Perhaps have a listen to Professor Hans Joachim Schellnhuber(sorry he is not as slick as Monckton) who has no apparent interest in wealth redistribution in this country and could make a comfortable living doing any number of jobs:

To put some things into perspective for you:

TONY MAHER: People shouldn't take this scare campaign seriously at all. The Treasury modelling shows that the coal industry will be doubled by 2050.

They are making a million per mine worker in profits, not revenue, profits. BHP made $10.6 billion for six months this year, double what it costs for repairing the Queensland floods and cyclone damage. This is not an industry that's in trouble
Fairdinkum Sudsy, are you purely on this forum to get up everyone's nose?
If 99% of the contributors on here declared the sky was blue, I'm sure you'd argue it was pink bloody polka-dots!
