Climate rears up again
There have been a number of articles here in Oz on the subject.
A reply from one of the more admired scientists here in Oz and a specialist in many aspects of the subject.
Some 97% of scientists say Global warming and Climate change are real.
Fact. About 20 scientists wrote papers on the subject, they were read by a majority of scientists who made no further comment.
It is a manner in which the public can be controlled by various govs and others to their advantage.
How many companies are getting super rich from this?
It will be a way of controlling global population as many third world countries will not be able to comply.
Scientists understand that over the past some 65 million years there have been a magnitude of climate changes, many brought about by volcanic activity which put more emissions into the atmosphere than man could at any time.
Just something to think about for those convinced that this is all true and climate change the way we are told will happen!!!!!


Happy daze John in Oz.

Re: Climate rears up again
So does a Volcanic eruption cause or have an impact on the climate or is it the planet evolving.
Who remembers Mount St Helens 1980. The ash cloud from the eruption in Iceland 2015? Shutdown european air travel for several days.
These eruptions had an affect on the planet. The Iceland one caused a hole in the ozone layer over the Artic.
Some scientists say there is climate change others say there is not it is the planet evolving creates weather patterns.
Well I suppose one day we will find out who is right.
It is a well documented fact that man made chemicals had an effect on the Ozone layer that helps keep us safer from Skin Cancers. With the banning of many CFC's, Halons and a reduction No 2 from traffic exhaust emissions. We want cars the sooner we have Hyrogen fuelled cars the better.

Re: Climate rears up again
Climate change was born in 1972, when after a really hot summer someone managed to link a spike in Co2 output with the hot weather. No one challenged his theory, no one researched it, and thus climate change was born.
Indicators in the past show the Co2 has spiked 600ppm, and yes we AR still here.
Other scientists believe that earth has a natural of weather patterns, such as we have on a yearly basis, these scientist believe that we are in a warming period and eventually the planet will enter cool period, of course this thinking is alien to the climate change believers.
The earth at the moment has about 420ppm Co2 in the atmosphere, of that, about 250 ppm is caused by nature itself.

Re: Climate rears up again
To most people Vic the Sun is just a ball in the heavens ,that ball is 240 times bigger that the earth and is still smaller than a lot of stars we can see. The moon is about one third the size of earth and only 240,000 miles away , most seamen have done well over that distance. We are all still midgets in knowledge when it comes down to it , was going to say when we come down to earth , but we are already here.,Cheers JS.

Re: Climate rears up again
I think the earth always used to put itself right by controlling populations, often the cause of most things going wrong with the planet. Trouble is, we have developed ways of sidestepping natures cleverness.
Vaccines are probably one cause, because they dodge the natural way of population control. Then there's science and technology, which enables us to smother ourselves with all that filth in the air.
Trouble is, we make laws to prevent it all doing us harm, but only a few of us stick to it, making our clean air whiz off in the wind to places like China, India, and the rest of them that don't stick to it, then that same wind brings us all the crap air from the east and elsewhere.
I think nature will find ways of cutting populations, but it won't pick and choose who.
Hydrogen is the way forward, but for some reason the fatcats won't allow it yet. I've driven hydrogen cars years ago, along with other types of cleaner fuels, but I'm baffled as to why (as far as we know) they weren't developed further. The fatcats will of course know why, but just keep it to themselves.
It'll be up to our grandkids to sort out for themselves eventually.

Re: Climate rears up again
#5 it is also the consensus of opinion that the earth originally broke off from the sun Johnny. Billions of years ago and went through its childhood cooling and finished up as a ball of water. All life originated from this ball of water and over millions of eons and different life forms man finally appeared . It’s another provable theory of how life began, and just as believable as Adam and Eve. The human mind over the millenniums has to believe in something and probably more feasible than believing we arrived via a kipper. Just our luck in millions of years time that the earth will return to its original state and hey ho its back to sea we go ? Any sane minded person would leave fate in the lap of God if they believe in one. Cheers JS.

Re: Climate rears up again
One of the greatest polluters of today is the Airplane, just taking London airport as an example, has anyone stood at the window in the airport and watched a plane start up its engines? clouds of spent aviation fuel erupts into the air then taking off the same, hundreds of thousands of flights a year, and that from the one airport, how many hundreds are on Earth? It is ignored by politician's as they LOVE to travel by air, instead of using the internet like the Plebs. by the time they go from A to B a war could have started.

Re: Climate rears up again
Maybe that’s the idea Des , they’re in the safest place , can’t take the blame and can land in any safe country ?
Any wars going on at present and they are plenty is just another increase to the pollution problem. JS

Again an example of which point of view one wants to believe , another example of this is a recent report that the Corona virus outbreak was manufactured in Wuhan China
by the US with the idea of reducing the world's population . Believe it or not but it makes sense to me.

Re: Climate rears up again
Another way of looking at it is.
You could probably create a covid like disease for a hundred quid, then make trillions on an antidote. Where there's muck there's money.
