"Fix visas to solve rural jobs crisis" (CP, 13/7). Here's how in three easy steps. Drop all covid mandates and stop nanny-stating people's health. Taper welfare programs to motivate people to work. Slash taxes in rural areas by at least 25%. Of course, our wall-to-wall Labor governments won't do that because they want everyone dependent on, obedient to, and voting for Big Brother ALP. Juss Sayen, Cairns Does anyone know where I can get some new conspiracy theories? All my old ones have come true. Curious, Cairns Albo (13/07) we don't need to do anything at all to reach "net zero" because our forests, grasslands and seas already absorb six times as much plant food as we produce. You've drunk far too much green Kool-aid, mate, and it's no wonder Labor voters are already suffering buyer's remorse. Danny, Manunda So, the fully-vaxxed cruise ship has a covid outbreak while the gov't tries to convince us the jabs are effective and at the same time pushes boosters. In other words, the vaccines are NOT effective or there wouldn't be a covid outbreak on a cruise ship and there'd be no need for boosters. I'm getting rather sick of gov't treating us as if we're all as stupid as they are. Tony, Gordonvale In light of Shinzo Abe's assassination with a homemade gun, you'd reckon our politicians would be less likely to push the Davos agenda. Sure, the Davos mob might threaten them, but there's a lot more ordinary Aussies than there are private jet owners. Wil, Herberton Re, "Aussies told ‘shake out of Covid comfort zone’". Symptoms of the Omicron BA.5 variant include runny nose, sneezing, and sore throat. It's just like the common cold! Why is the government which has been wrong about everything still trying to scare the gullible? It's not what we pay taxes for. Francine, Mooroobool All you people who mocked vaccine sceptics as tinfoil hatters for saying the jabs alter your genes need to read this published peer-reviewed study from Sweden - www.mdpi.com/1467-3045/44/3/73/htm - because that's exactly what they do. Read it and weep - and stop directing your anger at those who tried to warn you and focus it on those who just might be trying to kill you. Chloe, Kuranda Jill Biden called Latin Americans "Tacos" in a speech. How racist! Republican, Cairns Sri Lanka is out of food because of the WEF globalist green policies that Albo is pushing (13/7). Those dangerously bad policies are being forced on us by both mainstream parties. Why are our career politicians loyal to foreign billionaires but not to us? Where will they hide when we start going hungry? One Tooth Wally, Cairns North If you watch Fox News host Tucker Carlson's editorial on Hunter Biden's laptop (on YouTube, dated July 12) and the Biden family's close association with China you'll see how China effectively controls the US government. Carlson even mentions how China seeks to dominate western countries' energy systems via the climate hoax and wind and solar power. Aussies who spruik renewables are unwittingly assisting Chinese hegemony - or they're working for China like the Bidens. Ancient Steve, Redlynch Taiwan's Ministry of the Interior says "There were 10,943 babies born in June 2022 which decreased 27.66% compared with the same month last year." Also, "There were 21,033 deaths in June 2022 which increased 26.41% compared with the same month last year." But the vaccines are safe and effective, right, even for women of childbearing age? Rosalyn, Smithfield The state ALP's plan to spend nearly $3.5 million of our money to get jobs for people is so insulting. All they need to do is get their jackboot off businesses' throats by cutting excessive regulation and there'd be plenty of jobs for everyone. Russell, Mareeba

Keith Hill (14/7) can't have visited the Reef. If he had, he'd know it's vast and it's fine. Even the Australian Institute of Marine Science has admitted it's in great shape. I was out there Tuesday and Wednesday and it was sensational. Book a Reef trip, Keith, and relax. Mariner, Portsmith Several weeks ago, actor Matthew McConaughey acting as a White House spokesmuppet failed to mention the Uvalde school murderer's well-flagged history of shooting random people in the street with a pellet gun. How did someone with that record pass the background checks? And why did the police stand around outside while he shot kids inside? Who told them to stand down? It's a well-known Democrat tactic to disarm law-abiding civilians by allowing criminal shooters to kill as many innocents as possible. Westie, Cairns In June in this very paper, the BOM said July would be hotter than average. As it turns out, July has been colder than average. In other words, BOM's temperature prediction was out by several degrees over just a few weeks. But we're shutting down electricity generation that provides cheap and reliable power because the BOM and others predict a temperature change of a degree or two warmer in several decades time. This seems to be a very stupid policy. Juss Sayen, Cairns All you people who mocked vaccine sceptics as tinfoil hatters for saying the jabs alter your genes need to read this published peer-reviewed study from Sweden - www.mdpi.com/1467-3045/44/3/73/htmCIMB | Free Full-Text | Intracellular Reverse Transcription of Pfizer BioNTech COVID-19 mRNA Vaccine BNT162b2 In Vitro in Human Liver Cell Line - MDPI Preclinical studies of COVID-19 mRNA vaccine BNT162b2, developed by Pfizer and BioNTech, showed reversible hepatic effects in animals that received the BNT162b2 injection. Furthermore, a recent study showed that SARS-CoV-2 RNA can be reverse-transcribed and integrated into the genome of human cells. In this study, we investigated the effect of BNT162b2 on the human liver cell line Huh7 in vitro. www.mdpi.com- because that's exactly what they do. Read it and weep - and stop directing your anger at those who tried to warn you and focus it on those who just might be trying to kill you. Chloe, Kuranda A Texas Senate inquiry has heard that the transition to renewables has been the longest train wreck in energy history. This is with regard to Texas power systems failing during