Australia: Labor’s CO2 TAX On EVERYTHING explained, CO2 Tax for Dummies

CO2 Tax for Dummies

Let's put this into a bit of perspective for laymen!  Graphic Here

ETS is another tax. It is equal to putting up the GST to 12.5% which would be unacceptable and produce an outcry.

Read the following analogy and you will realize the insignificance of carbon dioxide as a weather controller.

Pass on to all in your address book including politicians and may be they will listen to their constituents, rather than vested interests which stand to gain by the ETS.

Here's a practical way to understand Julia Gillard Carbon Pollution Reduction Scheme.

Imagine 1 kilometer of atmosphere and we want to get rid of the carbon pollution in it created by human activity.  Let's go for a walk along it.

The first 770 meters are Nitrogen.

The next 210 meters are Oxygen.

That's 980 meters of the 1 kilometer.  20 meters to go.

The next 10 meters are water vapour.  10 meters left.

9 meters are argon.   Just 1 more meter.

A few gases make up the first bit of that last meter.

The last 38 centimeters of the kilometer - that's carbon dioxide.  A bit over one foot.

97% of that is produced by Mother Nature.  It’s natural.

Out of our journey of one kilometer, there are just 12 millimeters left.  Just over a centimeter - about half an inch.

That’s the amount of carbon dioxide that global human activity puts into the atmosphere.

And of those 12 millimeters Australia puts in .18 of a millimeter.

Less than the thickness of a hair.  Out of a kilometer!

As a hair is to a kilometer - so is Australia 's contribution to what Julia Gillard calls Carbon Pollution.

Imagine Brisbane 's new Gateway Bridge , ready to be opened by Julia Gillard. It's been polished, painted and scrubbed by an army of workers till its 1 kilometer length is surgically clean. Except that Julia Gillard says we have a huge problem, the bridge is polluted - there's a human hair on the roadway. We'd laugh ourselves silly.

There are plenty of real pollution problems to worry about.

It's hard to imagine that Australia 's contribution to carbon dioxide in the world's atmosphere is one of the more pressing ones.  And I can't believe that a new tax on everything is the only way to blow that pesky hair away.

Pass this on quickly while the ETS is being debated in Federal Parliament.

Australia. Sapper Jamie Larcombe laid to rest on Kangaroo Island

 

Sapper Jamie Larcombe farewelled on Kangaroo Island

Michael McGuire
The Advertiser

March 05, 2011

IT felt like too nice a day to say goodbye. The clouds had parted to let the autumn sun shine through, the wind was gentle and faraway surf crashed.

High on a bluff on Kangaroo Island, overlooking a sparkling blue sea, the younger sister of Sapper Jamie Larcombe read a poem farewelling her beloved brother, her voice catching on emotion and tears.

Sapper Larcombe was killed in Afghanistan two weeks ago.

 

 

 

"I miss being your little sister," Emily Larcombe began. "I miss hearing the sound of your voice. I wish I got to say I love you before you were given to the sky."

On a day when the heroism and valour of Sapper Larcombe, of the 1st Combat Engineer Regiment, was commemorated at his funeral service, it was the voice of his family that brought the devastating loss of war home to the 1000 people gathered at Flagstaff Hill on Kangaroo Island. Sapper Larcombe's three sisters all read poems in honour of their brother as his parents Steven and Tricia looked on. The pain and the grief was in their voices and words, and in the hush of those who had gathered to pay their respects to the 23rd Australian to die far from home, fighting a ruthless enemy in Afghanistan.

They came from everywhere to say goodbye. Climbing the hill from Kingscote were the young and the old, the workers and the retired, those who never knew Jamie Larcombe and those who'd known him forever.

There was Prime Minister Julia Gillard, Opposition Leader Tony Abbott, Defence Minister Stephen Smith and Acting Premier John Rau.

It was a sad and solemn day but there were moments of lightness and laughter when family friend Ted Speed delivered the eulogy for Sapper Larcombe.

There were old tales of horse rides gone wrong, motorbikes that had crashed, injuries to sisters.

Mr Speed spoke of the gratitude that Sapper Larcombe's long-time girlfriend Rhiannon Penhall had been able to speak to her boyfriend less than 24 hours before he was killed. He told the life story of a boy who became a man who was widely loved and respected. A fanatical Crows supporter, a keen fisherman who always got seasick, a member of the Country Fire Service who lived by the motto "Give it a Go".

His hero was Crows' legend Andrew McLeod. Larcombe sported McLeod's number 23 when playing for the Western Districts Football Club and Mr Speed noted the irony that Sapper Larcombe was the "23rd Australian to pay the ultimate price in Afghanistan". "Jamie left me in no doubt that he fought for what he believed in and he believed in what he fought for," Mr Speed said. "He was courageous, he was strong and a caring young man."

