Of course. Now that he funded his friend Modi the Fuhrer's campaign in India, he has to open this mine and ship that coal to India to recoup costs.
No problem if there is any risk of hurting the Barrier Reef ecosystem or contribute more to Global warming. Who cares about such things?

        As is shown in the graphs (in the link below) the global temperatures are rising.
        Oh yes the graph line does go down but if we actually take a real look (not cherry picking) at the graph the global temperatures are going up!!!
        However if one focuses on a 'short specific period of time', or even worse in a 'specific location' of the world too, the data is altered!
        https://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/world-of-change/DecadalTem…
        
        The fact is the world is very large, as the climate changes it is normal to see different things happening in different places and at different points of time!
        We need to look at the whole world and over a long period of time to see what is actually happening!
        
        Listening to the science, the data, the United Nations and global leaders is better than being a cherry picking bogan "who's just a drain on society", who only listens to the fossil fuel corporations, their lobbyist and their politicians who receive generous donations.

        The late 70s is what you call "But you won't see these ones advertised as much, as it doesn't suit your 'climate agenda'" seriously?
        
        You selectively cherry pick a specific "exclusive little location and time", the Antarctic ice that has data only from the late 70s, the ice increased in 2013-2014 and you call it "But you won't see these ones advertised as much, as it doesn't suit your 'climate agenda'" seriously?
        I post data that isn't restricted to a "specific location", covers a far "greater period of time" and you say "Data cannot
        Be judged on 100 years of “data” and be claimed as fact."
        But you posted data from the late 70s and isolated to a specific location and say "But you won't see these ones advertised as much, as it doesn't suit your 'climate agenda'"

        Well you'd like to know carbon and temperature levels.
        Hers a graph of 400,000 years of temperatures and carbon!
        Notice the link between carbon and temperature levels?
        
        Air bubbles in Antarctic ice are time capsules
        Ice at the South Pole contains air bubbles that are up to 800 000 years old.
        The air bubbles in Antarctic ice can be hundreds of thousands of years old.
        Snow traps air bubbles when it falls and is compressed to form ice. Scientists have drilled 3200 metres into the ice to sample air from ancient times. They’ve tested the air in the bubbles to see how much of each gas (eg oxygen, carbon dioxide, nitrogen) it contains. Carbon dioxide levels have gone up and down in cycles of about 100 000 years. The temperatures and carbon dioxide concentrations shown in the graph occurred at Vostok in Antarctica during the last 400 000 years. It seems that when carbon dioxide levels are high, the temperature goes up too.

        @Wystri Warrick: I'm still interested in how your climate scientists predict climate without understanding the trigger or timing of geomagnetic reversals. The last major ice age coincided with one.

        Some people actually work for a living!
        
        Earth's magnetic poles are constantly changing location relative to earth's geographic poles.
        To say that ”without understanding the trigger or timing of geomagnetic reversals” is false, they don't just suddenly reverse, there is no timing, it’s random and the magnetic poles are constantly moving all the time, even right now as we speak!
        In 2009 it was moving from the Canadian Arctic territorial claim towards Russia between 55 and 60 kilometres per year!
        the Laschamp event occurred 41,000 years ago during the last glacial period. That reversal lasted only about 440 years with the actual change of polarity lasting around 250 years.
        The last glacial period was the most recent glacial period within the Quaternary Ice Age, occurring in the Pleistocene epoch, which began about 110,000 years ago and ended about 15,000 years ago.
        ”without understanding the trigger or timing of geomagnetic reversals” where's the trigger? where's the timing? the last major ice age began about 70 thousand years before the Laschamp event!
        As you can clearly see the correlation between carbon and temperatures in the graph, in this link, you can also clearly see on the graph where the Laschamp event took place, temperatures continued on their downward trend!
        Look at the temperatures and carbon, as they go up and down, see the correlation, where's the rest of the Geomagnetic reversals?
        Geomagnetic reversals can't correlate, because they are random.
        Geomagnetic reversals don't increase global temperatures.
        Geomagnetic reversals have always been around and they do not explain the rapid change in global climate, the objective science says the rapid change in global climate is caused by the use of fossil fuels.
        