very cold winter weather, directly causing the deaths of hundreds of people, and being on the verge of failure in their current hot summer weather. But our ideologically-driven leaders are determined to repeat the Texas mistakes "to save lives". It only makes sense if it's a Chinese conspiracy to destroy western energy systems. Brad, Atherton If Cairns CBD's local windmill huggers love their giant whirling monuments to technical ignorance so much, why don't they build them close to where they live? The hills around Cairns are windy enough, so why are pristine forests around here being destroyed for them? Batman, Ravenshoe Regarding the apparent incompetence of the Uvalde local police, CP 14/7, Democrat activists embedded in local police services have been tasked with making local police look as incompetent as possible so the Democrats can achieve their dream of a federal police under Congressional control. Their version of the Gestapo. It's more likely to result in Texas leaving the Union. The Texit movement is building rapidly. Republican, Cairns "Missing our state share". (CP, 14/7). Yes, this is a long term trend. We vote ALP MPs into ALP governments and we miss out every time. ALP MPs are not our representatives in government, they are the ALP's representatives in our FNQ electorates. Einstein defined insanity as doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. That shows a majority of FNQ voters are insane. Ex-ALP Voter, Cairns There's staff shortages in the air travel industry (14/7) because the risks of pericarditis etc from covid vaccinations have been known (except to policy makers and corporations) from the outset. Pilots that want to maintain their health to be fit to fly (like Graham Hood) were pushed out. Pilots that were vaccinated are dying of "unknown causes" at a very high rate - including while flying. That's reality and (hopefully) one day it will be on the front page of every newspaper. MW, Redlynch It's only "hysteria around wind and solar", Richard (14/7), if you like electricity to be available when you flick that switch. The real hysteria is about carbon dioxide, a rare gas that plants rely on for survival and which can only "trap heat" for one billionth of a second. One Tooth Wally, Cairns North Well, I was at Walkamin at noon on Thursday and there was plenty of wind but not even one wind turbine was turning. That wind farm is a very expensive bit of equipment so it's strange that it wasn't in use. Rick, Yungaburra Keith Hill, (letters, 14/7), what you've said has absolutely no basis in reality and is entirely fictional. EVs are expensive, slow to charge and range limited. Our grid doesn't have the capacity to charge them and renewables won't help. Petrol and diesel are not limited as they are abiotic. They are produced deep in the earth and are the second most common liquid after water. Put the bong down, Keith. Travis, Kanimbla Regarding "8 billion mouths to feed" (CP, 14/7), just watch the Malthusian left melt down about "too many people" while at the same time forcing fertiliser plants to close when they are why we can presently feed about 10 billion people. Sri Lanka is a prime example of what happens to food production when you try to revert to pre-industrial farming methods - people go hungry, burn down the PM's residence, and force the political elites to flee overseas. Russell, Mareeba PM Overseasy and Premier Palletstack are desperately trying to beat up another covid scare (14/7) regardless of Farr's Law of Viral Attenuation. This can only be to advance the WEF agenda of compulsory digital ID and constant tracking and a CCP-style social credit score. That way if you criticize the government on Facebook they can lock you in your home and starve you. Did you vote for that? Geoff, Kuranda There has been a spike in childhood depression and suicide directly attributable to covid lockdowns and associated end-of-the-world doomsaying. Young children have suffered developmental delays due to masking. All to keep the elderly alive for a few more weeks. Now they're edging towards more of the same. Worst governments in history. Gavin, Bentley Park Two and a half years into the covid drama I genuinely despair for for people who still fall for the government propaganda and who have not found time to read any original studies, on the alleged effectiveness of masks or any other aspect of this drama. You cannot comply your way out of tyranny. Alannah, Herberton

The mule-headed seas have refused to rise and the polar ice has stubbornly refused to melt in line with carbon alarmists predictions, so transitioning from reliable power to renewables (15/7) is a solution in search of a crisis. Destroying reliable power will be devastating to our standard of living. Haley, Woree Dr William Happer, professor emeritus of physics at Princeton University, recently said, "There isn't a climate crisis. There will not be a climate crisis. It is utter nonsense." But our climate loonies will say they know better. F.M.D., Yorkeys Knob Notice that all the problems Bega cheese is facing (CP, 15/07) are the consequence of the policies of governments here and elsewhere? We could all be so prosperous if we had a whole lot less government. Juss Sayen, Cairns "PM calls covid crisis meeting" (CP, 15/7). Are people waking up to the fact that covid has been politics all along? Or do you still think the government that doesn't want to build roads for you to drive on or dams to store your drinking water or hospitals to heal you and which can't really afford to pay your pension wants what is best for you? Curious, Cairns All you people who mocked vaccine sceptics as tinfoil hatters for saying the jabs alter your genes need to read this published peer-reviewed study from Sweden - www.mdpi.com/1467-3045/44/3/73/htmCIMB | Free Full-Text | Intracellular Reverse Transcription of Pfizer BioNTech COVID-19 mRNA Vaccine BNT162b2 In Vitro in Human Liver Cell Line - MDPI Preclinical studies of COVID-19 mRNA vaccine BNT162b2, developed by Pfizer and BioNTech, showed reversible hepatic effects in animals that received the BNT162b2 injection.

