The madness of Rishi Sunak.

The Office of Prime Minister has been tragically degraded by yesterdays screeching U-turn by hopeless Prime Minister Sunak. He has no idea how his slithering words sound so phoney on this un-needed un-debated climate about-turn. Wow!

What mattered/ matters is we have momentum for improving our carbon footprint, with Sunaks disastrous meddling yesterday the pace of march for reduction of carbon footprint will have surely slackened. We have many people onboard to get the right things done (or did have). He certainly is tone deaf and much distanced from ‘ornery folk, how ironic as the reason for this new position is incredibly his supposed empathy with the ordinary people, his concern for them, his desire to ‘help’. Must be excellent to know as a tenant of some awful crumby rental Sunak no longer requires minimum standards for insulation! Remember he is upper caste Asian, his mind sees society different from that of say near all UK citizens.

I am sickened. Car companies must have spent many millions, worked very hard, mindful of the Governments schedule, this must feel like a stab in the back. Why shld they ever trust the Govt again, why should they seriously consider the UK for any new investments, already we were amazingly ‘hanging-on’ after the effects of Brexit, now one wld assume we they will be waving goodbye.

Rishi Sunak always struck me as a very capable Head Boy, moving behind the scenes, in and out of the Headmasters office, destined for great things, but there is MUCH that he is blind toward and has no intentions of becoming aware of, never mind concerned. Look at all the stoppages and protests of many kinds, he is totally indifferent, can offer a few words of soundbite but dismissive and ineffectual.

Theres too many Asians of the wrong sort in the Cabinet, they back each other up, they do not have a reliable or appropriate sense of critical thinking, they will push forward any offensive or crazy plan if it suits them. Surely the madness of Rwanda deportation (what difference to that of being sent to Siberia) and the hopeless barge are prime examples. Cheap, makeshift, unable to engineer anything with integrity or moral value. We need workers as we have shut off our supply from the EU, rather than treating migrants as handicapped lets get them integrated and contributing.

Goodness, one couldn’t have made this up, to transition from Truss to Sunak. I’d wondered why I’d hear her a couple of days previously on the news, I know this sounds mad but are they somehow trying to prove 2+2=3?

I shudder to think how protesters will now direct their energies, Sunak has fanned the flames of disobedience and fired up their energies with yesterdays illogical and stupid climate about-turn. I personally wish the protestors wouldn’t stop traffic etc as it is no.10 itself that needs to see this passion and commitment, as with all stoppages and unrest Sunak et al are totally and willingly oblivious.

One good thing (the irony) of Sunaks crazy U-turn on climate is that the subject/ problem and task in hand is much bigger than pip-squeak Sunak, he’s thrown away any credibility he might have had and I wld assume cannot wait for another general election (or maybe even a resignation, he couldn’t care less) … so as to be able to disappear back into private business and finance.

Lines in the sky.

Here north east England we get a few chemtrails each day, a random infrequent scattering, none of the ‘big events’ of say three or four years ago which prompted me to become serious about this subject. Maybe my blogging with here hundreds of posts and more in images of chemtrail hints to leave this patch of sky alone?

Its pointless trying to explain this to anyone, folk of near zero experience or observational acuity are the first and loudest to decry my findings.

What did get a lot of lines in the sky ie chemtrails was south east England and the English Channel on 13th July 2023. https://go.nasa.gov/3NVvGEC

chemtrail south east England 13th july ’23

Guesstimate those chemtrail are easily four miles wide, that is a serious amount of dimming of direct sunlight to hit the surface.

