Or maybe it's time to plan a mass exodus back to the UK...:eek:

Climate Change is currently ranking below Carbon Tax in my 'things to give a toss about' list.

And there is a lot above those two.

Oh look, a bunch of right wing zealots decrying an article on what the evidence says will happen, is happening; you know, facts and stuff. All because they don't want to accept the consequences of their actions.
"Some of them do, but they don't care," he says. "Or they don't think about it. Australians have a hard time imagining the future will be any different than the present."

Cool, name calling - my favourite part of BE, and I didn't start it.

I'm off to get the popcorn...
*sits back to watch the ensuing fruitless debate*

FWIW, I do believe in climate change but the article does seem a bit one-sided... The planet has gone through many cycles of climate change before and will go through many more most likely. However, we are certainly doing nothing to slow it down. We're probably even helping to speed it up, which does not really seem in our best interest.

I'm also not going to get too involved in this. I believe:
GW is probably happening
Humans are not causing it
The current MMGW hysteria is a way to redistribute wealth from the 1st world to the 3rd world and to destroy the west, and for certain vested interests to make a lot of money out of it

Just because the priceless Ming vase is wobbling, doesn't mean its a good idea to swipe it onto the floor.

Let's just be happy that at least some stoopidity has been averted - Palin has promised not to run and Bachmann is out of money. Now we just need a gay sex scandal to knock out Perry and three of the worst climate ****wits will be guaranteed to not get into a position to do harm.
