Climate Red - News and Views on Climate Change Issues.

who thinks they should just say nothing?

February 27th 2008 02:38
This post may be a bit political for me, but lately I can't help but cringe every time the Opposition opens its mouth, especially on Climate Change.

Who knows, maybe they are just the victims of misquotes and bad editing, surely they can't be as stupid as they are looking.....surely....

Nick Minchin s the latest to put his foot in it re Climate Change.

See below. These guys should quit while they are behind and SAY NOTHING

Climate change claims exaggerated: Minchin

A KEY federal opposition frontbencher has voiced his scepticism about climate change.

Opposition defence spokesman, and leader of the opposition in the Senate Nick Minchin said there were still doubts on the science used to back up claims about climate change.

"I do think that the claims being made in relation to climate change generally are often very exaggerated," he told ABC Television.

"And even Ross Garnaut in his report makes it clear that there are many, many scientists who doubt the voracity of the IPCC's (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) findings, and he called for greater debate about the scientific evidence."

Prof Garnaut's interim report to the federal government suggests cutting carbon emissions by up to 90 per cent by 2050.

Senator Minchin said Australia should only act on carbon emissions in consort with its major trading partners.

Now that these buffoons are in opposition, we can see just how competant they really were....

thank heavens for small mercies, that they now feel free to espouse their idiotic and ill-conceived ideas, insights and plans!

And may these truths keep them in opposition for a long time to come!

cheers

What a relief, nil, but I notice fog has a lot to say.