Pound to a pinch of this is the direction things will go, officially sanctioned geo-engineering chemtrails (this is not cloud seeding) Biden a few weeks ago announced they are looking into it, goodness knows its already operational, ask any California or Vancouver resident with eyes and a brain. The dynamic of earth climate change is getting palpably serious, soaring temperatures accelerated with an impending El Niño–Southern Oscillation, higher than predicted sunspot activity, probable loss of Arctic ice this year (much is only a foot thick or less) and the likely break-off of some big Antarctic ice shelf all point toward little room to manoeuvre. And methane in its various forms, oh dear lets go to bullet points …

methane say x200-2,000 the efficacy of CO2
methane originating as terrestial, undersea frozen hydrate, underground / undersea big deposit methane fields at present at capped with ice soon to disappear.
the shallow Laptev Sea and eastward covers the East Siberian Ice Shelf, whoops methane.
loss of diatoms, they actually convert as much CO2 as all terrestial green things.
this list goes on, impending el nino, sunspots higher than predicted
Antarctic ice shelf … somethings gotta give …
increasing Atlantic warm waters flowing into the Arctic

Silliness and obfuscation fills the news here in the UK to distract when we should focus toward what really matters, not a couple of easily replaced sex pest tv presenters. This aids the inept Tory Govt, Sunak etc because their idea of management is to ignore; witness horrendous strikes that do not whatsoever resonate within the walls of no.10. Look at the to and fro’ing of the Bill to stop immigrants crossing the Channel in small boats, the one piece of legislation this pointless Govt is adamant to enact. We need workers, labour and these numskulls are turning them away at any cost and those landed on these shores are held up immobile whilst achingly slow so-called ‘processing’ wastes their talent. Who bloody cares – get them to work, some are even doctors and technical people!!

Collectively the human race is going to get what it deserves, if so it shouldn’t grumble when the axe falls.

Biden opens way to geo-engineering.

Surprise surprise, geo-engineering is now being openly sanctioned through the front door instead of being a covert operation (ask any California resident) and the object of ridicule.

Its a nice sensation being proved right, but then again I always knew I was right re lines in the sky ie chemtrail and their deposition of nano-particle aluminium. In other words we will now be applying a crude sticking plaster with foregone side-effects that will strike horror into any health stats professional.

Do I feel good about being ‘right’ … not really as theres many things i pursue and cultivate on what would be seen as a solitary path. I do not need the kudos of the unseen general populace. Its a shame ‘sheeple’ move as they do.

I think someone somewhere needs to apologise to all those California residents that lost everything in wildfires which in my opinion were exacerbated from chemtrail nano-particle aluminium. I’m not a scientist but I’m not stupid.

Postscript, sorry to be Mr Nihilist but basically theres too many of us. We shld have had a one child policy decades ago. The motor car has become our god, far too many people are ‘dedicated consumers’ … quite ugly to see. It was only three generations ago most people lived close to work and walked there, most people did not have the development of any commuter framework.

I don’t know how we can make the adjustment, our footprint on this planet does not earn us any Brownie Points with God or whatever. I try my best however piddling it is, but then it all rests with the individual to set an example (admittedly chaff to the wind compared to the electrical demands of industry and the web) however I must be doing something correct here at the hacienda, to ‘upset people’ I need only mention my combined gas and electric bill during the winter months!

Are plants growing taller this year?

Since mid spring I’ve guessed my garden plants are growing taller, bluebells seem taller, daffodills, as does Leucojum (spring snowflake) tulips too but what prompted me to log in and write a quick post re garden plants seemingly taller this year was seeing a few minutes ago the burgeoning and soon to flower Aqueliga in my garden, definitely taller.

This apparent phenomena has bugged me for a couple of months now. Fertiliser or nitrogen has not been applied, other than a dressing of fish blood and bone which I do twice a year anyway. We know that with inc CO2 initially things will grow bigger, it acts as a nitrogen feed but after a certain point is the enemy of growing plants, soft useless growth and eventually the plant is strangled so to speak. Realise combined plant/tree demise and the loss of ocean algae ie diatoms will be the end of us, this is a truism, undeniable planetary mechanics and interactions of this beautiful chemistry set called planet Earth. Its an incredibly fortunate and harmonious mix we have of atmospheric gases and things (and us) that can function in such a scenario. Luck or God, I’m not sure and increasingly plumb for the latter.

As is usual the scientists seem behind the curve, theres only so many waking hours and googling for things is increasingly my less preferred activity.