Read it and weep - and stop directing your anger at those who tried to warn you and focus it on those who just might be trying to kill you. Chloe, Kuranda Do people even know that the "National Cabinet" has no supporting legislation and undermines the sovereignty of our federation of states? They might if we still taught our Constitution in schools. One Tooth Wally, Cairns North The price of everything from cheese to fuel is going up rapidly and the Reserve Bank is rumoured to be eyeing a whole percentage point rise next month while the government puts even more restrictions on businesses and people who prefer to manage their own health. Why? Well the globalists' economy isn't going to Great Reset itself you know. Barry, Parramatta Park RE - editorial, 15/07 - weather is cyclical, sometimes warmer, sometimes cooler, but runaway global warming is not possible as the water cycle works like an air conditioner. The dangerous climate change stories are political and completely wrong. Terry, Atherton Now that covid (15/7) is endemic, what's the point of doing lockdowns, masks, regular boosters, etc, unless you do them forever? Donnie, Manoora It's looking like the real collusion in the 2020 US election was between the media corporations and the Democrats. If the corporate media had honestly reported on Hunter's laptop, and the Biden family-CCP ties it reveals, globalist Joe Biden would have lost the Democrat primaries to socialist Bernie Sanders. Republican, Cairns "Solomons China base will not happen: Albo". Yeah, righto. My Overseasy's ego is now so inflated from all his Airbus hours that he actually thinks China gives a damn what he reckons. Geoff, Kuranda Senior Citizen, it might be your "last blink on earth" but I'm in my 30s and your homeless friends are damaging my trade. How about you take some in if you're so fond of them? CBD Trader, CBD Last year in Qld with 7 deaths from Covid, all elderly, the NRL had to play to empty stadiums because of the “risk”. This year with 40,000 “cases” and dozens of deaths we had 52,000 at the Origin match (CP, 15/7). What changed? Answer:- the political expediency around this nonsense. Footy Fan, Cairns Rick asks why the Mt Emerald wind farm has been switched off (CP, 15/7). It's because one of the four generators at our nearest reliable synchronous power station (Stanwell) is offline for maintenance and with no cloud there is too much unreliable asynchronous solar in the mix, particularly rooftop solar which can't be switched off. JS, Edge Hill Keith Hill, (letters, 14/7), what you've said has absolutely no basis in reality and is entirely fictional. EVs are expensive, slow to charge and range limited. Our grid doesn't have the capacity to charge them and renewables won't help. Petrol and diesel are not limited as they are abiotic. They are produced deep in the earth and are the second most common liquid after water. Put the bong down, Keith. Travis, Kanimbla

If climate change is making the weather more unpredictable, why would we want to rely on the weather for an essential service like electricity? Curious, Cairns Are you wondering what difference there is between the Teals and the Greens? The Teals aren't as bright as the Greens, but they're a lot richer. Juss Sayen, Cairns While lecturing us about "reducing emissions", Albo has taken 63 private plane fights in 90 days. Hypocrite, much? Underwhelmed, Cairns I noticed that the Pacific Islands want us to "do more" on global warming, but they didn't ask China - the most prolific builder of coal power stations - to "do more" too. Why is that? Curious, Cairns All you people who mocked vaccine sceptics as tinfoil hatters for saying the jabs alter your genes need to read this published peer-reviewed study from Sweden - www.mdpi.com/1467-3045/44/3/73/htmCIMB | Free Full-Text | Intracellular Reverse Transcription of Pfizer BioNTech COVID-19 mRNA Vaccine BNT162b2 In Vitro in Human Liver Cell Line - MDPI Preclinical studies of COVID-19 mRNA vaccine BNT162b2, developed by Pfizer and BioNTech, showed reversible hepatic effects in animals that received the BNT162b2 injection.

