A two-megawatt windmill is made up of 260 tons of steel that required 300 tons or iron ore and 170 tons of coking coal, all mined, transported and produced by hydrocarbons. It hold 700 gallons of oil and hydraulic fluid, and like car these need to be replaced every 9 months. People might fall for the idea that we can merrily run on sunshine and breezes, alone, but with a few trillion dollars worth of mythical mega-batteries providing backup for a few minutes, it could spin until it falls apart over and over again and never generate as much energy as was invested in building it.

The sale of historic defence sites has nothing to do with “funding the military” and everything to do with Labor’s mission to “decolonize” Australia. This is an active attempt to destroy heritage sites of Australians and erase a proud and strong culture

@Dane90012 Hi Dane, Sorry I can’t supply any info on that site. The Germans constructed numerous large gracious timber buildings in pre-WW1 Rabaul, Kavieng, Wewak, etc. All were destroyed by prolonged Allied bombing as the war progressed. Concrete floor posts can often still be found.

The photo of Thomas was apparently taken outside the German residence in Kavieng. Do you have any knowledge of this building @DWB55

Nuclear power represents a sustainable energy future with economic prosperity. Solar and wind power represent grid instability and energy rationing, which is government regulated. That is why climate alarmists and most so-called “scientists” oppose nuclear. They are hard left, arguably Marxist, and don’t want the free market to sort it out. They want to control energy so they can control you.

@gw14b11a32a Yes. There’s a a lot to notice in that photo.

@DWB55 Great photo Dennis; the variety of slouch hat styles is a stand out as well as the range finder and Vickers details 👌

July 1943 Lt H. Egan, of the Australian 2/3rd Commandos, is at left with a pipe and holding his Thompson SMG. He was killed in action a few days later on 21/7/43. They are manning a Vickers MG in a jungle gunpit on a humid hotly contested ridgetop near Salamaua, New Guinea coast.

July 1943 New Guinea: New Guineans cross a vine bridge over the Francisco River enroute to front line. They carried mortar shells, stores and wounded soldiers on their shoulders over some of the toughest terrain in the world. 3 naked Australian engineers are at work in the river.

Some think @matt_barrie is a savant, others know he’s on the pulse Know this. He is absolutely spot on when he calls out how dangerously close Australia stands at the cliff of economic collapse Without cheap energy we cannot produce. Manufacturing has been systematically killed

July 14 1943, New Guinea: Sturdy carriers of the Mekeo people continue their work bringing key supplies forward as engineers of the 11th Australian Infantry Division use hand tools to laboriously carve a road through humid jungle from Bulldog outpost through the mountains to Wau.

@freakWSA My apologies. You are correct. That damage is definitely caused by climate change. I presume your property damage is receiving extensive media coverage.

@DWB55 💯 it’s climate change now

Carnage at my mates house up in Brissie..I’ve called the SES on his behalf. Stay safe everyone

Name someone that could do a BETTER job as Prime Minister than Starmer? I will go first Mr Bean….
