ScoMo's prayers for rain have been answered

[Juliar]

ScoMo prays for rain and the Good Lord makes it pour. Wonder how GetUp! will try to make FAKE NEWS out of this ?

But it is not going to help the Lunatic Extremist Greenies who caused the bushfires.


Thank you Lord you have saved my bacon!!!!



Firefighters rejoice as heavy rain set to dampen fire grounds

Exhausted firefighters in New South Wales and Victoria are gleeful at the prospect of thunderstorms and heavy rains forecast to hit south-eastern Australia in coming days.

Rain is expected across much of NSW from Tuesday including fire grounds in the Snowy Mountains, southwest of Sydney and South Coast regions.

The wet weather is expected extend down into Victoria over the coming days.

NSW Rural Fire Service commissioner Shane Fitzsimmons said forecast of rain is the best news firefighters have had for many months.

“From a fire point of view, this is the best week we’ve seen for many, many months in terms of easing some of the conditions,” Mr Fitzsimmons told the Channel Nine on Tuesday.

“We are expecting right across the state – particularly the Great Dividing Range, which happens to coincide where all this fire activity has been for the past few months – widespread 30 to 80 millimetres.”

If this BOM_NSW rainfall forecast comes to fruition then this will be all of our Christmas, birthday, engagement, anniversary, wedding and graduation presents rolled into one. Fingers crossed. NSWRFS

Some areas with thunderstorms could receive up to 100mm, Mr Fitzsimmons added.

“If it’s falling on fire grounds that will certainly have a positive effect right across the fire fighting effort.”

The downside is there could be localised flash-flooding, significant erosion and problematic run-off into water catchments.

Mr Fitzsimmons said to protect drinking supplies “filtration and other equipment is being deployed into the water systems”.

Dampening the flames
Sarah Scully, extreme weather forecaster at the Bureau of Meteorology (BOM), said there was potential for fires that were beneath a thunderstorm to be contained by the rainfall.

“The best-case scenario, with the ongoing showers and storms from Wednesday onwards, is that they can really impact and help to extinguish some of the fires,” she told the ABC.

Ms Scully said the increased rain could also make it harder for new blazes to form, and the threat of lightning-induces fires would be lessened..

“At least with this heavy rainfall the ground will be more moist and it’ll be harder to ignite,” she said.

The NSW fire service is working closely with the SES, NSW Police and the Bureau of Meteorology to track where the heaviest falls were likely to be.

So far this bushfire season some 2176 homes have been destroyed across NSW. Of that number, 1260 have been lost in the past fortnight.

“This figure is likely to increase as (assessment) teams continue to work through fire-affected areas,” the RFS tweeted on Tuesday.

There are still more than 100 fires burning across NSW.

The BOM says it’s difficult to predict exactly how much rain will fall this week because the downpours will be inconsistent.

Bega on the South Coast is expected to receive between 3mm and 10mm on Thursday when most rain is predicted to fall.

However, in Cooma, just 100 kilometres inland, greater falls of between 8mm and 25mm are forecast.

Some have even got ScoMo hung drawn and quartered already but cunning ScoMo is several steps ahead of them. He is taking control of the bush fire recovery effort while Anal stands helplessly by muttering futile nothings. NewsPoll will quickly restore ScoMo to his rightful place as Anal follows blunder after stuffup.

Outrage is so yesterday but typical of GetUp and the filthy Greens.

Most voters won't support Labor, Greens or GetUp! while there is so much hate associated with them. Especially the obnoxious Greenies after they burnt Australia to the ground!!!

And a bit of tacky sag grapes from daggy old Tony Windsor (Who??).




Why Scott Morrison WILL survive the bushfire crisis despite public outrage - thanks to rule changes he put in place to protect his own job
By STEPHEN JOHNSON FOR DAILY MAIL AUSTRALIA PUBLISHED: 15:19 AEDT, 3 January 2020 | UPDATED: 21:04 AEDT, 3 January 2020

Scott Morrison has faced a hostile reception at Cobargo on the NSW South Coast
A state Liberal MP Andrew Constance said PM from his own party 'deserved' it
Federal Education Minister Dan Tehan said 'emotions run high during fires'
Liberals changed rules in late 2018 so two-thirds MPs needed to change leader

Scott Morrison's leadership is safe despite public anger over his handling of the bushfire crisis and a likely dip in voter support.