Read it and weep - and stop directing your anger at those who tried to warn you and focus it on those who just might be trying to kill you. Chloe, Kuranda Countries loaded up with too much sovereign debt include Sri Lanka, Ghana, Pakistan, Egypt, Lebanon, Peru, El Salvador, Argentina, Tunisia, Ethiopia, Turkey and South Africa, but the IMF and World Bank are negotiating with them all to load them up even more. Sri Lanka and Ghana have already collapsed. Imagine how many people will be starving and displaced when, not if, these other countries collapse. This is a disaster that the bankster-class depopulationists will be proud of. Annie, Ravenshoe "QUEENSLAND’S rental crisis has reached catastrophic levels as rents soar by 20 per cent in some regions" (16/7). Mmyes, Clive Palmer warned you. Maybe you should have listened to the big fella. Danny, Kamerunga On sunscreens, (CP, 16/07), I often wonder how hundreds of thousands of generations of us survived before such things were invented. Humans survived the extra sunlight of the the Minoan Warm Period (≈3000YBP), the Roman Warm Period (≈2000YBP), and the Medieval Warm Period (≈1000YBP) - all of which had stronger sunlight and higher temperatures than we have today. Nikky, Manoora Keith Hill (16/7) I live on my yacht and I visit different places on the Reef all the time and never where the tourist crowds go. Bleached patches are small and rare and are part of the coral's natural cycle. When local conditions change, corals expel symbionts (bleach) and take on new ones. Certain scientists generate perpetual funding for themselves by claiming the Reef is under threat by humans. It's not. Those "dead Reef" stories are a money-making scheme. Mariner, Portsmith It was 3.6 degrees below zero here on Friday morning. Coldest I've known it. Does that sound like the globe is warming to you? Helen, Wondecla Around 90% of climate change nutters are unemployed. The rest are teachers and social workers. The climate change protests are secretly financed by billionaires. But the climate change nutters claim to hate billionaires. Weird, or what? Malcolm, Freshwater The government's forced closure of so-called "non-essential" businesses in their panicked response to a pretty typical flu was the ultimate taxation; effectively a siege. If properly tested in courts, it seems likely the government was behaving illegally and is liable for business losses. Businesses should consider a class action, with a view to compensation and also prosecution of the government employees and politicians who inflicted all that damage. Economist, Cairns How wonderful that President Trump has announced informally that he'll be running for President again in 2024. That's the one sliver of hope that we have to save the western world from the planned collapse being engineered by the Billionaire Club of Davos. Everything now hinges on Americans playing their individual roles to prevent a return of the rampant election fraud of 2020. Republican, Cairns CP, 16/7. If we're going to legalise cannabis that's fine, but the major corporations and government regulators must be kept out of it. The overseas experience shows that backyard buds do less harm than the factory buds and that backyard operators boost local communities with income while the factory corporations strip mine the money out of local communities. Cheech, Herberton Terrific op-ed, Joe Hildebrand (CP, 16/7). As well as those with skin in the game, I reckon there's some people whose lives are so boring they love the drama of being part of some unfolding epic scary event and that's why they're so reluctant to let covid go. They're also irrationally terrified of a possible minor change towards warmer weather at some undefinable point in the future. But they're Stalin's "useful idiots" and we need to ask who the modern day "Stalins" are. Barry, Parramatta Park State public servants are now the highest paid workers in most communities (CP, 16/7) yet we continue to get woeful results. Paying extra peanuts just gets us bigger chimps. MW, Redlynch The quickest way to get control of a whole population is to create an environment of fear. Climate change had stopped working, so we got Covid-19. Imogen, Whitfield The ABC's entire staff like to think of themselves as left wing, slightly revolutionary and very liberal. In reality they are establishment dogs, serving a communist power group without ever understanding what they are doing. Anne-Louise, Cairns The Chief executive of BioNTech has told health watchdogs that they have to decide soon whether or not to approve the new covid jabs for the most recent strains of the coronavirus – **without needing clinical data**. WTAF?! They now want to jab people without testing the stuff at all. Covid Nuremberg Now! Eileen, Herberton The highly respected Brownstone Institute has an article linking to 150 scientific research papers on the dangers of masks, but don't expect our rulers to educate themselves. They're following orders from their Malthusian masters at the WEF-controlled