Rough ride Ahead

Rough ride ahead

I have decided to get my Political Climate Change post out of the way early on in this election campaign and then try to stay out of the fray with maybe the odd comments as a P.S. here and there (here's hoping)

There is no doubt that Climate Change is an election issue, I was just on a Climate Change site where kevin07.com came up in the Google Adwords Ad, so Labor are clearly pulling out all stops to make it an election issue. As much as I am all for Climate Change awareness I can't help but secretly think that I don't want Climate Change to be an election issue, mainly because of the misleading statements that will inevitably be made.

Climate Change is an important issue and it would be a shame for all of us to lose sight of the FACTS. There has already been enough damage to the few good things we are doing e.g. the Collapse of the NSW NGAC System and the collapse of Companies like Easy Being Green. Much as I don't think these systems were doing enough they were better than the nothing we currently have during this political uncertainly: Liberal and Labor are GUILTY HERE

The best thing that can happen is for the Liberals to do what they alluded to last week i.e. say they will sign the new Version of Kyoto and that people would be AWESOME and should be the END OF CLIMATE CHANGE as an issue for this election campaign, let them slug it out on other issues.

Let's FACE IT PEOPLE they are preaching to the converted, hell even johnny Howard has backflipped on the issue.

OK thats it from me, you all know where I stand, here's hoping I can bury my head in the sand.

cheers

P.S. I do have thoughts on Climate Change and the noble Peace Prize on www.climateforum.com.au

Climate Change Poll Results

The Poll results are in, I wonder if Kevin Rudd will pay for the information? ......wishfull thinking I imagine....... so drum roll people...here are the results, I am sure none of you have been sleeping over this.........

Question 1 was, Do you think australia should pay to combat Climate change in the Asian Region?
80% of the huge no of people surveyed think that it is all 1 world and they don't mind that Labour is going to chip in $150million of our tax money to help combat Climate Change in the Asian Region. ...I can't beleive Kevin wouldn't pay to know this then again we have shown before that he reads Orble blogs and pays attention to us so on that premise I have just given him the info for free dam it.......

Question 2 was, Do you think Climate change is a hoax?
You will also be pleased to know that only 1% of people thought Climate change was a hoax so we are doing better than the UK where 49% of people think it is. I am definitely going to see if that changes after they Air the Channel 4 Documentary.

My new Poll this week is going to beg the question weighting on my mind.

Do you think Polls are stupid and annoying?

I am scared to know the answer because I am having fun conducting my little Polls but I think a few people out there might hate them, then again if you hate polls then why would you participate in one even if it was to say that you hate them so maybe Ill be surprised at the response...then again can I trust the replies because the sample will be biased, only a poll can tell....ok Ill shut up now.
