Any discussion of adaptive responses to the rapidly unfolding global weather systems, food production, waterways & fisheries management failure that is not firmly premised on a radical reduction in fossil fuels burning not by 2030 but virtually immediately is nothing but a sop to big contractors, global accounting firms and truly #corrupt governments & financiers – yet another multibillion dollar onslaught of Business as Usual.

– Which in my studied opinion (since 2003 in fact when as a progressive economist & pioneer of organic regenerative agriculture I was living in virtual exile in my own land, at Thevenard Far-West South Australia), having upset both the Australian Labor Party and the Liberal Party of Australia in a by-election in May 1992 (with the very same greeneconomyaction.com programs readers honour me by reading about right here) will only reduce one critical indicator by 2030, namely the life expectancy on newborn humans to 45-50 years.

Mr Albanese’s which is to say the public relations firm RepuTech’s 43% reduction in carbon dioxide to atmosphere from #electricity⚡️⚡️production over EIGHT years and even then reliant on bogus credits and nonexistent offsets quantifying vegetation non-clearing (!) and the planting of tiny trees that will not emit more oxygen than they draw in for 8-20 years – if they survive the global disasters of plunging aquifer & sub-soil moisture levels AND disappearing winter rains in temperate regions (around the world) – is literally riot-provoking too, except in Australia, as most countries, the quieter older or more disabled battlers in this time of the.. #COVID are more frightened than ever now & don’t hit the streets is literally riot-provoking too, except the quiet & older or more disabled battlers are more frightened than ever now & don’t hit the streets… Secondary students are cowed & literally harrassed & bullied by authorities, while young singles, couples & parents of all ages who don’t feast off property & investments are in increasing financial hardship and unable to enjoy any time or freedom to protest – on pain of sacking or humiliation by religious or civil society cranks and “cookers” or political madmen.

We are looking at revolutionary & near immediate change of technology – notably to electrify everything as @GriffithSaul, @mcannonbrookes & am sure all renewable energy researchers and #ESG investors would now aver.. and grow more distressed by the day with old economy capital owners who refuse to allow future human and all-species ecological #health.

I’d choose not include the Catholic Church “Holy See” on a list of “legitimate countries..”Its very status as an observer-state, though advocating for no regions or communities within its borders, unlike its fellow Palestine, subverts the superordinate representative-democracy purposes of any viable economy. This church is a global corporation exempt from tax and neither answerable to nor legitimated by any sovereign population. Its claims to represent all humans are flatly contradicted by its history of conquest oppression and the ongoing relegation of female human beings to lives of subordination by men and most obscenely blind insistence on excessive births, which are imposing a stress on the the eutrophying, putrefying, increasingly toxified and polluted global environment in practical day-to-day survival and human health terms to as significant a degree as dangerous as the continuing and even increasing catastrophic pumping of 50 trillion tonnes and more of carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide and the raft of “greenhouse gases” generated in industrial chemical manufacturing into the earth’s atmosphere.

Concentric-circles Economy (1995, Australia).. the 5 real geographical domains contained by real community (a notional 100squ km), right down to the individual adult thru couple C2 thru household C3 thru neighbourhood C4 to 10squ km + the 4 from regional (say 1000 squ km -10000 squ km) to quadrispheric/ “national”/ C7 to hemispheric/ C8 to terrestrial, polar, oceanic #world C9 – a #food- and #FossilFuels-Kilometres model for economic restructuring.

The energy crisis has been blown out of the water or at least of the ice and snow as the complete man-made trashing of reliable seasonal 10,000 year-old global weather systems takes on its most terrifying presentations in entire recorded human history – 40°C above normal eastern #antarctica #temperatures.

