One for the climate change sceptics

"Stolen emails". One might also wonder why those determined to undermine
the CC hypothesis were prepared to break the law - and were seemingly well
equipped to do so and very effective at covering their tracks.

 

heh, bookmarked.

Well, you could argue a "public interest" defence, given the refusal to
supply data.

 

Interesting article. And well placed arguments. My point is still can
we afford to take the chance. The author of that article says "we
don't know what is causing the rising". And then goes on to say it
can't be CO2. For me, I'm inclined to take the conservative option and
assume it does, until we can be sure that it is not the cause.

It's like the Y2K bug which a lot of people thought was a dud. No, it
wasn't a dud. We got warned and did something about it. A few systems
went down, but because we had the warning we fixed what _might_ have
been a potentially catastrophic situation. We had chaos here in
Orstralia on New Years day when one of our major banks' computers
jumped from 2009 to 2016 instead of 2010. Everyone's cards wouldn't
work as they were perceived by the system to be out of date. It was
our mini version of Y2K.

Of course our computer models aren't perfect. And maybe it isn't CO2,
but I'm prepared to pay extra taxes to eliminate it as a possibility.
As we all had to pay for the tech changes on Y2K (admittedly on a
vastly less expensive scael).
