MEDIA RELEASE 27 October 2020
BUSHFIRES ROYAL COMMISSION DOESN’T HAVE THE ANSWERS
Sorry, I could not think of a nice way of putting it, and trust me, the titles I experimented with first were worse. Should I even care in this age of Netflix’s “Cuties”? Just imagine what “Uglies” will be like! Anyway, climate queen Greta the Great is backing Biden, even though he is hardly what she wants on climate change, needing an AOC type of person. Maybe she thinks that Queen Karma will be taken over by the radical Greens. But, I doubt it, more likely that the fanatic globalist will run rampage on their own agenda, squashing everybody like a rogue elephant.

“Greta Thunberg, the 17-year-old Swedish climate change activist, has endorsed Joe Biden’s bid for the White House, breaking with her long-standing rule of avoiding party politics. In a tweet Saturday, Thunberg said that the November 3 election is “above and beyond all that,” and is urging people to “get organized” and vote for Biden, even though she acknowledged that many of her followers backed other candidates. “I never engage in party politics,” she wrote. “But the upcoming US elections is above and beyond all that. From a climate perspective it’s very far from enough and many of you of course supported other candidates. But, I mean…you know…damn! Just get organized and get everyone to vote #Biden.” Greta Thunberg made no mention of Joe Biden’s flip-flopping environmental positions. In the past, Biden has stated that he would ban fracking, or hydraulic fracturing, which is the process of releasing oil and gas by pumping water and other elements into the ground. But more recently, the 77-year-old presidential candidate has denied ever saying that. “I never told environmentalists that I’m going to ban fracking,” Biden said in a recent interview with This Week in Pennsylvania, a local news show. “What I did say was I would make sure that any new fracking taking place – make sure the water supply and methane was not leaking. They’re the two things. That’s it. I will not ban fracking.” Biden has also distanced himself from the Green New Deal, despite his campaign website calling it a “crucial framework” in combating the “climate crisis.” During last week’s presidential debate, Biden said, “the Green New Deal is not my plan” and “No, I don’t support the Green New Deal.”
Friends, this pains me as a loyal monarchist and servant of Her Majesty the Queen. I have secret worries about the future of the monarchy after our glorious Queen dies. Forgive me, but the time has come to face facts. Here is why:
https://www.naturalnews.com/2020-10-05-prince-charles-calls-for-military-response-to-address-climate-change.html
“Prince Charles recently spoke at the United Nations Summit on Biodiversity and urged all human beings to start taking climate change seriously. Prince Charles called for a “military-style campaign” to address “this most grave and urgent challenge.” The United Nations does have its own army, consisting of “peacekeeping soldiers” from all the member countries. Will the military response to climate change include climate lock downs, with UN troops patrolling the streets? What does a military response to climate change look like? Will populations around the world be told to go “all in” to combat climate change, that we can defeat global warming “together” as long as we relinquish our individual liberties, surrender our property rights and do as we are told? The millions of people who do not submit to the climate change oligarchy and its cult-like following could be deemed “enemies of the state” – locked down, isolated, fined and forced to obey the government in much the same way that healthy people are being locked down, isolated, fined and arrested if they do not comply with the medical edicts currently being wrought upon them. After all, combating climate change by restricting human freedom is for “our safety” – the same tactic that was used to control people during the covid-19 crisis.
Zero Hedge has raised the issue of an EMP event, frying the US grid, occurring just before the US election. The videos below put this in context since this existential threat has always been there. It is possible that a country like China may decide to pull the plug on the weak West. In any case, we all should be ready, because Australia is even more vulnerable.

