The change in the global climate is a natural phenomenon….happens once every hundred thousand years.

Nothing humans can do about it.
It is a geographic cycle over a very long period of time when modern day scientists start to understand the cyclic nature cycle

CASH IS STILL KING​

Sociologists reckoned that only three out of the 5Cs remain relevant – cash, cars and condominiums.
Assoc Prof Tan described cash as “fundamental to achieving the trappings of success”, while it is not surprising for cars and private properties to still be seen as markers of social mobility.
In property-hungry Singapore, a condominium is largely regarded as a desirable investment option.
But sky-rocketing Certificate of Entitlement (COE) premiums are putting car ownership out of reach for many Singaporeans. With a reliable local public transport system and a variety of ride-hailing options, people will question the need to own a car, regardless of status symbol, said Dr Straughan.
After hitting new highs in October’s second bidding exercise, COE premiums closed lower in all categories in the latest bidding exercise on Nov 8.
Nathan, who bought a used car last year, said his decision was not driven by prestige – instead, it was about having the freedom to head out until late.
That said, sky-high COE premiums are giving him second thoughts about the need for a car.

When it comes to condominiums, the Singaporeans who spoke to CNA agreed that private properties make good assets, but they also wonder what counts as a home.
Mr Dinesh Dayani, 36, and Ms Lee said getting a condominium would not be ideal if it stretches one’s finances thin or involves having to work harder and sacrifice family time.
Mr Mohamad Shaifulbahri, 37, said his parents mulled over the option of moving to a condominium when he was younger but realised that what others saw as perks, like access to a gym and pool, did not appeal to them.
The question of whether to sell their HDB flat in Tampines was back on the family’s mind. Property prices in the estate are at an all-time high, and it is getting harder for his parents to keep up with the maintenance of their maisonette home, said Mr Shaifulbahri.
“The practical considerations are there but is a house just a house?” said the arts practitioner, who explored this question in his theatrical walking show called Tampines Boy.
“There’s sentimental attachment too, to the house and the neighbourhood. For me, houses can’t be seen as just a way of profiting.”

American oil fields are gushing again, helping to drive down fuel prices but also threatening to undercut efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Only three years after U.S. oil production collapsed during the pandemic, energy companies are cranking out a record 13.2 million barrels a day, more than Russia or Saudi Arabia. The flow of oil has grown by roughly 800,000 barrels a day since early 2022, and analysts expect the industry to add another 500,000 barrels a day next year.

Oil market caught by surprise as US output surges Record supply from world’s top producer complicates Opec+ maths and White House climate push An oil drilling rig in the Permian Basin, the most prolific oilfield in North America

A heavy weight is leaning on global oil markets as prices slide to five-month lows: record US supply.

American crude oil production reached a fresh all-time high of 13.2mn barrels a day in September, according to figures released last week, more than any other country and accounting for about one in eight barrels of global output.

The added volumes have outpaced official forecasts and called into question claims of a US oil industry constricted by Wall Street or environmental regulations. They are causing difficulties for the Opec+ oil cartel, which last week agreed to deepen cuts to its members’ own volumes in a bid to prop up faltering prices.

The new supplies are also creating discomfort for the Biden administration, as US officials join a push to phase out fossil fuels at the UN climate talks in Dubai. West Texas Intermediate crude on Wednesday fell below $70 a barrel for the first time since July, a move analysts said was driven in part by higher-than-expected production from US shale fields.

Death to the globalist anti-carbon cult. :rolleyes:

It's no longer mere incompetence or greed at this point... it's treason. :cool:

It is my opinion that anyone who promotes the anti-carbon 'sustainability' nonsense, much less implement national policies based on it, should be immediately put to death. No need for trial. :whistling:
