Climate Change - Global Warming..

 

  Don't complain AA>     The mid day humidity in this Qld hot box is stifling.

Apart from that the populations are smiling venomous reptiles who have set delusions that "they" are the greatest.

     Even believe Brisbane is a beautiful city.        Grandiose to the extreme as Brisbane is hilly mix of ugliness with Public Transport to very few .     Road infrastructure like rabbit warrens.   Peak hour nightmares.

   Despite all this , after the flood destruction a few years back ,   This hot box has recovered and is now the largest growing city in Australia.        Last years southern freeze has southerners flooding north and God help motorists in the years ahead.

   ( Buy as close to he CBD as possible for certain gain  , preferably north.

 

   I still think it is a shxt house hole and as ugly as my ex. 

 

  You are certainly out of touch with reality Sub.

Fiddles has a magic that makes him sadly missed when not posting , accusing , or complaining.

 

  I would suggest the backbone of TBV.

 

      May we rest in peace ,    The place is dead without him.

Unless, of course, Fiddles is responsible for Global Warming....

Just because Hollywood gets a holiday is no excuse for you Sheeple to slacken off -----

Hell I can't even comprehend how one big bang could create so many stars...... How's that for an invitation? 

Talk about anti-climactic and cyclical, this discussion has been washed dried and folded more than once already. 

I've explained twice already Sitter but a pic is worth somewhere between twenty and a thousand words so take a look at the graph. 

It shows peaks and troughs but an overall upward trend based on average global temperatures recorded every month. Ergo if one month is extraordinarily high and all other months are around average it will - obviously - bump the 12 month average up. Or to put it in punting terms - if you come out square for 11 months and have a big September then you'll have had a very hot year on the punt. 

They weren't trying to say anything in relation to climate.

They were commenting on overall global monthly temperatures, which roughly equates to (a snapshot of) "climate". Local temps etc are "weather" if you like. They may or may not have direct links to longer term global conditions (modelling based on a warming earth has "predicted" results similar to weather events being experienced in many parts of the globe).  

That said a 1 month result is of little statistical significance, apart from the fact that it comes on top of the warmest year in recorded history and months of big jumps in long term average temps. I was surprised that the Chief Scientist didn't make that clear in the brief radio interview I heard. He also fell into the trap of the "it's hopeless, we're losing" narrative which is very unhelpful for obvious reasons.

 

Super funds certainly have an opportunity to contribute to a cleaner planet through divestment in fossil fuels, but I don't think sceptics have one eye on their Super when it comes to believing in Climate Change. The older gen are more conservative and the younger generation are more progressive. Conservatives tends towards a user-pays approach, and paying out now so someone else gets to live in a calm climate is not in the genetic make-up of conservative ideology.

 

The younger gen, even centre-right young adults, can see a point in preventing climate change because they will BE the using-payers in 50 years when whatever is going to happen to us will already be happening.
