My Austrian hire car suggested I reset the trip, that I might like to adjust the seat, that depressing the accelerator before moving off wasn’t environmentally friendly, went completely berserk when I reversed through a gap with two feet of clearance either side and once I got going, that fourth gear would be better than the second gear I was in at 15kph
On coming to a half and switching off the engine it told me to ensure we took all our belongings and to make sure we exited safely.

Top doctors make please to British parliament to stop all covid vaccinations
https://www.infowars.com/posts/top-doctors-beg-uk-parliament-to-remove-all-covid-vaccines-from-market-now/
I must say that here in the UK the desire for such vaccinations had substantially diminished but not completely disappeared

“Top doctors make please to British parliament to stop all covid vaccinations”
Gosh I wish I’d seen that before getting vaccinated again a couple of weeks ago. But on the plus side I have had no adverse reactions from any of my vaccinations and have avoided Covid-19. Perhaps the vaccinations elsewhere are different from those in Australia.

You may have been lucky enough to have received your jabs from vials with inactive mRNA, after all did it come out of a container that had been held at – 70 to – 100 degrees depending on who you read.?

Mr. b: Here in the US, headline says dozens dead from salmonella outbreak. Dr. Fauci retired, so we may be spared a repeat regime telling us to lockdown and shelter-in-place (with tainted fruit) until the new salmonella vax is issued. Our gov’t betters could go on TV to explain that we can’t know where the fruit came from (maybe bats!!), that’s looking “backward”; nor should we try home remedies (like not eating the fruit)- that sounds like disinformation!
Serious comment- the pneumonia outbreak in China probably leaves Fauci daydreaming about an outbreak here, so he can ride in on white stallion to save us.

Canada Limiting Oil and Gas Industry Emission
Canada has announced a plan to use a cap-and-trade system to impose greenhouse gas emission limits on its oil and gas industry. Under the “draft framework,” Canada will issue emissions allowances to oil and gas producers, which will be capped at levels between 35% and 38% below 2019 levels, beginning in 2030. The government will then continue to lower allowances in stages until the industry reaches net zero by 2050.
Ottawa plans to finish drafting regulations by next year, with a final plan in place by 2026. Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault called the plan “ambitious” but “practical.” “It considers the global demand for oil and gas, and the importance of the sector in Canada’s economy, and sets a limit that is strict, but achievable,” Guilbeault said. This is all part of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s plan for Canada to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050, which he announced during his election in 2021.
Critics state that the timeframe is simply not achievable for the world’s fourth-largest oil producer and fifth-largest natural gas producer. Federal Energy Minister Jonathan Wilkinson admitted that the government is uncertain how they will implement these measures without shutting down production entirely. A failed execution “would essentially make us poorer in Canada and make our American friends or folks in Saudi Arabia or elsewhere richer,” he stated.
Globalists everywhere are making lofty pledges on the heels of the COP28 summit. The only rush comes when attempting to meet these arbitrary targets. The only reason governments are targeting 2030 and 2050 is because they were directed to do so by Klaus Schwab and the globalists at the World Economic Forum. It will be interesting to see the final plans for this idea that sacrifices Canada’s economic health for the climate change psyops.

Alberta, because of the fossil fuel industry, claims it disproportionately contributes to the federal Canada Pension Plan. They are now proposing to exit and run their own plan. This is possible because Quebec opted out many years ago, although I think the QPP gets federal subsidies. There is going to be fireworks if Alberta goes ahead.

Here’s an interesting report.
“The Global Warming Policy Foundation has today published a quantified estimate of the full cost of financing the tax credits on offer to the major green energy industries under President Biden’s “Inflation Reduction Act”, adding to the public understanding of the economic hazards and financial risks the US economy faces as a result of this scheme.”
“Study estimates that the IRA will cost US taxpayers an average of about $2.3m per job per year.”

Some sanity in the USA
The House of Representatives on Dec. 6 voted to pass a bill that will block a proposed rule by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to effectively mandate that most cars produced in the United States be fully electric by 2032.
Republicans have rallied against the proposed standards, which they say are unrealistic and threaten to undermine consumer freedom—as well as to increase U.S. dependence on China.
Around 90 percent of the rare earth minerals used to create electric vehicles (EVs) are sourced from the top U.S. adversary.
Chrissy Bowen will have a hissy fit when he hears about this!
EVs are now backing up on dealer lots as few Americans want them.

Looks like the senate will pass this too, but Biden says he will veto it so sadly no go.

