Current Affairs 🌡️ Weather / climate change

Beg to differ but science is never settled, in anything.

It's only ever set for the timeframe in which the research is studied and who is studying. There may be a change tomorrow, that's how science evolves.

The IPCC for example has readjusted their position many times, their stance on CH4 as an example.
Sure, well differed, anthropogenic climate change is accelerating and will only get worse Rick.

That is fact. Independent of you and I.

It's inconvenient for one side of politics, and for profits, but it's happening regardless

More blatant misinformation 🤦‍♂️

New Zealand National Party officially believes in and accepts the scientific consensus that climate change is real, human-induced, and poses significant risks to the country

As a party, they are committed to the 2050 net-zero emissions target and international obligations under the Paris Agreement.

The right generally prefers to adapt and live with changes whereas the left prefer scaremongering, claiming it as their issue only and using punitive measures.

 
You rail against the machine yet follow a site run by the Koch Bros. LMFAO
Sure, it was a quick google at work, as I've no doubt the site you provided and endorse is pretty shonky Rick.

Can you provide the information you've found where you link to the Koch Bros?

The link is yourself. You have hundreds of posts here about corruption and shonky deals amongst the rich and famous. CMD is just another group funded by rich listers. Maybe they are rich listers with a cause, maybe not.
Soros and Schwab are among their big donors so I guess they are totally influence free.

This is the right wing version of CMD for balance purposes only ;)

As you have described often on here, everybody wants something and one thing is for certain that "Dark Money" sits on both sides of the fence
CMD went after the Koch Bros so I would suggest if you were in their position it would make sense to drop some money and maybe personnel in there for a rainy day. Not all of CMD's donors are published.

And yes, STT has some claims that are beyond the pale but there are also a few good point in there.

I just don't think wind and solar on a grand scale is the answer (ok for a back yard project), they are an environmental blight and they have a short shelf life and require an enormous amount of fossil fuels to build and run. Plus they are not particularly recyclable and cannot operate without serious subsidies

I'm more of a hydro, geothermal (especially hot rock) and nuclear advocate

Plus, No LNG for Taranaki

Yeah they're so committed they're investing a billion in lpg.

Here's what you replied:

When asked where it said the site above was run by the Koch bros, as you've alleged, you've said the link is myself.

So you can't provide the proof to back up what you've stated as fact.

Then follows.....well, not much, seems more like a rant up until the wind and solar bit.

Anyways, I'll leave it there.

As one who always answers the questions asked of him you are right, lets leave it there
 
For those that think our bovine population is a world ending methane problem, have a look at Lake Abraham in Alberta and the frozen CH4 bubbles. Wouldn't want to be around if that lot defrosted suddenly
