The Conversation is a Marxist leaning news outlet. Nevertheless, sometimes it is good to read an article from them just to know what the Marxists are up to. Here in Australia the Labor Party is in charge of the nation. Their agenda seems to be a Capitalist/Marxist (CCP) way of doing things. On the Labor Party’s agenda is to ruin the electricity grid via renewables. These renewables require huge amounts of tax dollar subsidies that will have to be paid for by future tax paying Australians. Presently, China is the world’s largest producer of solar panels and I have heard they have a glut of them which they are selling to Australia and other nations at basement prices. Well that doesn’t defer the Labor Party from throwing ONE BILLION tax payer dollars at a solar manufacturing company here in Australia in spite of the glut of Chinese solar panels!
Now, I have ranted long enough so here is that article from The Conversation telling us what the CCP/Marxist Labor Party of Australia is doing for Australia in manufacturing. This will not end well.
Renewables in this present day will NEVER do the job of providing a nation with 24/7 reliable energy. I came across this on one of the energy providers web sites here in Australia. They are paying customers to shut off appliances during certain times because renewables cannot keep up with the demand. Here is what they say “Due to the intermittent nature of renewable energy, there may be times when renewable energy will not be able to cover high demand periods. Currently, fast acting generators like gas and diesel plants are used as backups during these times. If demand response is used effectively, there will be less need to use fossil fuels as backup, reducing the production of climate changing carbon emissions.” https://www.agl.com.au/campaigns/peak-energy-rewards?cide=edm%7CC100935&deliveryName=DM386561
This worship of the earth is a religion known as, Gaia, which companies have adopted because the political Masters have completely swallowed the religion and are serving at the Gaia altar! The company such as the one above has an incentive to obey the political rulers with a hope they can survive the madness in the political rush toward solving a make believe problem.
What is this worship of the earth, https://gaianism.org/what-is-gaianism/. It states “Put simply Gaianism is a religious philosophy that grants the living Earth (Gaia) its rightful place at the center. Humans are not the pinnacle of evolution but just a small (and not necessarily essential) part of the living Earth.”
Do you see, Gaiainism is anti-God, anti-Bible and anti-human? The Bible says man is made in the image of God. NOT the earth, NOT the animals or plants but MAN! Man is the pinnacle of God’s creation. God also said in Genesis 1:27,28 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. 28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
Man will never destroy God. These earth worshipping men seek to eliminate anything to do with the Creator but someday they and all mankind will stand before God. What each individual person has done with the second person of the Triune God will determine what God does with that person. One verse is sufficient to close this short article and that verse is Romans 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved!
Our political climate scamming zealots are taking us back to the 1950’s when we did not have the comforts we have come to enjoy but due to their stupidity and love for renewables we must forsake these comforts.
‘Fury has erupted after residents of a Sydney unit complex were asked to turn off their airconditioners overnight.
Placed inside the elevator of the 18-level apartment building, the letter states that airconditioning can only be used “during the following times”.
“Weekdays 7am to 10pm, weekends and public holidays 8am to 10pm,” it reads.
“At other times than this, please turn off your air conditioners, especially after 10:00 PM every day.”
The person who posted the note said she had never seen anything like this in the 10 years of living in the building. Photo: Facebook
One resident who has lived in the 1960s building for 10 years said it was the first time she had heard of such a request.
“Can anyone please let me know if this is legal? Can they actually force people to not run their own AC units?” she asked in a renters Facebook group.
The request drew the ire of many other renters.
“Anyone else feel like we are in a Nanny State?” one person said.
“To be honest with 30°c nights they can pry my aircon from my cold dead heads,” another said.
Others pointed out that it may not be a request solely from strata management, with local councils enforcing noise pollution restrictions that affect airconditioners.
Councils have rules around when noisy items can be used. Here is the City of Sydney’s list.
City of Sydney, Inner West, and Penrith councils are among the local governments requiring domestic airconditioners to be turned off from 10pm to 7am during the week and until 8am on the weekend – the same time requested on the letter.
Inner West Council recommends residents and developers purchase high-quality airconditioners that won’t cause a noise nuisance to neighbours.
“Even if you’ve been told that it complies with noise requirements, it doesn’t mean it’s going to suit every location all the time,” its website reads.
Some renters mused that the building’s developers may have not opted to purchase quieter machines.
“I think the strata builders got a bit cheap and installed less expensive aircons and therefore they are too loud. Bet if they had decent ones, the tenants wouldn’t have to suffer hot nights because of the noise,” one person wrote.
“Boral boss Vik Bansal says spiking electricity prices and Australia’s patchy energy transition are prompting the country’s biggest cement, concrete and asphalt producer to temporarily halt manufacturing each day, leaving thousands of staff idle.
Net Zero and a rush into unreliable renewables is what got Australia into this mess. Next winter ought to be fun with these people running the show!!
‘Labor Cabinet ministers have slammed the gas companies for focusing on “maximising their profits” and halting major supply contracts following the government’s landmark response to soaring power prices.
The September Heads of Agreement deal which saw the gas companies commit to diverting all additional uncontracted LNG to the domestic market could be under threat.
In a shock response to the government’s $12/gigajoule cap on gas prices, Shell has paused its deal to sell 50 petajoules of LNG to energy providers as it “assesses the impact” of the proposed reforms.
The massive gas giant’s Queensland arm, QGC, was in the middle of an extensive tender process to contract the LNG for 2023/24.
“Pausing the EOI process was not an option we wanted to take, however, QGC needs to consider whether the design of the current EOI will meet the new regulatory requirements, including the 2023 price cap and the proposed mandatory Code,” a Shell spokesperson said.

