An Indian view of climate change, and where it led me : Comments

By Don Aitkin, published 12/8/2019

The IPCC summarises: estimates of global annual economic losses for an additional temperature increase of 2°C are between 0.2 and 2.0 per cent of income.

Subjective selected personally preferred, risible and completely ignorant rubbish in my view! And completely refuted by the completely irrefutable fossil record, which shows beyond doubt, that a 2% rise in ambient temperature would all but destroy all life!

Yet this aging fossilised acidemic continues to tout the fossil fuel industry line, even as their own scientists take a completely different view privately behind closed doors, as indeed did those employed by both tobacco and asbestos!

And should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law for willful fraud as indeed should those trying to support a now completely untenable argument for the current status quo!

You'll have a nice day now y'hear.

As always with a cherry-picking Don, he relies on the opinions of other personally selected writers to say what he cannot! And his quite deliberate personal choice this time in a known anti-socialist right-wing conservative!

Need I say more!?

Al

You've painted all the kettles black again. You need a spanking.

Alan, since the Younger Dryas period ended (circa 10,800 years ago), global temperatures have been more than 2 degrees higher than today and life has flourished so your claim is incorrect. In fact our current global average temperature is near to or about the same as the ‘Medieval Cooling Period’.

Consider CO2 represents 0.04 percent of the atmosphere, of which circa 3% is man made and annually produced, this represents an annual man made additional loading of 0.0012%.

Are you serious you believe this loading is going to have an impact on climate change (outside natural variation)?

If you do you are deluded.

The Venerable Bede (born about 674 AD) wrote in his 'Ecclesiastical History of Britain' about vines growing in Britain.

Fernand Braudel, in his massive three-volume work on the culture and economy of the Middle Ages, i.e. up to about 1800, wrote about the up-take of tobacco-growing in Britain after about 1620, i.e. in what was a cooling period after the MW period.

Do they grow much in the way of vines and tobacco in Britain these days ?

see another colossal failure with windfarms in England a couple of days back. No comment from abc. I wonder why?
