"warnings of rainfall of up to 120mm and wind gusts of up to 125km/h." ... this is known as an "extreme weather event".

In 2023 the Global Climate Scientists got together to compare research model data findings from years of extensive research on the "Greenhouse Effect".

These highly educated and experienced men and women invest years at University before going out to gather, observe and make sense of what is going on with the global climate.

Essentially there is a continuing warming trend on average each year. 2023 was the hottest year on record in Australia as it happened by coincidence that was the same year the Global Climate Scientist research findings were released in a group statement.

Use of fossil fuels is releasing a huge amount of carbon particles into the air, into the atmosphere, much more than the atmosphere can handle.

And so the temperature rises year by year. As does the incidence count and ferocity of "extreme weather events".

Thankfully they said there is hope. When and if we as a global community of humans ban all fossil fuels by 2033, the rising temperature averages shall actually reverse, the atmosphere of this planet shall heal itself naturally over time.

So too the "extreme weather events" shall reduce in both the amount and intensity! The current worrying situation (to say the least) will in fact reverse if we ban fossil fuels by 2033.

If we do not ban fossil fuels by 2033 then the situation will very likely be irreversible for a fe2w very cogent reasons.

So let's ban fossil fuels by 2033, make a future ready for optimisation and further progression for the generations who arrive after the current generations living on this planet.

Question Are actuality and reality the same?

If so then how so?

If not then how not and wherefore art thee, similarity quotient to be termed the same?

Interestingly enough the word 'same" may be used before a noun or a pronoun.

And yet, I used it as a completion of a line.

Truth bomb: I don't know what a pronoun is.

Every single time I reach for my nylon string guitar with a built-in pickup, amp, 2 band equaliser and tuner, I am [currently] highly surprised and delighted by the fact that the "on" switch was not left on thereby not draining a $5 9volt battery.

It's perhaps the first time in my life I have automatically switched off the tuner or whatevs when it isn't being used five times in a row over a few days.

It's such a rare thing and now I think it is a habit I feel a sense of elation, hope for the future, and strangely, a five percent increase in maturity.

Fashion concept: remix the idea of shoes for summer: remove the shoes. Maintain the shoelaces and call that: the shoe. Tie shoelace to each for in an interwoven simplfshion and tie as usual, without too much nor too little pressure.

we got some phat sassy big breakbeat references with somme block-rocking backbeat spacious not overly loquacious ...
.. ah, it's obvious I have no idea about promotion. I do like improvising DJ sets not just ... well not anything exactly. Creating a song in realtime is a possibility but it needs the finest attention to detail to sound effortless.

And it needs variation otherwise if the same 16 bar groove is played for 90 minutes the crowd is guaranteed to start plotting revenge.

So this "song section" is a 4 bar groove machine of organic good vibe with a spacious rock-funk aura. And as mentioned, it needs vital variation air and ground support in the form of other audio uploads alongside it.

Believe it or not, last night I got lost in an area where I know *most* of the landscape like the back of my hand.

Bemused and interested, I kept on going and the road became narrower...
.. more and more the surroundings seemed to travel back in time until it felt like I was driving through a mysterious yet pleasant scene in the Shire from Tolkien's 3-part novel "Lord of thje Rings", or the precedinng novel, "The Hobbit".

And then arrived somewhere familiar.

the global ecosystem scientists reached and agreement after long, detailed, contextually comparative, deep and committed research and released thing endings in 2023: if we as a planetary community ban the acquisition and usage of all fossil fuels in ten years (by 2033) then the climate warming trend that is rising will in fact stop rising and return to cooler much more recommendable level.

If we do not ban fossil fuel use by 2033 then the dramatic ecological events and rising tglobal average temperatures shall continue to rise - and sadly, this shall be irreversible. Irrevocable as the cycle shall by then be too entrenched to change.

Sooooo .... how do we do this, practically? There is the huge question of transport.

I propose that every country in the world makes the agreement to ban all manufacture of fossil-fuel powered vehicles, of civil and commercial vehicles by January 2027.

Starting in January 2025 officially reducing the production of any fossil-fuel powered vehicle by 25 percent. Similarly so on June 1st 2025, January 1st 2026 and June 1st 2026 ... with those percentages being calculated from the amount being produced now. Replacing the production with electric vehicles.

And then, in 2029 a government sponsored program should be enacted where all fossil fuel vehicles are given free conversions to electric power. If the is not possible with some vehicles then electric powered viable alternatives would need to b3 offered on a free-time-based loan/

Celebrations are in order: "Clean up Australia Day" is functional and current. How ignorant that I thought it wasn't.

1st day and the 3rd month of each year.

Clean Up Australia Day occurs annually on the first Sunday in March. Get involved and take positive, practical action.

Epiphany Friday...

Let's reinstate "Clean Up Australia" day ... I don't think it would raise any potential controversy over the thing of such as it wasn't on any particular holiday or remembrance or celebration or otherwise day ... it was really big in the 1980's ... along with 3-day "Telethons" whereby a TV station would collect only donations for a particular charity.

Actually it could have been usually a 24 hour Telethon. I doubt it would have been a twelve hour Telethon as that ay have come across as somewhat underwhelming. 24 hour Telethon shows commitment, genuine fortitudinal preparation by the presenter as though training for a triathlon, and authentic departure from "the normality of usuality."