“The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) released a new report warning about a "potential" electromagnetic pulse (EMP) attack against the U.S. DHS's warning published Thur. (Sept. 2), or about 60 days until the U.S. presidential election on Nov. 3, indicates there are "evolving threats against the American homeland, most recently highlighting efforts to combat an Electromagnetic Pulse attack which could disrupt the electrical grid and potentially damage electronics." The department released an EMP status report via the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) that said the "key actions to address known EMP-related vulnerabilities to critical infrastructure." CISA said an EMP attack could "disrupt, degrade, and damage technology" embedded in critical infrastructure systems. Widespread blackouts could be seen if an EMP was to damage the nation's electrical grid, resulting in additional flare-ups of socio-economic turmoil. "EMP attacks are part of the emerging threats against our nation and demand a response," said Senior Official Performing the Duties of the Deputy Secretary Ken Cuccinelli. "That is why DHS is taking these contingencies very seriously, working diligently to mitigate our risks and equipping our state and local partners with the resources they need to do the same. We've made significant progress and look forward to work ahead," Cuccinelli said. CISA Director Chris Krebs said top priorities of the agency is to mitigate threats associated with EMPs:
Know your enemy; that is an old maxim going back into the distant past. Thus, it is good for Christian readers to have an understanding of their opponents, atheistic materialism, which sees the world as evolved, and ultimately destroyed, by purely naturalistic processes, with no God, no heaven and no hell, just John Lennon on maths.

“In the unimaginably far future, cold stellar remnants known as black dwarfs will begin to explode in a spectacular series of supernovae, providing the final fireworks of all time. That’s the conclusion of a new study, which posits that the universe will experience one last hurrah before everything goes dark forever. Astronomers have long contemplated the ultimate end of the cosmos. The known laws of physics suggest that by about 10100 (the No. 1 followed by 100 zeros) years from now, star birth will cease, galaxies will go dark, and even black holes will evaporate through a process known as Hawking radiation, leaving little more than simple subatomic particles and energy. The expansion of space will cool that energy nearly to 0 kelvin, or absolute zero, signaling the heat death of the universe and total entropy. But while teaching an astrophysics class this spring, theoretical physicist Matt Caplan of Illinois State University realized the fate of one last group of entities had never been accounted for. After exhausting their thermonuclear fuel, low mass stars like the Sun don’t pop off in dramatic supernovae; rather, they slowly shed their outer layers and leave behind a scorching Earth-size core known as a white dwarf. “They are essentially pans that have been taken off the stove,” Caplan says. “They’re going to cool and cool and cool, basically forever.”

California leads the way to electricity blackouts, closely followed by South Australia. They both created this problem by taxing, banning, delaying or demolishing reliable coal, nuclear, gas or hydro generators while subsidising and promoting unreliable electricity from the sickly green twins - solar and wind. All supposed to solve a global warming crisis that exists only in academic computer models. Energy policy should be driven by proven reliability, efficiency and cost, not by green politics. Wind and solar will always be prone to blackouts for three reasons.
It is getting hard to pick, but here is my choice of politically correct Leftist absurdity of the week.

