This is expert has the facts.
Should we believe the experts or the politicians regarding climate change?
This is expert has the facts.
I feel, with regards to CO2, that he is being a bit disingenuous. Saying that fossil
fuels come from sunshine isn't the point - it's the release of CO2 from these which
is the Problem. And the Earth IS getting hotter, very very fast.
Yes, we need nuclear. And yes, wind power chops up birds so people are draining
wetlands and forest around them to reduce the number of birds. So, it's complicated.
The experts.
BTW, the word "expert" doesn't mean "some bloke with a science qualification from the 1970s that happens to say what I want to hear".
How do you know?
I love this "certain industries"
it has the strong whiff of Marxist envy about it.
"Certain industries" wanted to go nuclear power in the 1960's and 1970's.
Certain other industries sought to stop them.
Now we can't have nuclear, coal, oil, gas or hydro.
And the truth about wind power environmental damage is slowly coming out.
So that leaves us running our civilization on roof-top solar cells - as long as
the sun shines.
Of course you are a climate change denier.
Why am I not surprised.
The scientific community as a whole stands behind the science of climate change.
"But hey look, here is this one guy who probably gets money from some Oil/Gas Company who says different!"
I love when people just make stuff up and pretend it has anything to do with what you said. It has the strong whiff of the narrative fallacy about it.
The point was that paid advocates for a cause shouldn't be presented as neutral experts
What makes you so convinced that he does not have the facts?
Why didn't you answer my question?
I don't know how many facts he's in possession of but he's a "consultant" and campaigner with some clear vested interests - not an expert. Experts are people who actually study these things. This guy doesn't appear to have done any real science since his PhD.
Unfortunately Patrick Moore cannot be believed as he is funded by Asia Pulp & Paper, which has been involved in widespread (and illegal) rainforest clearing.In this video, he says that at the peak of the last glaciations carbon dioxide dropped to level of 180 ppm. This being only 30ppm above the death of plants.
The optimum level of carbon dioxide for plant growth is 1000ppm. It is only 400ppm at present.
He says that carbon dioxide is the food of life.
It is typical tactic of the Left to smear someone that disagrees with them rather than come up with a convincing counter argument.
In Australia we have plenty of "paid advocates" standing in the way of nuclear power, bridges, airports,
gas fields, oil drilling, timber, live sheep export, commercial fishing, shooting, dams, hydro-power, coal,
heavy industry, uranium mining, any mining, freeways, tollways, tourism infrastructure and the like.
And many of these are tax-payer funded. The nerve.
He says that life cannot survive without carbon dioxide
I have watched some of his videos. This does not make me an expert but it does make me believe that Dr Moore is far more of an expert than your average politician is.
He says that life cannot survive without carbon dioxide
