I knew the tax was based on lies before I watched the vid 
, found the rest of it interesting though. J
I guess the real scientists of the world that devote their life to this will never be heard.
CO2 affects warming. Its a greenhouse gas.
Over the past few millions of years when we go from a glacial into an interglacial an increase in temperature is defined by an increase in both carbon and methane.
i say the guy is talking sh!te.
Its like saying there is already 5 parts hydrochloric acid in water and if you add another part it wont make any difference.
Its also interesting that all the references from the vid are from their own sources.

So the guy doesn't have any formal science qualification and is a businessman who has an interest in Mining. Righto his viewpoint won't have any bias.
grist.org/series/skeptics/ Topics. Flysurfer, how many times are you going to bring up dodgy arguments about GW then just go on to the next bit of dodgy science when someone points out answers to these fake vids. FFS man!

The Movement's panel of advisors are: Andrew Bolt, Ian Plimer, Bob Carter and David Flint - his great and good mate Alan Jones is the Movement's "patron".
More rubbish endorsed by Australia's biggest dickhead Alan "cottaging" jones and Australia's 2nd biggest dickhead Andrew "whiny private schoolboy" Bolt.
I'm sure this will be ignored so here goes an experiment:
...maybe people would be more receptive if and when they accept the future will be windier.
Hmm you might have a point.
An image search for 'australia's biggest dickhead' did turn up this:
However I don't think AB can truly claim the prize until chopper calls him out on daytime TV.
geez you blokes know heaps of smart stuff. i saw so many sentences with big words that i just knew i should be impressed and believe all sides. now were has my tin foiled hat gotten to
Forget CO2, global warming, whatever, blah blah blah...
Did that dude EVER blink?
Nictating membranes... just putting it out there 
I found this a very interesting show last week.

Unfortunately, the best looker on the program (young 'Anna') also was way out of her depth & kept rattling on about how "we need to 'fix' climate change", when even the scientists know that 'climate change' can't just be 'fixed' as it's out of our hands (not to say we can't try to reduce our footprint).
Clive came across as the multi-billionaire that he is with vested interest in mining...although made very valid points that were supported by most panellists.
Nasa have a wicked website with interactive flash things going on.
All a bit scary really

Global warming is real!! every arvo the sun light hits my outside shed light globe and it warms ups dramatically!!!
The key sticking point is that humans are emotional beings. We respond to emotion...Not facts or logic. Which is why you can't truly change someone's mind by logical, factual argument. You have to win their core, primitive emotion.
It's why noone changes their mind after reading this thread.
Humans are far simpler than we think we are. Logic and facts are a thin veneer. We have to win the emotional argument of global warming...But how the f#$% do you do that when the solution is all short-to-mid-term inconvenience, pain and downside?
If we weren't driven by emotion over logic and facts then noone would ever get married!!
....as Panda pointed out, the innovation grants should provide Australian bright sparks with start up cash to really generate some inventive minds. I reckon it's a great solution to a serious problem
Trees breathe co2 and turn it into oxygen that is good but we keep chopping them all down and excess co2 that doesn't get absorbed by trees gets stored in the ocean it affects ocean ph which therefore affects everything it can't go into the atmosphere as the atmosphere is saturated with it so it goes in the ocean theph change kills fish and creates dead zones it affects all world currents
From song viva la vida,
Never an honest word
that was when I ruled the world.
I used to rule the world
SEAS WOULD RISE WHEN I GAVE THE WORD
Now in the morning, I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own
I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing:
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"
One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles [BELIEFS] stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
Once you go there was never, never an honest word
That was when I ruled the world
It was a wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
People couldn't believe what I'd become
Revolutionaries wait
For my head on a silver plate
Just a puppet on a lonely string
Oh who would ever want to be king
So Flysurfer,I take it from your non response that you, a: can't be bothered to reply to some of the responses to your "rice video". b: Have no response to give, or c: don't really care about the science but see the issue as a way to promote an attack on the government policy. Normally, in a discussion like this you might come back with a response conceding that your position has changed and you now support the science.........................waiting
Too late suckers.
For the first time on record, the Tasmanian capital managed six days in April at 24C or above.
Hobart's average daytime temperature of 19.6C equalled the record for the month, achieved only once before in 130 years of record-keeping, in 1993.
