A lot of people don’t seem to be able to distinguish between weather and climate. The climate is what happens over the long term, whereas weather is short term event. A reasonable comparison would be to consider a tennis player such as Coco Gauff. While she’s currently ranked number 3 in the world, there’s no certainty that she’ll win any individual match. However, it would be reasonable to predict that she will win several matches in the next six months and if she were to lose all of them, you’d have to say that there’s been a significant change in her form. In terms of this analogy, her ranking is like the climate while her performance on any given day is like the weather…

Of course, tennis players do find that their “climate” changes over the course of their sporting lifetime, so the analogy only works in a really limited way so if Ms Gauff doesn’t win anything in the next few months you’d have to say that the climate has changed and that it’s no longer a case of weather/whether she wins or not… which is rather like the way that certain politicians look at climate change.

Anyway, I’ve discovered that climate change isn’t really likely to be a problem, because the real problem with climate change is what it does to the weather and, after years of reading how mankind is too insignificant to affect the climate, I’ve recently learned that we can, amazingly, control the weather.

Yes, a number of people have been posting on social media that the recent storms, such as Cyclone Jasper, were much stronger owing to an alliance between the Bureau of Meteorology and the CSIRO to push the climate action agenda by making these storms worse. Of course, I can’t see it because I’ve been vaccinated, but nonetheless, now that it’s been pointed out to me, I’m happy to surrender any plans I had to get an EV and to buy a Hi-Lux before the legislation that the Albanese government snuck through before Christmas takes away my right to pollute the atmosphere with noxious emissions…

Yes, it does seem strange to me that – after years of telling us that none of our actions could possibly affect the climate – I now find that we have the power to control the weather but I guess that’s probably just my inability to think clearly owing to all those Covid vaccinations which have changed my genetic makeup in ways that I don’t understand owing to my inability to think clearly…

And yes, it does seem strange that Ralph Puppet of the UAP is outraged that the government should bring our noxious emissions into line with the EU because it’s our god-given, 42nd Amendment right to breath in fumes that are definitely no health concern at all even if the legislation refers to noxious emissions because who is to say what is noxious?

But hey, lots of things seem strange to me. As I’ve often said, it’s reasonable not believe everything that the politicians and media tell you, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t believe anything that they tell you. For example, when we’re told that Barnaby’s time as a drought envoy cost over $625,000 we can believe it, but if Scott Morrison were to tell us that it was great value for money because of what it saved by keeping Barnaby away from the bar at Parliament House, then we should be sceptical… Note, sceptical, not dismissing the statement out of hand if He of The Many Ministries said it.

I’ve often thought that some people like to believe in conspiracy theories because they’re strangely reassuring. The idea that there’s a group of people with a secret plan controlling things is far more reassuring than this idea that it’s all as random and chaotic as it appears. Ok, they may be evil and self-serving but it’s less of a worry than the idea that people like Joe and George W and Donald and Boris and Scotty and Barnaby and Liz Truss and Vladimir and Benny and Tony and others are really in charge of things. I mean, it’s scary that Peter Dutton was once in charge of Border Force but it’s even scarier that he is the best person that the Liberals have to lead them in Opposition.

Without a shadowy cabal of people both clever enough to take charge of the world – as well as being clever enough to hide it – then this world is a dangerous place and if you know anything about quantum physics, you’d know that the whole thing could just disappear at any moment… ok, just to be clear when I say, “clever enough to hide it”, I mean from anyone who doesn’t actually go on the internet and find out that it was all exposed by the published minutes of some body or other like the UN… Sort of like that moon landing which was shot in Walt Disney’s backyard in Technicolour as a way of marketing something like Annette Funicello or Uncle Jimmy…

Mm, there’s a whole lot of stuff there that needs unpicking for anyone who used to watch the Mickey Mouse Club

Anyway, I don’t know how we can insure for flood damage when water is a natural thing – like carbon dioxide – and it’s necessary for plant growth – like carbon dioxide – and you can never have too much of a good thing so how can too much carbon dioxide be bad for anyone? It’s like suggesting that noxious emissions are noxious…

Maybe the conspiracy theorists have something going for them, after all!

Mind you, when the nurse asked me whether I’d watched “The Matrix” and when I said that I’ve never understood why we had to learn to multiply matrices in school, she asked if I wanted the blue injection or the red one. Then I asked her if anyone can tell the difference after they’ve agreed to their particular injection of choice…

Why Climate Change Is Not A Problem!
