All this article tells us is that Mr. Ross Gittins believes man-made CO2 emissions are the most serious threat to our future living standards.
He might also believe in the existence of a higher power; he might believe in the non-existence of a higher power; he might believe that his favourite footy team - based on the consensus of the Footy Show experts - will most likely win the flag in 2014; he might believe the stock market will rise over the next 12 months, based on what the economists say; he might believe it will fall, on the same basis.....
And so what? Why doesn't Mr. Gittins start looking at the EVIDENCE unequivocally showing that the experts just can't get it right?
Anyway - a song for Gittins' grandkids (if the Earth is still around in 2020) with the title:
"[I'm] An Old Seer Too"
[INTRO]
Ol' Granpappy saw Somethin' bad to befall us, Was a card-carryin' member, Of the "Club AGWarmist".
[CHORUS]
If the summer's too hot, it's all CO2 If the summer's too cold, it's all CO2 If the winter's too hot, it's all CO2 If the winter's too cold, it's all CO2 And I'm tellin' y'all: If there's bushfires 'round, it's all CO2 And if cyclones abound, it's all CO2 If there's floods, don't you know, it's all CO2 If there's drought, don't you know, it's all CO2
[VERSE]
Ol' Granpappy's sore, They weren't Gittin the message, That the sky it be fallin', 'Spite Official Guessage
[CHORUS]
If the season's brought forward, it's all CO2 If the season's delayed, it's all CO2 If the plants are a'growin', it's all CO2 If there's famine afoot, it's all CO2.
[BRIDGE]
In the 20th C, the risin' GDP - that's all CO2 But it's now gonna fall, gonna take us all And THAT'S CO2.
