  • almost year and a half ago I first saw this video, fell in love immediately, finally decided that Australia is where I belong. now, here I am, sitting in a cold Finland, waiting for 2 more years to carry out my dream. this video just came on my mind and I started to cry while watching it, so touching! can't wait to be there :)

  • powershit with solar

  • 3:47 good music :D

  • Broosycruise your arrogance is really starting to annoy me

  • The problem with the Carbon Tax is most people just look at the tax bit.

    But if you actually start to understand it you will be on it side

    And personally i think Broosycruise needs to do this.

  • When someone starts to dance in the middle of the street , you know there's gonna be a flash mob

  • this is not for green peace, Hitler Youth or some communist movement! its a simple dance for the end of a CONFERENCE meant to inspire youth to take action! if you cant understand that then i really feel sorry for you.

  • Modern day Hitler Youth brigade (lets change those songs you play to the German ww2 marching Music)

  • @broosycruise That is a disgusting comment if you actually read the name it does not say communist. You are a very low person indeed. That is offensive to many people not just Australians. Think before you speak.

  • @lthom10 communist? how uneducated and brainwashed are you? Germans were fascists/Nazi socialists, and yes you are that because you have been brainwashed into thinking that carbon dioxide is a major pollutant (the thing we breath out and plants breath in) you have a hypocritical leader al gore, dodgy science and its a waste of money trying to find a solution to a lie, when it could be spent on feeding the starving people in 3rd world countries. Don't believe the Government and media THEY LIE!

  • @broosycruise How uninformed are you bout carbon pollution my father is a scientist lokking into such problems

  • Nobody is going to listen to a bunch of bored, communist, nerdy youths.

  • @QuietVuvuzela dont be so quick to judge. who do you think pushed for the carbon tax to go ahead? do you think uni students are really bored? that they dont have ENOUGH to deal with? They (we i should say) are taking a stand for what we think is right.

  • @QuietVuvuzela i want to see you say what you just posted here to Ahri or Ellen who gave everything up because they KNEW something had to be done! who are you to say that no one listens? i can tell from your comment that youre not some 40 yearold watching this, and it worries me because you should be looking at your future!

    very frustrating!

  • @lol2youall brainwashed sheep, the carbon tax is possibly the worst thing Australia tried to introduce, go worship your cult leader al gore, who by the way uses at least 10 times the amount of power in his mansions than the average American household, fly's around in a private jets and lies about everything he says. (climate gate) go look up the facts, carbon dioxide (that we and plants breath) goes up when temperature goes up, al gore flipped his special graph around. (co2 levels today 0.387)

  • @broosycruise 387 is a dangerous level of carbon sir. 350 is the maximum safe limit. We don't look up to Al gore as a leader, he is just another person raising awareness. There is no individual in this fight. And I believe my first statement made your argument invalid.

  • @wjdfhahn carbon dioxide does not warm up the earth fool, when temperature goes up co2 goes up not the other way around. besides, even if it was a pollutant (which its not) the carbon tax and everything else the corrupt government is doing is not going to solve the problem or even change the climate at all. logically its a waste of time, money could be spent on saving lives and feeding starving people then on a lie and your just brainwashed by the media, plenty of scientists say its all a lie.

  • @broosycruise there are also plenty of scientists that say its true - google 'Global warming confirmed by independent study' (I can't past the url)

  • @broosycruise anyone with any scientific education would know CO2 is not formed by heat, but primarily by combustion. The chemical process which works in most living creatures and DUM DUM DUMMMMMM Burning Coal. Carbon Dioxide is a genius at retaining heat. That is the attribute that is the most problematic. It is not toxic as such, but helps create a warmer atmosphere. The tax will only be payed by the biggest polluters, and much of the money will go towards the people! Learn your facts, sir.

  • @wjdfhahn im sorry but the whole idea of a carbon tax is complete nonsense, go search up climate gate and find out things that the media and government don't want u to know. I for one, would spend the money else were, ie world hunger, but you research about a lie, and the solution is.. go back to the stone age, well you can have fun with that while you live in caves in your "echo" land, while the elite rule over you with new technology and not care about the earth. ENJOY!

  • @broosycruise Climate gate scandal was years ago. They've done new research that has no affiliation with Climate Gate. Result? It still supports it. I'm not promoting we change our lifestyle, I want what powers our lifestyle to change. I also think world hunger is a serious problem, but that problem will get worse if we leave global warming as it is. plus, with all the money we will be saving from a renewable powered australia, we can spend more money towards other causes! we can all win sir.

  • @wjdfhahn nope, The big companies get taxed, they put up prices, we pay more. How can anyone on earth as well think believe what the government and media tell them. Half these people who support the carbon tax are stupid uni students who have nothing better to do than go around hugging trees, preaching the end of the world because they have been taught & brainwashed into thinking its real for years. Even if it was real were all going to kill each other before you see any dramatic effects. relax

  • @broosycruise Yes, and the government will compensate most of those costs. Your ignorance really does annoy me. Sure, media is biased, but bills passed by the government must be followed. They government knows that without doing so, their mandate will br quite effectively be taken away, Those who support the tax are those who have brains to understand the scientific evidence-and also had the brains go to uni, if you want to make uni students look bad. Climate change will have rapid effects.

