Thread: Climate Change and our Land of Fire, Flood and Drought.

Of course the Australian blokes way is to make light of problems, joke about it, then ignore it. I get it. Sarcasm. Cynicism. Yup all very funny 😂

But if we buy into the populism and continue to swallow big oil / coal BS and ignore this one we will all regret it. The ecosystem is on the verge of collapse.

No matter what car you drive.

Consensus is not science. It is politics.
If consensus was science, the World would be flat.
The sun would rotate around the Earth.
Black swans would not exist.
Bleeding would be a cure for illness.

The atom could not be split.

All were the subject of consensus.

Yep no room for jokes, and posts comic...


For every comic you post and could post a cat meme that says the opposite...

Oh I also have a science degree and for what it's worth I don't endorse that paper.
And what is it worth exactly? Just as much as each person those who did.
i.e. bugger all.

The thing that annoys me the most is that it's very common for members of the climate change alarmist crowd to -

1. Tell others what they should do.

2. Tell us that irrespective of what other countries do, we should lead by example.

3. Fail to lead by example at an individual level.

Wars are happening in Africa and other places and will get worse in future because climate change is causing people to move from drying areas, bringing them into conflict with residents. That's one of the reasons there are more than 60 million refugees.
Saw this interesting graph in the Herberton Mining Museum yesterday.
Note the top line for the sea level, which results from global warming. The sea level was last this high 120,000 years ago.

are humans responsible for all of those sea level changes?

i didnt know the great barrier reef was only 10,000 years old.

In Ice Ages the water is frozen at the poles and the sea level is much lower, so you can't have a living reef on dry land.
I think I've mentioned previously seeing a sign on the foreshore near Wynnum saying that the water level was once 50 metres lower than it is now. Most of Morten Bay would have been dry land. You could have walked to some of the islands.
That's how people got to Australia from Africa.
