Several times here, Flannery has been referred to as an 'expert'. But he's not. He has no climate credentials.

Like Gore and Kerry and Greta and myriad others, he is just a press personality who made his fortune by telling the alarmist community what they want to hear irrespective of the facts.

mhaze, hear, hear!
Good to hear another voice of reason, truth and common sense.

mhaze & ALTRAV,

If Flannery and others are wrong about AGW then you have nothing to worry about.

I acknowledge AGW and I am one of those who believe THE PROBLEM IS NOW TOO BIG TO FIX.

I suppose in the long run it will be the Australian voter who decides whether or not AGW is real. When the bushfires and the floods become too much to handle people will get rid of the LNP know-all-know-nothings and put people into power who understand the problems.

All this arguing may well turn out to be a mirage as there is an
another factor in that we are presently at the peak of a temperature
cycle caused by the sun. This is the the same cycle as Roman Warming,
Medieval Warm period, Maunder Minimum and the present Modern Warm
period all separated by 600 to 1000 years.
We will know pretty much for certain in 100 years as we will be well
into the decline to the next cold period.
This will occur whether the CO2 global warming is true or not.
Whether it would overcome the current effect of CO2 I do not know
but who wants to argue with the sun ?

PS the cycle is not the Ice Age cycle which is many thousands of years long.

I really think that Professor Tim Flummery should be shewn more respect.
