  • @ohm0909 that video had me almost to the point of tears!

  • Now if only the rest of the world would as well.

  • No gay can be Christian don't give us a bad name!!

  • "'Do not have sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman; that is detestable. (Leviticus 18:22 NIV)

  • @KingRoeOner Ur detestable, and that fuckin' book is even worst. Go and clean ur ass with the Bible pages.

  • such narrow minded people, a price on something we need to grow trees, co2 is needed to produce compressed oxygen for medical purposes, put a price on naturally occuring co2 which is where most co2 comes from is like handing a gun to someone and asking them to kill themself for the sake of mankind so others may live, a contrived purpose started from the inner suburbs of Sydney known as the cafe' culture crowd.

  • sigur ros - what song?

  • *may not be in support of carbon tax

  • @beautifulday01 it's saying yes to action against climate change, not carbon tax. Some people there may not be in support of climate change, but would want to see action taken on climate change.

  • Maybe the government should spend less on the defense budget ( kissing america's ass) and the bullshit war on terrorism ("cough"..Islam), and appropriate the funds to climate change instead of making the people pay for a problem that hasn't really proven to be fact yet.

    The little guy always get ass raped. It's the Aussie way isn't it :/

  • Portuguese subtitles pleaseeee

  • Anyone that has just watched this please go to Hulu.com and look up "trading on thin air" this is all a scam the companys are using peoples morals and good intentions to make profits in just prolonging the real issues. I'm am for clean air and such but not the way they plan on doing it. Know before you go to the poles.

  • god i love this song, great video too

  • It's time we look at our self not as one human being but one human kind.

  • :')

    

  • I wish this happens India !!!

  • Say Yes to carbon tax, LOL people can be so retarded

  • Sigur Ros!!

  • @ohm0909 It sure was <3 lovely :o)

  • This is gayer than it's time

  • @ohm0909 very my friend, i want that to happen so my cousin can stop being ridiculed because he is a homosexual

  • I hate people that don't have their facts straight, as temperature rises carbon follows. The pm is mistaken and should clear up the mess she has made, power companies are going to spend more money cleaning their power plants to make clean energy and charge the people more money making another point less move ment to lower energy rates. Causing the companies to lose money and go out of business. Good job.

  • NICe

  • Why would any one dislike this video?

  • And how many more people said no/continue to say no? More than 50,000. It might not be evident but more people say no and whether it is the right thing to do or not- when the majority of the population don't want it- politicians should listen. Also how much CO2 was used in the making of placards, leaflets, T-shirts, this whole campaign. Almost hypocritical.

  • I've heard that song before that's at the beginning of this but I never found out what it was called and now this and it's driving me crazy WHAT IS THE NAME OF THE SONG

  • Comment removed

  • @tragicallyx3perfect song is Sigur Ros: Sæglópur

  • @RitoruJaki THANKYOU

  • sigur ros!!! i love him

  • What is the name of the song????

  • OH MAN WHAT IF CLIMATE CHANGE ISN'T REAL? THEN WE WOULD HAVE MADE A CLEANER, HEALTHIER AND MORE SUSTAINABLE WORLD FOR-ohwait

  • @crazedmongoose03 FOR OUR CHILDREN AND THEIR CHILDREN AND SO ON. PART OF HAVING A SUSTAINABLE WORLD WITH SUSTAINABLE ECONEMY THAT WON'T HAVE A DEPENDENCE ON FINITE RESOURCES

  • An actual STARGATE/PORTAL-THING was caught on film in New Mexico. The footage can be found within the short-film entitled "SUDDEN PORTHOLE", which is parked at the PROJECT CAMELOT YouTube page (it's under the George Noory video).

    I'm not selling anything…I'm just trying to spread the word about the unseen-dimensions we find ourselves embedded in.

    My BLOG @ samzurick*dot*com contains peripheral data regarding the movie and is where I reply to the "debunkers". THANKS!!

  • Yes!