        Oh and they aren't my scientists, I don't own them, they are independent scientist and publish factual “objective scientific” data.
        Unlike the scientists who's funding is from the fossil fuel corporations and is supported by the likes of News Corp, Fox News and the politicians that receive generous donations from fossil fuel corporations.

        @Wystri Warrick: You struggle(I'm being kind) with plurals and don't know the difference between "whose" and "who's". I think someone who can understand the vast complexity of the Earth could deal with grammar a little more elegantly. It's abundantly clear you don't understand geologic time scale or geomagnetic reversals and simply attempted a wikiscramble. The position of the magnetic poles with respect to the sun is very important to solar wind absorption. You have admitted that climate scientists predict future climate and temperatures having ZERO idea about the future polarity of the Earth, the major mechanism that protects the Earth from Solar wind/radiation.

        Do you even know what geomagnetic reversal is?
        Since you are using geomagnetic reversal and geomagnetic movement interchangeably, you obviously do not know what geomagnetic reversal is, so I'll tell you, A geomagnetic reversal is a change in a planet's magnetic field such that the positions of magnetic north and magnetic south are interchanged

        @Wystri Warrick: Coping? I think you mean 'copying', intellect. You keep tripping over the very basics. Pick the toilet paper off your shoe before lecturing others. You keep fixating over historic carbon dioxide when the climate change debate is over man-made climate change. The atmosphere has contained 10 times the present level of carbon dioxide entirely unrelated to man. No system as complicated as the Earth has ever in the history of mankind been modelled accurately and it isn't about to magically start here. It's not science and never will be, hence the self conscious term 'scientific concensus' it is given.

        There is no trigger, they are random.
        Statistical properties of reversals
        Several studies have analyzed the statistical properties of reversals in the hope of learning something about their underlying mechanism. The discriminating power of statistical tests is limited by the small number of polarity intervals. Nevertheless, some general features are well established. In particular, the pattern of reversals is random. There is no correlation between the lengths of polarity intervals.[14] There is no preference for either normal or reversed polarity, and no statistical difference between the distributions of these polarities. This lack of bias is also a robust prediction of dynamo theory.[10]
        There is no rate of reversals, as they are statistically random. The randomness of the reversals is inconsistent with periodicity, but several authors have claimed to find periodicity.[15] However, these results are probably artifacts of an analysis using sliding windows to attempt to determine reversal rates.
        
        You don't even know what geomagnetic reversals are, you're confusing geomagnetic reversals with the magnetic north pole movements 🤣
        I reply to you:
        To say that ”without understanding the trigger or timing of geomagnetic reversals” is false, they don't just suddenly reverse, there is no timing, it’s random
        You then reply here quoting me saying “they don't just suddenly reverse” and post a quote from nature magazine that only backs up what I said here ”the magnetic poles are constantly moving all the time, even right now as we speak!”🤣. )
        You have ZERO idea what geomagnetic reversals ARE! 🤣
        A geomagnetic reversal is a change in a planet's magnetic field such that the positions of magnetic north and magnetic south are interchanged
        My dear, dear boy what have you been smoking? (I'm being kind!)
        
        Furthermore geomagnetic reversals are not causing increased carbon and temperatures.
        If you truly “believe” they are the cause of the climate change we are facing SHOW us the scientific evidence and the geomagnetic reversal, not your own unscientific thoughts and opinions!
        
        You keep fixating over historic carbon dioxide when the climate change debate is over man-made climate change.
        
        Wrong, I'm not fixating on historic, I’m “fixating” on the scientific evidence that shows the correlation between carbon and temperatures at present time and, and the past (”Historic”) levels of carbon and, and temperatures!
        Can't you see the carbon line on the graph at present time, the temperatures and the correlation, we know you can see the ‘past carbon'!
        It's you who is fixating on the historic carbon and not seeing the rest of the whole graph!
        
