‘Fires show climate change is real: Stern
NICHOLAS Stern has cited recent bushfires in Australia along with current flooding in the United Kingdom to argue climate change is already causing devastating destruction.
The British economist, who authored the influential 2006 study on global warming, says record rainfall and storm surges causing flooding across the UK “are a clear sign we are already experiencing the impacts of climate change”…’
It’s hard to know where to begin attacking this horseshit, uncritically regurgitated by News. com as “news”. So I won’t bother.
Oh, and you’ll notice it’s not “global warming” any more…
Leftists/”progressives”/socialists are not welcome here. Pay for your own soapbox.

It’s like the commies in America changing their cover name from “progressive” in the 1900s to “liberal” the the 1930s back to to “progressive” in the 1990s. The same old wine in different bottles.
Exactly.
Correction. The same old *whine* in different bottles.
Sadly it seems the squeaky wheel gets the grease.
It’s hard not to bang your head against the television set.
“Worst flooding in sixty years”, precedes “climate change yada yada yada.”
Uhhh, so what happened sixty years ago?
The climate is changing. Colder and colder. The new ice age has begun.
Doesn’t look to ice-agey from where I am, Findalis. Vast plains of brown dust and starving animals, 40c heat….
It’s all just climate.
12 degrees here with over 6′ of snow on the ground. The Great Lakes are frozen over. Looks like an Ice Age here.

How colder how dustier and dryer.
The place where you live won’t be alot cooler during an ice-age.
In Summer.
Hot, cold, dry, wet, whatever, we desperately need some sort of tax. That’s always the long and the short of it.
Always.
Only one way to deal with liberal scum. Only one.
always find this amusing..the UK is such an irrelevant non-existent industrial economy….
so lets see..tax all the UK citizens and do what?..close down /offset the non existent industrial “polluters”..then import all of their food and goods [which they are basically doing anyway] and get it from where? oooh.. East Europe ….Asia .
then what ? where is the money coming from if you are living on imports?
as we say here…it only “appears” to work until the other guy’s money runs out.
a classic example : UK regulation of the poultry industry..regulations and regulations later; the industry is skewed to wall with crippling costs, but can’t compensate costs or barely break even because they are undermined by non-regulated cheap imports from Asia [chicken] and Eastern Europe[eggs]…
we see this suicidal utopianism daily..wheel out yet another “never had a real job” academic who has the answer to “save” the world ..all I see is another “get your name in neon” wannabe who is out of options in covering up the fact he is worthless in a real economy.
Same with our farmers. Saddle them with a million regulations and then let the market flood with cheap imports from Aisa where no such regulations exist.
If people realised how their food was produced then you wouldn’t be able to GIVE the imported crap away.
Thankyou Mister Greenfield.
We get to hear about this from a foreign source rather than our local media. WTF?

Overcrowd small spaces with houses and people. Build on flood plains. Push “development” right to the sea’s edge. Construct “life style” grand designs in tinderbox bush.
Then when Nature wiggles its dick and everything all goes sideways…blame ‘global warming’.

Well, the global warm/cold stuff perhaps led to Harvard’s demise. All that twisting around in circles attempting to explain millions of years of global weather including eskimos to injuns. Hell, it doesn’t even make for an interesting topic. We had ice on the ground a day ago and now it is quite sunny and pleasant. I think those quick changes may have twisted Harvard up. Too bad.
JAKARTA, Indonesia – U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry on Sunday called climate change perhaps the world’s “most fearsome” destructive weapon and mocked those who deny its existence or question its causes, comparing them to people who insist the Earth is flat.
Before the climate change speech, Kerry toured Jakarta’s Istiqlal Mosque, one of the largest in the world, to pay his respects to Indonesia’s Muslim majority population.
