AC,

You have a crystal ball that tells you that? The child is a freak, a passing fad, promoted by the media, dropped by the media. She has another nine years before her brain is fully developed. She might even miss out on full development, like the adults who lionise her have missed out.

Same old same old from you, Aidan. You come up with nothing new - ever.

And the word is strewth, not struth. Your anti-Australian attitude shows even in your misuse of the idiom.

ttbn,
Nothing new, yet you were still unable to think of the answer. Are you suffering from dementia?

Struth is the normal english spelling. Strewth is just the strine spelling.

Aidan,

What ttbn and most adults think is that a year 9/10 student with a learning disability is unlikely to have more than the most flimsy grasp of the science and is more likely to be simply regurgitating the dross her activist parents have indoctrinated her with.

The result is that most sentient humans while politely humouring her view her as no more than a teen having a tantrum. That left whinge activists laud her and treat her as the second coming leaves them with the same credibility deficit.

Secondly, trying to blame Australia for the world's increasing emissions is laughable. China and India who make up nearly 1/2 of world emissions have bugger all intention to reduce emissions and are building dozens of coal power stations.

Aidan,

"An enormous amount considering how little we've done so far."

That's no answer.

"When our use of renewables is that low, how can you still fail to comprehend that we must hugely increase it?"

Again. That's no answer. Investment in renewables is on a downward trend. Not enough taxpayer handouts for the crooks. You wouldn't know that because you are still locked into liars, and you never stop regurgitating lies.

Finally, you extremely unpleasant person, suggesting that someone whose views you don't like has dementia is really bottom of the barrel, low class stuff.

Worse still, you are a language ignoramus. Google 'struth' and 'strewth' comes up. Your incorrect spelling doesn't appear dictionaries either; nor in Roget's

ttbn,

You ask what can Scott Morrison do that he has not already done? One big thing he can do that will help immensely is publicly recognise that the environmental crisis we have in Australia is the consequence of global warming caused by the burning of fossil fuels. Until he can do that he might as well be on holiday in Hawaii PERMANENTLY.

PS When I watch TV broadcasts of someone reporting about the fires and he is standing in the background he always has a smirk on his face while all the others standing there look serious and sombre about the situation. But Scott Morrison has this great big smirk on his face. Sorry, I just don't get it! Must be a LNP thingy.
