KAEP: The only solution to climate change is to globally have strict birth controls.

And bloody big floods, Famines, Wars, Pandemics & other natural disasters in those third world Countries.

That helps keep the population down. The problem is we send them AID & they Breed up again. There are then twice as many who go on to be Jihadists, Terrorists & Pirates & try to kill the people that save them.

Hi KAEP,

Wouldn't it be great to be World King, dictating here and ordering there: Immediate birth control ! All peons to reduce defecation NOW ! Flush the Ganges forthwith !

OR, of course, India could, at huge cost and not before time, construct the infrastructure for water retention and reticulation, and sewage disposal and treatment. Indians are, after all, as entitled to both clean water and sewage disposal and treatment as you or me. And also, while we're on the subject of infrastructure, to electrification, universal education, decent road and rail networks. Putting those projects off (not just in India but in pretty much all Third World countries) has only made them more urgent, but more spatially destructive and expensive.

Yeah, it's maybe a lot easier to daydream about having absolute power, like Gandalf or that Hogwarts bloke or any other psychopath in any of those video games. Oh well, back to reality ......

Cheers,

Joe

I won't be on for a few days. I'm off to Townsville to receive my "Cross of Gallantry with Gold Palm" I've been waiting 50 years for this to come through. The 173D(S) Airborne are coming from Italy to do the presentation at Lavarack on Friday.

Jayb,

Congratulations.

Wear it with pride.

There were many civic initiatives and improvements that should be mentioned and reported in the news.

Good on you, JayB. Wow, worth waiting for :)

If you want to stop climate change the you have to stop the nappy change.

You just can't have progress when the most vocal climate change abatement proponents are the most egotistical "for my children and my grandchildren" boneheads.

Sad but so.

I will present more papers and evidence for the 'climate change = nappy change' truth as time permits.

ITM the CSIRO have got a kick in the pants by the global community who ignore their suspect Cape Grim CO2 work and just praise their atmospheric aerosol monitoring contributions. I too applaud this monitoring work as its the last major piece missing in the atmospheric climate models. The Federal Government will surely note this and give due funding as the gravitas is realised.