UK politics, junk is getting in the way…

We need a greater sense of urgency re climate change ie Arctic ice loss, diatom loss (eqiv CO2>O conversion for all terrestial green things).

So much junk is getting in the way, the Tories are intransigent with the state of the NHS, latest Tory sleazeball Nadhim Zahawi somehow carelessly overlooked £23 million quid etc etc and the stupidity of HS2 in this digital age beggars belief, its not anything to do with transporting goods, merely bums on seats.

Both COP extraveganzas last year will amount to little if anything and the IPCC are so backward and emasculated, quite irrelevant to latest scientific thinking. World ice expert Prof Peter Wadhams mostly side-lined/ forgotten.

There are so many realworld momentous changes occurring, interconnected features and feedback loops like a vast chemistry experiment now set into dire motion and a quite unfavourable realignment, a realignment that does not favour homo saps nor most living things of any sort, if diatoms are severely compromised which is the foundation of the marine food chain and CANNOT be circumvented as to their essential contribution then the cards on the table indicate enjoy your life as you can, live a good life but imho 2026 is the line in the sand.

Its hard to know where to start …

Jet stream altering, expect crazy weather patterns and food prodn greatly altered. You can forget burgers.

Diatoms are on the decline, a total loss wld be equiv to all terrestial plants and trees for CO2>O conversion. Google the irony of that … origin of 70% of all world oil reserves etc.

Arctic ice loss, to some extent remains but thickness disappearing fast. One day soon it will all ‘flash melt’ and be gone.

Ice-free Arctic by summer 2023 … looks likely. Place your bets!

El Nino slow to start from the quieter La Nina, looks set to peak with sunspot max 2026… oh dear!

Methane is trickling slowly, as yet quite docile though at historically max levels, we have yet to receive the predicted large releases, as a short term catastrophe much higher effect than many will admit say min x200 of CO2 and one could guess a short term effect x1,000 that of CO2. IPCC is in all respects ‘dumb’ on this; shame upon them.

With inc CO2 or methane all green growing things go into reverse and will not be able to help us when we need it.
Reduction of aerosol masking effect ie ‘going green’ does nothing but inc temperature. The irony of it! Maybe that is why chemtrail is sprayed, but as its mainly nano-particle aluminium (near gaseous in its diffusion) it is non-healthy and imho greatly exacerbates wild fires.
To my mind a good source of all that is happening, could happen is http://arctic-news.blogspot.com/

Where are we with climate change?

I’ve lain fallow on this for a few weeks following the damp squib of a wasted COP26 Glasgow, to let the dust settle so to speak, to reflect. The IPCC should hang their heads in shame.

The four years of a trump vested interest and an ‘in reverse’ shambles of what could only laughingly be called an ‘administration’ (note I deny him upper case) has not helped this planet or its peoples in any way whatsoever unless of course you are already an exceedingly rich US billionaire; lets face it millions are small change these days….

But trump is not a billionaire, no matter how crooked his schemes and evasions it has still left him hanging on propped up by debt from lenders of near last resort.

I worry about the Yemen, the inexcusable shambles of a deliberately callous Afghanistan withdrawl etc etc

In all this blog of say six hundred posts I reckon my sources are of good quality, will stand to scrutiny and illuminate and educate. Brave people, particularly in the USA, they face demotion or dismissal for speaking like this.

Heres two for climate change …

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pg2vgGRwftc

Note in the above from Dr Guy Macpherson his concern at the big hit from ozone depletion at 02:45 from rising sea level and hence the loss and destruction of nuclear generation (ie meltdown) and hence near instant ozone loss rendering the ‘out of doors’ uninhabitable. Its a chilling quote “The living will envy the dead” at 03:28. My own hobby horse is diatoms and the oceanic plankton that scrub half of the worlds carbon for us for free, all are near or are actually microscopic; trees and land based CO2 conversion will fail us I’m sure and unfortunately the plankton too. We’ve played with a world size chemistry set and it all appears inevitable. I found the link for the above on …. https://www.facebook.com/groups/arcticnews/

Important, please see….. http://arctic-news.blogspot.com/p/about.html

Here below is disturbing footage, note the blackened ice, note how beavers are colonising further north and flood the land / permafrost with their dams, the catastrophic opening of Arctic ocean seaways with accompanying noise pollution destroying marine mammal habitat and their ability to communicate and organise.

climate change in the UK …

This bugs me, for the first time ever I can hang out towels at 11pm just short of them dripping with a hand wring from a wash in my downstairs loo sink as per my usual routine (being sans washing machine at this location) and bingo next morning they are dry. This may be usual in say the Caribbean but is not the norm for the north east of England in mid November!