But the government has unleashed on Shell and other gas companies threatening to withhold supply to the system.
Energy Minister Chris Bowen said while the company was focused on boosting profits, the government would “protect the Australian people”.
“Gas companies want high profits at the expense of industries at the expense of workers and industries,” Mr Bowen said on Tuesday.
“Shell is one of the most profitable companies in Australia and we don’t mind them making profits in their … gas exports, they can make as much profit as they want doing that, but Australians have a right to this gas at a fair price.
“The government will be acting in the national interest not in the interest of Shell, not in the interest of any gas company, in the interest of every Australian.”
The cost of gas has soared since the war in Ukraine, with the spot price hitting as high as $27/gigajoule compared to typical pre-pandemic prices hovering around $6/gigajoule.

As a result of the more than 140 per cent increase in the gas price year-on-year, industry giants Woodside has seen the share price jump by 57 per cent.
Fellow competitor Origin Energy has also seen its share price soar by more than 44 per cent this year and was another signatory to the September Heads of Agreement through its part ownership Queensland-based gas company APLNG.
Industry Minister Ed Husic warned the gas companies against pulling out of the landmark supply agreement as he questioned their claims over project sustainability.
“A lot of these players have made extraordinary profits, so, when these firms are making claims about the viability of projects, this is about them trying to maintain their profits in extraordinary times,” Mr Husic told ABC Radio National.
“For (energy companies) to claim this is a shock, or to threaten the nation, effectively, by saying they’ll walk away from a heads of agreement they walked into, I think they will need to consider their steps very carefully.”
Oil and gas company Woodside Energy joined Shell in warning the government its new caps on fossil fuels would create an “environment of uncertainty” which will see investment rapidly drop.

In a statement on Tuesday, Chief Executive Meg O’Neill said the industry’s ongoing investment was “crucial” to support the government’s renewable drive and added the government’s proposal failed to address falling supply.
“We need to unlock gas supply now. For example, Woodside has been looking at options to increase supply, including through new LNG import terminals, exploration spending and further development on the east coast,” Ms O’Neill said.
“Unfortunately, the proposed market intervention will make it very difficult for industry to economically invest to increase supply.
“No one wants to see energy shortages and gas rationing. We must develop a comprehensive, longer-term solution that addresses gas supply and reliability.”
The Albanese Government’s proposal to cap gas price, provide indirect energy bill relief and strengthen the consumer watchdog’s price monitoring capabilities will hit an emergency session of Parliament on Thursday.
Every year I purchase a new Diary calendar for my desk. Last year I was able to purchase the type I personally like at one of the stores here in town. This year not so. So, online I went looking for the type of calendar that I like. I found one and ordered it. It arrived the other day and after unwrapping it the first thing I noticed was where it was made.
Now, I am saying all this because the politicians are heading Australia and the West into slavery. They are consumed with CLIMATE CHANGE and RENEWABLES that there is very little made in our own countries. Walk through any hardware store and see where most of the products are made!
One doesn’t have to be a Climate scientist or a scientist at all to know that this climate change mantra is a religion. Just as evolution is a fact for most so climate change is becoming a fact as well! Neither is true but the masses who are too busy working or whatever else they can do to forget what is truly happening go right along with the LIES!
The truth is that God the Creator is in control and told those who would read and believe that While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease Genesis 8:22. Just as Cain couldn’t physically do harm to God he took out his hatred on his own brother Abel. That’s what these anti-God politicians and corporate woksters are doing with this climate scam. They have installed themselves as GOD! They can make laws that will change the climate.
Well, someday there will be a REAL CLIMATE CHANGE!
Revelation 6:12-17 And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood; 13 And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind.14 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:17 For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?
My advice to these political despots and the corporate wokesters is to respond by faith to what we are told in John 3:36 He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.
