    Very easy to pay, just get Blair and his mates such as Brown and Milliband to cough up.
    Happy daze John in Oz.

    A major audit should be conducted on all the African countries to see how much has been taken by present and former leaders of these countries, just since the second world war, would probably end up with those countries being richer than any other in the world.

    Des, correct mate just how much have nations paid into overseas aid funds since WW2.
    Trillions I suspect.
    But to no avail as many are little better than before.

    Maybe the west should cut back and make them work for what they want.

    But yesterday one of the EU gov ministers came out and said that all the fuss about the climate is nothing more than a new form of religion and should be ignored by the masses.

    The danger in that is she may never be seen again .
    Happy daze John in Oz.

    Hi John.
    This climate change is been skewed around, the Pacific islands now want Australia to pay them $billions, what's that going to achieve other than put money in someone's pocket, nothing to change the climate.

    Des mate spot on.
    Like all who went to sea we know that water when it rises finds a level.
    If seas are rising now one would expect the rise to be uniform.

    I can go down to Port Melbourne and see water lines taha have not changed since I first saw them back in 1964.

    One poli here spoke the other day and said,
    'It is time those who claim all this about the climate spoke the truth and let the public make up their own mind'

    We have a state erection in a couple of weeks, had a flyer in the mail from one independent who obviously must have just dropped in from outer space judging by her comments on the climate.
    Sadly there are some who will believe her.
    Happy daze John in Oz.

    John it is a well documented fact that sea temperatures are globally increasing.

    The effects of ocean warming include sea level rise due to thermal expansion. So you may think that what you are seeing in the Port of Melbourne are the same since 1964 but your eyes may well be deceiving you.
    The Great barrier reef is dying due to increasing sea temperatures.

    https://thecorrespondent.com/397/the...s-to-all-of-us

    The Arabian Gulf sea temperature is increasing by an average of 0.4 degrees C every years since the 1980's The highest temperature I can remember was just under 35 degs C back in 2000.

    Abstract
    The Arabian or Persian Gulf is recognized as one of the warmest estuaries globally. The sea surface temperature (SST) has been utilized in several studies to gauge the global warming associated with climate change. In the current investigation we present detailed in situ SST measurements for five consecutive years (2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020) in the northwest of the Gulf, specifically in Kuwait Bay. Results of data analyses were compared with the historical records for the region, revealing that the SST reached an extreme level never previously recorded either in the Gulf. The extreme SST in Kuwait Bay reached 37.6 °C, recorded by the offshore station KISR01 located in the middle of the Bay. The event was associated with heatwave, neap tides, and an extended period of Kous winds which are characterized by high humidity levels and accompanied by large-scale intermittent fish kill incidents that extended the full length of the Kuwait coastline. Several fish kill incidents were reported also at the northern edge of the Gulf along Shatt Al Arab stretch in Iraq. The species found dead during the incident varied considerably, unlike those found in the frequent summer incidents. The records presented in this study may provide evidence to the effects of global warming, aid further research, and encourage the concerned international government bodies to deliver urgent environmental policies.

    My late wife and I visited Australia for 6 months out of each year plus one of those years twice from 1986-1895. Both of us had/have*Master Scuba Divers qualification and we have over 200 logged dives on the Great Barrier Reef and adjacent islands of the coast of Queensland.*
    *
    About our second year of diving the Reef, two things happened on the top reaches of the G.B.R. (above Port Douglas, Queensland). One was the start of coral bleaching, the other was a form of the starfish family called the Crown of Thorns.* Coral bleaching was caused by elevation*of the ocean water, the second*by the Crown of Thorns which, leaving it bleached white having sucked the nutrients*out of the living coral, then moving to a fresh coral head, both methods moving steadily down offshore, both following the increase in ocean temperature.* Additionally, to add to this, the heat rising from the increased ocean temperature caused more frequent cyclonic action and more fresh water laced with chemical*fertilizer being dumped, via flooding, into coastal*waters. This caused massive amounts of polluted freshwater to dilute*the salinity of the shoreline which in turn added to the bleaching of coral.

    Our first dives on the reef were in Far*North Queensland with magnificent acres of varieties of living coral.* Later my wife and I had the wonderful experience*of witnessing living coral spawning, while on a night dive. To digress a bit, the chance of witnessing this is a*chance in a million as coral spawns by a combination of a lunar cycle and the perfect temperature of the water. Chances of being in the right place at the right time scuba diving, relying on a set amount of air, meaning limited diving time, is a million to one shot and pure good fortune.

    So, we witnessed a pristine G.B.R. and twelve years of the advancement of destruction during our years in Oz, in the waters off Holborn Island, which is about 30miles offshore*of Bowen, Queensland and also the Whitsunday Islands a thousand or more miles from Port Douglas, Queensland, all within a twelve-year period.* God knows*what condition the Reef and Islands must be like today. So sad, the GBR was listed as one of the seven natural wonders of the world.* If it's listed as such today, it must be listed by non-divers.

    Tears, not cheers, Rodney*

    Rod.
    Since the advent of those Crown of Thorn, which they believed dropped off from the hull of ships with the increased trading for coal off the Bowen Basin, the destruction of the Barrier Reef continues. Three years ago our Govt gave a Company all of whom were executives from large Companies who were studying the Reef $500 million, they said they didn't want the money as their studies didn't need it, but the Govt insisted, despite other groups who were doing great work were struggling. It's become a political football. And it is one of the finest reefs in the world.

    James there is no doubt that the level of sea water here in Melbourne is no different to all those years ago.
    Not my eyes at all, the water levels at the beaches is also no different.
    We go to a number of them and have done for years so I know what I say.

    There is now a push here for the so called experts to slow down, as has been reported by a numb er of news services they spread only fear, not truth.

    Very good friend of mine, 42 years at the Melbourne weather bureau, seen all the records for the nation since early settlement, nothing new in the current info being released to the public, in fact one flood level now claimed to be a record is in fact almost one meter lower then recorded in the same spot in 1896.
    The marker post with all the highs since 1875 are marked on it.

    One reason for a third year of La Nina here in Oz is the cooling of the southern oceans.
    As you know there is a finite amount of water on the planet, it manifests itself in many forms.
    Severe drought sees large amounts of water drawn into the atmosphere.
    There then comes the point where it can no longer hold it all, it must be retuned to earth.
    The cooling of the southern oceans for the last three years has made this region most suitable for severe precipitation which we have had in spades.
    So there may be some warming of waters in parts, but not globally.
