It was obvious! The coal will not be left in the ground

By Denis G. Rancourt

In my February 2007 essay "Gobal Warming: Truth or Dare?" I predicted:

"In this world, before renewable sources become the new basis of global economic extortion, oil exploration will be extended to every sensitive ecosystem on the globe and the world’s massive coal reserves will be liquefied and gasified. There are enough coal reserves to keep the wheels of corporate exploitation turning for another 1000 years or so at the present rate."

Today Reuters reported:

"[I]n Asia alone this year power companies are building more than 500 coal-fired plants, with at least a thousand more on planning boards. Coal is not only cheaper than natural gas, it is often available locally and has no heavy import costs."

This occurs as the US is attempting to use carbon panic (global "climate mitigation") as coercion to impede and exploit the emergence of BRICS et al., with the overly enthusiastic collaboration of too many American and European middle-class citizens who irrationally fear a planetary collapse induced by atmospheric CO2.

$10K Climate Challenge

Peter Laux, Locomotive Engineman from Australia, “will pay $10,000 (AUS) for a conclusive argument based on empirical facts that increasing atmospheric CO2 from fossil fuel burning drives global climate warming.”

See Peter Laux’s signed and authorized Statutory Declaration (affidavit) to this effect HERE.

The Statutory Declaration is a legal and binding document: “a false declaration is liable to the penalties of perjury.” The authorising witness is Constable Jack Armstrong 37499 of the Victoria Police, Australia.

As stated in the Statutory Declaration, all submissions for the “$10K Climate Challenge” must be made using the submitter’s true identity and must be submitted as a comment to the present Climate Guy blog post.

It is understood that $10K (AUS) will be paid to the first person to send a complete submission. This challenge is open for 20 years from the date of this post.

Warmists of the world: The ball is in your court. The $10K Climate Challenge is declared open.

Radio conversation about global warming

Here is an interesting radio (CHUO 89.1 FM Ottawa, Canada) conversation about global warming and how it is perceived by train drivers in Australia...