“The Grampa Simpson “old man yells at cloud” meme is funny, to be sure. But leave it to black folks to go it one better by screaming at a lake. Last month, “Afro-Latinx” singer-actress Naya Rivera drowned while swimming in Lake Piru in Ventura County, Calif. Rivera had grown up in the area; the lake was not unfamiliar to her. It was an accident, and nothing more. Still, a black life was “taken,” so a petition was created to “cancel” Lake Piru.
“Lake Piru needs to go down. Now and forever. It’s taken too many lives,” brayed signatory Erin Jordan. “Naya Rivera and others deserve f**king justice. Nobody deserves to f**king drown or possibly be dead bc of this river,” bellowed Linnell Lilliston. Other comments: “Shut this sh*t down please.” “The lake shouldn’t have the right to be open anymore.” “Shut this place down!!!” “This lake is very dangerous and a threat to people. Not a single death more.” “This place should be drained.” “Use it for drinking water or drain it completely.” “Shut down Lake Piru for good.” Many of the 4,400 signatories simply chimed in with “justice NOW!” or “where’s the justice?” or “we need justice!” How one can extract “justice” from a lake is unclear. What is clear is that the notion of yelling at clouds seemed ludicrous until a bunch of low-IQ lunatics began doing it for real. A step up from demanding justice from a lake is demanding it from a tree. I mean, at least trees are living organisms. Robert Fuller was a crazy-ass black man in Palmdale, Calif. (well, to be fair, all of him was crazy, not just his ass). Beset by mental illness, the poor bastard hanged himself from a tree outside the Palmdale City Hall on June 10. Fuller had a history of auditory hallucinations, institutionalization, psychotic outbursts, and suicide attempts. He used his EBT card to buy the rope he employed in the hanging (from a Dollar Tree, noch).
The kiddies wagging school to protest the climate apocalypse, or whatever, and the Extinction Rebellion dudes, all go on about renewable energy saving the say; no more smelly hydrocarbons. Well, let us look at a case study of this so-called Greenie power:
https://www.naturalnews.com/2020-08-19-blackouts-demonstrate-green-power-grid-failure.html
“Over a million California residents suffered power blackouts last Friday evening. High temperatures caused consumer demand to exceed the available power, which forced California utility companies to implement rotating outages to reduce demand. The rolling blackouts highlight the poor state of California’s power grid, widely considered the worse in the nation; a grid whose reliability may have been further compromised by the green energy policies pursued by the state.
Whoaha! This one has everything, just what I need to cheer me up, given the ultra-depressing news that Karma Harris will be the communist multiracial president of United States. The idea that global cosmic catastrophe is coming our way, by a wayward Planet X is exciting, if not liberating, because we are so far down the sewer that we need something like this to clean the system out, a hyper-Darwinian event. And what is there not to like with that?

“A large, planet-sized mass inhabits our solar system, and its large elliptical orbit around the sun brings it across Earth’s orbital plane every 3,600 years or so, wreaking havoc on our planet due to strong gravity effects. The U.S. government has been aware of the approach of “Planet X” for over forty years, warns John Moore “The Liberty Man,” in a jaw-dropping new interview on Brighteon Conversations. (See below.) While Planet X won’t strike the Earth, it’s nearby approach will unleash cataclysmic consequences across our planet that may bring an end to human civilization as we know it, Moore explains in the interview. Those effects may include a global “pole shift,” which means the Earth’s crust slips to a new orientation, unleashing extreme winds, volcanoes, earthquakes, flooding, tidal waves and more. “Every structure on the surface of the Earth would be destroyed,” explains Moore, who reveals the governments of the world are frantically constructing more underground bunkers in anticipation of catastrophic events. John Moore is a former U.S. Army intelligence analyst and took part in 57 air combat missions over Vietnam and Cambodia. He later become a homicide detective for the state of Missouri. As a long-time radio host, Moore has developed a long list of sources inside government and the U.S. military. He hosts a radio show each weekday from 8 – 10 am central time, via Republic Broadcasting. Learn all the details at TheLibertyMan.com. As Moore explains in the video below, the pole shift would place North America closer to the equator than its current position, and the “bulge” of ocean water at the equator (due to centrifugal forces of the rotating planet) would raise the level of the ocean by hundreds of feet compared to the continental United States. John Moore’s website — TheLibertyMan.com — hosts this map of anticipated changes.”
A NSW Bushfire Enquiry concluded: “Hazard-reduction burns should be greatly increased”. What a breath of good sense. If there is no fuel, there can be no fire. They also urge a return to indigenous fire management. Aboriginals burnt anything and everything, at any time, for any reason. They had no water-bombers and seldom tried to put fires out, but they did understand back-burning. Their vegetation management created the vast and productive open forests and grasslands that supported large populations of marsupials and birds. But tree huggers would never support this. They prefer scrub, weeds, pests and occasional fierce wildfires.

Tasmania has now recorded its coldest day of -14 C, and snow is falling in all sorts of place it has never done before. Does anyone remember global warming? You know, temperature risers and all that? That was the scam crisis before the present two. I will be thinking of this while I freeze and possibly die in an ice block in my flat here in Melbourne, being too poor for heating. At least our resident survivalist, John Steele, out in the Victorian scrub, will be burning half a forest that he has no doubt cut down, hopefully no Australian animals in it, such as polar bears, wolves, walruses, seals … as we will soon see on Melbournian streets, since people have gone.

