The Great Climate Emergency Hoax

When you hear alarmist nonsense about the extinction of all life on earth, women choosing not to bear children, nonsense about coal-powered power stations killing off the planet etc, you know it's time to look further.

I looked further and what did I find?

First I read a few books, the most enlightening by Dr Tim Ball titled, "The Deliberate Corruption of Climate Science." Dr Ball provides direct evidence by a conspiracy of scientists and others to push the global warming, dangerous C02 agenda for reasons other than protecting our planet.

The United Nations International Panel on Climate Change and at least two universities in the United Kingdom, East Anglia and Reading, are implicit in the corruption.

It's part of a UN Agenda 2030 program that at first look appears to have numerous worthwhile aims and objectives, but look deeper and you can identify a global socialism aim with a One World Government.

It's all aimed at breaking down nationalism and diverting wealth from countries that work to countries that don't due to religious and tribal infighting. It's a cunning way to break down countries, open borders and implement a socialist world government.

Capitalism and democracy are far from perfect, but totalitarian socialism and communism aren't a solution unless we wish to forgo our rights and become slaves under wealthy masters who pull our strings.

Not for me thank you!

What everyone needs to do who support the climate change emergency hoax is research and think. Is this really what you want?

I'll leave you with this article as the first step in your research.

"The “climate emergency”, which we are told threatens the imminent collapse of civilisation and the extinction of humanity, is a dogma being enforced by a culturally totalitarian tyranny. Threatening the living standards of millions, permitting no challenge and wrecking the livelihoods and reputations of any who dares dissent, it has been created by a repudiation of science, humanity and reason: the very markers of modernity and the west. This is the real emergency. --Melanie Phillips, 21 February 2020

Do you smoke?

One of the best decisions I made in life was to not smoke. Well, the truth is, I tried it for a week and couldn't find any reason to continue.

Even in the 60s, it was expensive, dirty, not really tasty, and to me never made sense. I stopped. I never dated women who smoked and found women who didn' want smoking boyfriends.

In the 70s when I had two children I pointed to the early death of my father and the emphysema being suffered by both my mother and mother in law to those kids to encourage them against smoking. My wife and I set an example - neither of us smoked.

We weren't surprised that our children both decided to smoke, but were disappointed. Our daughter gave it away after a couple of years and our son still smokes even though he can't afford it. The price of cigarettes in Australia now is horrendous and smoking is banned in cafes, restaurants and many other places that have been designated smoke-free environments eg, hospitals, airports, schools etc.

Smokers and smoking are unpopular in most circles of Australian society.

Our grandson arrived in 2001.

We tried to inculcate him with a range of values and always discussed the benefits of not smoking. But, as we all know, you can't put an old head on young shoulders and he smokes. I recall a conversation with him when he was about 15, "If you take none of the advice I have given you, at least take the advice not to smoke or take illicit drugs."

It fell on deaf ears. He smokes occasionally and I'm sure puffs a bit of marihuana. I tried to guide him in what I feel was the right direction. but in the end, we are masters of our own destinies and that applies to me in my 70s and him in his teens.

Such is life.

Al Ain's Wonderful Roundabouts

The Clock Roundabout

 I spent three wonderful years living at Al Ain in the United Arab Emirates between 2005 and 2008. Al Ain, also known as the "Garden of the Gulf" is on the border of Oman 100 plus kilometres from Abu Dhabi and Dubai.

Al Ain is a beautiful, clean city known for many things, including its 400 odd roundabouts. Many of the roundabouts have thematic adornments.

See The Clock Roundabout. I think the clock actually works too.

Near the Al Ain Airport is the Camel Roundabout that has a group of several larger than life camels.

It's really nice to see it of an evening when the camels are silhouetted against the setting sun and the shimmer makes it look as though they are moving.

When I lived at Al Ain, there were no street maps and thus, the various roundabouts helped us navigate and to tell others where to go.

On social occasions, we'd take a snapshot of a Google Earth map of Al Ain and draw in where to go to find our house or some other location.

Here's a photo of the Coffee Pot Roundabout showing the traditional coffee pots and accoutrements.

If you ever visit Dubai or Abu Dhabi and have time, I highly recommend a trip to Al Ain. Since I've left, I believe there are now tours that go there.

Whichever way you choose to visit, please go there, it will be an excellent experience. Al Ain is a large, flat city, but on the Oman border lie the Jebel Hafit mountains at the bottom of which is the Green Mubazurrah, a spring water site that has swimming pools and large recreation areas.