The extent of anger was illustrated when the Prime Minister visited the fire-stricken town of Cobargo on the New South Wales South Coast, where residents on Thursday refused handshakes and delivered volleys of abuse.

Even his fellow Liberal and local state MP Andrew Constance, a minister, said voters in his Bega electorate had given the PM 'the welcome he probably deserved'.

Despite that, Mr Morrison is virtually impregnable as the party's leader through to the 2022 election thanks to new Liberal Party rules governing leadership challenges.

They require a two-thirds majority vote of MPs to change the leadership whereas a simple majority was all that was needed when Tony Abbott and Malcolm Turnbull were deposed.

And there seemed to be no appetite within the party to ditch Mr Morrison.

His cabinet colleague, Education Minister Dan Tehan, defended the Prime Minister's treatment of the bushfire crisis.


Scott Morrison's leadership is safe despite public anger directed at him as he visited a town where a bushfire burnt down buildings on the main street. The Prime Minister is so unpopular angry residents at Cobargo (pictured) on the New South Wales South Coast either refused to shake his hand or rudely told him to leave

Will the Liberal Party replace Scott Morrison as leader before the next election?

'Emotions run high during fires and other natural disasters,' he told Daily Mail Australia on Friday.

'I've seen it myself here, in my own electorate - we've had floods and fires.

'The Prime Minister is doing an outstanding job leading the nation, an outstanding job - will continue to do so.'

The new party room rules, introduced in December 2018, copied a similar reform by the Australian Labor Party, as both parties sought to end a period of rapid turnover of Prime Ministers sparked by factional infighting and nervous MPs reacting to bad polls.

Philip Ruddock, a former federal cabinet minister who is now the Liberal Party's NSW president, said the rule changes were required.

'Mature judgements are formed over time and the changes that you are speaking of, in fact, made potential change more difficult,' he told Daily Mail Australia.


A state Liberal MP and minister, Andrew Constance, said voters in his Bega electorate had given the PM 'the welcome he probably deserved' (pictured is an angry Cobargo resident)

During Mr Ruddock's final term in Parliament, the Liberal Party in 2015 removed a first-term prime minister Tony Abbott.

His successor Malcolm Turnbull faced two leadership challenges from Peter Dutton in August 2018.

This led to Mr Morrison becoming the fifth PM in a decade, sparking his push to change the party rules.

'What you have seen at times are sometimes judgments that are formed precipitously and these changes were designed to ensure any judgments that are formed are formed over time,' Mr Ruddock said.

Despite the higher bar being set for a leadership change, former federal independent MP Tony Windsor predicted Mr Morrison would still be rolled by his party before the next election.


Under Mr Morrison's watch as Prime Minister, the Liberal Party's rules were changed in December 2018 so it would take two-thirds of MPs rather than a bare majority to change leader (pictured is Scott Morrison touring a wildflower farm at Sarsfield in eastern Victoria)

'They'll probably get rid of him some time and it will be on the back of climate change,' he told Daily Mail Australia.

'That incident at Cobargo probably marked the demise of his prime ministership - not just that incident in itself.

'Morrison can't reinvent himself: he's a dead man walking.'

Mr Windsor, the former member for New England in northern NSW, said the Prime Minister 'misread the whole issue of the bushfires, he's built himself a hole'.

'His moral authority is gone now,' he said.

ScoMo is copping it from all quarters - kick him while he is down!!!

But won't these trolls squirm when ScoMo is proven correct in that it is the Indian Dipole ?



Can ScoMo now claim he is the VICTIM like the Greenies do ?

[Juliar]

Oh won't those Climate Warriors squirm as the TRUTH comes out that Australia's weather is being caused by the Indian Dipole as ScoMo has already said.



Indian Ocean Dipole decays, to hasten monsoon over fire-ravaged Australia

Signals that bushfire-ravaged country will soon get some desperately needed relief
The Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) has returned to neutral in what is a headline event, signalling the potential arrival of Australia’s delayed annual monsoon and some desperately awaited relief for the bush fire-ravaged country.

The Australian Bureau of Meteorology announced mid-morning today (Tuesday) that an aggressive positive phase of the IOD may have collapsed and that the Indian Ocean returned to neutral after one of the strongest positive IOD events to impact Australia in recent history.