“Tasmania has recorded its coldest ever day since records began of -14.2C as the rest of the eastern states are warned to prepare for heavy rain and cold temperatures this weekend. The Bureau of Meterology labelled this week's weather as 'a very significant event', and beat the state's previous record of -14C in 1983. So cold, in fact, that it was actually warmer at the Australian Antartic reasearch station in Casey on Thursday, meteorologist Simon Louis told the ABC. 'I don't think that would happen very often at all,' he said. Video footage, taken on Wednesday, showed Aussie Rules players bracing the icy conditions to train in Launceston in the north of the state. A wombat was also filmed wandering along a boardwalk looking for his underground burrow in the snow earlier in the week.”

Queensland’s Great Barrier Reef is once again the excuse for extending Green control of all land and waters. Their current scare concerns the quality of water draining into the Coral Sea.
Their hidden agenda is to eliminate coastal agriculture, mining and commercial fishing. They would surrender the land to kangaroos, cassowaries, lantana, cane toads, wild cats and feral pigs and the seas to marauding sharks, cruising whales and aboriginal fishermen.
Reef Warriors will never be satisfied until pure water drains from farms, mines, ports and rivers along the Queensland coast. This is an impossible and misguided dream. Pure water is sterile and nothing flourishes in it.
Vibrant offshore life needs winds, rivers and creeks to deliver minerals and nutrients into coastal waters.
Corals, shellfish and marine plants need calcium, magnesium, potassium, phosphorus, nitrogen, sulphur, carbon dioxide and trace elements to build their skeletons, shells and plant tissues.
Australian soils are leached and deficient in many minerals. Farmers know that farm crops and domestic animals need mineral fertilisers for healthy growth – so do potted plants, orchards and gardens; and so does all ocean life.
Many of these minerals are supplied naturally by erosion of rocks such as limestone, magnesite, rock phosphate, dolomite, basalt or granite. This is a slow process but mining, crushing or calcining of these rocks can speed things up, providing natural mineral fertilizer for farms, and any dust and river runoff provides free fertilizer for offshore marine life.
Seaweed and other marine plants need fertile muds delivered by flooding rivers and all marine animals welcome bits of dead animal life.
All natural fertilisers used for land plants will also benefit sea plants. Dust and smoke from bushfires, volcanoes, smelters and power stations can deliver natural nutrients such as oxides of nitrogen, sulphur and carbon (all essential for vigorous healthy vegetation) to soils and plants in surrounding areas. There is no danger as long as exhaust stacks or volcanic cones are high enough or remote enough to dilute these gases before they reach the ground.
The atmosphere and surface waters are efficient distributers of dilute aerial fertilisers to land and sea plants. This is far safer and cheaper than manufacturing artificial fertilisers and animal supplements and then selling these products to farmers who sometimes over-apply.
The main run-off dangers to coastal waters are herbicide and pesticide residue and soluble artificial chemical fertilisers used in excessive quantities – this is real pollution and it must be controlled. Farmers have an incentive to control it – every bit that runs off is money wasted in purchase and application. Governments should stop employing green activists – we must restore a real department of agriculture employing experienced agronomists dedicated to helping farmers, not looking for ways to put them out of business.
One of the safest and most complete sources of trace nutrients for land and sea plants is coal – decomposed coal, coal dust, or emissions from coal combustion. Why so good? Because almost every element in coal came from plants and is needed by plants. In the coalfields, the outcrops of weathered coal seams can often be seen on aerial photos as bands of better soil and thicker healthier scrub.
Barrier Reef Water Warriors need a dose of reality and perspective. Since construction of the Burdekin Falls Dam, the mighty Burdekin River delivers far less sediment and nutrients into the Coral Sea. We can assist nature to restore some of this loss with aerial or aqueous mineral nutrients from mining and agricultural sources.
Coal mining and combustion provides many nutrients that benefit all plant and animal life. None are toxic unless artificially concentrated.