        The atmosphere has contained 10 times the present level of carbon dioxide entirely unrelated to man.
        
        You got scientific evidence to back that up?
        I've showed you the most comprehensive scientific graph of carbon over the past 800 thousand years, that's based on real hard scientific data!
        
        It's not science and never will be, hence the self conscious term 'scientific concensus' it is given.
        
        Science achieves a consensus when scientists stop arguing. When a question is first asked – like ‘what would happen if we put a load more CO2 in the atmosphere?’ – there may be many hypotheses about cause and effect. Over a period of time, each idea is tested and retested – the processes of the scientific method – because all scientists know that reputation and kudos go to those who find the right answer (and everyone else becomes an irrelevant footnote in the history of science). Nearly all hypotheses will fall by the wayside during this testing period, because only one is going to answer the question properly, without leaving all kinds of odd dangling bits that don’t quite add up. Bad theories are usually rather untidy!
        
        If you really still believe your beliefs to be correct, you should take your pretentious hubristic self and contact all the global leaders, global scientific community, the United Nations, David Attenborough and TELL THEM!

What I have denied is the accuracy of the models and that you can generate precise and accurate figures from a complex system such as the Earth with many and varied sources of heat. Never in the history of mankind have models as complex as the Earth been modelled accurately, but you believe suddenly they are correct.
        
        If you had studied science, you'd probably remember the terms prevalent theory and dominant theory. Climate science skipped that stage because people don't change their behaviour due to just a theory so it was sexed up to consensus science at just the early theory stage. Darwin was writing about evolution 150 years ago and even that is termed a theory but you think climate change just waltzes straight into established science status in a few years? Climate change advocates think they can prostitute science simply because they think the goal is urgent or noble. They have tried to rush and bluff the scientific process to change people's behaviour. Who the heck averages predictions and calls that a science? When have scientific predictions ever been so far from reality? The models were clearly wrong. The origin and age of water on the Earth is not concrete established science itself, so pretending to understand CO2 levels throughout the history of Earth is equally not a science. Water. Dunno. Geomagnetism. Dunno. CO2. Nailed it. Sure. True sciences don't have this problem as they aren't hurriedly introduced to the public during their infancy, teething problems present, by shonks like Tim Flannery saying there won't be Artic ice in the now distant past.

        Gases in the atmosphere, such as carbon dioxide, trap heat just like the glass roof of a greenhouse. These heat-trapping gases are called greenhouse gases.
        During the day, the Sun shines through the atmosphere. Earth's surface warms up in the sunlight. At night, Earth's surface cools, releasing heat back into the air. But some of the heat is trapped by the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. That's what keeps our Earth a warm and cozy 58 degrees Fahrenheit (14 degrees Celsius), on average.
        Human activities are changing Earth's natural greenhouse effect. Burning fossil fuels like coal and oil puts more carbon dioxide into our atmosphere.
        NASA has observed increases in the amount of carbon dioxide and some other greenhouse gases in our atmosphere. Too much of these greenhouse gases can cause Earth's atmosphere to trap more and more heat. This causes Earth to warm up.

        What is about this that makes you try so hard?
        Do you really believe that you are the first to ask the question does the earths magnetic field affect climate change?
        Here’s your answer on the magnetic field effect on climate change, Possible relationship to climate
        There is evidence that geomagnetic excursions may be associated with episodes of rapid short-term climatic cooling during periods of continental glaciation (ice ages).[5]
        Recent analysis of the geomagnetic reversal frequency, oxygen isotope record, and tectonic plate subduction rate, which are indicators of the changes in the heat flux at the core mantle boundary, climate and plate tectonic activity, shows that all these changes indicate similar rhythms on million years’ timescale in the Cenozoic Era occurring with the common fundamental periodicity of ∼13 Myr during most of the time.[6]
        No global warming, only “There is evidence that geomagnetic excursions may be associated with episodes of rapid short-term climatic cooling during periods of continental glaciation”
        
        You talk about objective science, yet you offer no scientific evidence that the earths magnetic field is the cause of the increase of global carbon, global temperatures. You just claim “we don’t know”. You dismiss the evidence from the global scientific community that points towards carbon being the cause of rising global temperatures, climate change.

