    Heck they cannot even get hurricane tracking correct, so why should anyone trust them with things infinitely more complex like forecasting climate cycles.

    But it’s true.
    Questioning climate change crowd can literally cost you your career.
    Real scientists are not afraid to be questioned. This whole movement turned into quasi-religion. Everything is taken on faith.

    Dinosaurs are still dominating ecosystems and actually are the only group that inhabits all land mass on earth.

    Exactly, what is that 'perfect' environmental state which we have to wreck our economy over? When the LW gets back to us with China and India going along with their schemes, I might pay attention.

    Totally irrelevant, but not surprising for you.

    Anthony still going?

    Love that site, look through enough of his stuff and you will find it contradicts itself

    Aaaand as usual it is a blog by someone, qualifications unknown, with no citations to back claims and some very dodgy diagrams
    But they are right about one thing

    upload_2019-12-19_1-55-29.jpeg

    Solar activity is down

    Then why is Australia in the middle of a record breaking heat wave?

    Yes and bloody reliable

    It has an extremely high reliability rating and is very well respected by all Aussies

    And they use academic writing when called for and reference material correctly

    No who else would I get information from with news about a heat wave?

    Ps I also cite the IPCC

    Apparently you are not aware that heat waves are not unusual in Australia.

    Gee wouldn’t it be nice if we had an international agreement to put pressure on..............

    And you wonder why I think he is a huge TWONK

    105 predictions for cycle 24 were all over the place so take predictions with a grain of salt. All we really know is where we are now.

    What has China actually abided by? Oh yeah. NOTHING. Promises they don’t have to keep. Their govt actively helps in stealing IP and squashing fair trade and business.

    And what other countries have pressured them into ANYTHING. You understand Trump was the first President to actually challenge all their illegal anticompetitive bull ****? No. You probably though Obama negotiated a bunch of amazing trade deals, hahah. But what would you know?

    Sadly, we have that happen in the U.S. often.

    When parents don’t make their children their top priority, this is the result.

    Nobody is telling you what caused this because nobody actually knows. Blaming man is a simpleton ploy that ignores the myriad of factors that determine climate and its changes. Maybe sweet Mother Earth is finally going to make Australia a real hell instead of the totalitarian figurative one...
