The science is settled when you are paid to say so...https://www.manilatimes.net/2023/01/03/opinion/columns/western-media-incentivized-to-report-dubious-claims-about-climate-change/1872554?fbclid=IwAR1JtUz3ikYrHGdJOow_8H1yfJDCTxjdtkfemsetDAvsod__P9nsgVbieUw  ::)

You just can't trust the Media anymore. Nor the Scientists.
Ever since the Democrats blatantly told their fibs with the attitude - 'well what are you going to do about it anyway', with the Media on their side. It looks like its a full-on corrupt free-for-all for the money.
And we thought the Gordon Gecko saying "Greed is good" in the 80's was a bad thing.
Today - it's just gone out of control.

I remember the WA Supreme Court busted heaps of EPO's fabricating their paperwork in favour of the Mining $$$.

Every TradeMark Attorney will tell you - "It's the deepest pocket...".
That's what we are seeing now - the Deepest Pockets.

Science, like Religion - both cease to be a FACT, when its $$$ for.

I wonder how much the fossil fuel industry paid to run that story  :D

But wait! There's more! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jjNVsyGxow0  This article discusses the funding of environment policies and how the public has been largely excluded from any meaningful input into such polices. Focuses mainly on the UK but the concept is applicable everywhere.

Regardless of the CO2 issue, the filthy fossil-fuel industry is poisoning the atmosphere, that's why built up urban area are banning fossil vehicles.

Fossil-fuel combustion by-products are the world’s most significant threat to children’s health and future and are major contributors to global inequality and environmental injustice. The emissions include a myriad of toxic air pollutants and carbon dioxide (CO2), which is the most important human-produced climate-altering greenhouse gas. Synergies between air pollution and climate change can magnify the harm to children. Impacts include impairment of cognitive and behavioral development, respiratory illness, and other chronic diseases—all of which may be “seeded“ in utero and affect health and functioning immediately and over the life course. By impairing children’s health, ability to learn, and potential to contribute to society, pollution and climate change cause children to become less resilient and the communities they live in to become less equitable.

I wonder how much the CSIRO idiots got paid to put PACU PIRANHA into Papua New Guinea waters (of which the species went carnivorous and has since decimated most aquatic life in which it has infested)>?

I know NASA's motto is "It's the End of the World, but with enough Funding, it will have 5 New Worlds to exploit out there."


If it's not done for 'Free' - then its not 'true' Science.

Another "model" study. No real world data. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
