive left fantasy fueled by mysoginistic gays who want to teach women who's boss. Whilst we ooh and ah about a man and his 'husband' having a baby and how normal and 'proud' it all is, no one thinks about the surrogate, often in a third world or eastern European setting who's the brood mare for this little fantasy. See Elton John and his 'husband' for an example.
I've read that the world as a whole is in population decline so it's not just the west.
Carbon tax was a big election issue here in Aus a few years ago. Called 'Labors big new tax on everything' they lost over it.
10 years later and the Labor party is in its second 3 year term having won on a landslide so God help us. Mind you there is push back on this global warming nonsense and the trans stuff but we are still behind the UK in this. Labor here has a religious thing about never having nuclear. God knows why as if you actually belive in Global Warming then this is the only way to ensure quality net zero power.