The IOD is expected to remain neutral in the coming months, meaning that it will have little influence on the Australian and global climate. Closer home, the decay of the IOD event should help taper off the easterly flows across the South Indian peninsula and associated hit-or-miss thunderstorms across the geography.

Bushfire weather
However, the IOD’s legacy of widespread warm and dry conditions (ascending air, lower pressure, cloud and rain over the West Indian Ocean matched only by descending air, higher pressure, hot and dry air, nil clouds/rain to the East, the near Australian coast) during the second half of 2019 primed the Australian landscape for bushfire weather and heat waves this summer.

In the Pacific Ocean, although indicators suggest neutral (neither El Nino or La Nina) conditions, the tropical ocean near and to the West of the Date Line remains warmer than average, potentially drawing some moisture away from Australia. Most climate models indicate the Equatorial Pacific will remain neutral until at least March-May (end of the Southern Hemisphere autumn), meaning it will have limited influence on Australian and global climate. When the IOD and Pacific conditions are neutral, Australia’s climate can be impacted by more local or short-term climate drivers.

Meanwhile tropical cyclone Blake, which formed off the Kimberley coast of West Australia yesterday (Monday), presented a striking contrast to the raging bush fires to the South-East of the vast island-continent. Blake is the first tropical cyclone to form in the Australian region for the 2019-20 tropical cyclone season. Blake is not forecast to intensify beyond category 1 strength and is expected to make landfall along the northern West Australia coast during the course of the day today.

A second tropical system currently over the Arafura Sea, north of the Northern Australian Territory, is forecast to develop to tropical cyclone intensity in the coming days, potentially making landfall on the North Coast. Unfortunately, both the cyclones have chosen to form on the wrong side of the fire-stricken country.

Monsoon onset
In another good augury, the Australian Bureau of Meteorology observed that tropical cyclone Blake and the fresh low-pressure area to the North have both developed in a monsoon trough located off the North-West coast of Australia. Depending on the movement and development of these tropical systems, the monsoon trough may be dragged far enough South that the monsoon onset at Darwin takes place in the coming week.

The monsoon onset, which typically occurs over Darwin during the last week of the year, has been delayed in 2019-20 likely due to the influence of a positive Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD). The IOD has now returned to neutral values, meaning it's no longer actively reducing the chance of monsoon onset.

With the decay of the positive IOD, the Bureau's climate outlook no longer has its drying influences as a factor. Outlooks currently indicate an increased chance of average to above-average rainfall across parts of North Australia in the coming weeks and months. More broadly, if an active monsoon develops over North Australia, it increases the chance of rainfall, not only across northern Australia, but for regions further South. This is because the influx of moisture associated with the monsoon can be transported by weather systems from North to South and potentially generate periods of more intense rainfall.


The decay of the IOD may also open the doors for a helpful Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO) wave to settle over the Australian latitudes and track eastwards during the next fortnight. The MJO wave travels periodically from the West to the East over the Indian Ocean and is a harbinger of clouds, wet weather, heavy rain and even storms. At this time of the year, an MJO pulse over Australian longitudes is typically associated with the development of monsoonal westerly winds and above-average cloudiness and rainfall for much of North Australia and parts of the Maritime Continent, to Australia's North. The focus of enhanced weather over Australia is typically greatest for the North-West of the continent in this scenario, but heavy rainfall for Cape York Peninsula is also possible.

The Climate Warriors look really sick and stupid as the TRUTH about Australia's bush fires and drought comes out that it is simply a natural cyclical occurrence. AND, apart from the Indian Dipole, there is ALSO the negative Southern Annular Mode (SAM) to further sink the Climate Loonies.

What a let down for the silly hysterical screeching lying Climate Warriors when it all transpires to be nothing more than a normal cyclical natural event!!!




Positive Indian Ocean Dipole fuels bushfires devastating Australia and deadly flooding in Africa

RELATED STORY: Spring breaks yet another record for Australia

A climatic phenomenon of near-record intensity has contributed to two extremes on opposite sides of the Indian Ocean — torrential rain in East Africa and exceptionally dry conditions fuelling bushfires in Australia.

Key points:
A positive Indian Ocean Dipole is triggered by a change in ocean temperatures
It ends with the start of the monsoon season, but this has been delayed
Like an El Nino/La Nina in the Pacific, it can drastically impact weather patterns

The bushfire season began much earlier than usual in eastern Australia and has been one of the most devastating on record, based on the area burnt.

