Climate Change

[happy daze john in oz]

It shows how we wander on this site.
Began as Climate Change now we are voting, and yes compulsory here in Oz except for over 70 in local council ones.

But we have a very large coal mine here ready to open, Siemens is to run the part of the rail line required.
They are due to sign today, but the Extinction Rebellion lot do not like this saying the coal mine will kill what is left of the world.
Who writes their script I wonder.

But the Labor party, much to the annoyance of the 'Greens' has said that coal mining will continue here in Oz as it creates jobs and brings in revenue for the nation.
But he also made a statement which for a politician was odd, he told the truth, if we do not sell the coal others will.

There may well be a conference going on about Climate, but at the end of the day the almighty dollar will have the last say on what happens.

Man may have some effect on the condition of this planet, but what is occurring now is in the opinion of many just a question of extreme weather patterns, snow in Tassie??

did it just the once, had a choice of liberal, labor, or greens. as I detest each of these parties for different reasons, I wrote "none of the above parasites " on the ballot paper. not one of them was worthy of my vote, or the $$'s they would have got if I had voted for one of them. I am too old and cranky to vote for the lesser of 3 evils.

Report on Sky news as i type, Greenland's ice caps are melting 7 times faster than they where two decades ago. All the warning signs are there the world has to wake up and smell the coffee before its to late. Terry

One report suggests:

Greenland's rapidly melting ice sheet will put 400 million people living in coastal regions at risk of flooding by the year 2100 if it keeps up its current pace.

An international team of scientists found it is melting seven times more rapidly than it did in the 1990s, putting a further 40 million people who live in coastal regions at risk.

The damning research predicts sea levels could rise more than two feet (67cm) by the end of the century.

Seems to be taken by many that helped cause it: not to be our problem.

Terry, that is very true, but about 500,000 thousand years ago it gort the name because it was just that a Greenland with no ice.

This could well be a change not of climate but global positioning to the sun and variations in the suns rays.
The sun is currently in a waning cycle.

Quite the opposite, I believe it was an early marketing effort by a Viking as no one would have been prepared to be
enticed to go there had they been told how inhospitable it really was.