The flat Earth folk are too much two dimensional. If they followed the philosopher Plato and held that the Earth is a cube, then they would be getting somewhere:
https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2020/07/200720112214.htm
“In a new paper in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, a team from the University of Pennsylvania, Budapest University of Technology and Economics, and University of Debrecen uses math, geology, and physics to demonstrate that the average shape of rocks on Earth is a cube. "Plato is widely recognized as the first person to develop the concept of an atom, the idea that matter is composed of some indivisible component at the smallest scale," says Douglas Jerolmack, a geophysicist in Penn's School of Arts & Sciences' Department of Earth and Environmental Science and the School of Engineering and Applied Science's Department of Mechanical Engineering and Applied Mechanics. "But that understanding was only conceptual; nothing about our modern understanding of atoms derives from what Plato told us. "The interesting thing here is that what we find with rock, or earth, is that there is more than a conceptual lineage back to Plato. It turns out that Plato's conception about the element earth being made up of cubes is, literally, the statistical average model for real earth. And that is just mind-blowing." The group's finding began with geometric models developed by mathematician Gábor Domokos of the Budapest University of Technology and Economics, whose work predicted that natural rocks would fragment into cubic shapes.
Just to add icing to the cake, what we need next is an alien invasion. Sure, we have mass immigration, but that is humans. How about alien spaces craft from other worlds? Or, perhaps, the latest fear, space germs, sent here specially to wipe us out. Far fetched? Well, the truth is out there, somewhere.

“Despite Pentagon statements that it disbanded a once-covert program to investigate unidentified flying objects, the effort remains underway — renamed and tucked inside the Office of Naval Intelligence, where officials continue to study mystifying encounters between military pilots and unidentified aerial vehicles. Pentagon officials will not discuss the program, which is not classified but deals with classified matters. Yet it appeared last month in a Senate committee report outlining spending on the nation’s intelligence agencies for the coming year. The report said the program, the Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon Task Force, was “to standardize collection and reporting” on sightings of unexplained aerial vehicles, and was to report at least some of its findings to the public every six months. While retired officials involved with the effort — including Harry Reid, the former Senate majority leader — hope the program will seek evidence of vehicles from other worlds, its main focus is on discovering whether another nation, especially any potential adversary, is using breakout aviation technology that could threaten the United States. Senator Marco Rubio, the Florida Republican who is the acting chairman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, told a CBS affiliate in Miami this month that he was primarily concerned about reports of unidentified aircraft over American military bases — and that it was in the government’s interest to find out who was responsible.”
The technocrats would not stop at 5G technology, but immediately are going to 6G. Then it will be 7G, and finally infinity G, until the entire planet is cooked, everything melted down to the molten core of the Earth. Only when total universal destruction of the planet comes, can the elites stop, because they would have melted too:

“6G is coming! Well, not anytime soon but it is expected to be keep the world connected by the year 2028. Samsung has released its 6G white paper, providing details on what can be expected. We are still waiting for 5G that is expected in mid-2020, but "it’s not too early to start preparing for 6G.” “While 5G commercialization is still in its initial stage, it’s never too early to start preparing for 6G because it typically takes around 10 years from the start of research to commercialization of a new generation of communications technology,” said Sunghyun Choi, Head of the Advanced Communications Research Center. “We’ve already launched the research and development of 6G technologies by building upon the experience and ability we have accumulated from working on multiple generations of communications technology, including 5G. Going forward, we are committed to leading the standardization of 6G in collaboration with various stakeholders across industry, academia and government fields.” “Samsung defines three categories of requirements that have to be met to realize 6G services – performance, architectural and trustworthiness requirements.” Samsung is set to begin 6G research in "full-scale" this year, said Choi. It also aims to have started extensive work on defining and developing technical standards in 2021. In the white paper, Samsung expects that the completion of the 6G standard and its earliest commercialization date could be as early as 2028. Mass commercialisation may occur around 2030, with humans and machines (yes, machines) being the main users of 6G.
The idea that the ancestors of the American Indians, the Clovis people of around 11,00 years ago, were the only people to settle the Americas in prehistory has been facing challenge, even in our pc times. Of course, evidence of white settlement is always discounted.
https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-53486868
“Humans settled in the Americas much earlier than previously thought, according to new finds from Mexico. They suggest people were living there 33,000 years ago, twice the widely accepted age for the earliest settlement of the Americas. The results are based on work at Chiquihuite Cave, a high-altitude rock shelter in central Mexico. Archaeologists found nearly 2,000 stone tools, suggesting the cave was used by people for at least 20,000 years.