5-6 thousand kilometres due north of that calamity the slow moving east Australian floods (plural, repetitive) from moist warm air in low pressure weather systems that are now taking 5-8 days to move off the coast in an easterly direction with the earth’s rotation. One of the apparent reasons is the slowing of cooling currents northward from the Antarctic coast towards the equator due to the heating of ocean water in conjunction with the shift of “Roaring Forties” weather from the south-west northwards due to the so call SAM or ‘Antarctic Oscillation’ – exactly parallel with the slowing Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation & larger amplitude Jetstream cold air storms like Hurricanes Katrina & Sandy. Antarctica, ever renowned until now for dry air and heavy winter overcast & cloud aerosols…

No comment offered here on any uneconomic project designed to draw public attention away from frankly maniacal vast continuing discharges of carbon dioxide and methane to air – a crime against humanity that has already trashed weather systems that were stable, reliable & safe for life on earth for 10,000 years.
Beyond #greenwashing to schmooze & confuse consumers of retail consumer goods for the further enrichment of billionaire-oligarchs such industrial activity shows absolute contempt for #esg and its custodians the United Nations & all the rapidly swelling numbers of capable responsible financiers.
At the rotten heart of this ecocidal & incrementally genocidal enterprise is that it is NOT recycling but the proposed pumping of billions of oil-economy old-century trading profits into an all-new carbon-profligate project dependent for its supply of pipelined gases generated by the combustion of #fossilfuels

It is exactly as if the advertising & promotions department of the Gigantic Bomb Corporation has announced that billion-dollar #research results new-in have proved conclusively that Man-made #global #heating was a Greens Party hoax AND that #globalhealth has never been better – their jury is in & it’s all systems go, right??

>>needs edit <<

The urgency of issues arising from the accelerating collapse of ten thousand years of reliable weather-systems demands immediate constructive contributions and input, not publication curlicues or syntactical niceties.

ALL so-called environmental journalism and “climate” retail politics become Foucaultian post-fact nonsenses so siloed & compartmentalised away from ecological reality as to instantly evaporate from any grounded human historical record.

Evanescence & #Microsoft worldwide tourism promotions for rich people become substance in a virtual world, all stories incongenial to the gross accumulation of material and pecuniary wealth quickly fading from view.

These finished published products become absurd documentaries engineered for popular consumption or to keep little children quiet, produced amidst the drumbeats of war as another trillion tonnes of ice, glacier and #albedo liquify, impossible of return and restoration for as long as 400 years, inimical to anthropology, human religions, cultural studies, intelligent non-functionalist, non-ad agency, non-consumer survey, non-focus group, non-romance/ crime/ adventure kiddie narrative sociology & of course all those creatures great & small and “#foreign #races” your #Renaissance public relations and advertising man has a noblesse-oblige duty to

#sciences capture, conquer and suborn to the greater good of pre-1789 European Civilisation.

I passionately hope people discover the importance and immediate value of discarding all the conventions, shibboleths, pomposity and truly bloody-minded lies of Twentieth Century balanced, “values-neutral” & opinionless journalism, monumental fraud against humanity that in my own honest and trenchant opinion it is..

THIS is the proverbial big picture of life on earth – far, far greater levels of awareness about how writers come across to audiences, a steely grip of both macroeconomic AND the macro-ecological realities and readiness at a moment’s notice to acknowledge the ideological antecedents of the human or inhumane psychotic (world denying) values base from which all of our textual & audio-visual product springs – or rather surges & spews on an insanely crowded stage of entirely artificially constructed & confected “values-free,” dispassionate, objective, evidence-anchored, even-handed, impartial “observers” or “#experts” we should all check with before believing in phenomena like #Covid_19, billionaire greed, the Julian calendar or truly #apocalytic man-made #FossilFuels burning carbon-gas induced #global #heating..

