Reference the book out this year, A Climate for Growth, Planning South East Queensland, in the "Problems that need resolution" section there is mention of the redevelopment for housing of Archerfield airport. There is also this comment in the climate chapter "We are walking backwards into the storm of climate change"..

Hmmm, instead of society moving forward, methinks we are 'walking backwards' into a green disaster....

“ There is a fair amount of reasonable science behind the global warming debate, but in general, and give or take a religion or two, never has quite so much rubbish been espoused by so many on so little evidence. One wonders why. We live in an age where common sense and tolerance are supposed to be the basis of our system of education, but where there is very little of common sense and absolutely nothing of tolerance in the public argument about the climate change business. Perhaps it is that people simply have a basic need for fairy tales and doomsday stories. “