https://news.uark.edu/articles/54830/physicists-build-circuit-that-generates-clean-limitless-power-from-graphene
“A team of University of Arkansas physicists has successfully developed a circuit capable of capturing graphene's thermal motion and converting it into an electrical current. “An energy-harvesting circuit based on graphene could be incorporated into a chip to provide clean, limitless, low-voltage power for small devices or sensors,” said Paul Thibado, professor of physics and lead researcher in the discovery. The findings, titled "Fluctuation-induced current from freestanding graphene," and published in the journal Physical Review E, are proof of a theory the physicists developed at the U of A three years ago that freestanding graphene — a single layer of carbon atoms — ripples and buckles in a way that holds promise for energy harvesting. The idea of harvesting energy from graphene is controversial because it refutes physicist Richard Feynman’s well-known assertion that the thermal motion of atoms, known as Brownian motion, cannot do work. Thibado’s team found that at room temperature the thermal motion of graphene does in fact induce an alternating current (AC) in a circuit, an achievement thought to be impossible. In the 1950s, physicist Léon Brillouin published a landmark paper refuting the idea that adding a single diode, a one-way electrical gate, to a circuit is the solution to harvesting energy from Brownian motion. Knowing this, Thibado’s group built their circuit with two diodes for converting AC into a direct current (DC). With the diodes in opposition allowing the current to flow both ways, they provide separate paths through the circuit, producing a pulsing DC current that performs work on a load resistor.
Great article by Greg Sheridan about how Australia is retreating from coal, where sensible nations like China are making heaps of coal-fired power stations, and to hell with nonsense about global warming. We need coal mining, digging up every spot of ground where coal is, and burning all of it. The more, the better, in my opinion. As I believe in global cooling I see increasing the carbon footprint a good thing, but that is just my opinion. We need coal for jobs of many people in the outback.
https://www.theaustralian.com.au/commentary/australias-great-and-costly-retreat-from-coal/news-story/5e4f7457d48d07c89425cd77c812f80c
“The biggest story of the moment, the biggest structural change in our politics, is that the Morrison government has admitted comprehensive and probably permanent defeat on coal. It seems like a different era in history when Scott Morrison as treasurer proudly brandished a lump of coal in parliament to demonstrate his party’s commitment to our black gold. Still the largest source of our power, still our second biggest export, coal has been placed in the Coalition’s fantasy technology basket, to be revisited one day in the mythical future when renewables don’t need subsidies, pumped hydro creates more energy than it consumes, China’s carbon market comes into operation, and Australia wins soccer’s World Cup 6-0 against Brazil. The new lowest common denominator on coal is we continue to export it but there are no circumstances in which we build a coal-fired power station. This is how conservative governments embrace long-term strategic defeat. They win a thousand tactical victories as they march backwards. The Coalition has lost the coal argument. It came into office in 2013 never dreaming it would abandon coal, but that is what it has done. Labor and the Greens have won the argument even as they have lost the elections. The conservatives — meaning the Liberals and the Nationals — have accepted defeat. The Coalition has a good chance of retaining government by arguing that it will implement the left’s policies more carefully, cautiously, modestly, competently and with less economic damage than Labor would.
