Ozzies End Tax On Plant Food

Australia has rescinded their carbon tax.

As of today, Australia no longer has the most expensive “carbon” price in the world. The voters didn’t ask for a tax in 2010, but it was forced on them in 2011. They rejected it wholeheartedly in 2013 but it still has taken months to start unwinding this completely pointless piece of symbolism which aimed to change the weather. The machinery of democracy may be slow, but this is a win for voters.

Hopefully it will end that sort of nuttery in the US. Or at least reduce it.

Because from several different analysis’ (like this one) it seems like CO2 has a zero effect on climate. Habibullo Abdussamatov agrees and in addition predicts we are heading into a little ice age. Starting in 2014. Hey. This is 2014.

We have seen some odd cool weather this year. For a Northern Hemisphere summer. And not just in the American Midwest. Russia is also seeing something similar. We will know more come winter.

Here is a prediction by Abdussamatov from last year with some nice charts.

Some German scientists are making a similar prediction.
