The worlds largest Carbon emitter per capita, Australia, will be the hardest hit in the OECD by AGW and its effects.

Cant escape karma.

Australia only emits 1.5% of all manmade CO2 emissions.

All the coal fired power stations that were built in China last couple of years emit more CO2 than Australia as a whole.

If Australia stopped CO2 emissions right now today.

It wouldn't even make a difference by the end of this financial year.

That's how much Australian emissions are...???

On the ladder we're about 15th in the world, we're not even in the top ten.

So exporting coal is irresponsible...so is that why Labs and Libs regardless of whether one had a carbon tax or not increased coal exports?

If it means we have to spend billions of dollars to get an unreasonable outcome then YES...!!!

Have a look at Australias contribution to the supposed warming in accordance with IPCC findings....?????

That, you'll need to ask them.

On that, we'll have to agree to disagree. I reckon every nation must do its share, no matter how small.

The BOM has difficulty in getting tomorrows weather forecast right let alone weather patterns 50 years away.

True, however, seeing as it's 50 years away they'll call it "climate".

You gotta watch these sly little alarmists.

That would be your opinion, based on ignorance and ego, right, young wanker*?

The rainy period that will last for about 7 years is due some time soon.

Here in Sydney we'll be flooded out.

The drought in Sydney has lasted several years now, and we're currently experiencing one of the longest drought in living memory.

It's difficult to forecast short term events like that. It would be nice if we got some rain this year here too, although what we got earlier this year was a bit over the top. 800mm in 24 hours

No, that would be my opinion based on close observation of the alarmists' "argument" in this forum.

They have a knack of employing different terms at different times in order to back pedal their way out of difficult situations.

" it's not climate, it's weather ... it's not AGW, it's climate change ... it's not weather, it's climate ... it's not cooling, it's a weather event ... " etc. etc. etc. etc.

And, when that fails, they resort to personal insults.

All too predictable, I'm afraid.

They are chalk and cheese.