More covid happenings via Covid and Coffee newsletter
“Last evening, at the suggestion of an alert commenter, I tweeted yesterday’s complete segment on the Nonsense Protein study. I was skeptical whether Twitter would appreciate the post, since it was waaay overlong for a tweet. But it surprised me by going kind of viral (for a C&C tweet, anyway). Here are the stats as of early this morning.”
Then
“Behold three more preprint studies that are very difficult for the jabs, especially in light of the Nonsense Protein study’s findings.”
“Each of the three studies reports on a different search for a correlation between vaccination and various adverse events. In a sense, this triple-study reminds me of the leaked New Zealand data, except instead of just the data, the whistleblowers reported their findings with details and statistics.”

There is some lovely stuff in there! Well, not if you’re vaccinated with mRNA though..
” In February, Kevin McKernan brilliantly discovered unexpected DNA plasmid contamination in the mRNA shots.
Kevin equally-brilliantly discovered something hiding in plain sight that apparently every other scientist on the planet — including the FDA — somehow missed: the mRNA shots unexpectedly include parts of an oncogenic simian virus (associated with cancer).
In August, I reported on a study showing the way spike protein (and thus the shots) cause autoimmune problems by unexpectedly binding to C4 immune cells.
Then yesterday, in this newest study, we learned about the fourth major, unexpected problem with the jabs, which goes to their very design: random protein production (by frameshifting the ribosome 25-30% of the time).”
The detailed article about the frameshifting by their synthetic uracil was followed up today with the Korean studies on over 2.2million vacinees looking at the common auto-immune soft tissue side effects. Safe and well-tested would be the biggest lie of the century!

UNITED NATIONS July 27, 2023 —
U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said Thursday that it is not too late to “stop the worst” of the climate crisis, but only with “dramatic, immediate” action.
“The era of global warming has ended; the era of global boiling has arrived,” Guterres told reporters at U.N. headquarters in New York, where the temperature outside was approaching 86 degrees Fahrenheit before 10 a.m. and set to hit 91 degrees Fahrenheit later in the day.

So the answer is for everybody to move out of New York in summer.
I wonder if the Climate Cult Members are trying to sell their Antarctic blocks they bought back in 2004? (When Antactica would be the only inhabitable place).
70
That has the sound of a business opportunity. Australia claims 5.9E6sq.km of Antarctica. Not much less than mainland Australia. Rather than settling new immigrants on the mainland, offer them visas on the basis that they settle in Antactica where they will not have to worry about global boiling- at least in their lifetime. They would need to be rugged up though until they can build their igloos – maybe also stay rugged up inside their igloos.
Climate modellers are beginning to make the connection between record September ocean surface temperature and record snowfall. In fact, they are now claiming they have always predicted that. It is clear to me that the NH oceans have only just started to warm and have a while to go before the snowfall overtakes the snow melt then a drop in sea level by 20m over the next 9,000 years. It all means that a lot more of the NH will look like Greenland. Maybe Antarctica will look attractive when the ice mountains are forming in the NH.
90
RickWill;
Personally I have nothing against most new immigrants and rather than annoy them, I suggest we think about the difficulties from overseas legal and UN objections who would jam the courts for years. The answer I believe is send Australians there, and I have a little list of people who never would be missed (many from Canberra or inner-city electorates).

“Australia’s largest business lender has said it is inevitable banks will charge higher interest rates for businesses that do not have credible plans to reduce their emissions footprint. NAB’s group executive for business and private banking, Andrew Irvine, told a Trans-Tasman Business Circle event on Thursday that small and medium-sized companies would need to begin measuring and then reducing their carbon footprint if they wanted cheaper finance.
“If your abatement is less than average, your interest rate will be higher than if your abatement is higher than average. Our risk as a bank will be impacted by how green your business is. It’s not to say we won’t bank you, but the cost of borrowing will be affected.””

Old news roundup: Whistleblower Calls for WEF Founder Klaus Schwab to be Arrested Over “Crimes Against Humanity”
The days of World Economic Forum (WEF) co-founder Klaus Schwab may be numbered.
Pascal Najadi, the son of fellow WEF co-founder Hussain Najadi, is speaking out as a whistleblower against the current top dog at the globalist foundation, accusing him and other leaders of “crimes against humanity.”
Najadi says the crimes of Schwab and his buddies are so great that there needs to be an immediate arrest of both Schwab and other WEF executives such as Bill Gates, as well as the leaders of the World Health Organization (WHO), Big Pharma, and Big Tech.
In partnership with Schwab, Najadi’s father started the WEF back in 1971. He quit a decade later, citing disgust with Schwab’s dystopian vision for the future of non-elite humanity.
Pascal Najadi is also upset that he and his mother were both tricked into getting “vaccinated” for the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19), a fake “pandemic” that was aggressively pushed by the WEF and others.
According to Najadi, he and his mother are now dying from the injections, which he says are “poison” that was pushed on the world by the likes of Schwab.

