Just for fun I used my ‘favourite search engine’ and got the following results for the numbers of hits coming from the phrase ‘crisis in Australian …’

Cobber:

Which scientist will you listen to? And why that one, or those ones? Shouldn't you be reading about 'climate change' from all points of view, and making your own mind up — or beginning to ask questions yourself? That's what most sceptics do, and I am one such.

Rrhosty:

Yes, there may be opportunities ahead too.

Well, I for one listen to the scientists that publish in scientific journals.

I am very sceptical of the ones that vanity publish books and political polemics.

Bugsy, all the prominent sceptical scientists, like Carter, Happer, Lindzen, Plimer, have published in scientific peer-reviewed journals. Do you read their work too? Does it worry you that our governments have not funded research on 'climate change' that looks at natural variability?

Don, you still haven't addressed the reason for the phenomenal unprecedented permafrost melt; and the consequent new summer lakes in Alaska!

Phenomenal, given the great solar furnace in the sky is in a waning phase and has been since the mid seventies. ( NASA)

And given your lists of denialists.
I believe as a "climate scientist", Plimmer makes a great geologist!

What's your alternative scientific rationale? A mass event of shared body heat, due to recent population explosions?

Or substrata volcanic activity and hot rocks finally getting their heat to reach the surface; or down to tectonic plate activity creating new levels of heat due to friction?

In which case there's a fraction too much friction!

Rhrosty,

Perhaps you could give me the links to the unprecedented permafrost melting. What I've read suggests that it is a possibility, if warming passes a certain point, not a reality. Arctic ice-cover seems to have recovered and, as you probably know, Antarctic sea ice is at a very high level.

Have to agree with Don - what unprecedented permafrost melting? I was also under the impression that it was one of those possibilities when warming past a certain point.. no-one was claiming it was actually happening..
