http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_warming these might help educate so you can understand How critical global warming and its effects


to say that the drought only effects the rural areas is a misunderstood concept , if the food supply is interupted in any way shape or form then we all pay the price , By the prime minister cutting irrigation to the farms he jepardizes the farm economy and therfore the food supply , I realize Australia does import a large supply of food , but they need to export to help offset the costs of bringing in the imports or the change in supermarket prices in the cities will have a great effect on all ..

The lake we get our water from is 29,000 acres and 316 feet deep. Poland Spring water uses the same aquifier. What you'll pay $1.79 a liter for, I get out of the tap. They did a study last year when some "conservationists" were concerned that Poland Spring, which is owned by Nestles, was taking too much water out of the springs. Then it was determined that the amount they bottled and sold amounted to 3/4 of an inch off the top of Sebago Lake. There's so much water in that lake it would be impossible to make even a dent in it.

note to self: pee on the surface of sebage lake...

Explain why this year in the Sydney Metro area we have had above average rainfall? Not everything is explained with theories and science you retard!



I never said gun violence didn't occur in Sydney, all I said was I have never felt scared enough to arm myself just to go out at night.



What reports you may have read obviously are false. The Prime Minister has no say over farm irrigation despite what some hack wrote. I see I have to take the step to ignoring your posts again. I thought you might have mellowed but I see now that once a redneck, always a redneck.

oh and p.s I earn enough to affaord to buy my produce despite any possible rise in cost

Here is actually a sensible spin on the debate if you can be bothered reading it all, it highlights why I don't feel the need to bear arms whilst many Americans do...

Gun Laws - Australia Vs America

heaven forbid somebody read the sidney morning herald and learn soemthing you didnt know .. I find it funny when you can bash the USa but when somebody finds facts on your fair country which is a great place by the way you get all bent out of shape , I more then admit there is to much gun violence in the states however the point is your fair country has its own problems .. such as there emmisions of green house gas being double what any other country is which directly effects global warming . http://www.smh.com.au/news/environment/aus...9601374518.html


and I earn enough to pay for my food as well ,as well as the 4.00 per gallon gas that is coming but thats not the point .. DUH

If anyone's Poland Spring water tastes funny, you'll know who to blame. On a side note, one of my workers was eating an egg salad sandwhich from Tim Horton's and bit into a metal screw. Almost chipped a tooth. They gave him a five dollar gift certificate. Cheap bastards.

HEY-OH!

Canada has so much water I pour the stuff down the drain and spray it haphazardly all over my lawn.


he's lucky. if i worked there I would have made him pay for the screw.

damn the tooth fairy would have paid him more ...

After all, they are prizes!

Ohhh a spark plug!

spotted

Isn't Tim Horton's a Canadian company? So you're saying getting screwed is extra? In Maine, it's just considered part of the service.

First you get the sugar, then u get the power.... then, you get the women!

Are you serious?? Gun Violence in Australia no where near compares to what it does here. It's not to say deaths by guns NEVER OCCUR, but to compare there levels of crime and gun violence to ours is absurd. There is no comparison. AS far as global warming, the earth has a way of evening itself out, it goes through periods like we are experiencing now. America also has had plenty of droughts in area, people had to conserve water. It's a part of life, you take what you got and go with it. Is it hotter in AU ummm yeah OF COURSE look where it is located. Just like it can get pretty cold in Canada, I really can not understand your logic 3/4 of the time. If you don't want your neighbor to raise 100 pigs next to you buy enough property it isn't a problem of live in city lines where it isn't allowed. You choose where you want to live. We plan on buying land and building on it, when we do we will buy enough that we won't have to worry about pesky neighbors.

"Stupid is as Stupid does!" Forrest Gump

3/4 of the time? I can understand him anytime!!!