WHO. Gerald, Bungalow "Covid hits aged care." The majority of elderly people die with some sort of respiratory disease adding the final straw to other existing health problems. The average age at death in Australia is 82.5. The average age of death with covid is 85. "Curious of Cairns" is right. Covid is being played up by politicians for their own dubious reasons. Nurse G, Westcourt Wait, what? Albo is not going to give us free money? He got our votes under false pretences... Lock him up! Lugs, Manunda The solar cycle has triggered floods in some places and droughts in others, as it always does, and that has affected food supplies in some areas. But to add to that, the politics of the elites and their nutty war on the building blocks of life have created a fertilizer shortage and hiked the price of fuel farmers need. When the Sri Lankans started starving, they mobbed government buildings and drove their PM into hiding overseas. What will we do when the hunger pains start? Cedric, Kuranda Sri Lanka is now a failed state with a collapsed economy, thanks to the globalists' "green" agenda. Expect a flood of boats - and don't expect Albo to stop them. Neil, Westcourt

On the CBD firebugs, some of the worst mass murderers in history didn't use guns - they used fire. Eg., Julio Gonzales killed 87 on 25/03/1990 when he set the Happy Land social club in New York on fire. If Cairns doesn't want that on its name, it should start arresting these arsonists. Bob, Mareeba
"Mates over merit" (CP, 18/7) is nothing new. "It's not what you know but who you know" has been going on since Federation. Ultimately it works to the disadvantage of the party or department, leaving us with worse governance than we'd have in a pure meritocracy. We'd need "voter recall" and citizen-initiated referendums to fix it. Juss Sayen, Cairns
With our birth rate below replacement, abortion (killing a unique individual before their birth) must not be used as a method of contraception. Unwanted babies can be easily adopted out to parents unable to conceive. Kate, Caravonica
Speaking of Haiti (CP, 18/7), it has the lowest covid vaccination rate (1.4%) and the lowest covid case fatality rate. I wonder why? Julia, Brinsmead
The government's forced closure of so-called "non-essential" businesses in their panicked response to a pretty typical flu was the ultimate taxation, effectively a siege. If properly tested in courts, it seems likely the government was behaving illegally and is liable for business losses. Businesses should consider a class action, with a view to compensation and prosecution of the government employees and politicians who inflicted all that damage. Economist, Cairns
Gotabaya Rajapaska blames covid (18/7) because it'd be more than his life is worth to blame those who developed covid in the lab, released it into every country, then created panic in the media and governments all around the world. Who are they? They're the people disrupting food supply chains while investing in factories to grow bugs to sell as food. One Tooth Wally, Cairns North
Thank you for asking, Liz (CP, 18/07). "The Johnson River Advocate and Innisfail News" reported 42 degrees F (5.56 degrees C) at the Innisfail Post Office on July 1, 1932. Innisfail was almost as cold last week as it was 90 years ago. Yes, the climate changes - but it's cyclical and nothing to be alarmed about. History Guy, Freshwater
The globalists who are busily destroying food production, disrupting supply chains, dividing populations and creating paranoia about weather and sneezing have now come too far to back off. In America they have introduced a law to give the President the powers of a dictator and to introduce martial law. They will kill Trump to prevent his return. They will kill Biden as his credibility is dead. They will probably make Gavin Newsome the first American dictator. Reg, West Cairns
The stone cold fact is that masks did nothing to stop the spread, and any business that expects me to wear one will both lose my custom forever and get a scathing online review. Naomi, Bayview Heights
The whole point of switching names from 'global warming' to 'climate change' was because the warming stopped, Liz 18/7. But we're still supposed to go without reliable power and eat crickets to prevent 2 degrees of warming. Record cold in Innisfail says the warming has already been prevented - which means we can keep reliable power and eat steak. Phil, White Rock
RE: Doug Pollard (18/7). The highly respected Brownstone Institute has an article linking to 150 scientific research papers on the negative health consequences of masks over and above the fact they don't filter out viruses. If you're that scared you should just stay home. Gerald, Bungalow

Why would someone wearing a mask want someone else to wear a mask? Either their mask works or it doesn't. If it works that's all they need. If it doesn’t there's no point anyone wearing one. CJ, Clifton Beach
Albo's energy policy is "wind, solar, and hydrogen." Might as well be "unicorn flatulence, pixie dust and wishful thinking." Tony, Herberton
