Australian Wildfires

Lisa Miles
Moving some posts re the Australian wildfires to a separate topic Luciano Bacco‍ 

Luciano Bacco:


Climate Crisis. The reason Australia is red. Australian wildfires have cloaked the country in a demonic red glow. As the new decade begins underneath a blood-red sky, the need for solutions is even more pressing.

    I quote your last words:  " We do need to check every "fact" presented by everyone, particularly pressure groups and the media very careful" And here I'm quite in agreement with you!

    But said this, if you are quite right, all EC Countries ( and not only them) are then fragrantly WRONG?! In other words, the EC countries are going to throw to the wind     1,000,000,000,000 euros?!
    More, there is now no doubt that almost the whole world (UK included) is going along this direction, that is, a strong contrast to the climate change!

    Sceptical people are always welcome not only on this all-importatnt matter but also in any other walks of life!

    You need to follow the money in this one. Is the money actually being spent or is it just pledged at a climate conference? Where will it actually go? Will it mostly be spent installing heavily subsidised 'renewable' generation? Will it be spent on mitigation? Who will actually profit from this? Will there be any real benefit? Germany has probably invested the most per capita on 'renewables'. It has the highest electricity prices in Europe and it's emissions aren't dropping much.


    I suggest that you look at a range of sources/views:-


    Judith Curry offer a balanced scientific view point as she is well qualified to do:
    https://judithcurry.com/

    Skeptical Science supports the strong AGW camp:
    https://skepticalscience.com/

    Jo Nova looks mostly at Australia and so is appropriate to this thread:
    http://joannenova.com.au/

    Not a lot of people know that is UK based:
    https://notalotofpeopleknowthat.wordpress.com/

    No Tricks Zone is more German/European:
    https://notrickszone.com/


    As ever don't take them at face value, follow the sources, compare their views on different subjects, try to find collaboration elsewhere.

    Best regards