You CAN , now it all makes sense ...

there was no comparison made , just stated the fact that there is gun violence in other countrys as well , probably not to the point as the USA .. but there is gun violence evrywere . the logic is simple , the USa has gun violence and a stupid pres, Au has serious CO 2 emissions , a serious drought , global warming is effecting it ,as well as its own drug and gun deaths, in other words its not the perfect country as Mr Bondi would have us all believe , he has bashed our gun laws , our president , our war effort , our gun violence , I was just pointing out by using articles from his own area newspapers that his country has problems as well , and they all our life changing problems , if a person has to move its life changing in my book if someone dies its life changing , So hope that helps ya , to put it simple for simple minded people . People that live in glass houses should not throw stones ,

Ive been thru the 1988 -1989 drought of the midwest , your right a person just has to adapt .its tough on the pocket book but its life ... I think my point to you is simple , Your preaching to the choir ..

As far as the hogs go I was here first , I shouldnt have to move . and I bought 1000 acres but it lays next to a highway and the hogs are across the road ..

when you do indeed buy land you better buy big and build in the middle . As far as city life thats a whole different set of problems , the garbage , the screaming kids , the late night partys , parking , parking , parking , traffic . neighbers infringing on your property , neighbers that dont clean ther propertys and so on . its to each there own and we all make Choices .. Its all good .. in summary the USa is far from perfect but its a free country so far anyway and its the land of the free and the home of the brave ,, and its all we got those of us that live here ..and were proud of it as you all our of your home land .. and for that I salute ya ...

We like to got that extra mile.


Except Canada. We are the only perfect country left.


Have you been talking to my neighbours?

Canada is a great place indeed , toronto is the only city I have traveled to but it was alot of fun ..and I felt safe , but hell I feel safe walking around chicago even south of the loop .. LOL


well Yeah Joe called , had a few complaints about his neighber, I hadnt made the connection to you .....

Have a look in your own backyard 3d b4 u preach to me about CO2 emmisions!

Who said I had to move???

yep there just alike ..that was the point ..

Your neighber ... lol or at least he hoped hes tired of the moaning ...

That might even be a joke if anyone can decipher the language spoken above?

I believe it's America that tops the charts on ruining this planet as far as Global Warming, we are the top country in everything when you factor in amount of people and stuff for polluting and all the stuff creating the global warming.

Bondi never said there was no violence or gun violence, he never said AU was perfect. He said he couldn't imagine having to live in fear feeling like you need a gun to protect yourself and I agree. It sucks

I mean really AU must really suck, They don't work there people to death, they give there employees 4 week paid vacations starting off not after working 15 years on the job. The give mothers paid maternity leave more than 6 weeks because they see the value of family. They are a very laid back country who work to live not live to work. The horror of it all. Not to mention there crime rates don't even put a dent in ours.

Now yes America is a great place when you compare it to , Iraq, Korea, Darfur, Iran and so on. But when you go boot to boot with other free countries, I don't think we are the best. We have a lot of problems here in America but we are a country that acts like our shit don't stink while pointing out the smell of everyone else's.

As far as City life, I live in the city, and it isn't like that at all. Depends on what city you are living in. I have lived in Heavy Populated Cities and Smaller Cities. I have lived in communities and out in BFE where I had no neighbors, You can live in a city and not experience the things you mentioned.

Here, Here!

I never proclaimed perfection, I said exactly what you quoted me as saying, but for the betterment of his argument he saw fit to skew my quote. We have problems like any other country in the world but after travelling a good portion of that world over the years I have come to realise I take alot of the shit you mentioned above for granted, and so many countries fall behind in so many ways. All this and ppl must consider that Australia has a poppulation of 20 mil, thats not alot when you think of our size. With that, i think we as a nation have got to be in the top 5 most desirable places to live

What was that about people in glass houses 3d?

Carbon Emmisions

I didnt have time to read this this morning , cause I have to fix a window , but I think I already agreed to this above ...

You agreed we output similar emmisions.

I'll give you the rundown because you seem to be so time poor (even though you've posted everywhere). The USA output's almost 25% of the world's carbon emissions, Australia a mere 1.5%

ok for the population what is it there Mr Scientist ? .and back at ya a double even . wow that does feel good !!!!
