If they were serious about reducing carbon why did they exclude fuel for vehicles from the tax, there is a huge ammount of carbon produced by vehicle emissions
man id seriously be interested to hear his input on whether climate change is happening.
again with the tax, the issue of whether science confirms climate change, has nothing to do with the ins-outs of administering a tax that you dont agree with.

Even with all the polluting we are doing would be nothing compared to the history of volcano's going off, Its "to me " a cycle of the world. Its happened before just like the opposite has happened before.
yeh, it makes sense that volcanoes being around much longer than us, are a natural part of the planets cycle/s. but us developing concrete cities and all the resulting junk we put into the atmosphere, isnt part of that cycle.

millions of dollars and no real results? i thought we were talking climate change not rossi and ducati ?? LOLOLOL.
but seriously there are heaps of peer reviewed studies confirming climate change... which ones have you read?
hey i hope they're all wrong..i want as many bikes in the garage as the next guy.

I've read a fair few from so called scientific experts that confirm Climate change....... the only problem is, that i've also read just as many from so called scientific experts that say Climate change is all crap. So if the so called experts cant sort it out, how can anyone lean one way or the other. It's a bit like religion, people believe what they want without any real first hand experience.
So i'll just go with what I have experienced, what my parents have experienced and what my grand parents have experienced. Sometimes it's hot and sometimes it's not. Sometimes it rains and sometimes it doesn't............

If anyone can produce enough evidence to convince me unreservedly, then I'll believe it.

Until then, I look to the puppeteer for this. This being the bloody Greens, who dictate what happens and how.

Fuckwits they are! They should be called the anti-progress party!

Last line is the kicker ...... "The origin of the extra CO2 however remains a mystery, "

Heard the Hack program on JJJ & about "I can change " all I can say is the dude was very patient & has plenty of valid points....... I do like the fact that both agreed that there should be a move to more sustainable energy sources, but I am still on the fence about CC

Can someone please move this trainwreck of a thread into OFF TOPIC! Pretty please?

I'm doing my best to avoid posting in this thread, but it would be much easier if it wasn't in with all the bike stuff so I was constantly seeing it!

To end the debate there is climate change it is called the WEATHER :roll: :roll: :roll: and living at Kurnell I would very much appreciate a rising water level as my property will increase in value the closer the water gets to it :D :D :D