  • Thanks Australia for helping to lead the way.

  • @why do you block users who disagree on other posts? Censorship is evil!

  • Australia defenitly has a long way to go, when it comes to recycling glas, plastic and so on instead of just digging a hole and dumping it all there. The same goes for old cars, over the cliff is not away and it is not recycling for sure.

  • @ohm0909 that was so beautiful. i cry every time i watch it. i live in canada where we have marriage equality but where our government has turned a blind eye to sustainable development.

  • The carbon tax won't work. It will kill the coal industry. The coal industry brings most of Australia's in.

  • We are already struggling to feed everyone! We had hotter annual temp in the dark ages!!! Its a cycle. U cant change a 7,000,000,000 world with 100,000

  • Fuck no to a price on evolving

  • This is beautifull!!! I still call Australia home!!!... And yes, i came here from "It's time" video!!! ;)

  • Not to be Deputy Downer but Australia and America could both go totally green tomorrow and there would still be China and India. They're still going through the *previous* industrial revolution, they're largely doing it with dirty fossil fuels, and they don't give much of a damn for hypocritical finger-wagging from the "west". Their attitude is "you had yours, now we will get ours", and who are we to say no?

    This is going to get a lot, LOT worse before it starts to get better. :(

  • @nfinn42 You sir, are awesome.

  • " It's time " brought me here.

  • Now if only America could get off its ass and do something too...

  • Even if we global warming wasn't true, the world will still be made a better place by the efforts.

  • oh cool i love this song! hohaoooooooooo !!! eeeeyyooooooooo!!

  • Watching this makes me proud to be Australian.

  • Whether or not you believe in Global warming one thing is for sure, we as a race are totally destroying this planet. Pollution levels are at the point of destroying peoples immune systems. Our population has just topped 7 billion and in the next 20 years we will be struggling to feed everyone...

  • Get ready for 2013, is all I can say to the grassroots. We're going to be in a hard fight.

  • I hope your country suffers now.

    Will the last person to leave Australia please turn out the lights?

  • Wow. What a dumb video. I can't believe u people actually think that taxing Australian polluters will change the world!!!! I did not know there were so many stupid Australians out there. God help us...

  • @martywest17 In a capitalist society, wouldn't it be fair to say that money is a huge incentive for innovation and progress?

  • @martywest17

    Call people who are cautiously optimistic "idiots" but believe in God...

  • @neepius oh yeah ok, thats why 97% of all scients on eaeth believe in global warming. the other 3% ar being payed by oil companies who only want to make profit.

  • @neepius dot

  • How much did JuLIAR give you this time Simon.

  • Try again(bloody iPad) we are our only salvation

  • Julia gilard I the biggest idiot on the face of the earth, she said that global warming is only caused by humans releasing carbon gas, it is know fact that humans make under 1% of the total carbon pollution on earth. Jesus Christ the iceland volcanoes in one day let out more carbon then humans in a year, you would have to be a full to follow her a socialist, narrow minded, bogan and her yes man party!!!!!

  • @yeshe698 Gillard has never said that only humans and nothing else cause global warming. The fact that you resort to not only calling her a narrow-minded bogan and a socialist(give me a break) shows that the only imbecile is you. And yes you can cherry pick evidence handed to you by Andrew Bolt or Piers Akerman but neither of them are scientists and nor are you so stop proclaiming that you have even half a clue

  • @yeshe698 did you partake in the study did you

    dont believe the fat cats we make more than 1%

    that propaganda comes from china whom is trying to avoid putting pressure on there rapidly growing economy in there race to become the economic powerhouse of the world

  • @yeshe698 Volcanoes and bush fires have spewed pollutants into the atmosphere for millions of years. The earth is much more resilient than we give it credit for, and far more resilient than that lying bogan and temporary PM Gillard.

  • We are our on

  • This is a great movement, I'm proud to be Australian.....This had to happen, stop praying to a dead God. We are our om

  • Fools... Lying, criminal fools..