And of the course the first thing the global Big 4 accounting firms, Wall St and City of London #EXPERTS & imperious grandly-titled #STEM-ie #FACTS #checkers will do is check with Madison Ave., the likes of Cambridge Analytica 2016, Breitbart, Hunter Biden (you name it – any big money movers), Burston Marsela, Sir Lynton Crosby (who like Andrew Robb began his career as director of the Liberal Party of Australia in Adelaide SA) whereupon at least 75% of professional #journalists paid well because of their obvious union bargaining power in a monetary value- & human values-fractured almost entirely dysfunctional (except for enriching the rich) global consumption, extraction & combustion #economy and liking their money very much will promptly, obediently & increasingly pathetically obey advice to use equivocal or even nonsense terminology like #ClimateChange – or just to be a tiny bit excitable, salacious or provocative keywords like #ClimateCrisis or #ClimateEmergency – believe their audiences are endlessly gullible fools – a clear socio-cultural outcome of #Pentacostal & in fact all #evangelical (crowd-rousing) wealth ministry doctrines. If they don’t hold with this socially-engineered misanthropy their news tycoons and sociopaths like the-world-of-purely-#econometric-values-and-NO-others Koch Brothers will quietly (or noisily in a whackjob podcasters’ celebrity subculture peopled by princes of some medieval realm, #Instagram money-grubbers & second- or third-rate entertainers nobody over 45 with a reasonable liberal education or much self-respect has ever heard of) give the (authentic & decent) journalists the Royal Order of the Boot. It is, as simultaneously tragic & repulsive figure Chris Lorax in Shaun Micallef’s TV show reliably chimes in, “just a bit of fun.”

Stuff like ‘#emergency’ or ‘#crisis,’ segues nicely to the outrageous cock of #resilience & manly/ Buffy vampire-slayer #adaptation. – And on and on this death-machine goes with stoccato ratt-a-tatt-tatt beginning-middle-&-rousing rhetorical end stories lasting 75 to say 180 seconds which are all over & done within 12 hours and if still hanging around 24 hours later, like pesky floods or depressing bushfires for re-doing with

1) a new angle, new faces and ever highly marketable manic google-eyed sermoniacal messages of compassion, hope and love OK?

2) National Geographic/ Economic-geography 101 1970-style @nature yarns about stellar objects, archeology, the pyramids, Incan girl murder by the state, or filler-pieces about the heatwave in Antarctica – or Lytton, Verkhoyansk, or Fort McMurray 2016 which equivocate disgracefully & mindlessly about the contributory causes or flat-out deny, repudiate or censor #Facts – as in Trudeau’s Canada!

3) crazy-arsed oil-economy puff-pieces, thin throwaway pamphlet-, video- or glossy booklet- style promotions like 1980s #business #plans designed to tickle loan finance out of the rich old cognitively-impaired people on bank boards – or in senior positions for goodness’ sake on #ccs (Carbon Capture & Storage), #geoengineering and the global carbon offsets & monetised derivative trading fraud (see #McKinsey&co for example – the Morrison Australian government spent $9 million on their report to take it to the COP26 Glasgow meeting 31/10 -7/11/2021, to humiliate and demean the entire Australian people in the eyes of the world. Zinger.

4) ever more comic book & masculinist penetrative noisy television cartoons made to keep the kiddies quiet (irony? no, more like #domestic #violence)( as we have advised in this journal Australia has a mental-illness & public-acts-expressing-hatred-&-self-hatred bomb no-one apparently knows how to defuse and that we idiotically allow useless psychiatrists to haplessly fuel with psychotropic drugs bereft of real human relationship & post-trauma psychotherapy, group work, fitness & educational recreation programs) to symbolically, literally, patriotically belt out a billion-dollar ‘both-sidesist”/ oh goody a #debate/ balanced reporting/ equal-time for narcissists, sociopaths a-n-d perhaps some other down-home or Mom’s Basement folk so long as the optics are wonky, or the light poor, so they look like donkeys or dills to our bored viewers

5) w-h-o-o-p-s I just accidentally zipped-out the 180+ words in this section: time to knock off for now

This vital discussion as ideological neoliberalism and utter contempt for both humanity and its now terminally (that is to say in significant part irreversibly for at least 350 years) damaged environs must urgently be taken up worldwide with United Nations supervision. In the entire written history of the human race, say 80,000 years there has never been a moment like this, nor the 120,000 years since alligators swam in the Arctic Sea (James Lovelock, A Rough Ride to the Future, May 2014)

It is essentially Friedmanite bogus freedom (penis-waving & arbitrary acts of violation as the tantrumming 4 year-old in a supermarket) wildly and bizarrely transcending post-#Renaissance #neoclassical #Enlightenment #equality and everyone else’s #FreedomToSpeakHonestly on behalf of fake Jean-Jacques Rousseau mock-heroics that is destroying the living once-reliable world about us and as this evil neoliberal oil-economy objective is realised smashing civil society – trying to erase insurrections-against-the-state from #historical record, for example.