  • @wjdfhahn lol rapid effects, that's why we have had some of the coldest winters/summers in years, sea levels are not rising but dropping and the icebergs are getting bigger etc, HAHAHA, oh dear, the majority of people in Australia and the rest of the world don't believe this climate bullshit anymore, your cult is fading fast and the world is on the brink of war and economic collapse in a few years no one will care for you people, enjoy

  • @broosycruise Cold Winters and Summers are part of the natural trend. On average, the global temperatures are increasing. Never measure global figures just from local records! Ice bergs are getting bigger because more ice is breaking of the ice shelves. Ice berg sizes show that there is more warming, not more ice. Your lack of scientific knowledge amazes me. Climate change is not a lie, but a scientific fact with scientific evidence. Your ignorance is starting to annoy the shits out of me.

  • @wjdfhahn lolol no mate, England and the U.S is going to have one of its coldest earliest winters in years, Al Gores favorite mt Kilimanjaro is actually gaining ice LOL, the Arctic shows its cooling and not warming, lolololol mother nature is kicking climate change in the face, if you look up all the global cooling scam back in the 70's-80's they say the exact same thing, more storms, more floods, fires etc its soooo funny mother nature 1 Climate Hoax 0.

  • Just when i thought people could not be any more stupid and retarted....i found this... go join green peace or that piece of shit paul watson with sea shepard, their both ecco terrorists

  • @cdffirefighter You're a wet blanket it's meant to be fun and everyone who watched seemed to enjoy it (Except for you). Loosen up a bit you might enjoy life. I feel sorry for you.

  • @3Tamae i feel sorry for you, brainwashed sheep.

  • @cdffirefighter some people are so stupid that they believe what the media and government tell them, they don't care about the earth all they want is to fill up there pockets.

  • Gotta love the Aussie spirit, but god we need better dance moves! lol

  • At the end I heard "Po-Li-Tics Po-LiTics Po-Li-Tics"

  • This proves how great Aussies can be with their cause! Epic

  • I so want to be a part of one of these things. (:

  • @chloebaybeeeeeeeeeee you can be :) this year powershift is happening again in Brissie and we'll be doing a similar action. if you're interested, the powershift website is powershift . org. au and you can register :) it's gonna be awesome!

  • @mizzcheekymonkey93

  • do you know how many Youtubes I watch to the end?

    Awesome.

    I liked best the "other" image of the Opera house.

    Good work!!

  • Comment removed

  • I guess it easier to indoctrinate hundreds of people when they're young and uneducated.

    Those of us who actually know something of chemistry, oceanography, physics, etc. don't get heard because we don't do flashmobs.

  • Um..... so let me get this straight... they came in from around the country on airplanes...buses..trains to be Neo-Hippies

  • @axe863 We cant tella port just yet so what can we do..

  • @GayBoyRunning  We have this thing called ...the internet. The best way to support a cause..is not to make mundane exceptions to the rule.

  • @axe863 I know that & i was beening sarcastic if you were able to compute that sir.

  • why couldn't you do that when I was there last year?

  • *HAVE that should be.

  • What a great message! And you did a wonderful job! :)

  • 3:00 lol, headbob

  • hahahahaha, save the future? From what exactly? it's not like the earth hasn't been surviving for the past 4.5 billion years, through far, FAR harsher times than these. The young have been taught to believe in these climate lies. How does it feel to be tricked by the very people you think you're fighting against?

  • the earth will be fine, it's poor people I'm worried about. Americans will be able to use their air conditioners but people in Africa/ near the equator will be in big trouble.

    we've got to work on adaptation. those glaciers are gonna melt in the arctic and coastal areas will be dealing with periodic flooding/ and a few feet higher sea levels

    also need to work on energy efficiency. why do something that is bad for the environment & economy- efficiency is good for the economy

  • @EdwinOde Yes, the planet has been around for billions of years and will survive for billions more (or until the sun goes nova). The question isn't if the planet survives, it's if *we* can survive with it. I have my doubts.

  • EdwinOde,

    Biological and geological forces take millions of years to place clay, coal, oil, gas etc. into the crust of the planet. They are being extracted and processed year in, year out, decade in, decade out.

    The lifestyle we've all become accustomed to may be sustainable. May be. I, for one, do not subscribe to the view that an economic growth ideology and current methods make it so.

  • wooo!! go dancing white thinga!!

  • the indoctrination of youth, easy to do, great results. Disgusting.

  • @EdwinOde The international youth climate movement is student-run, buddy. We know what we're doing, and why: to save our future.

  • i wish nz could do that!!!

  • Hmmm well done guys you just dont know what you are following looking like Hiltler Youth Climate change is a fraud to bring in the One world government to TAX us and enslave us. Documents exposing the scam have been leaked from an English University last week proving it to be a fraud!!!!! Welcome to world dictatorship

  • Yeah, did you see the green army helmets they were wearing! They are probably working on an attack dance to take over the world at this very moment! Global warming is obviously a scam---that's why the US EPA just officially declared that greenhouse gases are a threat to public health. The real scam is being perpetrated by climate science skeptics.

  • so cool idea!!!!))very nice!)

  • Brilliant way for everyone to show how they feel in a non aggressive way, are flashdance routines the way to protest of the future, because it is getting more and more difficult to disagree with what the decision makers say without getting arrested, beat up , or killed.

  • Where can I get that arrangement of Forever Young...?

  • @mayamaia,

    Do a YouTube search for youth group forever young.

    Regards.

  • So frakkin awesome!

  • what is really sick is the editing, the guy dancing in the beginning and the earth dancing. Mike you are a master editor. If I manage a flashmob dance in New York City U.S.A. maybe you can help me edit it to look good!