The main reason our fuel prices have gone up so much is because Joe Biden shut down America's fuel pipelines and cancelled drilling leases on federal land, Let's go, Brandon! F.M.D., Yorkeys Knob
Wait, what? A looming gas shortage in Victoria? (CP, 19/7) What a shame they closed those brown coal power stations. I bet they'll regret that soon. They remind me of that kid who jams a stick in the front wheel of his bike while riding down a hill, cartwheels over the handlebars, and blames his injuries on climate change. Brad, Atherton
On Ukraine (CP, 19/07), it's odd how international media's view of Ukraine changed after Putin lost patience with NATO encroachment. They used to call Ukraine the most corrupt nation and a Nazi stronghold. Then as if someone flipped a switch, Ukraine became the loveable underdog and we were supposed to forget corruption and Nazis. Ken, Mareeba
(CP, 19/7) Yes there's a place for trust in the medical field, but it can also be a problem. We trust our doctors. Our doctors trust our government regulators. Our government regulators trust foreign government regulators. Foreign government regulators trust pharmaceutical companies. Pharmaceutical companies make mistakes. See the problem? William, Brinsmead
Human activity produces about 30 billion tons of carbon dioxide per year, but termites produce 50 billion tons of carbon dioxide each year. So, if CO2 were really a problem, all we need to do is kill the termites, which nobody likes anyway, and then we don’t need to ride bicycles and eat insects. Juss Sayen, Cairns
You know how the alarmists want us to switch to highly explosive hydrogen? Well, some alarmists are getting in early and saying hydrogen leaks will add to global warming. It never has been about temperature - it's all about shutting down modern western society. China Watcher, Trinity Beach
The more I studied renewables and came to realise their inability to power modern societies, the more I invested in coal. With today's huge profit report from Whitehaven (19/7) I'm laughing all the way to the bank. Coal Hugger, Cairns
RE: "Masks are suggested but not mandated" (19/7). The highly respected Brownstone Institute has an article linking to 150 scientific research papers on the negative health consequences of masks over and above the fact they don't filter out viruses. Why are people so scared of science? Gerald, Bungalow
The Old Testament warns about the danger of hubris again and again. Here are some modern examples: Let’s see if we can stop a flu-like virus from behaving like a flu-like virus by forcing humans to stop behaving like humans. Let’s swap fossil fuels that work with renewables that don’t and hope we get cheap and reliable electricity. Let’s outsource everything that matters to a powerful communist nation that despises us and see what happens! Trevor, Mooroobool
Satellite images show food crop production is much reduced worldwide, due to fuel and fertiliser costs and shortages, except in Russia and China. Russia and China have extra food crops in. I'm starting to think "our" leaders are working for Russia and China. Brad, Tinaroo
The availability of copper is set to kill the greenies' irrational dreams of a world without hydrocarbons. An ordinary car includes about 24 kgs of copper, but a battery car needs between 60 kgs and 425 kgs depending on its size and range. We'd need many more copper mines, but they take years to come on line. There's just not enough copper to meet greenie targets. And that's before we double the number of generators, substations, transformers and wires in the grid to charge them all. Mechanic, Smithfield
Southern Europe is having seasonal wildfires, which climate alarmists are blaming on global warming. But any indigenous Australian can tell them they aren't managing their forest fuel loads properly. Heck, the indigenous in Arctic regions can tell them you can get uncontrollable wildfires in temperatures below zero. Fireman Sam, Smithfield
Local police in the US have been trained to respond correctly to school shooters since the 1999 Columbine High tragedy. The Uvalde police response (19/7) was not in accordance with that training. In fact, the police commander went against that tried and tested response. He has some serious questions to answer and his political connections must be examined closely as the Democrat agenda includes overriding America's inbuilt mechanism to control rogue governments - the Second Amendment. Republican, Cairns
"Of the 1323 Covid deaths in Queensland, as of July 8, 97.6 per cent were aged 50 years and over." Drill deeper into that and you'll see most were at the end of their natural lives anyway. When will governments admit that their expensive and intrusive interference in our private medical lives was entirely unwarranted? Ancient Steve,
"Booster message tough one to sell." (CP, 19/7). Could it be because the more shots you have the more likely you are to get covid? Davina, Bungalow

