Do emus bury their heads in the sand? : Comments

By Campbell Macpherson, published 18/2/2021

Too many Australian politicians appear to be stuck in the 'Denial' phase of the Kubler-Ross change curve – unable or unwilling to accept the reality of climate change.

Here is another King maker from the royal stable of self importance!

Actually, China climbed the mountain called Smog, to become the global world leader, by ignoring the fallacy, while stupid in the West once dominated this deserved place.

Also, “breed stupid” has gone forward in its attempts to build on impoverishing its citizens with panic reactions, which force homelessness and hunger to unprecedented levels not seen in decades. Do these clowns care? Not a bit! Let the artificially created poor, walk and burn candles. Someone must pay; who better than the dispossessed!

We haven’t heard the old ‘denial’ put down attempt for a long time. Talk about “looking on (sic) the rear vision mirror”.

There is a “reality” to climate change; the non-reality is the yammering about its cause, and the pathetic belief that anything can be done about it by humans, by 2030 or 2050 - whatever.

Wild, unsubstantiated phrases like “increasingly devastating bushfires”; “frequent wild weather ‘events’”, and “dramatic bleaching of the Great Barrier Reef”, fly in the face of the reality we are supposedly not accepting. No mention of ‘events’ in Europe, where the climate has decided to produce the coldest weather for 50 years. Nothing about the amazingly mild Summer here in the south, either.

“Solar is cheapest way to produce electricity”. This fellow doesn’t pay the power bills if he thinks that. And, in the north, the solar panels - even the windmills - are frozen and not working.

A “web of fear and misinformation”. Yes. We have just been reading it here.

Oh man! Is this a parody post? Or a competition - how many errors can you make in 1000 words or less.

"unwilling to accept the reality of climate change"

Who doesn't accept that there's climate change? We all know its been changing for approximately 4 billion years.

We even accept that the last 150 years of that 4 billion has seen some warming.

What we don't accept is the claim that the warming is solely due to CO2.

But what we especially don't accept is the whole 'were all gunna die' screams from the alarmists.

We accept GW - that there's been warming.

We partially accept the AGW bit - that man has played some part in the warming.

We reject the whole CAGW meme - that it'll be catastrophic. Some even think it'll continue to be beneficial.

Its good that we still have some pollies who can see past the hype.

How many times do I have to say it!

THE PROBLEM IS NOW TOO BIG TO FIX.

The thing with AGW / Climate change deniers is that they want to have a quinella on themselves: "Oh well, if we're wrong and the science is right we will always be able to just turn back the clock."

WRONG . . . . . . IT'S TOO LATE.

I suppose Galileo had sceptics too. It took a long time for people to realize that the earth was not flat, and that ships would not fall off a flat earth. These doubters remind me of the deniers of climate change. Science has shown that if we continue on our pathway of burning coal and increasing the earth's temperature, then we will make life worse on planet Earth, which is round, dear climate deniers.
