"Where are our climate and weather scientists?"

Hopefully thrown into the volcano as a sacrifice to appease the climate gods.
- It's about as good of a worthwhile contribution as they will ever make.

Where are our climate and weather scientists?
probably on holiday in Hawaii on their generous public-funded Superannuations !

Barmaid:

Why the big eruption?

Says volcano: That’s not an eruption, I’m just pleased to see the rain!

>I'll stick with qualified people who know what they are talking about

Fine words, ttbn when we look at what else you've posted on the subject, it's obvious they're a pack of lies!
You prefer to stick with the misinformation the Murdoch Press spews out. You don't even listen to the qualified people who know what they're talking about, because you consider their predictions (which you haven't actually read) to be alarmist.

In reality the scientists knew in the early '90s that the problem was serious but the timescale was much longer than the alarmists were claiming. But that wasn't very widely reported because it wasn't sensational enough to sell newspapers. Those pushing their own agendas could shout much louder.

>...not carpet-baggers and anonymous drongo posters

Quite ironic considering I post using my real name, while you use a pseudonym that seems ill suited to your personality.

>...who get all their information from Google.

Google's a very useful tool for finding information. I suggest you try it sometime - you might actually learn something. And rest assured, it's not the only way I find information.

But more importantly, I've explained something you didn't know. You've reacted in the wilfully ignorant way of denying it because you dislike the source. Whereas the sensible way would be to investigate what I'm saying. Try to prove it wrong if you like, but don't pretend you don't now know why the 3% is more significant than the 97%.

What we have today is academic hacks who are happy to sell their soul for a new grant, & a few idiots who actually believe the scam

You are not wrong about that, Hasbeen.
