Rough ride ahead
October 17th 2007 01:38
I have decided to get my Political Climate Change post out of the way early on in this election campaign and then try to stay out of the fray with maybe the odd comments as a P.S. here and there (here's hoping)
There is no doubt that Climate Change is an election issue, I was just on a Climate Change site where kevin07.com came up in the Google Adwords Ad, so Labor are clearly pulling out all stops to make it an election issue. As much as I am all for Climate Change awareness I can't help but secretly think that I don't want Climate Change to be an election issue, mainly because of the misleading statements that will inevitably be made.
Climate Change is an important issue and it would be a shame for all of us to lose sight of the FACTS. There has already been enough damage to the few good things we are doing e.g. the Collapse of the NSW NGAC System and the collapse of Companies like Easy Being Green. Much as I don't think these systems were doing enough they were better than the nothing we currently have during this political uncertainly: Liberal and Labor are GUILTY HERE
The best thing that can happen is for the Liberals to do what they alluded to last week i.e. say they will sign the new Version of Kyoto and that people would be AWESOME and should be the END OF CLIMATE CHANGE as an issue for this election campaign, let them slug it out on other issues.
Let's FACE IT PEOPLE they are preaching to the converted, hell even johnny Howard has backflipped on the issue.
OK thats it from me, you all know where I stand, here's hoping I can bury my head in the sand.
cheers

Can't wait for Malcolm Turnbull and Peter Garrett to show their collective hands this election - or will this all be left to the experienced campaigners of messers Howard and Rudd?

I think Peter Garrett is champing at the bit to get out there but it seems Mr Rudd is running a one man band campaign at this very early stage.......I would love to see him in action, mind you he has taken a few pastings in parliament whilst his training wheels are still on
As for Malcolm Turnbull I think JH wants to lock him away, i think he gave him the Environment portfolio way back when he thought the environment didn't mean anything. ha we all know how wrong he was......
cheers
