Now back to climate change and the stance by Trump and others.
calling climate change a hoax isn't really calling climate change itself a hoax. The FACT is, no one really knows what impact we have.
Now, you have all the greenies talking about the science. They say climate change is occuring and the world is warming. Well, the fact is we don't know for sure. They don't have the evidence that this is in fact true. But it may be true.
Man hasn't been recording temporatures long enough to know. But they will point to the ice caps. Yes but the fact is, ice caps have been forming and melting for milenia as earth goes through its warming and cooling cycles.
Now, politicians like Trump and Morrisson know this. They don't actually call climate change a hoax, but the hysteria instead. Pointing to the fact that the science isn't rock solid. And it isn't.
The most destructive thing man is doing is cutting old groiwth forests and rainforests. That does have an impact somewhere along the line to the detriment of planet. Plus all our rubbish and waste.
But Carbon Emmissions. Well Carbon levels still remain constant. The science is too airy fairy.
But, haveing said all of the above, it's best to presume that our carbon emmissions do in actual fact have a dire impact and do warm the planet. That's where I stand on the issue.
Because only good can come out of going full on green and build up renewable energy sources. In that regard, the EU, US and Australia are among global leaders. We are all investing in renewable energy in huge ammounts.
I think you will all find, that Trump was playing politics in order to back out of the Paris Summits. Nothing wrong with that and he wasn't the only one gunning for Paris either. Australia is even worse in terms for wanting to gun down the Paris Summit. The reason for this is that in Australia there is a sentiment that it's all bogus and strives to hit us and our country. That's why we don't want to be a part of it.
It doesn't mean our government is anti climate change. 30% of our total energy is renewable. I believe it's among the highest in the world. Clearly, we don't need paris to recognoze that we need to do the right thing.
Now, what we do know is global weather patterns are governed by ocean currents and 2 phenomena known as La Nina, and El Ninio. When we have El Ninio, we have droughts and hot summers. With La Nina, we have floods and cold. This has been occuring for thousands of years.
When Trump or Morrison are calling out the scientists, and in Trump's case saying its a hoax even, it's because they are playing politics against the Paris Summit because as primary energy producers they simply don't want to go. they are looking after there specific national interests.
