Climate Change thinks Tony Abbott is crap!

Climate Change thinks Tony Abbott is crap!

With the chorus of derision rising, about this (and I use the term very loosely) government, and its $4 million handout to the Climate “Contrarian” Borg for his UWA  “NO  think” tank, and the lies about the funding process coming to light, is it any wonder that we’ve been labelled by the UN climate council as, effectively “Public Enemy No 1”, on Climate Change   😯

For starters, the LNP’ers said that they were approached by the chancellor of the UWA, and the $4 mill was only part of the funding, that was going to be added to by the university.   😕

Then the chancellor was interviewed, and said that the government approached them about the proposal, and the only things the university was providing was space and internet access   😯

We then saw Pyne defending the decision… WTF   ❓

There’s also Greg “Climate Change…What Climate Change” Hunt, claiming a “stunning success” for giving away $660 million to polluters, which firstly has, in reality, put a price on carbon (which could rightly be seen as “just another broken promise”), and more importantly in this instance, is blatantly misleading, as the only “Stunning Success” he can claim is in giving away around 1/3 of the total budget for carbon abatement, with no guarantee of reducing anything, except… the budget for carbon abatement!   😯

Part of the reason for my scepticism, is because from what I’ve heard, the majority of this money will be going into trees, the growth of which takes many years, and is, in itself, subject to the ravages of Climate Change, and the resultant floods, fires and droughts.   🙄

The other part of the reason for my scepticism is this is Abbott’s “Direct action” plan… 😯

Now I have to say that, as it turns out, after much thought, I’ve come to the conclusion that Abbott’s idea of a “Green Army” is not such a bad idea   😯   as we have just seen two major weather events in as many weeks, both in NSW, then SE QLD, and now again in NSW, and as a result, the regular SES and local authorities are over stretched, and Abbott’s “Green Army”  would be a welcome addition to help with the clean up.   😉

The problem being that so far, that other aspect of  Abbott’s “Direct in-action” plan, the aforementioned “Green Army” is nowhere to be seen, unlike the effects of Climate Change, which are everywhere to be seen!   😯

So I’d like to say that I wait with bated breath for the UN Climate Conference in Paris in November – December this year…  But in reality, with Greg Hunt representing us, and trying to sell the LNP’ers climate credentials, rather than baited breath, it’s more about cringing in embarrassment as our position as climate change pariah is cast in bronze and displayed on the world stage for all to see.   😳

On the positive side, we have the next instalment of  “As the budget fails”  coming up in a bit over a week, and I live in hope that the LNP party machine comes to the conclusion that their best bet will be to call a DD, in which case we may be rid of idiot boy and his mendacious mob of miscreants, before they make us an even bigger laughingstock and climate change pariah than we already are   😡   , and before the economy finally goes, Lemming like over the fiscal cliff of Abbott and Hockey’s budget disasters, dragging our AAA rating with it.   😦

And far be it from me to speak on behalf of something as dangerous and far reaching as Climate Change, but on this I feel confident in saying that;

Climate Change thinks Tony Abbott is CRAP!
