Carbon Tax: Toxic Tax or Tax on Toxins?

I went to Federal Parliament today and watched the politicans from the public gallery. This is what I felt inspired to communicate. I sent it to some politicians to send out my feeling about these issues.

Enjoy.

REAL HOPES for A Climate of Change

I am the public gallery observing the art of politics as retaining walls,

For this is a questioning time,

Where the public must ask questions just-in-time,

Without notice,

Without permission,

For the politicians must take notice,

Of the public will as well-being,

Or face an electoral spill,

That is impossible to clean up,

For there is no clean coal in roles,

Coral is the canary in the coal mine,

And as it loses colour,

It stops singing,

The one song.

It matters not who said what in the past,

Life is change,

The future is what matters,

And we must change the future,

For to be the change we wish to see,

We must come clean,

For earth changes are not a football game of winners and losers,

Where one seeks to gain at the expense of the other,

Where tactics seek only to block and tackle,

To discredit and shackle debate,

For it is getting late and we are in desperate need for real leadership,

Rising above self interest,

Before it is too late.

Friends, we are a global commons,

A creative commons,

Stewards of a 4 billion year old planet,

Yet we arrived 1 minute to midnight,

The oceans do not demarcate by limits on national debates,

The ice caps do not stop melting into gulf streams of opposing currents,

As stagnation rather than stagflation snap freezes Europe,

Costing 2.4 to 24 trillion over 4 decades,

For there are no accolades from the next generation,

As the Euro plunges beyond zero emissions,

And coral bleaching of the worlds Great Barrier Reef,

Renders ocean forests as graveyards that transform buried treasures,

Costing $38 billion in lost tourism,

Yet the real deficit is the biggest loser of the greatest natural wonder of your world.

Where are the solutions to human pollution?

What is our shared respons-ability?

Do we have the ability to respond to global change?

I watch as many are sitting down trying to suspend standing orders,

As double barreled questions,

Play double jeopardy,

Dammed if you do answer,

Dammed if you don’t answer,

Yet damming the supply of truth,

Rings the division bell globally,

Raising global temperatures to boiling point,

Moving to the point of no return,

As flood pans cause depressions,

In the future.

The economic arguments have already received a Stern Report,

As legal minds dominate the parliamentary triangle,

Seeking angles to subvert the equal-lateral triangle of balanced power,

Misrepresentation by occupation and intent,

Disinformation by public relations and lament,

Dumbing down public spectators instructed not to take notes,

Directed to only listen not participate,

As many in the public gallery are silently searching for honest brokers,

As the world goes broke,

It is time for Founders of commissions in the future,

Without retainers or censure,

For they are sustainers of free energy and re-new-able resources,

Understanding electromagnetic ley-lines of self inquiry,

As solar flares send warning flares,

For life on earth is not in balance on ice sheets of immovable tundra,

Only a sacred balance of earth systems align with a uni-verse,

As political adversity wastes energy in point scoring,

Rather than coordinating points of future action from zero point.

We the people demand action now not words;

We the people want community councils and public forums to get to work on future scenarios;

We the people are the REAL HOPES for a re-new-able vision of community in harmony as this is the true nature of human’s being authentic rather than being seen to be;

REAL HOPES is the future where:

R esponsibility is the ability to respond,

E mpathy for future generations so we can stand in their shoes,

A wareness of the consequences of cataclysmic events and obligations for climate refugees,

L ove as the answer when we get past fear based campaigns,

H onesty as the best policy when actioning truth and reconciliation across spectrums rather than denial,

O neness of our planet is the SEE level that rises above adversity,

P eace leaves the argument to make a room with a view for wisdom,

E njoyment finds the joy in life as the real wealth of nations,

S ervice as public service employed to serve the people by the people.

Friends, it is time to change the climate on the hill,

To find REAL HOPES in enlightened sermons on the mount,

To speak out to all people the truth of who we are and why we are here,

Questioning times up to 2012,

For it was never economy but human ecology that mattered,

For we are our better natures,

And it is the nature of people to

share and care for children.

For we will find solutions to pollution,

We will unite with one voice,

This is the power of choice,

The gold bar or the earth?

For our birthright is to grow old,

Healthy and happy,

Balanced and free,

That there is no opposition,

In unity.
