Yes right .... I have this bridge for sale, are you interested? Seriously, though... We could all drive big blocks v8's or all drive electric cars. It would make an impossible to measure difference to the worlds environment. what we do in australia is utterly irrelevant to any climate change. I'm surprised anyone reads the ABC news website, its such one side biased nonsense when ever I look at it.

the earth is actually in a real cold snap over the last few hundred thousand years. The only consistent thing is climate change. If you want to be concerned, Id be thinking "rate of climate change" not the fact its changing.

typical ABC ... I did try and look at the references for that news story....................... Where did they get that from. its like they pulled the data out of thin air. The entire story is just "oh no the world is coming to an end" with absolutely no backup references.

I'm sure 20years ago, the ABC new was actually factually written researched topics with opposing views on subjects both covered. Today it is just a laughing stock. very sad really :(

Thanks for that. I was getting excited there for a minute, I thought that could be good. I've think I've decided anything that starts with crap like "acknowledgment of traditional owners" ... is going to be baseless stupidity ... a fluff piece. Still I figured it could be really interesting.....

The first pass assessment was a qualitativeassessment of Australia’s climate risks (DCCEEW,2024). It included a comprehensive literaturescan, a rapid adaptation stocktake and aseries of expert elicitation workshops.The first pass assessment reviewed climatewithin and across 8 systems that make up oursociety and environment, and delivered a robust,expert-led identification of risks of nationalsignificance (DCCEEW, 2024). A final workshopconsidered how these risks can compound,cascade and aggregate across multiple systems,and identified a number of cross-system risks.

Seriously .... [bigrolf][bigrolf][bigrolf] what meaningless drivel. Oh man .... my eyes are watering I'm laughing so much. What utter crap. Are they trying to sound impressive?

An EV i just another type of car, you choose the type of ICE car that suits your needs, ranging from smaller engined vehicles for around town to larger for interstate cruising, diesel vs petrol dependent on your needs. Same with one EV compared to another EV brand or EV compared to ICE.

If an EV does not suit your need dont buy one, if it does then buy one but stop carrying on.

The level of hysteria in this thread is insane. It's just a car with a different driveline to what people are used to.

Like the radio, TV, Facebook - “Don’t like it, Scroll on”

You see it is quite obvious to the cognoscenti that Australia is actually enclosed by a huge bubble that isolates it from the rest of the World , sort of like "The Truman Show" and that anything we do will immediately have dire effects regardless of what is happening in the rest of the World. You see we produce about 0.1% of World emissions but boy Australian emissions affect Australia totally disproportionately so we must live in a bubble.
See it's obvious if you think about until your brain self destructs.
