I tweet every now and then. Never anything terribly important; just to draw attention to myself. Anyway, the Prime Minister (Scott Morrison) announced a couple of weeks back that he was going to the Glasgow Climate Summit and as he was having some trouble convincing the Nationals to agree to whatever he had in mind about global warming. I made some crack about him probably having to type up Australia’s climate policy on the plane on the way over. LOL.

I got my Likes and my shot of dopamine and that, I thought, was that. A few days later though, when people who don’t watch Mad as Hell happen across my vaguely political tweets and assume I’m as serious about it all as they are, a comment appeared from someone with a lot of numbers after their name pointing out that China had thousands of coal-fired power plants and we only had twenty-four, the implication being that we shouldn’t bother doing anything by 2050 or at all because it wouldn’t make much difference anyway. In other words, make hay while the Sun shines regardless of how hot it’s going to get.
