ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT ELECTION ISSUES IN THE C ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT ELECTION ISSUES IN THE COMMUNITY IS ACTION ON CLIMATE CHANGE – WHY AREN’T THE MAJOR PARTIES LISTENING?

When dealing with climate change issues, one leader is blissfully ignorant and pretending not to be a climate change denier, and the other leader, although trying is still falling well short of the expectations of most Australian voters.

Morrison has done nothing and is almost certain to do nothing to bring Australia into line with most of our trading partners in stopping global warming. The fact is that with his cabinet stacked with climate change non-believers, and some of them in leading roles in departments critical when it comes to the environment. Joyce, Taylor and Pitt have charge of infrastructure, transport and regional development; industry, energy and emissions reduction; and resources and water. Unless you’ve been under a rock for the past three years you’ll know that none of these men have any interest in reversing global warming or reducing emissions. Unbelievably, the Minister for Emissions Reduction, Taylor has moved to expand the mandate of the Australian Renewable Energy Agency to allow it to fund carbon capture and storage and “clean” hydrogen projects produced from fossil fuels – his attempts have been unsuccessful, so far!

 [YOU CAN READ MORE ABOUT TAYLOR AND CARBON CAPTURE HERE – http://rockflat.com.au OR #rockflatblog]

Labor fares better – marginally. The Labor target for zero emissions beats the Morrison government’s pathetic effort by fifteen years, yet that is still nowhere near good enough as Labor appears determined to maintain, if not expand, Australia’s coal mining. One can hope that this is a “small target” ploy to help get them elected when they could gradually take a more positive stand towards helping cool the planet.

If climate change repair is of concern to you, there are probably three possible scenarios after 21st May. The first is a re-elected Morrison government, the second a Labor government, or the third more appealing scene being a minority government relying on the sensible contribution of a number of independents. It's doubtful that Morrison and coalition egos woud allow this!

As he stands on the headland and starts to throw m As he stands on the headland and starts to throw more than $5 billion over the cliff and into the sea, Australian taxpayers are asking WHY?

QUESTION: Who would do that?

ANSWER: Our Prime Minister, Scott Morrison

QUESTION: WTF! Why would he do that?

ANSWER: Through an opaque subterfuge of spin and outright lies … nobody really knows. Perhaps the answer lies somewhere between a desire to resurrect the White Australia Policy – especially when it comes to whom we spend our money with – and Morrison’s complete lack of respect of the status of people like French President Macron, and his own twisted view of how important Australia really is in the scheme of things.

How many teachers, nurses, disability carers, and those that seem to be in permanent conflict with the NDIS could have had some benefit from that wasted $5 billion+ that will be spent to extricate Australia from a contract with France to build submarines – with absolutely nothing to show!

AUKUS is another financial catastrophe waiting to happen … just give it time, and who knows how many billions to get us out of Morrisons next stuff up. 

My suggestion is, don’t give Morrison that time.
Current Finance Minister Birmingham was very quick Current Finance Minister Birmingham was very quick to point out "the Chinese Communist Party's extreme hostility towards the Australian government,"
Has the minister failed to hear Dutton's aggressive and overtly hostile attacks on China? Or doesn't that count coming from a a white anglo-Auustralian?
Wouldn't it be nice to have some transparency and truth instead of all the exaggerations, spin and outright lies! It seems we won't get it from this lot who follow in the footsteps of their master, Morrison.

Does Morrison even understand hydrogen technology Does Morrison even understand hydrogen technology as a renewable energy source? Hydrogen hubs are being touted as the next good thing in the renewable energy industry, but mostly only in Australia. This weekend, Morrison has promised 2 new hydrogen hubs for Western Australia, which would seem to be yet another boost for the fossil fuel industry. Why? Because the technology to produce hydrogen requires an enormous amount of power and that power will have to come from coal fired and gas power stations.
Again, Morrison uses tricky and deception to hide the truth. He only ever tells the whole story when it’s electorally favourable to him and his party. 
So, let’s re-phrase Morrison’s announcement in more truthful, transparent terms.
Today, Prime Minister Morrison announced that 2 new hydrogen hubs will be built in Western Australia as part of the promised $275 million handout to those supposedly developing the technology, many of which are mining companies. The fossil fuel extraction company boardrooms are celebrating today as their chief benefactor finds yet another way to distribute public money to them, as well as shoring up the immediate future of coal mines and coal-fired power stations.
Morrison why haven’t you given more support to truly renewable energy sources that actually work?

A brilliant cartoon by David Pope - Canberra Times A brilliant cartoon by David Pope - Canberra Times. Unfortunately the attitude expressed is probably close to the beliefs of climate skeptics.
Morrison is determined to fight the forthcoming el Morrison is determined to fight the forthcoming election with a scare campaign on national security. It is difficult to be any further away from Russia and Ukraine than Australia is, without actually leaving the planet, yet Morrison is rattling the sabre, making promises to far away countries that Australia is in “lockstep” with them against Russia. Exactly what will some petty Australian sanctions imposed on a couple of remote districts in far Eastern Europe mean?
Morrison should look much closer to home where there is a military regime practicing genocide on their own people, arresting and detaining protesters, students and errant journalists, and raking in millions and millions of dollars from businesses they control. Yes, Mr Morrison it’s time to impose some meaningful sanctions on Myanmar (Burma) that might mean something in our part of the world – or is it the trade we do with Burma in coal or iron ore or something else that is stopping you? #rockflatblog @RockflatClimate
