Regarding AGW it is prudent to be conservative and err on the side of caution
This is fine in theroy but the damage being done is irreversibly not to mention the huge cost and the livelihood of the people who are suffering, plus the loss of manufacturing and industry, the cost is far to high and all this is based on theroy and guesses by "some" scientists, in history scientists have been wrong as much as they are right and it is not their head in the noose but other people.
The problems of the Murray / Darling as far as I cam see are mostly man made problems by stupid burocrats, the system has always been one where even back in the paddle wheel steamer days, ships would be grounded if they did not do the turn around quickly enough
Then you have those bright P/S people who to make an extra buck sold more water rights than the system could supply, and they are still doing it.
Water from the north is an absolute necessity, and if we had a strong decisive politician telling the Aboriginals that it is not their water but belongs to the country it would achieve the required result
Taylor Wilson was 14 when he built a nuclear fusion reactor in his parents' garage.and is now wondering why the nuclear power plants being built are the same as those built in the 1950s
Why would you build a nuclear plant on a ocean coast subject to huge tidal waves, or in Canada build one on a river which has a history of flooding
As with the M/D river system most of the problems with nuclear have been made by stupid planning of bureaucrats
Although nuclear in Australia has a bad name, Australians have worked in the nuclear field for a long time.
The subs we have sort'a bought are totally unsuitable and we must purchase some nuclear subs if we are to have a significant defense on the sea so IMHO nuclear power plants will be more acceptable for Australians without all the negative press.
So IMHO as we have shot ourselves in the foot by blowing up our cheap efficient coal power plants we will be forced into nuclear as it is the only alternative for the majority of our power needs