Australia's most populous city of Sydney has been choking under a blanket of thick smoke funnelling in from the fire zones, its air quality exceeding hazardous levels on several occasions.

But the parched and hazy landscape in Australia is in stark contrast to the rain-drenched terrain of east Africa, where severe floods, mudslides and landslides have killed nearly 300 people.

The common link is a strong positive Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD), the counterpart to the El Nino weather system that develops in the Pacific Ocean.

The negative effect of a positive IOD
The IOD measures differences in sea surface temperatures between the western and eastern parts of the Indian Ocean.


VIDEO: Understanding the Indian Ocean Dipole https://youtu.be/J6hOVatamYs

A positive IOD occurs when waters near the Horn of Africa are warmer than average leading to enhanced rainfall there, while cooler waters develop off Indonesia resulting in less rainfall and high temperatures in Australia.

The Bureau of Meteorology's head of long-range forecasting, Andrew Watkins, said the IOD event peaked in mid-October when the waters around east Africa were about 2 degrees Celsius warmer than those near Australia.

"It's the strongest we've had since 1997 and it's comparable to only three events that we've seen in the past — in 1997, 1994 and 1961," he said.

Dr Watkins said it played a key role in Australia recording its driest spring on record and the fifth-warmest.

Positive a negative for drought-hit areas

The positive IOD has exacerbated the drought over central and southern Australia.

"In Australia it has contributed to the very dry and warm conditions we've seen over winter and spring … and that has unfortunately set us up for a bad fire season in parts of eastern Australia," he said.

Dr Watkins said it had also played a role in Perth posting its hottest ever start to summer, and with maximum temperatures expected to hover around 40C in the city until Sunday, it is likely other records will also tumble.

"It does appear to have some impact on southern parts of WA, so you do tend to see it being a bit drier and warmer during IOD events … December so far has been very hot."

Meanwhile, rainfall across the greater Horn of Africa was up to 300 per cent above average from October to mid-November, according to the Famine Early Warning Systems Network.

"The comparable flooding that we've seen in the past in parts of eastern Africa was in 1997 during the positive IOD event," Dr Watkins said.

"It is their wet season, so they do expect to have more rain than normal … but this year has really taken the cake.

"They've also had quite a number of tropical cyclones. You don't normally see that many tropical cyclones in the north-west of the Indian Ocean, typically you might only get one in a season, but we've seen about five in that area — although not all of them have affected eastern Africa."

When will it end?
IOD values have gradually weakened since their peak of 2.1C in mid-October and are down to 0.9C, but that is still well above the positive IOD threshold value of 0.4C.

"Normally a positive Indian Ocean Dipole would die off at the end of November or start of December as the monsoon moves into the southern hemisphere," Dr Watkins said.

"But the monsoon is really taking its time, it's pretty sluggish moving into the southern hemisphere and hence we're waiting to see it move a little further before we become more confident of when the IOD may end.

"But it could be the end of December or even early January before it goes away, so possibly a month later than normal."

Forecasters are also closely monitoring another climate driver, the negative Southern Annular Mode (SAM).


VIDEO: YouTube: Understanding the Southern Annular Mode https://youtu.be/KrhWsXCB3u8

"That basically refers to our weather patterns being further north than normal, and it means that there have been lots of westerly winds blowing the hot and dry air from the interior across New South Wales and southern Queensland," Dr Watkins said.

"So we've had the drying from the IOD and then we've had the hot and dry winds from the SAM bringing about the terrible conditions we've seen over eastern Australia."

BOM's latest climate outlook suggests the negative SAM may influence the first half of January before returning to neutral levels.


VIDEO: BOM outlook for summer 2019 https://youtu.be/Qk4qFQnNL_Q

It is predicted that a drier-than-average January to March is likely for eastern Australia, but that the period will be wetter for parts of Western Australia.

But the drier-than-usual pattern in the east is likely to ease as we progress into summer, when the positive IOD and negative SAM patterns break down.

A true damning exposure of the Greeny Climate Insanity gripping the weak gullible minds of many.

The Lunatic Extremist Greenies WANTED the bush fires to burn Australia to the ground because their warped minds thought this would convince everyone they were right all the time and would convince people that their UN One World Socialist "Govt" in a Sustainable World was the ONLY ANSWER to SAVE THE WORLD!!!!. Total bulldust of course.




