My goodness the climate deniers are having to work overtime aren't they.
Perhaps they are just looking to get in before the El Nino weather really bites. Perth has clocked record setting temperatures this month. "Perth weather smashing November records with first extremely severe heatwave warning issued in history" http://thewest.com.au/news/wa/perth-weather-smashing-november-records-with-first-extremely-severe-heatwave-warning-issued-in-history-c-12630992 As it did in September. "Perth sets new September temperature record amid 'searing air mass'" http://www.9news.com.au/national/western-australia-weather-geraldton-sets-september-temperature-record-38-degrees/f1d8d968-773c-40a3-8916-7c9300f3f6ad And some hard right flog of an ex-reporter types up his little denial piece sitting in the comfort of his Noosa retirement village. But truthfully it is pretty hard to feel any anger, or even disappointment at the idiocy. Now it is just pity. At least he will find some similarly afflicted idiocy here on OLO.

Because they have no vote, their strikes are a complete waste of time!
As for the authors CO2 numbers? It looks as though he (Fossi fuel flunky) has massaged them or selectively chosen some Authors whose numbers are equally suspect? Current CO2 numbers have never been higher and are in uncharted territory! Climate caused catastrophises have never been worse in living memory! We need to transition to nuclear power yesterday! Preferably MSR thorium and 3 cents PKWH! And electrify the economy ASAP! No harm will ensue, and the economy will get a huge boost and inflation will be killed in its tracks! Neither of the two outcomes seem to be on the author's wish list! Alan B. Posted by Alan B., Friday, 24 November 2023 8:27:19 AM

WTF?
School children are probably not going to sway the general public but it does show an interest in topical subjects. The author quotes: "Recently published data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) shows that there has not been global warming for the past eight years. " The article was published on 4 February 2023. This is, however, what the NOAA states on 4 June 2023: "A new study published online today in the journal Science finds that the rate of global warming during the last 15 years has been as fast as or faster than that seen during the latter half of the 20th Century. The study refutes the notion that there has been a slowdown or "hiatus" in the rate of global warming in recent years." I trust the information from the NOAA long before an article claiming to present information from NOAA that the NOAA refutes. Posted by WTF? - Not Again, Friday, 24 November 2023 10:40:13 AM

I wonder how many of these people "striking for climate" will go on to parent 2 or more little resource consumers thus contributing to their own demise.

I hate to burst the bubble of a few climate alarmists commenting here but a few hot days in Perth does not constitute a climate emergency (check the link to Jennifer Marohasy's article on temperature homogenising and expunging of old records), I do not live "in a Noosa retirement village" but close to the sea with million dollar views, and the list of past higher CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere - some at least 10 times present levels - is a direct quote from Wikipedia. But I do support modern nuclear technology as a better solution to a non-problem than our present mad rush to costly and unreliable renewables which is destroying rainforests, koala habitat and productive farmland to "save the planet".
However, if you wish to join the climate nutters like Extinction Rebellion, go buy your superglue.. Posted by Mikko2, Friday, 24 November 2023 11:33:45 AM

I recently saw an interview of a character claiming to be a doctor who handed out certificates for brainwashed (or boiled-brain) school kids. When made to look like the idiot he was by the interviewer, he just laughed maniacally, revealing missing teeth. This is the sort of nutter that is sending kids around the twist. Their problems are not climate change, but the lying lunacy of psychopaths about climate change, which is perfectly natural as we get further away from the last ice-age.
Have the sh-t for brains kids had the chance to hear the alternative claims that there is a dangerous lack of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere? Or any other opinions contrary to those of the wackjobs and Communist teachers’ unions?
Of course they haven't.
