MAN-Made Climate Change …

Well the Federal election is almost over … with very little mention of Man Made Climate Change! Climate deniers and the right wing of the Liberal and National parties, are probably quite relieved as global warming deniers are looking rather stupid at this point in time.

But what in fact does Man Made Climate actually mean. Yes, all you blokes out there put your collective hands in the air, hang your heads and seek remorse from women and all the other species on the planet.

So did I hear a few muffled murmurs from a section of disgruntled alpha-male types. Just have a think about it…

Men by and large control the means of production pumping out fossil fuels.

Men generally in charge of science bodies produce the theoretical knowledge for industry innovation, the underbelly of global warming. It’s the blokes controlling mines and (mainly) driving the big trucks, receiving the diesel fuel rebates, recklessly slashing the earth searching for iron coal uranium gold etc. Well Ok I haven’t mentioned Gina, but just read on …

Yes, you men out there, it really is a pretty mess you have got the poor old world into! However let’s engage with a little further analysis of the male species, because not all blokes should be tarred with this brush.

But perhaps at this point it might be a good idea to rephrase the overall primate structure. It runs a bit like this.

The alpha-male, old silverback heads the pack (think of Malcom here). He marches at the front in any tribal group movement.

Behind him come the tough alpas (Pyne, Bernardi etc.) who aspire to grab the top position at the time of his demise. They are of course, the fighting group, out to threaten any opposition from other tribes. (Note : a bit of failure here in the last election.]

Behind this group, in central position march the women and kids in a protected position. Once in a while historically a female might just sneak across into the alpha male pack and a fairly ferocious female might take charge … think of Golda Meir or Margaret Thatcher and have a little shudder but Julia was a consultative type.

Following in a happy meander are the non-alpha males. Generally they are nice even-tempered blokes who don’t have much interest in fighting and putting themselves over everyone else.

They keep to the rear guard, probably have nice time on the march observing Mother Nature, singing a song and grabbing a bit of fruit from a nearby tree. Genuine nice folk smelling the breeze and certainly not part of the alpha group reeking havoc in today’s climate-change devastated world!

Well from this traditional primate structure, we can clearly understand who is causing Man Made Climate Change.

While we don’t have time for a long term strategy for halting Climate Change but I will state it anyway.

It is up the women to make sure that no interaction or breeding takes place with this destructive Alpha male class.

Shun them, punish them, turn your backs women and enjoy peace harmony and tranquility with the non-alpha blokes.

Followed everywhere by her two dogs Percy and Fino who generally agree on all subjects, only occasionally deserting the conversation in the chase for samba deer! Slight differences in logic can therefore be attributed to the two woofers leaving their critical post!