Climate 'religion' is fueling Australia's wildfires
BY RUPERT DARWALL, OPINION CONTRIBUTOR — 01/17/20 02:00 PM EST 1,285


Climate 'religion' is fueling Australia's wildfires © Getty Images

Al Gore blames the climate crisis; Barack Obama says Australia’s bushfires are the very real, very urgent consequences of climate change. Hillary Clinton declares we are in a climate emergency.

More than three months ago there were warnings of an unusually strong Indian Ocean Dipole, with warm water off Africa contributing to rain there and cold water off Western Australia leading to severe drought there. Strong winds and updrafts created conditions for hundreds of lightning strikes. Together with the build-up of fuel – five years ago, bushfire expert David Packham warned that forest fuel levels had climbed to their most dangerous in thousands of years – this led to Australia experiencing its worst fires in 100 years. The hellish conditions saw a fire tornado flip a fire truck, killing a volunteer firefighter.

Before Australia, California, with climate and vegetation similar to much of Australia, was ravaged by wildfires for three years. Those, too, were blamed on climate change. Yet experts at last week’s National Council for Science and the Environment conference downplayed the role of climate change. According to Scott Stephens, professor of fire science at the University of California, Berkeley, 20 to 25 percent of the wildfire damage resulted from climate change while “75 percent is the way we manage lands and develop our landscape.”


So far, this year’s strong Indian Ocean Dipole has not been blamed on climate change and carbon dioxide emissions. In the nature of things, that might well change. Great kudos will redound to any climate scientist who can hypothesize a causal connection between the two. But whether the principal factor behind the severity of wildfires is manmade climate change or the natural variations of ocean currents, those most vocal in their concern about climate change believe climate change is to blame.

The 2008 Garnaut Report on Climate Change, commissioned by the Australian states and the opposition Labor party, cited a 2007 study suggesting that fire seasons would start earlier, end slightly later and generally be more intense. “This effect increases over time, but should be directly observable by 2020,” economist Ross Garnaut wrote.

If environmentalism, the dominant ideology of our age, were based on rationality, it would involve the development and deployment of a rational calculus for decisionmakers to maximize human welfare and environmental benefits. It would help answer the question of what action could reduce the severity of fires before they break out, to protect people and ecosystems. California fires have killed more than 100 people and destroyed thousands of homes. Like California, fires are part of Australia’s ecosystem and its fauna have developed adaptive strategies. According to Sam Banks, a conservation biologist at Charles Darwin University in Australia, as climate change lengthens fire seasons and brings more frequent, intense fires, it could become increasingly difficult for ecosystems to bounce back. These changes, he says, “are potentially quite a major risk to our biodiversity.”

Far from campaigning for aggressive land-management policies to minimize the buildup of fuel through controlled burns, or to insist on firebreaks and other measures to contain fire’s spread, some environmental organizations campaign against them. Writing about the California fires, Myron Ebell and Patrick Michaels of the Competitive Enterprise Institute criticized the culture of vegetation worship that “militates against purposefully burning things down. In California, these ‘prescribed’ fires are now largely prohibited (because burning releases dreaded carbon dioxide), ensuring that disaster is always just around the corner.” So Greens would prefer that carbon remain on the ground as fuel for larger, deadlier conflagrations that release bigger plumes of carbon dioxide?

In Australia, Packham notes that forest fuel levels have worsened over 30 years because of “misguided green ideology” and condemned the left-leaning state of Victoria for its “failed fire management policy,” which, he says, represents an increasing threat to human life, water supplies, property and the forest environment.

It’s clear, then, that there is no rational basis to the ideology of environmentalism.

It predicts catastrophes, then campaigns against practical, effective measures that would reduce their destructiveness.

Why? As Josef Joffe says in a Commentary article on the religion of climatism, environmentalism is more fruitfully analyzed as a religious phenomenon. “Like any religion worthy of its name,” Joffe writes, “it comes with its own catechism (what to believe) and eschatology (how the world will end).”

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) which, purportedly, is concerned only with hard, objective science, turns out to be a conduit of climatism, Joffe says, and the Summary for Policy Makers of its 1.5 Degree Special Report “is preceded by a motto taken from … author Antoine de St. Exupéry that gives the game away: The report is about salvation but written in the language of science. The quote reads: ‘As for the future, the task is not to foresee, but to enable it.’”

The non-rational, religious nature of environmentalism was made explicit by Maurice Strong. Dubbed the United Nations’ ultimate mandarin, and implicated in the Iraqi oil-for-food bribery scandal, Strong was the master strategist behind the success of the U.N. climate process in co-opting the world’s political and business leaders.

His 2000 autobiography “Where on Earth are We Going?” begins with a report to planet Earth’s shareholders dated January 2031.

After the most devastating decade in human experience – Strong is describing the 2020s – a mystic figure named Tadi emerges to synthesize all the main world religions into one. “In this Time of Troubles God must call all to a new and transcendent unity,” Tadi urges. Tadi teaches that human and environmental cataclysms need never have happened but are nature’s revenge, the direct results of uncaring arrogance, self-indulgence, greed and neglect. “What we have suffered is our own fault,” Strong writes of Tadi’s teachings. Yet there is a glimmer of hope: Certain negative trends have been reversed “as a result not of good sense but of cataclysm.”

What’s on display here is the religious triptych of Sin/Punishment/Redemption so central to most religions. It’s also a feature of Thomas Malthus’s population principle, brilliantly summarized by 19th century French economist Frédéric Bastiat: “If you multiply inconsiderately, you cannot avoid the chastisement which awaits you in some form or other, and always in a hideous form – famine, war, pestilence etc.”

Cataclysm thus forms an essential part of the climate catechism. And proactive forest management to reduce the spread and severity of wildfires violates the climate catechism: Sin is left unpunished and the need for atonement, in the form of carbon fasting and purging, is deferred, if not obviated altogether. This explains why many “Greens” are, in principle, hostile to technology as a solution to climate change, whether it be nuclear power or geoengineering to cool the atmosphere.

California and Australia are paying a high price for this irrational, nihilistic schemata in the form of lives lost, property burned and ecosystems damaged. The paradox of climate religion is that green ideology is the enemy of rationality in taking steps to protect against the consequences of climate change, whether natural or manmade. The sooner it suffers its own climate extinction, the better and safer the planet will be.

But now to expose how evil the Lunatic Extremist Greenies that control the Labor Party really are.


Evil Greenies squeal with delight as they burn Australia to the ground



Are climate change deniers trying to use misinformation to say the cause of the Australian fires was arson?
Paul Noel, former Research Scientist 6 Level 2 UAH Huntsville Al. (2009-2014) Updated Sun · Upvoted by Jan Lindström, Environmental Science background. Climate interest since the 80´s. Physicist.

It isn’t misinformation. Over 75% of the fires were caused by Arson. Worse yet for the greens, the fuel on the ground was there because the greens got legislation passed in Canberra the stopped controlled burns, firebreaks and backfires. This kept the fuel in place, caused it to accumulate for years and then prevented any rational firefighting measures.

You really need to understand that this disaster was not only caused by arson as pointed out, it was also set up for the burn by the Leftists and Greens and then it was prevented from containment by the Leftists and Greens. This is a first class crime by the Climate Change people. It is first degree murder in the name of Climate Change. This is the only way it can be described.

The hands of the Climate Change agenda and their fingerprints are all over the death of nearly 20 people. Many of us have been warning this was building up for months and years. I myself warned about this in July 2019. I knew it was coming. I tried to call out the disaster before the first spark of a fire started. Hundreds of Billions of Dollars of damages were going to happen and I called it out. I am not the only person who called it out.

Late Edit: I have now seen some Australians were calling this out more than 10 years before. These were fire control professionals in the management of bushfires. I don’t want anyone thinking my analysis was strange, unusual or particularly prescient. I was a latecomer to warning about this situation. They were warning that it had been building up for a decade at that time.

I cannot stress enough how plain clear and well known the mismanagement was and that is lays directly on the head of the leftists and greens. They caused this trouble because of the triumph of their belief over reality in causing things. This was murder most foul and worse yet a fair number of the arsonists are known to be prominent Greens trying to push their agenda.

People of the earth must understand there is nothing scientific, green or just about the social justice and leftists and greens. These are anarchists trying to destroy your freedom prosperity, health and safety. Tolerate them at your peril! A warning from me for the future.