The year end of 2026 is the line in the sand I chose for what is tolerable and what is as mentioned to friend Gary the point at which I presume conditions may well become difficult indeed. COP26 has been an utter failure, who the hell handpicks these numskulls? Pundit Beckwith over on youtube includes footage and dreary as his presentations as ever are they do illustrate some very misleading presentations at COP26. Footnote: Paul, please try and assimilate NT manner and humour…. your fifteen minute vids are hell to get through.

COP26 seems to have utterly disregarded interconnected amplifying feedbacks and their importance, their many-fold increase over anything linear, ‘linear’ being the darling of COP26 and the emasculated head in the sand IPCC and the curse of NOT being able to get a grip on what really is happening.

COP26 failure…

One country India should not have been allowed to water down the COP26 statement re coal use, the general concensus and plain common sense dictates how we should proceed. Its no use the individual doing his or her best to minimise carbon footprint when its the big emitters and industries that must offer clout and crunch the big numbers.

A statement, merely something on paper, this is what men in suits do best, when will the scientists and engineers be given chance to show their best? I think an alternative to COP needs to be instigated, I would hope such a thing is happening right now. But if you read and listen to tone and the possible outcome of many experts on this, those at the sharp end with knowledge, direct observation and data they too think as I do that a vast chemistry set of reactions has been set in motion and I doubt theres much we can do. For instance look at jet stream, arctic warming, Greenland ice melt, ocean plankton, etc etc.

COP26 was feeble, an obfuscation, fiddling whilst Rome burns.

In all practicality with impending arctic methane and the interconnectedness of amplifying feedbacks its all just window dressing so to speak but as responsible adults and responsible nations we must do our best, we must never give up on this. Though it would be useful to think we could look back and think we did our best the scene set is not good and immediate practical effect of our efforts looks very poor indeed. One point five will soon look irrelevant to everyone, it will blow away in the breeze, but if it helps minds focus then so be it.

Watching silly billionaires pour their money into junk spaceflights and super yachts is uncomfortable to watch; shame upon them, pity we couldn’t boycott their activities, I never have been keen on Amazon anyway. A glorified shopkeeper!

http://arctic-news.blogspot.com/

note in the above the heat over vast at present still withheld gas reserves in northern Canada and likewise the heat exactly over the shallow Laptev Sea ie northern Siberia. In time and we are already in my opinion at that point the Arctic instead of cooling the planet will become a vast engine, an agency of heating, our enemy so to speak. Its only in recent years scientists are working out the worlds water circulation into the Arctic, the importance and danger between fresh and saline, warm and cold.

Ice is funny stuff, once huge bodies of it ie the Greenland ice sheet is most obviously melting with endless melt pools and rivers falling thousands of feet into the interior of the ice massif then theres nothing that in all practicality can be done to halt this process. In pure vengeance I’d like to winch trump and his cronies beneath a helicopter and dump them in the middle of the fast thawing wilderness, a childish idea perhaps, but for the harm and delay they have caused I think perfectly justifiable.