In Australia #anarchist #libertarian “cooker” (psycho-emotionally ‘cooked’ – with mental faculties ‘stewed’) agitator halfwits, dickheads & thugs in public life are engaged in coercive conduct and the knowing deliberate incitement of hatred, even violence.

Nothing normal.

@georgina_gustin provides the full Walter Cronkite-Alan Greenspan* era balanced report on the US Security & Exchange Commission’s dipping of a tentative toe into 21st century theory & philosophy of law** (under the inescapable growing onslaught of damages claims from storm, flood, fire, drought & aquifer-loss, extreme heat & prolonged ice storms and (before long) lethal or neurodegenerative infectious disease outbreaks in #climate zones previously unknown for the prevalence of these).

“The SEC has started from a baseline of asking for full scope reporting, which is where I think this needs to be,” said Ivan Frishberg, chief sustainability officer for Amalgamated Bank and a member of the Partnership for Carbon Accounting Financials, a framework for banks to disclose the climate impact of their lending. “The SEC then, in an effort to accommodate the transition to full implementation, worked to phase in or trigger some of the scope three elements in ways that make sense in some regards, but could create some loopholes for laggards…”

““We are concerned that the Commission’s sweeping proposal could require non-material disclosures and create confusion for investors and capital markets,” said Frank Macchiarola, API’s senior vice president of policy, economics and regulatory affairs, in a statement. 

“Tom Quaadman, executive vice president of the Chamber of Commerce’s Center for Capital Markets Competitiveness, suggested that the rule will ultimately end up in the courts. 

““The Supreme Court has been clear that any required disclosures under securities laws must meet the test of materiality, and we will advocate against provisions of this proposal that deviate from that standard or are unnecessarily broad,” he said.”

We shall electrify everything or render our own habitat & habitats plural unliveable for mammals – even as soon as 2032 by my own worst-case-scenario projections 19 years ago.

If we refuse to give up the vicarious comforts of nonsense-#science, the plethora of heavily corporate-funded irrelevant, marginal but politically-correct or unobjectionable-to-a-disappearing-neoliberal-regime “science” of counting stuff & modelling the arcane or immaterial, if we persist with obscenely costly (uneconomic with bells-on – alarm bells) delusions about #ccs, #nuclear #power and ALL #geoengineering not totally rooted or grounded in ecological & atmospheric reality, AND maintain fake credits & offsets schemes for carbon going to air for goodness’ sake, AND maintain #FossilFuels Business as Usual then we will have sold out our grandchildren to the 2-bit daytime TV publicists, the half-crazed podcasters, fruitloop narcissists, cognitively-impaired celebrities and hateful billlionaires.

FRIDAYS FOR CLIMATE

You could not find anywhere such a bunch of neo-absurdist sub-editorial junk as this primary-schoolers’* “The poor cute animals” #MadAsHell Shaun Micallef/ Chris Lorax crowd of latté sippers in paper cups/ avocado smashing leafy suburban characters’ w…Show. – Lorax is a supposed satiric character. #comedy has been virtually dead in our country for 30 years – it’s in the keep of pranksters, mostly affluent college-boys, at Morrison’s & Buttrose’s frankly ludicrous frozen-in-time (Hawke-Keating era) #ABC.

