Climate change is here despite denial : Comments

By Lyn Bender, published 4/2/2014

Seems it never rains in Southern California. But California Dreamin' has become a California Dryin' nightmare and many are praying for the drought to end.

Many can pray for rain as long as they like but that will not bring the rain to Southern California.
Yes, something positive should have been done long ago but it wasn`t.
We just kept on breeding.
Business as usual.
Perhaps doing something now may mitigate the affects of climate change but we won`t stop it.

Lyn Bender has excelled herself! Not only the hysteria but now lie after lie. I could not begin to point them out.
Your little "Non violent" mates will now start to attack?
Its OK Lyn see these people have made an absolute fortune out of this fraud and there is no chance they will let their mansions be seized for damages so it is all just froth and bubble.
Hysterical lies and I really do question your sanity never mind your racism and ageism. Yes Lyn another old white man has the temerity to talk. I told you in a previous piece of nonsense you wrote. Your discriminatory attitude will be put up for all to see every time you write.

Ateday remember Flannery and his "it will never rain again in Brisbane" before devastating floods?
At least he is now confining his prediction to what ever happens saying Climate change! Hot, cold, wet and dry - "Its global warming sorry climate change.
I just hope ateday you have not bred, will not breed and do not live in Brisbane?

At 3 pages, this is just too long to read about the same old same old from another alarmist who doesn't know the difference between accepting that there might be some climate change at the moment (just like there has been since Adam & Eve) and accepting the fact that it is nothing to do with people, nor will ripping and gouging money off ordinary consumers make one jot of difference to any change that occurs.

Definition of a conservative: someone to whom nothing is obvious until -long- after it's happened.
“Conservative leader” is an oxymoron, since conservatives don't actually go anywhere -except maybe backwards. Our noble leader appears to feel he can make problems go away simply by ensuring they're not reported in the media.
The balance between progressives and conservatives has worked reasonably well in the past; we need the progressives to have brief spells in power to make the necessary changes -and we need the conservatives to provide stability in the between times.
What we don't need is for the conservatives to be in power when major changes are required.
It isn't the conservatives who have let us down; they're just doing what they've always done.
It's the incompetence and ego driven rivalry of the progressives that has failed us.
Abbott looks like being our Chamberlain. I wonder if Turnbull is up to being our Churchill?

This is a repugnant article. The author advocates "civil disobedience"; and seeks to wash her hands of any consequences for such advocacy by saying "(non-violent) resistance on multiple fronts".

This is garbage the left and the Greens have shown time and time again that they are capable of violence and destruction.

What is with the psychologists? Lewandowsky is a psychologist and has written papers that are based on lies and deceit. Now we have this psychologist advocating [non]violent protests based a string of alleged 'facts' none of which are true.

For instance the author says:

"The IPCC (U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) predicted in report after report that weather patterns would intensify and extreme weather events would become increasingly common. Now with the release of its 5th report its message is becoming more shrill and unequivocal, but who is really listening?" This is a complete misrepresentation, in short a lie. In fact what AR5 said was there was NO connection between AGW and extreme weather:

http://www.ipcc-wg2.gov/SREX/

Chapter 4 of the Report says:

“There is medium evidence and high agreement that long-term trends in normalized losses have not been attributed to natural or anthropogenic climate change”
“The statement about the absence of trends in impacts attributable to natural or anthropogenic climate change holds for tropical and extratropical storms and tornados”
“The absence of an attributable climate change signal in losses also holds for flood losses”

Nature Journal the most prestigious AGW journal says there is not sufficient evidence for claims that extreme weather is caused by AGW:

http://www.nature.com/news/extreme-weather-1.11428

New research shows that if AGW is real it would cause LESS extreme weather:

http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0277379113004976?np=y

Even the MET agrees that AGW cannot be said to cause extreme weather:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-25675937

What we have as shown by this author is disciples of AGW still believing in AGW and becoming more hysterical as the official evidentiary sources they relied on start to contradict their beliefs.

This is not just delusional it is fanatical.
