Because I can afford it!

Got a link? Have you seen the pollution problem in China and India?

Do you? Does our government?

Hell no.

How many cars do you own?

Muscle cars are a part of American culture.


Good Lord, you're gay.



I should have known.....

Could you please refer me to any papers by these scientists that have been published in peer reviewed academic journals, arguing the case that anthropogenic climate change isn't occurring.

Any one will be fine. After all, you say that there are "plenty" of these scientists.

I'll be waiting.....

So is torturing prisoners and Paris Hilton.
Doesn't make it right.

??????? Uh, focus: Chinese CO2 emmissions, the main greenhouse gas from combustion of fossile fuels, now exceeds that of the US. Reread that. Absorb it. Make it become part of you.

You quote the large emmissions of the US as if it had some significance to you, but you don't make clear what it is, and I am unable to read your mind.

And there are almost 5 times as many Chinese in the world than there are Americans. Americans (and Australians and Canadians) are per capita the largest emitters of CO2. 5 times more than Chinese people. the Chinese didn't cause the problem - the industrialised West did.

so, uh, focus: Per capita, Western CO2 emmissions, the main greenhouse gas from combustion of fossil fuels, exceed that of the Chinese five-fold. Reread that. Absorb it. Make it become part of you.
I'm sorry. It concerns a thing called anthropogenic climate change. You must have heard of it. All the cool kids are talking about it.

Bob Carter is also not a climatologist. He is a geologist.

From the Sydney Morning Herald:
"Professor Carter, whose background is in marine geology, appears to have little, if any, standing in the Australian climate science community."

Furthermore, he is a member of the Institute of Public Affairs - a right-wing think-tank with close like to the Liberal Party (the party of former PM John Howard, GWB's little buddy and partner in invading Iraq and refusing to ratify Kyoto). "Its key policy positions include advocacy for privatisation, deregulation, reduction in the power of unions and denial of most significant environmental problems, including climate change".
http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php...Public_Affairs

As a scientist, he has never published any peer reviewed paper in any scientific journal which argues that anthropogenic global warming is not occuring. He simply writes blogs and think-pieces for he media.

To claim he is an 'expert' is ridiculous.

Sorry to disappoint you

Unfortunately, you are wrong. But I'm getting used to that about you.



Beats the hell out of sleeping with a kangaroo.



When you see your best friend, do you call him 'mate'?

That's gay.

Sounds like they're going to need a snow shovel to get to them!

Snow shovels damage natural snow. Can't use those either.
