    So much for global warming

    You're part of the problem too. If you think like that you're totally uninformed and part of the problem. If it really was "all good" I wouldn't give a hoot. The trouble is, it's not good and worse "it" is making the situation worse. Take our Vic desalinator. A "knee-jerk" decision...

    So much for global warming

    Get off the fence... CJ... Darn right. You got it. PERFECT. If you're a declared fence-sitter then you're part of the problem. Read books. Educate yourself. 1) "The Climate Caper" ...by a retired CSIRO scientist who tells how funding within the CSIRO is dependant on the scientist...

    So much for global warming

    You missed the point because you're so blinded by your AGW religion. (duhh, that's my point actually...) The zealots didn't make the floods worse and I never said they did. What your mob did (with the help of the equally blinkered media) and CONTINUE to do, is focus on "all the devils" that...

    So much for global warming

    In praise of Professor Bob Carter I just finished reading "Climate- The Counter Consensus" by Prof Bob Carter ( Townsville Uni). A terrific book! Recommended if you want the facts. Bob makes the point that the real tragedy of the "success" of the AGW/ climate change mob in dominating opinion...

    So much for global warming

    A good read. A pertinent quote... " Already the widely read blogsite for climate scientists, Realclimate.org, is promising to promptly post data and relevant computer codes on its site." It appears that the CRU temp. data and the computer code may AT LAST be available for scrutiny. Then we...

    So much for global warming

    The vested interest argument is pointless and works both ways. Both the alarmists and the skeptics have their funding. That's the way it's done. It doesn't matter where or how the truth comes from. As long as we get to the truth. Unless you personally don't use petrol or electricity or steel...

    So much for global warming

    Consensus actually amounts to "zip". (In effect, your argument is that I should believe because you/he/she believes. That's just rubbish.) Consensus among vested interests amounts to even "less than zip". LL

    So much for global warming

    I remember it well. The software companies made out big-time. But that's not the point. The point is, in this case, was it ALL necessary? My recollection was Y2K rolled around just like any other new-year without so much as one problem. Now wouldn't you think that IF the problem was so huge...

    So much for global warming

    Which brings us to watermelons. The new term that has emerged from Copenhagen. Watermelons. Green on the outside. Red on the inside. LL

    So much for global warming

    I'm now at the stage wherre I just cannot believe that anybody takes any of this crap seriously. Let me recall ...... 1) Through the luck of the ballot I was "excused" for Vietnam, but I remember well how the domino theory meant those dreaded communists were almost upon us. Didn't happen. 2)...

    So much for global warming

    At one stage this was our biggest threat !! Don't forget, at one stage , horse manure was the biggest problem. Some would say, give Copenhagen, this hasn't changed. LL

    So much for global warming

    Now I know you understand climate but what about.... Now I know that many here completely understand all this climate stuff with all it's global parameters ...but do you understand a simple single-cell bacteria? Compared to a complex issue like global climate it should be a breeze ...right ...

    So much for global warming

    I accept your point Sunfish. (The link from OO had almost nothing to do with AGW. ) In any case, having visited the Barrier Reef several times I'd suggest the main threat to the reef by a LONG shot is not AGW but "over-touristing" . LL

    So much for global warming

    AGW computer code examined. Has flaws. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XOsLbsxOXPs In this short BBC video the AGW computer code is examined. Totally unbelievebale if this is what we're basing the "future of the planet" on . LL

    So much for global warming

    What about the reefs in the tropics ? If all these potential threats from warming are true, then how come some of the "richest" coral reefs are in New Guinea? Hotter water? Must be. More sun? Surely. Now I'm not an expert on coral reefs, but Cousteau should be a reasonable judge...

    So much for global warming

    Always interesting as it shows how exagerated it all has become. These quotes from the IPCC reports Quote .. What will be the contribution of the ice sheets to future sea level rise? The IPCC AR4 projected that sea level rise from thermal expansion of the ocean, melt of small glaciers and...

    So much for global warming

    Just pick your station data "right"!! Yes. This article seems very well thought and analysed and if your read the comments, the "peer review" seems to accept his case. But, see my previous post and the link to the Darwin data. If you select your data (i.e. stations) "RIGHT" ;) in the first...