Sapper Larcombe grew up in the small community of Parndana. Fittingly, it was established as a soldiers' settlement after World War II and features the Soldiers Settlement Museum. All his schooling was done in Parndana and he graduated from the local area school in 2007.

He joined the army in 2008 and he was killed four months into his first tour of Afghanistan. Brigade Commander Gus McLauchlin told the crowd that sappers such as Larcombe were the heart and soul of the regiment. Often dirty, regularly cheeky, most likely to be found in the pub, the sappers of the 1st Combat Engineering Regiment also took on the most dangerous jobs the army had to offer.

The regiment had a motto that said simply: "Follow the Sapper".

On the day he was killed, Sapper Larcombe was at the head of a mission that was forging into the Taliban strongholds in the Mirabad Valley, not far from Tarin Kowt, to establish forward bases for Australian and Afghan forces . His job was to clear improvised explosive devices from the way ahead to make the route safe for others to follow.

Sapper Larcombe was doing his job when he was cut down by Taliban gunfire in an ambush. As Anzac Day approaches, Brigadier McLauchlin reminded us that: "He shall not grow old as those that are left behind grow old. Age will not weary him, or the years condemn.

 

"Whoever reads the Ode this year is talking about Jamie Larcombe. We will remember him just as he is for the rest of our lives."

Family Background
Savouring peace behind the scarf
Paul Kent From
The Daily Telegraph
September 25, 2010 12:00AM
WHAT she finds ... is beauty.
A serenity, a peacefulness in her life that wasn't there before.
"When I put the scarf on," she says, "I have never felt so beautiful in my whole, entire life."
What a feeling it must be.
A young woman, bright-eyed and true, brought up in the backyards of Australia. It was a childhood of touch football and hockey, of summer afternoons and big family Christmases.
Typical, you might call it.
And now she is a young mum, with four bouncing kids, and a husband and a life she nearly missed - and every day she prays and gives thanks for it. And all because she is now a Muslim.
It hits you like it hits everybody when they learn Rebecca Kay's choice.
Just last weekend a friend from her former hometown of Kiama came to visit her at home in Bankstown. She noticed the scarf and couldn't help but ask.
"But you're Australian," she said. "I know," she said.
"But why are you Muslim for?" was the response.
For many traditional Australians, the two are mutually exclusive. You cannot be both.
It is part of the misunderstanding about Islam, muddied by extremists and ignorance and all the very worst behaviour there is in all of us but which we often refuse to admit.
What is true is that fewer and fewer Australians are converting to Islam. When the planes went into the towers on September 11, 2001, Islam and the world changed forever.
What official figures there are for Australian converts, held by the Muslim Women's Association, are closely guarded and, even then, not entirely accurate.
"They can do it [convert] without even going to the mosque," says Keysar Trad, a Muslim spokesman.
"They can do it in a private ceremony at home. They can do it anywhere.
"But one thing I have found is even though there are a lot of people saying in the last nine years that there's a lot more interest in Islam, there were more people [converting] before we got so much publicity.
"The private interest changed to 'Can we tolerate Muslims' rather than 'Is this a way of life for us?'."
For Rebecca, the easy explanation is that her interest changed when she met her husband, Abdul Latf Darwiche, known as Albert.
Not that it changed quickly. Or easily. She is not the kind who does it the easy way.
From a family of high achievers - her mother Marie holds three world Masters records, her father John also represents Australia in Masters competition - she was similarly strong-willed.
She lived the young life, which is one of excess.
"The path I was going down before wasn't a great path," she says.
"I was a typical Australian that liked going out and drinking five nights a week.
"It kind of gets depressing over time."
For Marie and John, unable to curb their daughter's behaviour, it grew increasingly worrying. Until she met Albert and began asking his sisters about Islam.
"I give all my gratification to Albert for putting her back on the right road," Marie says. "It works both ways."
They met during Ramadan and, for Rebecca, the beauty of the religion came at night, when the sun was down and the family ate and drank together, and she saw the bond in their sacrifice.
She began questioning Albert's sisters, interested in the religion she knew so little about. They married in 2003 and, slowly, as is her way, Rebecca waited until the following year before telling Albert she wanted to convert.
It was done without ceremony, because, as she says, "God knows".
Three years later she went to a girlfriend's house, ready to begin wearing the hijab.
"My husband isn't fussed if I wear the scarf or not," she says. "I've been wearing it for three years. I feel that it's the next spiritual step for me. That it's the next decision."
Says Marie: "I get a lot of people look at me strangely here in Wollongong when I say my daughter is married to a Muslim and she's a Muslim and wears a scarf. I say she's still my daughter."
She has blossomed into a wonderful mother, says her mum, and now is part of a wider, wonderful family.
This is her religion.
One for which some want the burqa banned because they aren't like us.
Well, some are.
Bankstown Independent candidate Rebecca Kay married to Darwiche family member