  • Let the rivers of Babylon flow ~~~~~~~~

  • People wake up it takes 1 that's rite 1 to make a change so most of you know rite from wrong so make a change today for the right not wrong and the lambs will follow

  • Because tax payers paying a shit load more money is going to help save the plant! You stupid tree hugging fucking morons. This is why the worlds going down the shitter because people are getting dumber. Hope you choke on a big fat abo dick Julia

  • Every single person at then rally's are fucking idiots.

  • Get up Australia....far left socialist pigs.

  • The vast majority of climate scientists agree that the climate is changing because of human activity. I don't know what makes all these conspiracy theorists think they know better than people who have spent their life researching this. But you know who doesn't want you to believe in climate change? Greedy mining corporations who care about money and nothing else.

  • so  many uninformed people

  • The "scientific consensus" in 1970 was that the globe was COOLING, not warming. Nice rewrite of history you fools.

  • @OzDelphi - voting down my comment does not change the inconvenient truth that the "scientific consensus" in 1970 was that the globe was COOLING, not warming. Oceania has always been at war with Eastasia!

  • This isn't just a tax and a movement to ensure sustainable clean energy, it is a trigger for action, a reminder that we MUST care for mother nature. We farm and mine the shit out of this land yet we give nothing close to what we should back to replenish the soils. The air we breathe is littered with toxins, NO scientist would disagree to it. I SAID YES TO THE CARBON TAX AND IF YOU WANT AN INNOVATIVE, HEALTHY FUTURE, YOU SHOULD TOO.

  • Comment removed

  • @neephius

    Whether or not climate change is real isn't really important. Pollution is real, smog is a serious health risk in many major cities, not to mention most of our fuel sources are non-renewable. That is an undeniable problem, eventually they are going to run out. Even if what you say is true, the efficiency and cleanliness of our energy sources needs to be improved.

  • The reason their are so mant governments that want more human on earth and nothing has been done to stop the breeding is because they made a deal with the Macroscopic beings so that they want as much blood spilt on this planet as they can. By the time they have finished this planet will be one big ball of fertaliser.

    BELEIVE IT.

  • Yes Australia Is The FIRST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD To Do this. So AUSTRALIA IS THE GREATEST NATION EVER ON EARTH. WE HAVE DONE WHAT NO OTHER NATION HAS DONE. USA YOU SUCK YOU COUNTRY IS A BUNCH OF TALKERS NO DOERS. EXCUSES EXCUSES.

  • @neephius We are nowhere near the first country in the world to do this, but yes we should be very proud! I'm so glad I'm not American.

  • get your act together and Save Australian children and families

    youtube.com/watch?NR=1&v=wfxIV­sBkUmc

  • Thank you for the video

  • Congrats from the Canadian Tar Sands! The world's dirtiest oil supply.. Maybe one day we'll find the balz to follow you Aussies.

  • Thank God for Australia! Keep at this world;we have to GET it before it is too late.

  • an easy way to relieve the pressure on jobs created by this carbon tax is to sack everyone who complains about this legislation via the youtube comments sections

    please register your interest below

  • Together we can change what we know is wrong.

  • Comment removed

  • The hubris of these bug worshippers is unbelievable.

    Have fun destroying your economy Australia.

  • It is sad that so many people have been misled by the stupid greenies into believing the lie that is 'global warming' and 'climate change'.

    This tax will hurt the Australian economy and many jobs will be lost.

  • while you are trying make this government look good , Why not do a video on the worlds greatest treasure, Wayne swan? That would be as interesting and truthful as this. This government does not have a mandate to introduce such legislation in to law. This has been passed so gillard can hold onto power. I wonder if she will be so lucky with the poker machine legislation?

  • The passing of the CT legislation sucks. For the majority of the well educated public that can think for themselves it is real shame.

