Recycled water or renewable energy - which is truly sustainable? : Comments

By Charles Essery, published 23/10/2019

If I had chosen renewable energy, I might have been wealthier, but would be dissatisfied at being involved in a very destructive and ultimately unworthy industry.

Ok, Big Nana. So how should we do that!?

Hand you and your ilk their own AK47 all the ammo you could use in a lifetime and just send you forth to take out all the old folk, all the intellectually disabled, all the dependant cripples all the homosexuals, Gypseys and Jews Have I missed anyone?

The methane emission emitting cows in India, maybe?

Or if you'd rather just nuke the hell out of the impoverished breeders?

Perhaps compulsory sterilisation?

Or is there a final solution you do like? All of the above perhaps?

You'll have a nice day now y'hear!

The author should stick to his study of water and concentrate on convincing all the fuddie duddies that we can actually safely drink recycled sewage. I will give him full marks for that.
I also agree that there are many who are taking advantage of the climate change events to screw money out of the system.
However, we really don't need models with super computers to tell us what is happening before our eyes. Those who look at the pictures from all around the world can see that vast areas of ice are melting. The weather patterns are shifting toward the poles and easily done physical measurements show that atmospheric CO2 is rising and because of that, sea pH is falling. You don't need to have much knowledge of science to draw the conclusion that an unusual climate change event is real.

Being a water expert, the author could do research into why the Murray-Darling (MD) Basin Scheme designers/administrators failed to consider how the scheme might be modified in the event of a crippling drought of the type being experienced presently. Or, is the scheme designed to make human life and livestock less sustainable in the Basin?

In particular, why must so-called environmental flows be maintained unconditionally, such that farmers/towns are prohibited from drawing emergency water supplies from the rivers that are carrying those flows to the sea at the Murray Mouth?

Is the MD Scheme so designed, deliberately to enforce reduction of livestock numbers in the Basin, thereby reducing the volume of flatulence that is alleged to contribute significantly to global warming; and thereby desirably controlling the number of humans by reducing life expectancy through enforcement of plant-product consumption in lieu of meat that becomes scarce and prohibitively expensive?

It is a toss up which is the best ever article on OLO, this, or one of Don Aitkins. Obviously they have done the research & understand the math that tells CO2 can not do what the warmist scammers tell us it can do.

Yes we know the climate is changing, but only as it always has. Yes man is having an effect, but only in his own habitat, mostly by urban heat island effect, & some land use. Get out of urban areas & you will find most of the change is only in the corrections applied by the scammers themselves. Raw temperatures, before homogenisation, [shorthand for bastadisation], shows little change.

And specially for VK3AUU, do try to catch up. Glaciers are growing again, the melting ice keeps catching naive "scientists" ships, I wonder how. Atolls are growing, & the frosts were the worst this year in my 27 years here. Just stop blaming that poor CO2, & I might agree with you on some of it.

Until such time as we embark upon a reduction of our unsustainable out of control population growth we are just wasting time.
Solve our ONLY PROBLEM and we might see some progress and, who knows, even have a liveable planet for the future.

Having had some involvement in the MDBC and its players, I reckon not even God nor Gaia would be able to sort it out. There are so many vested interests who have over the years tried to prevent the actual flows being accurately measured (something would have thought was straight forward) that become one of the most messed up examples of water basin management. I makes the renewable energy market look angelic! Yet, if you work for MDBC, one of the state government agencies, puppet university research groups or CSIRO, they as an elite quango have spun so many "good news stories" about the MDBC, that the rest of the world see it as worlds best practice. Its a joke and I pitty the small water users who suffer out there, particularly since water value was separated from the land and presented in an almost unregulated market to the global water investors. And at the heart of this has been at best incompetent, at worst bordering on corrupt State and Federal Water Ministers.
