Today of all days, the day of Carbon Price Day, the day the world as we know it will not be sentenced to asthma, but will be destined to have fresh clean air.

You sound like a bitter broken man Reefy Alf.

Be at peace.

Do not dwell in the Howard past, do not dream of a NoNo Future, concentrate the mind on the present.

The godfather of global warming says he, and Al Gore, have been ‘alarmist’ about its effects

James Lovelock has been called the godfather of global warming.

He’s one of the world’s most honoured scientists and environmentalists.

His “Gaia theory” — that the Earth operates as a single, living organism — created an entirely new field of Earth science studies following its publication in 1979.

His electron capture detector first enabled scientists to detect CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons) and other pollutants in the atmosphere, which in many ways was the start of the modern environmental movement.

His inventions have been used by NASA.

His books on the potentially cataclysmic effects of man-made climate change — The Revenge of Gaia and The Vanishing Face of Gaia — are required reading for anyone wanting to understand modern-day thinking on global warming.

And last week, in an interview with msnbc.com, he admitted he has been unduly “alarmist” about climate change, along with others like Al Gore.

Lovelock said it’s not happening as quickly as he feared and that he and many others have been “extrapolating too far” from computer models.

“The problem is we don’t know what the climate is doing,” Lovelock said. “We thought we knew 20 years ago. That led to some alarmist books — mine included — because it looked clear-cut, but it hasn’t happened.

Read the rest from this greeny pharkwitt who have sucked in 25% of the planet in believing this climate change nonsense & pollution rubbish.

In a paper published this month, a group of four scientists from the US and Finland argue that sulfur emissions from China’s rapidly growing economy have a cooling effect on the climate, offsetting the claimed warming impact of other human activity and carbon dioxide. The implication, of course, is that once China embarks on a similar sulfur reduction program to what the US implemented a generation ago, global warming will resume apace. This is of course impossible to prove, but allows alarmist client scientists to claim that they remain relevant for the next scene in this doomsday film.

The paper is a wonderful example of members of the Cult of Global Warming determining their conclusion (in this case to defend the proposition that global warming is caused by humans) despite the persistent erosion of evidence in that direction, and then coming up with a way to explain why every significant prediction of their cult seems not to be coming true.

Surely reducing the amount of pollution is a good thing though? Ever been to LA? Can hardly breathe.

Hey Reefman

Did you see the good wraps Dr NoNo's right hand man got last night on 4 Corners re the coverups of the Church and innocent alter boys.

We all know in here what goes on.

But apparently Cardinal Pell doesn't want us too either.

Ohhhh, did I mention that Cardinal Pell is Tones guiding influence.

Cleary stop talking common sense.

Remember the concerns for the Cinese Olympics and the bad pollution a week or so out from the event.

Arrrrr who needs to breath when you live in a city?

Look there ...... three holes in the ground.

WELL - WELL - WELL

Who'd duh thunk this was about to happen. (not me that's for sure)

Peter Slipper subpoenaes LNP head Bruce McIver
... senior Coalition sources have confirmed their fears that any contact between Coalition MPs and Mr Ashby could become public as part of the case and cause political embarrassment for Tony Abbott.
...
Documents released by the court last week show much of Mr Slipper's case is likely to be based on text messages obtained from Mr Ashby's mobile telephone - a fact that has sent shudders through political circles.

Labor Party sources believe that the messages will confirm frontbencher Anthony Albanese's claim in parliament last week that Coalition MPs were "up to their necks" in a conspiracy to destroy Mr Slipper's career.

One senior Labor source said: "I understand there are thousands of texts. We've always said that we think the LNP was involved and we wonder whether the texts will shed more light on that.

"If they do, this could do major damage to Tony Abbott."

I still fail to see the point. The Australian public wants the LNP to destroy Slipper any way possible. By hook or crook. its what real Australians want.