  • Future generations will regard Julia Gillard as a hero - for standing strong and showing courage against the lies, insults and abuse that have been thrown her way by the Opposition, media and some selfish, greedy, narrow-minded skeptics among the voting public.

    I am so proud. Thank you PM, Labor, Greens, Mr Windsor and Mr Oakeshott. Thank you.

  • Hilarious that the video started with footage of the first Earth Day held in 1970. What it didn't highlight is back then the scientific consensus was that the Earth was heading for global cooling and an ice age caused by carbon pollution. A good example of how bad GetUp is was the headline 'Dredging the Reef'. The southern most part of the reef is 200km away from Gladstone Harbour which isn't part of the GBR marine park. The CSG is being produced and piped over 400km from inland QLD not the reef

  • GetUp has gotcha. You gullible fools.

  • @ellicattube Still choosing to remain the ignorant bogan that you've always been I see. Did you read that climate report by the AAoS? Did you even look at the pretty pictures? This must really hurt. You should probably f!@k off, make some more inane dog videos and leave the important stuff to people who have the capacity to learn new things. All the former Liberal leaders are on the record as supporting this. Tony Abbott will never lead this country (fingers and toes crossed). :)

  • @wasdom01 Fuck off you drongo. You are one of the gullible. A disgrace to my country. I'm ashamed to have you and your dumb ilk as fellow countrymen. Hewson is a goose and Fraser is senile.

    "ACTING BASED ON *HOPE* IN ONE'S FUTURE IS A PSYCHOLOGICAL NECESSITY FOR HUMAN SURVIVAL AND INTELLECTUALLY COMPLETELY JUSTIFIED. IT IS ALSO A SIGN OF BRAVERY." This is true and I still hope this crap is wound back. Now head back to your beautiful people videos. I learnt my economics at uni not off Youtube.

  • @ellicattube The University of Dog Filmography must have had a really great Economics programme to turn out specimens like you buddy. If you look at the early comments on this video, you'll see that I was here WAY before you old man. This must really hurt....

  • @wasdom01 Your opinion of yourself is way too high. Being 'up yourself' is not a quality to be proud of. It's a trait fair dinkum Aussies rightly hate. If you mature you will be embarrassed of your young gullible days. Shameful to be lead so easily..& your such a stylish young fella too. I'm sure I saw you featured in the Chasers' Yes We Canberra adv for the Greens. Keep following the Thick Sheikh with your eyes shut & let him tell you what to think & say. The alternative for you would be worse.

  • @ellicattube Keep talking buddy. After such a hard fought campaign, everyone here could do with a damn good laugh. This has gotta hurt!

  • @wasdom01 Not as much yet as it will if we don't get it reversed before it really starts to bite. Now Reid, you should really get yourself another hobby. Something outdoors. May I suggest puppy school lol

  • @ellicattube Puppy School sounds awesome! O_O I take it that's where you got your economics (and science) training?

  • @wasdom01 Not sure what you have against someone posting videos of pups. A lot of youtubers do it and a lot enjoy them. I'm starting to think you are probably one of those pathetic PETA psychos too. The ones that "save" animals from people only to have them euthanised.

  • @ellicattube Generally speaking, I love videos of cute animals. I'm afraid that yours just suck though. I've got nothing against your dogs buddy, I had a Kelpie cross Red Heeler that I loved to bits. The problem I have is that your dogs could post more intelligent comments than you. Seriously, take a trip out to the kennels and get them to teach you some climate science.

  • Great! =)

  • This is the start of a new era. When that time capsule is opened in 2050 we will have realized that what we did was the right move to stop climate change and keep the earth livable for another million years Australia IS doing the right thing in putting in this carbon tax. And working families are on average better off under this scheme due to the huge assistance package that comes with this. People like @informationwarfare are only looking after corporate profits and not the nation

  • @doggie015 i'm only looking after corporate profits? how did you come up with that honestly? i never said that once, i couldn't give a shit about corporate profits

  • I know you all think you are doing something beneficial for the earth. The REAL environmental issue is the coal seam gas mine, please do not be fooled by this distraction! Australia will be rendered unliveable within a decade or two and there is no air play. Look it up. James Price Point.

