"Cutting carbon dioxide emissions to curb climate change is possible but not easy."

That's all we need to know; ie  we have to cut CO2 emissions "to curb climate change"; and - by definition - once it's achieved, PVs and turbines etc  (all manufacturing)  will be built within the new net-zero green economy, with no ill effects on the climate., since CO2 emissions will stop increasing  ('net zero').

It's like pulling teeth.....

Rubbish. You can't even show that. Engineering isn't it your strong suit. Or even your weak suit.

This would be you - "six munfs ago I kudn't even spel injineer, and now I are one."

Oh dear. Lost his plot again. Third gravestone down.

But perhaps, remotely possible, that you can find a link.

Rubbish  to you, a 'climate hoax' theorist, but  not to the Princeton researches, who have shown that "it is  possible to reduce CO2 emissions, to curb climate change".

Do try to keep up.

No, now you are descending into mental chaos, unable to address socio-economc realities among different racial groups and groups with different social status;  and causes of crime -  and would rather navel gaze re the age of criminal responsibility. 

And diversions via lee's 'climate hoax' theory, won't save you from demonstrating your mental incompetence.

What's unbelievable? The wiki definition of woke?

Quote:


If I was awake (!) , I would answer: Yes.....meaning (literally)  awake ...AND (definitionally) aware of the socio economic realities of my life and that of my neighbours.

Heard on the radio today:

a Catholic bishop saying: "forget the word "woke", it's time to get those boys back from the prison in  Bali, they have paid the price and suffered enough".

Unlike the very antiwoke (very asleep) horrible woman Michaelia Cash  who was raving and ranting yesterday, demanding the PM explain why he was working to release contemptible drug smugglers  ....you see, RW "tough on crime" will fix the world...

Deplorable.

What is "unfckingbelieveable" is your continuous belief that Australia is racially discriminatory against minorities because of our economic system. Money does not grow on trees, tgd. The money has to come from somewhere. And if you don't understand this by now, you are either too young to be typing on such issues. Or you have your hand in the biscuit container, just daring your siblings to go tell your parents what you are rebelliously trying to do -- if I can use an analogy to emphasize a point.

I should be more direct. You are one of those people on the free rides. The very idea of being made to work smart is so degrading to you that you wish someone would gang up on people like me and have me transferred to a desk job. Think of it like this: I have been there and done that. I am getting close to being 46 years old, and I hardly think that is old. But I have seen more shhtuff happen around me that even military veterans think that they should be saluting me. I am not even in the military.

Re: "woke". At some point between being asleep and being awake, there is a point where you are almost awake but still asleep. You might lay in bed for a few minutes trying to get your mindset bearings right. Once you get out of bed and get your coffee/breakfast into you, you have undergone being "woke".

For me, if I down a bottle of scotch, I might lay in bed awake the next day being as "woke" as I can get (thinking how I wasted 50 dollars) to make myself sick. I think about all the things I could have done with the money. I wonder who I have drunk texted. I imagine that the rest of the day will include having to do yard work to make the most of the hangover. And then I debate whether my father will discover my bottle of scotch I left on the countertop, where Dad has this idea that I am some kind of alcoholic because I drink every 3 or 4 weeks. He gets all uppity because he cannot handle alcohol and thinks that I cannot, either.

THAT is a thorough understanding of what being "woke" is all about.

Or I could go on about being shot in the left shoulder by an indigenous drug dealer, all because I told off his nephew. Added to that was the fact that I could not go to the police about it. I then find out, 12 years later, that the drug dealer was in the Australian Army. So, there was little hope of being helped by the police, unless they wanted to suffer some kind of issues from the ADF.

The purest definition of Woke is:-  "This is my opinion!  And you can't have yours if it disagrees!"

Not worth arguing about really.

Hence Grapplerdamus has designer created the term "Truly Woke" for those of us who actually have an idea what is actually going on.  There are quite a few here - some I don't agree with on every issue, but they know WTF they are talking about... others, of course, once they become calcified in their ideological stance - see only friends and enemies around them... either you lick the nuts of their favourite groups de jour or you are a mortal enemy - you see that kind of stupid non-thinking with most nasty cysts ... those who blindly yet unblinkingly follow the ideas of butchering children, or supporting murderous Arabs in Gaza (Eyeless In Gaza from too much application of the bleach) in their genocidal mania, or unthinkingly supporting every claim from 'certain groups' over the past and present and how they came to live in the gutters of Western life and their claim to hold total control over Australia ... along with their equally mindless rhetoric in place of actual discussion..... you all know who I mean.... and they are all clearly insane and should be in the asylums.

When you create your little stories to pimp yourself, Rocky, you'd be better off sticking to things other people know nothing about ... lest you come undone.

The term 'woke' has been part of the Black American lexicon for about 100 years. It simply means being "awake" to social injustice, particularly pertaining to Black people.

The first appearance of the word in an academic paper is n 1942. Hell, even MLK spoke about people needing to be "awake".

It still means the same thing now, it has simply extended it's meaning to cover more issues.
