Interesting. I note that well over half, likely three quarters, of the funding for the Australian greeny industry comes from the mining industry. I don't see much support from the greenys for mining..


Continuing... I mighta found this skeptic RickNRoll mentioned. Or maybe not...

"...No skeptic I’ve met said that “… carbon dioxide from burning of fossil fuels will prove to be the greatest pollutant of human history. It is likely to have severe and detrimental effects on global climate.” (Richard Muller, 2003). So perhaps he became a skeptic later? Not so much. Richard Muller, 2008: “There is a consensus that global warming is real. …it’s going to get much, much worse.”

The defining mark of a skeptic is that they never believe simply because there is a “consensus”..."


Muller-the-pretend-skeptic makes three claims. He?s half right on one. « JoNova

Nice little earner Muller and Muller have going here: http://mullerandassociates.com/our-team/


Using the BEST project to back up the BOM claims is looking a bit tenuous eh..