  • Congratulations GetUp! Congratulations Labor. Congratulations Australia.

  • @informationwarfare And yet more protesters in support of a price on carbon appeared on the streets than those against it.

    80-90% my ass

    watch?v=A5aGIk2TXaE

    watch?v=L3Sx9YIFXoo

  • @dctcool Could that be because those protests got air time on the propaganda machine the television?

  • @HFTL666 TV had nothing to do with the numbers that showed up these events were spread via Facebook, both for and against, not to mention there were far more anti-carbon tax ads aired than there were pro.

  • @dctcool yea i gotta agree with hftl the real issue is with coal seam gas mining not this phony carbon tax. this mining is taking place in one of our big food producing areas, it is going to make the soil infertile. i was talking polls, most polls had 70%+ against the carbon tax. and our prime minister lied to us and said we wouldnt have a carbon tax, then we vote her in and like every other politician she lied through her fuckin ass, wait that's her face.

  • @informationwarfare I do agree that Coal Seam Gas is a serious issue, especially with new plants being constructed in the vicinity of the Great Barrier Reef which is concerning.

    As for Julia may I remind you that she's running a minority government as was the result of the election. thus compromises had to be made to pass certain legislation such as this and the pokies reform, ever tried to run a minority government? not easy

    Not to mention Abbott is not immune lies either

    watch?v=ckcH0Wrmy74

  • @informationwarfare Then why were there more people at pro-carbon tax rallies than at anti-carbon tax rallies? Maybe you should check your source (propaganda) if its telling you that 80% are against it!

  • @SuperViten what is your source? tv?

  • Simply amazing. The world has got better because of what this movement, what millions of Australians, have achieved together.

  • great day to see.

  • Still more to do, but this is a great start. Congratulations to all who never failed to see the bigger picture.

    Vine

  • Glad there's still some hope for humanity

  • I have said it time and time again. The Elephant in the room is population growth.

  • @millertas how could you be so anti human life

  • @informationwarfare Human being can be really shit, corrupt and not care about living the way we do around us with other life. So in all ages WE HAVE TO CHANGE!!!!!!!!!!!! or else we'll never learn.

  • @informationwarfare I am not but when I was born 1958 there were less than 3 billion people, there is now over 7 Billion. If an alien came to this Earth he would see there is a plague of humans and would "cull" many. I don't want to see a cull but would like to see a system where women who choose not to have children aren't ridiculed. I don't agree with the baby bonus.

  • @millertas so you are telling me for a fact that is an alien came to earth he would cull many? is there proof of this? what is this based on? assumption? women who chose to not have children arent ridiculed, i have never heard of any woman being ridiculed for that. if anything this sick society would praise that because htey have been told we are destroying the planet.

    greed is destroying this planet, we are stripping it of its recourses for profit.

    permaculture food forest is the way

  • @informationwarfare I haven't even got proof that there are aliens. I was trying to use the logic of humans when for example there are too many kangaroos - they cull them. I would challenge you on your "women who chose to not have children aren't ridiculed - Julia Gillard is one and it was mainly from other women. Yes Greed is one thing destroying this planet but surely human impact is a function of how much we consume individually multiplied by the population. 1850 - 1 Billion, 2011 - 7 Billion

  • @millertas that is the logic of a psychopath

  • @informationwarfare No it is the logic of a realist. I did not say I wanted a cull. What I am saying is that there are too many of us but the government encourages more with its baby bonus and society puts expectations on women to have babies. The more people on this Earth, the higher the total consumption (its just logical). We need to curtail population growth. All other ideas are fairly minor in comparison.

  • The Koch Brothers are behind the majority of all this. They stand to lose billions if their dirty empire is fazed out by 21st century thinking and innovation.

  • Beautiful!!

  • Loved it.
