The Climate Change Hoax
Certainly far more believable than all the political and media rhetoric. Cheers, Fred

Dunning and Kruger were probably 'paid by the government' too

Pseudo-scientific bull crap. Right up there with the hoax of tobacco causing lung cancer and the viruses causing disease hoax.

I thought the Dunning Kruger effect was the government
The person who never made a mistake never made anything

There is no doubt climate change is upon us and if you live anywhere near the ocean you should be prepared to evacuate to higher ground at a moment's notice as the seas rise with the melting of the ice caps. However if you live near Wollongong you're probably OK as it seems to be defying the laws of nature (i.e. water finds its own level). I recently visited Towradgi rock pool and it looked exactly the same as it did fifty six years ago when my father made me swim three hundred yards there before I was allowed into the ocean on a surfboard.

Yeah, it's so much safer, easier and less challenging staying in one's comfort zone isn't it? Especially when there is a much shorter future left in one's life. Why worry? Someone else will (try to) fix the mess. Just like having a maid really.
A question though Dareen: do you grandchildren share your view of their future?
Keep fiddling - the flames aren't too high yet. There's still a few buildings left to go before there's nothing at all left....

Times like these I feel less of a need for this subforum. Here for woodworking, not science for the insane.

Sigh...
More evidence that Dunning/Kruger were right.
Sadly, confirmation and disconformation bias is also alive & well - no amount of objective fact will stand in the way of predetermined belief. ("The Enigma of Reason by "Sperber & Mercier" is a good read if you have the time).
I do find it disheartening that a goodly amount of effort, energy & public resource has been spent on education that has obviously failed so many.

I don't recall seeing any proper evidence yet from a denier, in the various threads here. Maybe there's a reason for that? Have seen lots of links to some blokes on the net though (always blokes too....). That Peter Temple twat has worked for the oil industry....say no more on his lack of credibility....
As do I, but it's not all wasted Ross - apparently there has been quite an uptick in fence sitters now accepting the facts, after Black Summer (and if that doesn't convince people then they are just ignoring evidence right in front of them....at their grandchildren's peril )
That is quite right, and as NeilS has also said: it's a waste of time and energy trying to get deniers to see reason - they don't want to - too dangerous for them. I couldn't be fagged participating in this thread any more - it's just giving it oxygen (unless something really has to be refuted as complete tosh).

Some more irrelevant climate info from another "bloke on the Internet". You're under no obligation to read it...

LOL. That's what I love about these discussions. Even when they're caught with their hand in the till the lefties always have an answer (no matter how silly it is)