Since the only tools human beings have at their disposal to effect radical change in culture and economy are linguistic it is important to note that Australia is indeed in a 1980s – or perhaps even a 1950’s immediate post World War 2/ Marshall Plan era – time warp where public communications of all kinds especially news are thought to be matters for some bizarre neo-Freudian quasi-Shakespearean Renaissance-Man heroic folksy kiddie-cartoon narrative of mastery over all creatures great and small where student protests are only evaluated on their showbiz “production values” (colour, movement, singing & goofing off by screen-manageable groups of up to 25): NO reference is made to content or human – or animal, bird or fish – life & death policy matters at all (except by interviewees poor sad old rich people will enjoy sneering at), BUT business is business, technology is for experts and health is for the doctors & professors of medicine. So you will kindly not challenge or question any of the empowered political class on their quarter-million dollar & upwards incomes and least of all, last of all, the most dimwitted and cognitively challenged elite of book keepers, courtiers & acolytes (these are Sucks, in common parlance) ever to draw breath – and their inflated salaries – the neo Keynesian Friedmanite market economists under strict riding instructions from the gross accumulators, major accounting firms & c-c-crazy Dr Strangeloves of this half-broken world. And as these supply & demand free-market & adjusted interest rates monkeys assure us that fresh water & oxygenated air are in boundless inelastic supply and that all bad things like 500-year floods. coastal inundation, fires, droughts, 47-50 degrees C summer days, radioactivity-, plastics- & toxic synthetic farm/ domestic chemicals contamination, incomprehensibly vast man-made chemicals pollution, plunging fresh-water aquifer levels, dying eutrophic rivers & wetlands including the greatest on earth that in net quanta no longer absorb carbon dioxide or generate oxygen, Category 5 storms, ever more rapidly evolving virulent (even lethal) viruses, extreme poverty, food shortage, starvation and mass migrations..

..WILL magically evaporate under clinically psychotic neoliberal belief/ carpetbagger robber-baron gross-accumulator government funding policy – outrageous fiscal handouts and tax exemptions, of course, but also flatly genocidal ecocidal post Bretton Woods 1944 monetarism and its now completely exploded derivatives markets for all those satanic rentiers on earth who crave the 1890’s London ‘Bloomsbury Set’ or “Roaring Twenties” orgiastic patrician or aristoi lifestyle.

We teach our innocent kids that all environmental evils and lethal disruption, right down to air with sufficient oxygen for breathing (not mentioned above but shortly coming to a theatre near you & me), will go away if only we working people and leaners like assets-poor age pensioners (obviously not clever or intelligent enough to be millionaires and therefore to be harshly judged – well let’s face it, condemned under this new economic order – in this broken world of Trumpian Evangelical Christian neofascism – would try harder – summoning up a fortitude, a #resilience, an #adaptation, structurally adjusting ourselves on the recommended International Monetary Fund lines and evincing a #capacity #building #power usually defeated by our native indolence & laziness – if we would seek, strive, find and not yield until we had mitigated or ameliorated these multifarious but utterly mysterious divine global heating impacts, or indeed rather accept ostracism, exile, home-invasions, random road-rage assaults by other battlers or, dammit, just lie down and die, OK?

Thus we go about our forlorn public duties, not for example trashing entire river systems, wetlands, riparian & marine hatcheries, pioneer-zone & mangrove ecosystems in toto and, er, reefs, which means we get into even more trouble with this zany postmodern neoliberal authoritaryans & their tribe of insanely overpaid political class hatchet-people. Our economists and the noted education reformers Christopher Pyne, Alan Tudge, Dan Tehan, Bridget McKenzie & Stuart Robert did not say this would be easy work and we are of course grateful for their advices. What, Nationals business creep Larry Anthony’s Indue cards? The front of my house sprayed with automatic fire? Again?? Gets a bit rocky, hmm?

Toughen up Princess.

In this culturally re-engineered and politically corrected space, where protest against the man-made global heating apocalypse rapidly and more commonly exponentially or “feedback-loop” unfolding* as 10,000 year-old wet-dry hot-cold weather systems correct atmospheric heating with retarded movement east with the rotation of the earth (as all currents atmospheric & oceanic are warmed up, weakened, or in this hemisphere shifted southward (SAM/ AO since the massive warm air updraft above Antarctica of Spring 2019 at the exact historical moment the subsoil moisture loss, vegetation desiccation and huge ambient heat fires of 2019-20 began) is greeted by official anger, hostility and crude censorship befitting a Third Word military autocracy, women & their bodies give rise to much public controversy & darker skinned people, non-evangelicals and children/ teens who dare venture an opinion about the future viability of life on earth – all of it or any specific micro aspect of it – are problematised, otherised & excluded or even judicially excised from all or any public conversation!

