Alison Jane, he wouldn't go "voom" with 4,000,000 volts. RIP Terry Jones & thanks for the laughs. That the 'climatologist(s)' et al with their modern gadgetry, computer modelling & such can predict the future sounds awfully like the Alchemists turning lead into gold. The gold is then gobbled up by the various 'geese' to lay another golden egg for their masters. It's all about the money you see. Could the so called rise in sea levels be just a factor of tectonic plates bobbing up & down in their various surrounding water masses causing the littoral zones to vary? That we have some documented history (let's call it the Bible) which indicated huge forested areas in what is now Lebanon in the time 6,000 to 7,000 years ago all means exactly what? That Mr Todd took temperature readings off his balcony in Adelaide 180 + years ago means we have some "recent data" to compare against. The scientists reckon from ice samples taken from Antarctica deduce that Earth has had higher levels of Co2, so again - did the planet fly off its axis and off into space? Scientists say there is evidence from geological sampling that indicates the magnetic poles have shifted...scientists say a lot of things.

Albie Manton in Darwin,

The combined Navy, Merchant & private shipping plus artificial islands & run-off sediment etc etc. all contribute substantially to any increase in Sea level. I suppose there's no money in that hence no hysteria about it !

You raise valid points. I am a committed scientist and earned my living using it for 40 years. But what you raise is fundamental to the future of science and its value to society.

The whole climate change cult (and those money making interest that thrive off it) has shaken my faith in science,in particular those so-called climate change scientists have damaged the whole profession and society's trust in it. You would have thought 'climate gate' would have blown it open!

Science is still, I believe valuable, but like the banks, these CCC scammers have sold shonky products to innocent customers, particularly our children. Remember how the Commonwealth Bank used it kiddies saving accounts?, Same thing with CCC scientist. Hopefully before I die, science can regain its credibility from this unfortunate disgraceful period in science previously sound history. Like all things science can be used for good or evil.

Watch this as a prime expose of US plutocrats misuse of science for AGW promotion in schools

Dare I say it, what about a global Royal Commission into Climate Change Science? (only joking)

Science is great ! I has brought us many wonderful things, it's some stupid people who call themselves scientists but are lacking vision & mentality who are ruining it for all !
Politics has the same problem !

Forget GW/CC the next big scare has arrived.

I've been looking for the TV Mini Series for some weeks now about an World wide Contagion that kills just about everybody on Earth. I've finally found it.

SURVIVORS

Survivors is a British post-apocalyptic fiction drama television series created by Terry Nation and produced by Terence Dudley at the BBC, that broadcast from 1975 to 1977. It concerns the plight of a group of people who have survived an apocalyptic plague pandemic, which was accidentally released by a Chinese scientist and quickly spread across the world via air travel. Referred to as "The Death", the plague kills approximately 4,999 out of every 5,000 human beings on the planet within a matter of weeks of being released.

Series 1 (1975)
As the world's population is almost annihilated by a mysterious pandemic, accidentally unleashed by a Chinese scientist, the crisis is first seen through the eyes of two characters—Jenny Richards, a young working woman in London, and Abby Grant, a middle-class corporate wife living a comfortable existence in a suburban commuter village. As Abby goes in search of her son Peter, who was away at school when the pandemic occurred, Jenny wanders aimlessly through the countryside.

Be Afraid, very Afraid. The next big World Wide scare is coming to you soon. Brought to you by the PC, Greenies, Socialist & Marxists. As predicted 40 years ago. Ay.

That brings back memories. I watched it the first time as a teenager cold wet miserable winter nights. It was fictional entertainment.

Where is it being shown?

Odd that we are now facing a world scare from China today. Wonder how long it will take Netflix to many a series, like they did with Chernobyl
