    There's not much i agree with when it comes to John Howard but on this subject i agree 100%.

    Like one of the mums said why not present the science and let the kids make up their own minds.

    The science is NOT in that AGW is the cause of the Earth's climate change.

    Brainwashing our kids at school thats a disgrace.

    Good idea. And by "science" - that would be actual science - not Plimer's fantasies:

    Over the past 250 years, humans have added just one part of CO2 in 10,000 to the atmosphere. One volcanic cough can do this in a day.

    http://www.abc.net.au/unleashed/stories/s2655036.htm

    errrr...no Professor. Wrong.

    The Mount Pinatubo eruption emitted 42 million tonnes of CO2 (Gerlach et al 1996). Compare this to human emissions in 1991: 23 billion tonnes of CO2 (CDIAC). The strongest eruption over the last half-century amounted to 0.2% of human CO2 emissions in that year.

    Actually - it is. That is the point.



    Funny how the Rodent was all for an ETS in 2007 - now he is back with the deniers. Just like his mate Tony "climate change is crap" Abbot....errrr wait - no - Tony now believes in climate change and wants to have a Great Big Tax to pay for Direct Action to stop it. (*)(*)(*)(*) it's hard to keep up with these Liberals!

    You are already brainwashed when made to stand up and say the pledge every morning in school. A little AGW to it, what's the difference.

    Besides, the entire public school system as an idea was invented for the purpose of brainwashing, before you think education. The public school system is a descendant of the french revolution and its purpose was to shame those children who didn't learn Parisian french from their parents but some provincial "dialect".

    Sorry, not everyone is American, so I must state, that at every US public schools, the morning starts with everyone standing up and reciting the Pledge of Allegence to the USA. I agree that you should have allegence to the country you subscribe to, but forcing you to ritually re-declare it every day is brainwashing. How can you think of alternatives should you chose to if you keep reciting the same thing over and over again?

    Yeah..well..I think it is fairly well understood by the other 95% of the world's population that Americans are retarded.

    BTW: This is actually the Australian section. You wont find many Americans in this bit.

    Only to New Zealanders. But they also think that women are "the sheep of the kitchen".

    Kids should be taught about climate change. Its a fact that the earth is warming up, and school is there to teach the kids the facts about the country/earth.

    As long as kids are taught basic physics and chemistry - then the whole climate change thing will become blindingly obvious to them

    And I agree with you, 100%.

    Well, it's in but it's certainly not convincing (although they think they've got "a pretty good idea").

    While AGW may indeed be the accepted hypothesis, the disciples could do with some more credible evidence to bolster their religion.

    Which evidence for AGW do you find not "credible" Uncle?



    Didn't you tell us in another thread:
    Tell us - did you find Plimer's book "credible"? How about the bit where he says "Over the past 250 years, humans have added just one part of CO2 in 10,000 to the atmosphere. One volcanic cough can do this in a day."
    Is this what you call "credible"?

    Nobody is saying that kids shouldn't be taught about climate change.

    Not too many people deny climate change.

    The problem is the "A" in AGW.

    Hey Uncle

    That is the crux of the arguement, if the Earth was so finely tuned that man's contribution could cause all this catastrophies we would have perished long ago.

    Now that China, India and even Russia an all those other countries that are in the black books with the romans now that they are going through the industrial revolution now is the time to present AGW ETS and carbon taxes.

    What hipocrites why dont they pay up for all the damage they have caused to the Earth?

    Not to mention all the atomic and nuclear testing even right here in our own back yard.

    How many atomic and nuclear tests were done in the NT, no wonder the sun stings on your skin and we have the highest rate of skin cancer in the world its because they bloody well blew a hole in our ozone layer.

    Climate change has been on the Earth from day zip and will be with us all until the Earth ceases to exist.

    To suggest that global warming is because of AGW is malarkey at best, we may have some small role but there is many more times natural CO2 being kicked up into our atmosphere than we could ever hope to produce at our current rate.

    Lets face it the carbon tax is the first world tax for the new world order and Julia Gillard has sold us into financial slavery.

    Instead of fixing the problem right here at home we have been tied to some ponsy scheme that will suck billions of tax payer dollars to overseas institutions.

    Kids shouldn't be taught by mining company employees that publish books with major errors like:
    Over the past 250 years, humans have added just one part of CO2 in 10,000 to the atmosphere. One volcanic cough can do this in a day.

    Why Uncle?
    Which evidence for AGW do you find not "credible" Uncle?

    Why do you always run away when asked that question?

    Why did you find Plimer's error-riddled book "credible" - yet you deny all of the actual evidence in the scientific literature?

    Isn't it time to stop the denial Uncle?

    Because science isn't up to children to decide, but actual scientists with years, even decades, of experience.

    When people say, "Let the kids make up their own minds," it's because they're on the side that's wrong!

    Oh but it IS ok by you that they get taught ALARMIST BS like that from Al gore...yeah there was a lot of truth in his movie wasnt there????
    from here...http://scienceandpublicpolicy.org/monckton/goreerrors.html


    Or how about your high priest tim flannery his book contained
    from here..http://www.irenicpublications.com.au/html/excerptsWMR.html

    your "warmist cult" is falling apart bugs. The latest effort in durban was a complete and spectacular failure and once the libs win power in the next election a few wrongs your "cult" have inflected upon us all in aust can be fixed.

    I doubt that any schools would be using a movie in place of physics and chemistry texts

    You seem to be making things up.


    Your link doesn't actually show any of these claimed errors in Flannery's book.

    What are they?
    i didn't hear of anything from the Durban conference claiming that AGW was not occurring.

    You seem to be making things up again

    The Liberals have a policy to use your tax money to achieve exactly the same emission reduction targets as the government.

    Or are you saying Tony is lying to us?

    But you now seem to be telling us that Tony is lying too is he?

    He said this year:
    "I think that climate change is real. I think that mankind makes a contribution and I think that we should put in place reasonable policies to deal with credible threats."

    and he proposes to use a Great Big Tax to pay polluters to achieve exactly the same reduction targets as the Government.

    Is he lying?

    I haven't said anything about that movie. I haven't seen it.

    But I am pretty sure it has not replaced physics and chemistry texts in our schools as you seem to be implying.

    BTW: what are all of these errors in Flannery's book?
    Your link doesn't detail any.
    Would you like to fill us in?

    Bugs how about you read up on it..
    Try starting with "Weather Makers Re-examined" by D Weston Allen.
    In the book tim "i own a beach house" flannery is shown to be nothing more than a liar and a joke.

    So, you post that his book is "full of errors" - but you cannot give us a single example.

    Good work champ.

    If you have READ about these errors - why can't you tell us what they are?

    I have no desire to waste time on some self-published tripe by a nutjob - especially when the link you did give us could not even point to a single example of an error in Flannery's book.

    I have not even read Flannery's "Weathermakers" - though I have read other books by Flannery. I was curious to see what these "errors" were.

    But you can't show us. You just made a stupid claim that you cannot support with evidence.

    Good work champ.