Old news roundup: WEF uploading your mind to a computer is decades away
Imagine brain scanning technology improves greatly in the coming decades, to the point that we can observe how each individual neuron talks to other neurons.
Then, imagine we can record all this information to create a simulation of someone’s brain on a computer.
This is the concept behind mind uploading – the idea that we may one day be able to transition a person from their biological body to a synthetic hardware.
The feasibility of mind uploading rests on three core assumptions.
First is the technology assumption – the idea that we will be able to develop mind uploading technology within the coming decades.
Second is the artificial mind assumption – the idea that a simulated brain would give rise to a real mind
and third is the survival assumption – the idea that the person created in the process is really “you”. Only then does mind uploading become a way for you to live on.

Mass surveillance: Apple Reveals how Government Used ‘Push Notifications’ to Spy on You in 2020
In a chilling revelation that feels all too familiar, Apple has confirmed that governments are using push notifications for the surveillance of users — an imposition on personal freedoms and a glaring example of state overreach, reports Reclaim the Net.
This unsettling news was disclosed in response to Senator Ron Wyden’s urgent communication to the Department of Justice. Wyden highlighted that foreign officials have been pressuring technology companies for data to track smartphones via apps that send notifications.
These apps, he noted, put tech companies in a pivotal role to assist in governmental monitoring of app usage. Senator Wyden urged the Department of Justice to alter or revoke any existing policies that restrict public discourse on the surveillance of push notifications.
In a reaction to this, Apple stated to Reuters that Wyden’s letter presented them with an opportunity to divulge more information about government monitoring of push notifications. The tech giant clarified, “In this case, the federal government prohibited us from sharing any information. Now that this method has become public we are updating our transparency reporting to detail these kinds of requests.”

Low- & non-alcoholic beer may be a breeding ground for food-borne bugs
A new study has found that compared to regular-strength beer, low- and non-alcoholic beers may be a breeding ground for food-borne pathogens like E. coli and Salmonella, which can be introduced during manufacturing, storage, or pouring.
Driven by a rise in wellness culture, there’s been a shifting trend in the global drinks industry towards producing low- and non-alcoholic beverages, including beer. In the US, UK, and Australia, brewers can label a beer ‘non-alcoholic’ if it contains less than 0.5% alcohol by volume (ABV).
There are obvious benefits to drinking beer with no or low alcohol content; it contains vitamins and minerals, and studies have shown that, compared to regular beer, it has cardiovascular benefits. However, a new study by researchers at Cornell University has found that removing alcohol from beer may create the perfect environment for the growth of food-borne pathogens introduced during manufacturing, storage, or pouring.
“When you remove the alcohol, it’s really no longer a traditional beer,” said Randy Worobo, one of the study’s co-authors. “We suspected that food-borne pathogens would be able to grow without the presence of alcohol. We were correct. At that point, you must consider nonalcoholic beer like food and make sure that all parameters are met guaranteeing product safety.”
Traditional beer contains a number of factors that prevent pathogen growth. Ethanol concentration, bitter acids from hops, low pH, high amounts of carbon dioxide, low oxygen, and a lack of nutritive substances all contribute to keeping beer pathogen-free.

Pretty much all Windows and Linux computers are vulnerable to this new cyberattack
Cybersecurity researchers from Binarly have found a flaw that they claim affects virtually every Windows and Linux-powered machine in use today.
The flaw, dubbed LogoFAIL, allows threat actors to execute malicious code on the endpoint in a way that renders practically every antivirus or endpoint protection tool out there – useless.
Regardless of the computer you have, whenever you boot it up, you’ll first see a logo from the device’s manufacturer. While the logo is being displayed, the Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) is still running. UEFI, the researchers claim, has been vulnerable to roughly two dozen flaws for years now. By chaining together and exploiting the flaw, an attacker could replace this image with a different one, capable of hosting malicious code.
The image can be identical to the original one, in order not to arouse any suspicion. Still, UEFI will read and execute the code hosted there. And given the fact that the code is being executed so early in the boot stage, no security features or antivirus programs will flag it.
Secure Boot, Intel’s Boot Guard, and other similar solutions designed to protect from bootkit infections are practically useless here. These two dozen vulnerabilities have collectively been named LogoFAIL.
The devices deemed vulnerable to LogoFAIL include the entire x64 and ARM CPU ecosystem – UEIF suppliers AMI, Insyde, Phoenix, device manufacturers Lenovo, Dell, HP, CPU devices Intel, and AMD. Patches are already available, but they differ from manufacturer to manufacturer. Users are advised to find the corresponding advisory and learn how to patch the vulnerability up.

