"Carbon (Dioxide) trading is now the fastest growing commodities market on earth.....And here’s the great thing about it. Unlike traditional commodities markets, which will eventually involve delivery to someone in physical form, the carbon (dioxide) market is based on lack of delivery of an invisible substance to no-one. Since the market revolves around creating carbon (dioxide) credits, or finding carbon (dioxide) reduction projects whose benefits can then be sold to those with a surplus of emissions, it is entirely intangible."

This blog has been tracking the 'Global Warming Scam' for over ten years now. There are a very large number of articles being published in blogs and more in the MSM who are waking up to the fact the public refuse to be conned any more and are objecting to the 'green madness' of governments and the artificially high price of energy. This blog will now be concentrating on the major stories as we move to the pragmatic view of 'not if, but when' and how the situation is managed back to reality. To quote Professor Lindzen, "a lot of people are going to look pretty silly"

All this water may wash away our dam madness

Andrew Bolt,Herald Sun (Australia)
"Not a single new dam has been built to supply an Australian capital city since Melbourne’s Thomson Dam was hooked up in 1984 - with the sole exception of South-East Queensland ‘s Wyaralong dam, completed just in time for these recent rains to start filling it.

In that time:

- Every capital city on the mainland has been subjected to water restrictions

- NSW banned the Welcome Reef dam in 2002 in on environmental grounds.

- The Rudd Government banned a mega-dam on Queensland’s Mary River to “save” the lungfish.

- The Victorian Labor Government turned a dam reservation on the fast-flowing Mitchell River into a national park instead to stop any new dam.

- The Queensland and Victorian Labor Governments claimed global warming would dry up the rains anyway, making a new dam useless.

- Queensland built instead a $1.1 desalination plant, now mothballed because of the rains.

- Victoria built instead a $5.7 billion desalination plant, costing four times the price of a new dam for a third of the water.

With luck, these rains will be the cold shower we needed to snap out of this insanity."
