TheRealNews,

Could you cover Australia's possible change in policy, concerning the environment, under the new leadership of the labor party and its possible new role in Oceania/ASEAN area? thx

[TheRealNews]

Hi there, we will be interviewing someone today from Australia that will discuss the implication s of the change in government from a climate perspective. We will continue to analyse other areas as well. Thanks for the suggestion.

We're experiencing the same type of drought here in the Southeast US (Georgia) but most people here think climate change is a myth thought up by Al Gore & evil 'liberals' in order to destroy the US economy. So, our governor, Sonny Perdue, decided to pray for rain on the statehouse steps. That, and he's trying to shut the taps off to FL and AL. Atlanta is 3 months away from no water at all. Wouldn't it be ironic if a 'War Between the States' broke out between southern states over water?

Look at what's happening in Atlanta, GA right now. And little publicized is the fact that the northeast U.S. is under drought conditions too.

@MsHatetheworld fuck you

Thanks for posting brother. It's nice to know somebody out there cares. I live in the UK and all I hear is that there are loads of skilled job available in your country, not much point going to a country with no water. The world has too many people and it is getting worse by the second. Good luck to you.

[jezagee]

yeah it aint cyclic at all... whatever dude... I don't think your worrying about a lack of water any more

We have the opportunity to show the world how to reduce emissions. The ZCA2020 plan produced by Melbourne Uni promises to reduce emissions, create tens of thousands of jobs and reduce the average Aussie electricity bill to just $8 per week. Don't believe me? watch?v=qImNRuV4G0Q

[MsHatetheworld]

no such things as climate change but if there really is climate change, it wont be up to us to deal with this. let our children and grand children worry about it!

[MsHatetheworld]

we dont care about climate change. Its for our children and grand children to worry about.

HELP MOTHER NATURE FOR BETTER CLIMATE

Use mighty power of nature

In the northwestern Australia, we have huge tides,

huge deserts, huge evaporation and huge dry rivers and lakes.

Huge 12m tidal erosion can revive old dry paleo dormant once mighty rivers, creeks and lakes,

desalinate the country and change deserts to rain forests to provide more rain across Australia

World population is growing rapidly and we need more energy, food, land and water.
