Spring Storm Brings Snow Boost To Sierra Nevada; Canada Buried By Snow; North India Shivers — Records Fall; + Australia’s Art Of Self-Sabotage
Industry depends on reliable, affordable power. As costs rise, production moves abroad. Australia’s manufacturing share of GDP has fallen from 14% in the 1970s to 5% today.

The crash did us a favour. The new layout is much preferable to the former one.
No sign of any comments since the Web redesign. Have we lost them completely? Or are they to be found elsewhere?
Hi Veggie. By not showing the number of comments on the homepage of each article it is not possible to see at a glance whether there has been a new comment added which is potentially a reply to ones own comment.
This is a form of self editing to reduce the amount of comment which is non climate related, such as communication between that really cool lady Deb, and others, including that Moffin type beast.
While for some this ‘may’ reduce the sense of community in relation to this site it does enhance the saying, ‘stick to your knitting’ which in this case the knitting is climate.
Totally Cap’s prerogative.
On Climate issues, my understanding is Deb has learnt that the CO2 molecule is bigger than the oxygen or nitrogen atom so she is running her vacuum cleaner to filter out that nasty CO2.
I need to explain that oxygen atoms hang out in pairs so vacuuming my not work. 🙂
Best. (as they say)
I like the new design. Cap you are a fantastic Teacher. At 70 I know learning something new everyday is necessary to stay educated aND sane.
THANKS…HI DEB!
Australia is a sad example of what mindless green energy driven lunacy can bring. The country is sitting on massive amounts of coal, oil, and natural gas. Australia could have had one of the lowest energy costs on this planet. But no the citizens keep voting in the insane leftist politicians who keep on steadily and relentlessly destroying their economy with singleminded devotion to attempting to reduce CO2. Results so far have achieved reducing the standard of living for Australians and leaving their country at the mercy of their enemies. CO2 is plant food, and has been scientifically proven to be a molecule incapable of holding heat. CO2 cannot create global warming but is in fact essential for life as we know it on this planet.
Australia has no oil refinery, yet has oil and gas reserves in the Timor Sea and elsewhere.
Actually, two small refineries.
Thank you Doug. With petrol stations in Australia reportedly running out of petrol the mainstream media in NZ reported repeatedly Aussie, Aussie, Aussie, oi, oi, oi, had no refineries.
Thank you for the information.
So if there are refineries in Australia, why did the petrol stations run dry or was this further NZ fake news.
Here in KY we sit on massive amounts of Soft and Hard coal. We also have a type of coal that is so hard it takes D10 rippers or expolosives to break up. You can light it with a match. But the Dems in DC and some in KY helped shiut many mines down. Now Trump has brought clean coal Power Plants are being brought back into action. A trucker in Eastern KY can make close to $250000 a Year driving. And the Miners can make over $80000 a year. AND Earth needs MORE CO2 not less.
AUSTRALIA: Whatever CO2 reduction Australia and Europe achieve is more than replaced by the coal, oil and gas usage in China and India alone, and more from the other FF using countries.