Watch out for methane which exists in three forms, vast trapped reserves, subsea frozen hydrate and as the result of a warming of ancient carbon deposits now being prompted to microbial activity. As repeated already the irony of burning ancient diatomaceous oil and associated gas deposits has led to their oceanic demise, thats half of the world CO2 conversion gone, increasing CO2 also means trees and green land based CO2 conversion activity will also decrease, its their natural reaction. Fun times ahead.

postscript, please read arctic-news.blogspot … here i copy and paste re methane and the IPCC total refusal to acknowledge its importance or apparently its existence !!!

copy and paste …”One of the largest threats is seafloor methane and despite repeated warning from some of the best experts in the field, the IPCC simply waves away this threat. This and other elements in the bar have been discussed in detail in many earlier posts such as this one and on the extinction page.”

loony stupid headlines re climate change …

Whatever numskull produced this headline / news tag?

“LOSS OF GLACIERS WILL HURT TOURISM” ….

https://www.mail.com/int/scitech/news/11273142-loss-glaciers-will-hurt-tourism-power-supplies.html#.1258-stage-rightcolumn1-2

My response to this sheer level of stupidity is not printable here, there aren’t enough naughty words on the keyboard.

COP26 disaster …

COP26 is a failure, worse than I feared it would be.

Where are the scientists, where are the new ideas, the latest data, feedback projections?

It has dumbed down even below what a weak and blind IPCC could have stage managed.

I predicted a huge backlash to mans intransigence and eternal hubris and boy o boy theres going to be some very angry people, and in many senses rightly so.

Its my opinion the UK Government is delighted we are entering rapid and gross inflation, it will massage downwards the huge spend from Rishi, much of the money being quite un-needed, £10k lump sums to small businesses that didn’t need it and a furlough scheme that I reckon has been much abused and which continued for far too long. Covid is still out there but in many instances its a case of “Covid – what covid?”

I’m not impressed on the performance of bbc radio news on getting detail out on what really matters as we move forward to an unstoppable oven of catastrophe, this will make any war look as a minor scale dummy run.

We hardly hear of the feedback effect of multiple systems all catastrophically amplifying each others effect and eventually the collapse of one another, like a house of cards, in essence negating or destroying each single systems ability to survive; lets throw a few probable eventualities around…

diatoms and plankton will die, are in fact dieing, therefore half of the world CO2 to O collapses. Who mentions this?
the ability of land based green growing things decreases CO2 conversion as CO2 itself increases, never mind methane.
aerosol masking multiplier.
ice gone, particularly the importance of vertical melt.
fact: jet stream now in two parts, dragging warm wet air over the Arctic.
fact: sunspot max for 2026 and transition from El Nana to El Nino coincides!
weather systems will waver and abandon the worlds conventional food production areas.
meat production (burgers?) needs to be drastically curtailed / minimised.
live near to your work.
does anyone consider pollution from commercial sources, diesel fuelled agriculture, construction and the military?
if we are for a fact losing/ have lost insect populations, hence we are losing small songbirds then what if we lose earthworms … that would be catastrophe.
if the oceans are warmer and of greater bulk what of tectonic plate shift?
existing wind and solar depends on established conventional weather patterns, not weather in flux.
we need a one child policy.
methane
methane
methane
etc

Nero himself would be aghast as how we are holding our nerve and blind to what is happening, fiddling with inconsequentials when the big things need to be addressed. The tree problem for instance, unless its evergreen ie the conifer then here in northern latitudes we have a thing called autumn leaf fall, likewise most green growing things, for half the year are near to dormant. The tree thing is difficult in the UK, already near all land is used as is most appropriate, theres not much slack.

Still thinking trees, we only have land surface to play with and most of that being unsuitable, yet six sevenths of the worlds surface is water, therefore in my opinion a solution must be water based / oceanic.

Heres an idea, rather than carbon offset which is in itself an often dubious mechanism we could have death offset, pay poor brown people to die instead of ourselves … mighty quicker than a one child policy! Whoops, gallows humour.

But seriously here is a scientist talking …

note in the above further down the page mention of ‘hole in sea ice in Laptev Sea 2010’,

The Laptev Sea will become famous for its shallowness and store of methane hydrate now set into melt mode. One could spend day upon day compiling this information, I only hope readers delve further than what at preseent at least at this address appears google presenting an obstacle at seeking out the latest scientific opinion, if it was fashion or burgers or stupid social networking it would be presenting me with a myriad of connections.