I remember 2.5 years ago when we all stayed home for two weeks to give governments time to ramp up hospitals. But they never did, did they? What on Earth were you doing, Premier Palaszczuk? Stephanie, Mooroobool
If these "E-bikes" have a motor in them to allow them to "whiz up hills", why aren't they registered and contributing to the costs of the road network they're using? Curious, Cairns
Ross Clark, (CP, 20/07), if the Australian Academy of Science were really a scientific organisation they would respect the laws of physics. Henry's Law accounts for atmospheric CO2 as an artefact of sea surface temperature. Planck's Law, Wien's Displacement Law, Kirchhoff's Law of Thermal Radiation, and the Second Law of Thermodynamics show that CO2 has a net cooling effect. The "greenhouse effect" is both overstated and controlled by water vapour. Baseline surface temperature is an artefact of gravity, atmospheric mass, core heat, and total received radiation. Sinclair D, (Armchair Science Institute), Kuranda
RE; letters 20/7. If Australia must be accountable for the emissions of the coal we sell overseas, then the countries we buy cars and trucks from must be responsible for those emissions. It's only logic if it works both ways - if it doesn't it's just propaganda. Chris, Trinity Beach
Yesterday in Saudi Arabia, petrol was ninety cents a litre in our money. That's the difference between drilling and not drilling. Juss Sayen, Cairns
Climate Alarmist: "OMG, I'm so scared! We're all gonna die from climate change!" Historian: "No need to be scared - here's facts and evidence that shows it's been hotter/wetter/colder in the past and the world was fine." Climate Alarmist: "I don't want facts and evidence! I want to be scared!" Armchair Comedian, Cairns
Plibbersuk is wasting her time and our money on "protecting" our natural environment unless she has a plan to defend it from those who have already massively polluted their own countries and who have hegemonistic ideations. You know, like China. China Watcher, Trinity Beach
You have to shake your head at Councillors who squander hundreds of thousands of ratepayers' hard-earned dollars to block a supermarket that everyone actually needed (editorial, 20/7). Since local government is a creation of state government and is controlled by state government we don't really need Councillors. Just rename the Cairns Regional Council as the Department of Cairns and save some money. Jessica, Gordonvale
Ha ha ha, imagine quoting NASA as a reliable source (CP, 20/07). Dr. Kate Marvel, an Associate Research Scientist at NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) in New York City, declared on June 1, “Climate justice and racial justice are the same thing, and we’ll never head off climate catastrophe without dismantling white supremacy.” It's enough to make one think they really did fake the moon landing. JS, Edge Hill
"Climate catastrophe" from humanity's "carbon" is a long-term plan by a number of billionaire conspirators to shut off the food and fuel we all rely on. Their aim is literally to rule the world and to eliminate 95% of us. People with useful practical skills that can't be performed by AI-controlled robotics will be kept for a while. As slaves. MW, Redlynch
Regarding Covid-19 hospitalisations, data from NSW, NZ, the UK, Israel and the US all show the more jabs you've had the more likely you are to wind up in ICU. Whoever puts that on our front pages will be a genuine credit to journalism. A. Reader, Cairns
Michael Crichton, author of Jurassic Park, wrote a book in 2004 called 'State of Fear' in which climate alarmists actively worked to create disasters that could be blamed on man made climate change. We see that phenomenon every year with US forest fires lit by green-left arsonists, many of whom are arrested, and it's happening in London right now with activists setting fire to buildings in the fuzzy-minded belief we'll be convinced air temperatures way below the ignition temperature of building materials can cause them to spontaneously ignite. Fireman Sam, Smithfield
Wait, what? (CP, 20/7). Harry Markle (the artist formerly known as Prince) is attacking the Biden administration? Now has got to be the time we split with the extreme far left monarchy and become a proper tripartite republic. We should adopt the US Constitution, complete with its Bill of Rights, as our founders should have done at Federation, because it's the only system that has the potential to rein in a rogue administration. Republican, Cairns
Sure, everything sucks with state and federal Labor (CP, 20/7). But get comfortable, it's going to get worse. Our once-great economy won't reset itself, you know. Ex-ALP Voter, Cairns
Clive, (20/7), while the alarmist propaganda is relentless, it's not based in fact. During the UK's ‘’first ever extreme heat warming’’ this week the top temperature recorded at Greenwich was 34.8°C at 3pm. However, 111 years ago, way back in 1911, the Greenwich Observatory officially recorded 100°F (37.8°C). A great day for the beach and no reason to regress to a stone age society.