Anyhow it was only one day a year and unless I was away ... quintessentially ... at the time of defunctness declaration - if indeed there was any declaration nor decision of the sort - nobody told me how nor why "Clean Up Austria" day was to peremptorily be made .... "deprecated"?!?

Please, say it ain't so...
.. I think it is still in place, preserved by good-hearted community groups, keeping the faith alive.

Banning fossil fuels by 2033 is quite obviously a given, as the science is in and it's then that the last drop of fossil fuel releases carbon particles into the precious atmosphere. Then it's clean non-carbon releasing energy or nothing whatsoever. Candles and bicycle-powered radios I would imagine.

But there again there is the emotional climate of nation-wide communities ... where, without "Clean Up Australia" day held once a year, strange bits of rubbish collected from non-obvious distributed networks of vague messiness - potentially bringing the vibe down a bit each day if the mess is not addressed, especially with those half buried empty bottles that are just foot gashes waiting to happen.

Com on Australia... let's find the location of our elected and verified designated committee of "Clean Up Australia" day Elders and secretaries ... let's try and get advertising (discount for non-profits usually on television and via newspapers) ... encouraging, activating good vibe.

Epiphany Definition:

sudden good insightful (or seemingly insightful) thought pathway or perception breakthrough. Usually ((presumably) in relation to an individual and how they perceive the world around them or a seemingly intractable problem: often it is not an ego-focused nor self-oriented "topic of epiphany"

Topic of Epiphany could be a great title for a book. Potentially.

There are wondrous forces influencing the world as we make progress to banning fossil fuels by 2033 as the climate scientists have indicated after then climate disaster scenario is irreversible.

And so we change as a global community and change we must within 9 years now. To a complete transition to non-carbon-particle emission scenario. To renewable energy.

Nuclear option has already been proven unviable by three things: meltdowns, earthquakes, and tidal waves. Solar and ocean power seem to me to be the most dependable… with perhaps unlocked secrets of chlorophyll helping innovation regarding affordable viable storage thereof.

when people talk about the Paris Agreement, where more than ten years ago most of the countries in the United Nations roster agreed to what was defined as necessary to keep global warming to no more than one-and-a-half degrees celsius.

"Ratifying the Paris Agreement" involves the signatory countries taking active steps to reduce carbon output, as carbon particles in the atmosphere trap heat around the planet. Fossil Fuels when used release much carbon particle ratio very quickly into the atmosphere; "Petroleum Products" are refined from oil... this
.. this oil - and gas, also coal... they themselves are like "refined Dinosaur Age organic matter" ... they became what they are by being buried, subjected to pressure and such - over millions of years .

This is why they are called "Fossil Fuels" ... they arrive in the form they are now due to a millennia-long natural process; very long decomposition times of organic matter from the Dinosaur Age making what powered the Industrial Age in the 1950's onwards so seemingly miraculously.

In the mid-90's I just could not believe that about five big ol' rich bastards got together, pooled billions of dollars together with the express intention of saying this is not so. Of saying such scientific data is nonsense. I thought for a couple of years they were wasting their breath, time and money. But those fu***rs did it. For a while. Ten, maybe twenty years, they swayed opinion so that a majority of populations in the "developed world" believed that climate science was questionable in its claims.

Here's a scientifically researched claim made by climate scientists: the ice-caps of the glaciers in Greenland hold enough water that if melted, would raise ocean levels by 24 feet.

Here's another claim: the biggest river in the world is not visible on nor from land; it is a "deep ocean river" flowing from Southern Hemisphere (beginning somewhere offshore, deep, around the lower south east ocean area next to Australia) ...
.. from there, this "deep ocean river" known affectionally ass the "Trans-Atlantic Express" goes alllll the way up to the Northern Hemisphere, journey completion near the Hebrides; hence the quite salubrious climate around there.

If this, the "Transatlantic Express" is slowed, or even stopped by the slightly irritatingly cover-all noun-verb combo "climate change" ... then I do not actually know what will happen as I need to research more on this topic.

So that is the "Stop-Press Read All About It" message of today's post: that I myself need to do some more research. Fascinating, I know.

Ah yes, this topic does remind me, there is a country in Europe that is entirely powered by the electricity coming from the offshore ocean turbines that get turned forwards or backwards...

Either way for the turbine doesn't matter, they are fixed in place and the process works forwards or conversely; by harvesting the oscillation and sending the energy to shore for storage and usage .

Ocean swells (sensibly placed) hold much promise for those countries who don't experience or have access to a lot of sunlight.

Wind farms seem to have caused some ruffled feathers on a variety of levels due to it is in fact very very difficult to find a suitable location for any sort of sizeable wind farm. Also the idea is very foreign to most birds and so she wind farms are hurting individual birds and parts of entire flocks.

If I were to draw a simile I would compare it to trying to dam rivers then use water turbines to harvest energy. The idea is halfway there but the focus needs to be on payoff, swings and roundabouts. Dam a river and it could mess up 50-200km of riverine ecosystems upriver, possibly more downriver.

The ocean is not nearly as much of a "controllable and predictable" environment as a river... and yet, if we embrace the challenge, we might just never need to dam a single river ever again.
