Thanks for the Gish Gallop, Mikko2.

But let’s be clear: you’ve just sprinted away from the actual point. This started with your claim that Ridd’s GWPF report was peer-reviewed. You admitted it wasn’t. Everything since has been noise and deflection.

“The Reef is fine.”
That’s exactly why Ridd’s ideas don’t survive peer review. The peer-reviewed literature documents repeated mass bleaching, major declines in coral cover, and stress from rising seas. Resilience isn’t immunity.

“No climate emergency.”
Tell that to insurers, defence planners, or the Bureau of Meteorology. None of them are “woke,” but all are reacting to escalating risks and costs.

“Cold winter, so no warming.”
You're confusing weather and climate. A Granite Belt cold snap doesn’t erase global heat records, just like one rainy day doesn’t mean droughts don’t exist.

“CO2 isn’t the cause, more coal please.”
Every national science academy says otherwise. And while you point to China and India’s coal, you omit that they’re also leading in renewables - inconvenient for your “reality” list.

“They changed global warming to climate change.”
False. Both terms have been used for decades: global warming for the long-term heat trend, climate change for the broader shifts. Not a conspiracy, just scope.

King Canute. He showed his followers humans can’t command nature. Which makes it ironic when you argue we can pump out endless emissions with no consequences.

So here’s the real bait-and-switch: you started with a false claim about peer review, got caught, and are now burying the thread in talking points hoping no one notices. But the record’s clear: the report wasn’t peer-reviewed.

No pile of weather anecdotes or Canute stories changes that.

“The Reef is fine.”
John daysh,
Wrong analogy. The reef could be fine if recreational fishing was curbed ! As for rising sea levels, do you really think a few millimetres are catastrophic ? If you believe that then you should be advocating for the many billions of tonnes of shipping that pushes sea level up by millimetres to be removed. Also, you should be advocating for frivolous & non sensical activities that contribute to pollution.
Also, you should propose to Greta !

Ah well Indiyidual he's posted enough woke propaganda to keep me amused for a while but I'll just leave him to his delusions about peer review, climate change, the state of the Reef and just about everything else. He has nothing to say about the "experts" who told us we were in for a hot dry winter (yeah right that's just "weather"). Just about as accurate as any catastrophe predicted by climate "experts" since the '70s, none of which have eventuated. Besides the likes of Al Gore and international scientists who told us the poles were melting and we'd never see snow again, sea levels would rise by 6 metres blah blah, we have our own extreme example with the Climate Council's Tim Flannery who predicted that our rivers would run dry and "even the rain that falls will never fill our dams" back in 2007.
Gee he really nailed that, just like climate alarmists have been making similar dud predictions that only the gullible and indoctrinated terrified kids could believe.
