Plerdsus,

You nailed it!

<< atmosphere has no brain, and cannot distinguish between one person pumping 100,000 tonnes and 100,000 people each pumping one tonne...
Of course this doesn't suit the guilt industry (remember all successful religions are based on guilt) which shares the left wing obsession about the fact that we have a higher living standard than the third world.>>

But watch out --in any brave new green world they would knocking on your door about now to cart you off to a re-education camp.

I was under the impression that the left had lost the election, so that means its concerns go on the back burner.

As for using the climate models to drive policy basically in the last few years they have been shown that they are of no use - and that's irrespective of the science.

For a start there is no reason to think that the models have anything like the accuracy often attributed to them (get to this temperature if we get to this level of CO2 in the atmosphere), and all the rainfall models have proved useless in the short term.

In any case, without an international agreement on limiting emissions there is simply no point in Australia doing so. Its a complete waste of money, and voters are beginning to realise this.

What is it about Tasmania? Wasn't it just yesterday we had another Taswegian rabbiting on about some bee in her bonnet.

Is it something in the air that turns people into kooks? Is it that there are now so many kooks down there, that they have developed a new form of gravity that draws them from all over the country, & the known world, & even from outer space if one of them, Bob Brown is to be believed?

I wonder if there is a time that is safe for sane folk to visit, or if even a few days is enough to unhinge the innocent tourist?

But then what is it about greenies? Why is it that none of them can ever tell the truth? Why can they not argue a case on the facts? Why must they spin everything so heavily that sane people roll their eyes & mutter "Oh god" as they move away?

I guess all this is good for the sanity of the world population. It makes it easier for the borderline Kook to see the fallacy, & avoid being conned.

'The climate is fighting back and we are entering unprecedented territory faster than we would like. '

I did not know I was at war with the climate. Those who reject Christ certainly are at war with God (unwinnable battle) but climate? I still think Australia has one of the best climates in the world. The poms would do anything to have our sunny days.

*It should be an interesting century.*

As the Chinese say "may you live in interesting times".

If you live.

It isnt that the Coalition were elected, its that the whole world is catching on. Climate change is transitioning from a popular hysteria, to something everyone but the invested activists can treat as science.

The last days of Tulip Mania...

Prepare for a wave of professional liability lawsuits to try and recover some tiny portion of the billions wasted on uneconomic renewables, carbon trading folly and subsidies poured into the crony capitalists of 'green jobs'.
