Propaganda works!

“44% think food and drink would be safer if it had no carbon or CO2 in it.”

Let us pause for a moment and recognise the deep ignorance of our beloved brethren and sistren around the world. Please remember all those wonderful people force-fed the illogical propaganda of their green masters and who now believe the following seven impossible things before breakfast.

Of the Australian public, and no doubt our own “public”

• 93% think CO2 constitutes more than 1% of the atmosphere
• 53% believe climate change causes tsunamis
• 47% think CO2 is ‘pollution’

• 40% believe climate change causes earthquakes
• 37% believe climate change causes volcanic eruptions
• 37% think we should try to reduce carbon in the body

Nothing I might say could make it sound any better. But those people need your help…

Serious observers are interpreting this shock result as a sign that students are now impatiently rejecting the relentless extremist propaganda taught under the guise of compulsory environmental-studies classes in British schools, confirming opinion-poll findings that the voters are no longer frightened by “global warming” scare stories, if they ever were.