Pharma exec say most drugs don’t work on most people; The vast majority of drugs – more than 90 per cent – only work in 30 or 50 per cent of the people.
A top executive with Great Britain’s biggest drug company at the time, GlaxoSmithKline, stated that most prescription drugs don’t work on most people.
The admission was made by Dr. Allen Roses, worldwide vice-president of genetics at GlaxoSmithKline, at a scientific conference in 2003 and not intended for a consumer audience. But the frank statement made its way into popular news and grabbed headlines.
According to one news article, “It is an open secret within the drugs industry that most of its products are ineffective in most patients but this is the first time that such a senior drugs boss has gone public.”
Considering the trillions upon trillions that governments and individuals spend on prescription medicine, it’s a remarkable fact. It means most of the money we spend on drugs is utterly wasted while patients are needlessly exposed to side effects. In other words, most aren’t helped by the medicine they take, but stand to be hurt by it.
At the scientific conference in 2003, Roses cited data on the effectiveness of classes of drugs in real patients. The data showed “drugs for migraines, for osteoporosis, and arthritis work in about half the patients.” The numbers were even worse for cancer drugs. They worked in only one in four patients.

Korean studies back the NZ whistleblower – a tsunami of health issues
The Korean National Health Insurance Service tabulates health data of the whole population, including vaccination status, which allows researchers to compare the ongoing health outcomes of the vaccinated with the unvaccinated. Precisely the information our government is hiding from independent researchers and public scrutiny—comparative data, which we have been requesting they release.
So what have they found in Korea? Researchers have released a preprint paper entitled “Hematologic abnormalities after COVID-19 vaccination: A large Korean population-based cohort study“. Haematologic diseases are diseases of the blood and blood forming organs. The researchers randomly selected half of the population of Seoul (around 4.2 million people) aged 20 and above and identified people who had received treatment for a range of blood disorders. They excluded people who had a history of blood disorders prior to the study period and then compared the rate of development of blood disorders among the vaccinated and unvaccinated over a three month period.

I was surprised yesterdays hot weather was announced on the ABC as a heat wave. I am sure a heatwave in the past was defined as 3 or 4 days of intense heat not 1 day.

A comment in The Australian today pointed to a heatwave in Sydney in 1939, reaching 45 C.

The late 1800s weather station record data recorded at the Bourke NSW Post Office and Telegraph Station was one of the hottest heatwave periods that BoM ignore, it was before 1910.

Back in the 1960s heatwaves lasted for weeks… then downgraded to 5 days… then downsized to 3… now, due to methane or will o’ the wisps or the Russkies, ONE DAY is enough to shatter all records since the fall of Babylon (or was it Jericho, those dang trumpets can get real annoying).

That is not a heat wave – This is a heat wave! (apologies to Paul Hogan)
A series of significant heatwaves were recorded across the country from November 2012 through to March 2013.
The first of these occurred in late spring, in the final week of November.
Temperatures reached record highs for this time of year in many areas, particularly northern Victoria and southern inland New South Wales. A new record was also set for the highest spring temperature in Victoria.
The heatwave contributed to an unusually warm three months, with spring 2012 Australia’s third-warmest spring average maximum temperature.
The heat continued into the summer period, with an extended nationwide heatwave that began in the west just after Christmas and peaked during the first two weeks of January 2013.
The start of autumn was marked by a third major heatwave event. This was especially pronounced in the southeastern states where numerous cities and towns including Melbourne, Mt Gambier and Launceston set records for consecutive hot days and warm nights (see Special climate statement 45).

Mid North Coast NSW BoM forecast severe heatwave, red banner warning again on my phone weather app, and still claimed 31 deg C until minutes ago changed to 29 deg C, but in my 4WD at a beach in the shade of trees was 23 deg C and driving home 27 deg C.

Update: Mass deaths of elephant seals recorded as bird flu sweeps across the Antarctic
Researchers warn of one of ‘largest ecological disasters of modern times’ if the highly contagious disease reaches penguin colonies.
Bird flu is spreading in the Antarctic, with hundreds of elephant seals found dead, and fears it could bring “one of the largest ecological disasters of modern times” if the highly contagious virus reaches the remote penguin populations.
The virus was first reported among brown skua on Bird Island, off South Georgia. Since then, researchers and observers have reported mass deaths of elephant seals, as well as increased deaths of fur seals, kelp gulls and brown skua at several other sites. Cases have been confirmed 900 miles (1,500km) west of South Georgia, among southern fulmar on the Falkland Islands.
Dr Meagan Dewar, chair of the Antarctic Wildlife Health Network, told the Guardian that the situation among southern elephant seals was concerning. “At some sites we’ve had mass mortalities, where we are getting into the hundreds,” she said. “There is a likely chance it could be avian influenza.”
So far tests have confirmed bird flu deaths at eight sites across the Antarctic, and the disease is suspected with confirmation from tests still pending at 20 further sites where animals have died.

I’m afraid the latest global wave of bird flu has begun, which I observed weeks ago in the UK/EU, but I’ve just been watching it to see how it develops.
It’s spreading across the EU rapidly as the primary outbreak source, but swarming across Asia, the USA, South Africa and now Australia.
Looks to be worse than the last one.

I have a hunch some disease from China will wipe us all out one day. That place is a cesspit.

The CCP is about to crumble and replaced by Western ideas, it should be possible to clean up the cesspit.
Over thousands of years China’s pandemics have been disastrous for Europe.

“The CCP is about to crumble and replaced by Western ideas, ”
Lol- Why would it step backwards like that EG? China has had a civilisation going back thousands of years and we’re led by a brash badly-behaved ignorant bunch of yahoos who broke away from the King a few hundred yeas ago.
No, you are seeing the peak of the West, this is the century of the Asian nation. We will collapse into a pack of whining woke wimps who live with uncertain electricity from our ruinables while the Asian quarter stride ahead to direct the future. Sad but true..

Meanwhile, things are progressing along their usual lines.. America tries to distract Russia with some trouble in Armenia or Georgia, Russia retaliates and Venezuela suddenly takes a referendum on invading Guyana over the oil areas, so the Yanks get their military down there ASAP…
“US Holds Military Exercises In Guyana As Border Tensions Soar- The United States said it will carry out military flights in Guyana on Thursday in a joint operation as the South American country faces soaring tensions with neighboring Venezuela over a contested oil-rich region.”

I may post that again in the upcoming sunday thread for not beeing lost so fast:
Greening the desert
20
Seems to be a misplaced idea of what makes a desert –
What about the basic lack of rainfall and how does adding clay fix that?
Any proof of concept test plots around Poeppel’s Corner?

The BBC has just told me breathlessly that “the Arctic Ocean is melting” .

Has that been fact checked?
Might also be happening to Great Southern Ocean?
Glad I wasn’t drinking a hot coffee when I read your comment.

“Radical Objectivity
A review of Jeff Fynn-Paul’s ‘Not Stolen: The Truth About European Colonialism in the New World’ ”
https://www.amazon.ca/Not-Stolen-Truth-European-Colonialism/dp/164293951X/ref=sr_1_1?crid=7FWC20CXIBZ0&keywords=jeff+flynn-paul&qid=1702155831&s=books&sprefix=jeff+flynn%2Cstripbooks%2C107&sr=1-1
“A renowned historian debunks current distortion and myths about European colonialism in the New World and restores much needed balance to our understanding of the past.
Was America really “stolen” from the Indians? Was Columbus a racist? Were Indians really peace-loving, communistic environmentalists? Did Europeans commit “genocide” in the New World?
It seems that almost everyone—from CNN to the New York Times to angry students pulling down statues of our founders—believes that America’s history is a shameful tale of racism, exploitation, and cruelty.
In Not Stolen, renowned historian Jeff Fynn-Paul systematically dismantles this relentlessly negative view of U.S. history, arguing that it is based on shoddy methods, misinformation, and outright lies about the past.
America was not “stolen” from the Indians but fairly purchased piece by piece in a thriving land market. Nor did European settlers cheat, steal, murder, rape or purposely infect them with smallpox to the extent that most people believe. No genocide occurred—either literal or cultural—and the decline of Native populations over time is not due to violence but to assimilation and natural demographic processes.
Fynn-Paul not only debunks these toxic myths, but provides a balanced portrait of this complex historical process over 500 years. The real history of Native and European relations will surprise you. Not only is this not a tale of shameful sins and crimes against humanity—it is more inspiring than you ever dared to imagine.”