The government couldn't keep Covid-19 out and it won't keep Foot and Mouth Disease out because they are both part of the globalists' depopulation plan. Annie, Ravenshoe
If you want to keep information safe, store it with Barack Obama's college records, Joe Biden's college records, and Ghislaine Maxwell's client list - because those three data files are the only ones in the world that seem to be unhackable. Ian, Manunda
The PM has warned the RBA not to "overreach" on interest rates. But they will, because despite being owned by Australian citizens they take their orders from the globalists' international banks. If you lose your house to mortgage stress and you didn't vote for the UAP "because Clive is a joke", well, the joke will be on you because Clive warned you. Danny, Kamerunga
That extra 7% you're paying at the checkout is 100% because Australian politicians are following the orders of foreign organisations. The Russian people are not paying extra at the checkout because their leader does not follow orders from these foreign organisations. At this point I respect Putin more than Albanese. Kit, Brinsmead
Australian political stupidity has reached a new high. Aussies who have suspicions about the "jabs" were forced out of work. Now there's a worker shortage. Instead of reversing those insane "jab" rules, Albo is just going to import foreigners to take Aussies' jobs (CP, 21/7). Globalism 101 - replace the voters with more compliant people. Furious, Whitfield
Re; "Covid-19 drugs 'difficult' to get", CP, 21/7, as former MP Craig Kelly has said many times, the TGA personnel who banned two long-approved and very safe medications that work against Covid-19 need to face criminal trial. If they had not taken that illogical stance we would not have had a "pandemic" and there would have been no need to coerce people into the government injections. Charles, Edge Hill
Tom Minear (21/7), you lost me at the point where you said ScoMo's "climate baggage". ScoMo's "climate baggage'' was maybe a kilo lighter than Albo's, but it was every bit as redundant - because Australia is a net carbon sink. We absorb five to six times as much as we produce. Going along to get along with people who are dead-set wrong at the expense of the wellbeing of your own country is as stupid as it gets. ALP and LNP are Tweedledum and Tweedledumber on that point. Juss Sayen, Cairns
On Monday (18/7), UN chief Antonio Guterres said we have eight years to save the world from climate change. The problem is, he and his ilk have been saying similar things since the early 1970s and I have a list of 50 of their failed dire doom predictions. Please shut up, Herr Guterres; you've cried "wolf" far too many times. Over-It, Cairns
RE: masks (21/7). The highly respected Brownstone Institute has an article linking to 150 scientific research papers on the negative health consequences of masks over and above the fact they don't filter out viruses. Why are people so scared of science? How did the government come to control the media? Is it using taxpayers money to do so? Assuming it is, don't we deserve both sides of the story since we're paying as taxpayers and as customers? Gerald, Bungalow
RE: Letters (CP, 20/07). Dr. Kate Marvel, an Associate Research Scientist at NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) in New York City, declared on June 1, “Climate justice and racial justice are the same thing, and we’ll never head off climate catastrophe without dismantling white supremacy.” It's enough to make one think they really did fake the moon landing. NASA is not now and may never have been a reliable source. JS, Edge Hill
Yes, "support is limited for masks" (21/7) because most of us now know that unless they are changed every 20 minutes or when they become damp (whicher occurs first) they breed bacteria and fungal colonies. Wear a mask for a full day then store it in your handbag for a few weeks - and then get it out and smell it. That mouldy odour is bacteria and fungus. Yuck. Plus they don't stop airborne virus particles. Jane, Stratford
Barbara Dunn (Letters, 21/7) seems to be saying that the ALP state government has completely failed to protect the environment, as most of the issues mentioned are state issues and Labor has been in power in Queensland for most of the last 30-odd years. And Helen of Cooktown is right, the Greens harm trees. To conserve the environment we'll need to vote for conservatives, so it's a shame we no longer have a conservative party. The LNP is now just Labor-lite. Jonesy, Manoora

Sure it's hot in western Europe (CP, 21/7), but it's cold in eastern Europe. Global warming (climate change) has to be global - not regional. Regional heat in a given hemisphere in summer is likely due to meridional fluctuations (Rossby waves) in the polar jet stream. These are bigger when the solar input is low, like it is now. James, Whitfield
TV news says hot weather is causing wildfires in the UK. The reporters seem unaware that the air temperature is barely five per cent of the temperature required for the forest fuels to spontaneously ignite. It is NOT air temperature causing the wildfires - it is sometimes accidental ignition from normal outdoors activity, but more commonly it is arsonists. Fireman Sam, Smithfield
I predict that the Democrat's Presidential ticket in the 2024 will be a trans woman and a gay man - Michelle "Big Mike" Obama and Pete "Buttplug" Buttigieg. Trans and gays are the two main demographics of the modern Democrats. Republican, Cairns
The availability of copper is set to kill the greenies' irrational dreams of a world without hydrocarbons. An ordinary car includes about 24 kgs of copper, but a battery car needs between 60 kgs and 425 kgs depending on its size and range. We'd need many more copper mines, but they take years to come on line. There's just not enough copper to meet greenie targets. And that's before we double the number generators, substations, transformers and wires in the grid to charge them all. Mechanic, Smithfield
"Invasion of Ukraine set to increase world’s demand for coal" (CP, 21/07). Guess why. It's because coal actually works to produce cheap and reliable power. If burned properly, the residue is food and water for plants. Solar and wind are not cheap and not reliable and only destroy plant habitat. One Tooth Wally, Cairns North
Andy of Gordonvale is right, (21/07), airport weather stations always have higher readings due to bitumen and jet exhausts. It's more accurate to use stations that are nowhere near airports. Greenwich Observatory, in a park in central London, hit a maximum of 34.8°C during the UK's two-day "heatwave". However, back in 1911 the Greenwich Observatory officially recorded 100°F (37.8°C). A great day for the beach and no reason to regress to a stone age society. History Guy, Freshwater
Hollywood is full of people who visited Epstein's island, so I'm frankly disgusted by people who get excited over sighting any of those repulsive individuals. Ancient Steve, Redlynch