Astoundingly at a moment in #history as this #SARSCoV2 + say 7-8,000 year-old stable and reliable #weather #systems failure, #Mariupol & rising worldwide hatred & contempt for neofascism & its bedmate unregulated/ disregulated neoliberalism tears at the hearts of 3 or 6 billion people, the morally unanchored & largely intellectually bereft Australian political class has spent 2 weeks now on a dull right-wing MP & factional warrior who died suddenly at 52 – riveting schoolyard Sky News questions like why were people mean to her? Jesus would have surely wept copious tears for early 21st century Australia.

In this same utterly explosive period on top of the East Coast floods and the Lismore calamity, the leader of the party about to be swept into power if only it had policies it was unafraid to present – or even had the essential technical grasp of policy areas especially #energy – a proposed “World’s Best Ever” NET (phoney, that is) 43% C emit-to-atmosphere reduction over NINE years from a report by a media-massaging outfit called Reputech – literally ‘reputation protecting’ – the “43” derived on Mr Albanese’s own admission from a new JOBS Target of 604k – but in point of accurate #historical #fact made 2% less than publicly-rejected CMMFEU muppet, #climate denialist & damaged Australian Labor Party goods Bill Shorten’s May 2019 assertion of 45% so as not to alarm wealthy old voters afflicted by short-term memory loss or other symptoms of vascular dementia.

Albanese is shy about Australia’s rooftop solar figures, which are phenomenal, & truly world leading – and will likely get us to a 43% cut to atmospheric devastation – at least HALF of what we need to escape a 2degrees + Celsius rise in average temperatures.

– No technical information either of a home batteries subsidy announced last year of the tech which is ONLY wind, solar and battery, and alas the appalling gas transition for the fiscally endangered gas reliant Snowy Mountains Hydro & the ludicrous internationally offensive Kurri Kurri pork barrel, Newcastle. Technical facts are considered too bewildering for voters. But every 12-year-old kid in Australia is excited by futures. – Although catastrophically kids are still being taught the Carl Sagan pseudo-#science of “no-single-weather-event-may- be-attributed-to-global-heating” and the even more deranged solopsistic nonsense (reinforced by Tory cranks in positions of political-class influence like the former Howard government attorney-general & Ambassador to the Holy See Amanda Vanstone) to the effect that “burning-fossil-fuels-is-not-only-cause-of-[global heating]”..

So that’s the national scorecard on what #Instagram, #Facebook & #Tumblr time wasters, doodlers & business criminals the world over love calling by its sneaky ambiguous greenwashing*** name “climate-change,” with special inescapable irreversible reference to #AGH..

But wait, the failure and corruption of professional journalism & honesty in public life encompasses food & agriculture, genuine research dedicated to the advancement of human society, truly bad science, public health, mental health AND economic reform..

But no, we obedient kiddie ‘Behind the News’ “Triple J” (a rich kids radio network) – or Anne Ruston or Sarah Henderson Sunday School children – get more stuff reminiscent of 1930’s Victorian ALP working class historical struggle or irrelevant 1980’s assertions on behalf of misconceived & unexplained “#jobs #growth” – 1 hour a week for $8, my dears – all the while chatting with daytime television & podcast clowns, unwatchable dopes & misanthropes..

Are we Australians completely crackers?

“Yes but there was only 1mm in the last 8 days,” they go.

Catastrophic anthropogenic global heating weather systems (caused primarily by excessive solar radiation due to CO2 NO2 & CH4 atmospheric pollution eg 425+(?) ppm CO2) (eg NW Cape Tasmania #CSIRO – the government-guy Larry Marshall) move slower eastwards with the rotation of the earth.
