the IPCC might not be perfect, just through their high profile work they are always going to get criticism, but the fact remains, he scientific community still generally rates them as the most knowledgeable organization on the issue of global warming, they are hardly a shoddy operation, they have also won a Nobel peace prize for their work Quote:
using that argument, nothing costs the government a cent, because they pay for everything through taxes. in the coming years they will pay out more $$$ than they get directly through "carbon taxes" etc it costs them through pressures that the issue puts on the economy, which was Howard's 2nd big argument for not signing the Kyoto agreement. anyway like i said, im not trying to start an argument about the issue, its been done to death, i was just merely correcting 2 comments the 1st being "governments around the world are pushing this crap down our throats and scientists and geologists are saying the opposite." as i said every national scienific acadamy from the industrialised world has supported the theory of human caused global warming And the 2nd being the fact that the average temperature on earth in the Jurassic period was 50 degrees.