ELECTIONS
8 FEB 11 @ 06:00AM BY JOANNE VELLA
Bankstown Express

A BANKSTOWN State Election candidate married to a member of the Darwiche family has urged people not to judge her or her relatives.
Rebecca Kay, 28, is the wife of Albert Darwiche, the older brother of 37-year-old drug boss Abdul, who was gunned down outside a Bass Hill service station on March 14, 2009. On October 30, 2003, Ahmad Fahda was shot 30 times at a service station in Punchbowl Rd, Punchbowl.
Ms Kay denied the Darwiches had an ongoing feud with the Fahda family. “I don’t feel there is a problem,” she said.
“Their (the Darwiches’) reputation exceeds them.”
The mother-of-four says she was driven to stand as an independent to keep the major parties “honest”.
Ms Kay is also prepared to take part in the Canterbury-Bankstown Express forum at Bankstown Sports Club on March 2 - unlike her Liberal opponent Bill Chahine and East Hills contender Glenn Brookes. “It’s the whole issue of Labor and Liberal,” she said.
“I hope to win but realistically I’m there to keep them honest. I want to see them fight for the seat.”
Formerly a loyal Labor voter, Ms Kay named Bankstown’s high-rise developments as one of her chief concerns for the electorate and accused Labor of being detached to the community’s needs.
Ms Kay said she had strong support with voters being a Muslim of Anglo-Australian background. The Wollongong-raised Bankstown resident converted to Islam eight years ago when she married Mr Darwiche.
“I’m a real person. I have a mortgage. I’m a mother. I know how it is to live in Bankstown.”

Green Valley police station surrounded after confrontation over 'Facebook slurs'
Chelsea White and Rosemary Lentini
The Daily Telegraph
March 03, 2011 1:30PM

A CONFRONTATION between parents and police following racial slurs allegedly posted on a high school student's Facebook page descended into a police station being put into lockdown yesterday.
The incident began outside Hoxton Park High School, after the school closed yesterday.
Police were forced to use capsicum spray on some of the adults involved as stunned students watched on.
Six men and women aged between 26 and 50 were arrested.
Some of those involved said the incident began when a Muslim student was attacked by a mob of year 9 school girls.
The alleged victim of the mob attack claimed she was bashed by about 10 "Australian girls" at the school and the attack was racially motivated.
"I don't know why they chose me. I'm feeling really hurt and worried about what happened," she said.
She said the attack followed anti-Islamic slurs allegedly made on a fellow student's Facebook page.
Parents said this was not the first time such attacks had occurred, and some gathered at the school  following the alleged attack on the girl.
The group of arrested people was taken to Green Valley police station.
But rumours then spread, also on Facebook, suggesting the fight was racially motivated and that police had removed the veil of a Muslim woman during the protest that followed.
An angry mob descended on the police station, with a witness saying hundreds of youths threw projectiles at officers.
The police helicopter, dog squad and riot officers were believed to have been called in. Police declined to comment on the alleged attack.
Brawl outside school sparks mob protest
Daily Telegraph
March 03, 2011 10:44AM
A CROWD descended on a southwestern Sydney police station after six people were arrested for fighting outside a high school.
Six men and women, aged from 26 to 50, were arrested outside Hoxton Park High School at Hinchinbrook about 3pm yesterday and charged
with various offences including affray.
Police used capsicum spray on the group and a number of officers were injured during the confrontation.
Hours later, about 8pm, a group of about 40 supporters entered Green Valley police station where the men and women were being held.
The supporters were told to leave when they became agitated and abusive.
The group then congregated outside the station but left a short time later.
The six arrested people have been granted bail and are due to appear at Liverpool Local Court on April 8.

Emotions run high as playground fight leads to parents brawl and invasion of police station

March 3, 2011 - 9:59AM
A group of 40 "emotional" people crowded into a Sydney police station after officers arrested six people over a fight outside a high school
about a playground dispute, police say.
Police said they were forced to use capsicum spray on the group outside Hoxton Park High School on Wilson Road, Hinchinbrook yesterday
afternoon.
Some officers were allegedly injured in the confrontation and six men and women, aged between 26 and 50, were arrested and taken to Green
Valley police station.
A large group of people later came into the police station, upset over the arrests, police said.
Chief Inspector Darrin Wilson said the scuffle outside the high school was over an earlier fight between students in the playground.
''That was a result of parents being unhappy with their daughter being assaulted in school grounds earlier in the day,'' he said.
He said the group were emotional, not angry.
"I guess it's just like any group of people, your family and friends get arrested, you become emotional," he said. "They took offence to us
arresting them."
Chief Inspector Wilson could not confirm reports a Muslim woman's veil had been ripped off by officers outside the high school.
"I've heard those rumours and I can't confirm them. Police were the victims in this and they acted accordingly."
The group were asked to leave the station, but gathered outside before finally leaving.
The six people arrested outside the school were charged with offences including affray, intimidation, assault police, resist arrest and
offensive language.
They were bailed and will appear in Liverpool Local Court on April 8.