        "they don't just suddenly reverse"
        
        Nature Magazine:
        
        "The most recent version of the model came out in 2015 and was supposed to last until 2020 — but the magnetic field is changing so rapidly that researchers have to fix the model now. “The error is increasing all the time,” says Arnaud Chulliat, a geomagnetist at the University of Colorado Boulder and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA’s) National Centers for Environmental Information."
        
        "By early 2018, the World Magnetic Model was in trouble. Researchers from NOAA and the British Geological Survey in Edinburgh had been doing their annual check of how well the model was capturing all the variations in Earth’s magnetic field. They realized that it was so inaccurate that it was about to exceed the acceptable limit for navigational errors."
        
        "In the meantime, scientists are working to understand why the magnetic field is changing so dramatically."
        
        My reply:
        
        Do you even know what geomagnetic reversal is?
        Since you are using geomagnetic reversal and geomagnetic movement interchangeably, you obviously do not know what geomagnetic reversal is, so I'll tell you, A geomagnetic reversal is a change in a planet's magnetic field such that the positions of magnetic north and magnetic south are interchanged(en.m.wikipedia.org)
        You obviously have ZERO idea of what you're talking about!
        
        Seriously? You just contradicted your earlier post. You quoted nature magazine:
        
        ”the magnetic field is changing so rapidly that researchers have to fix the model now.”
        
        Seriously what happened to your ”without understanding the trigger or timing of geomagnetic reversals”.
        So according to your nature magazine quote, the geomagnetic pole is now random, the models can't predict it? Also where did I say that models can predict geomagnetic pole movement?
        Your whole quote from nature magazine only confirms what i said.

        How do climate scientists predict Russia's oil and gas production and carbon output, given Putin/Gazprom and Russia will each benefit handsomely from rising global temperature? If they are so accurate, why haven't those scientists made trillions on oil and gas futures? Must be professional ethics! What are the scientifically reliable OPEC output forecasts all the way until 2100? How many climate scientists predicted Australia's climate policy for the next 3 years, as they must have known the election result in their crystal ball. Must be great being able to predict everything perfectly, or do they think all the mistakes will average themselves out. I am 83% confident of winning lotto next week. I averaged my usual numbers with a guy called lucky Phil to improve our prediction accuracy. I hope the 37.5 Powerball comes home!

        You don't understand geomagnetic reversals, you believed they are the magnetic north pole moving and I've shown you what they really are.
        I showed you that geomagnetic reversals aren't responsible for the climate change we are facing, in fact the evidence points towards “There is evidence that geomagnetic excursions may be associated with episodes of rapid short-term climatic cooling during periods of continental glaciation (ice ages”.

        I love that. If they didn't foresee something, it was unforeseeable. Do you know what you call projections differing from observations over the short and medium term? It's not science :). Oh look, it's too complicated.

        Depending on the kind of electrical appliance I'll try to fix it or have it repaired, I try make things last as long as possible.

        Hmm from the CSIRO too, looks interesting, I just wonder why you didn't include a link?
        I would have liked to read the full article, you know to get an understanding of it’s full context!
        
        Found it!:
        Climate change will continue in the decades ahead, superimposed on natural variability. Changes in the climate, particularly in weather and climate extremes, can have a very significant impact on our environment and wellbeing, including on ecosystems, agriculture and the built environment.
        Let's check out what key points the CSIRO makes!
        • Further increase in temperatures, with more extremely hot days and fewer extremely cool days.
        • Ongoing sea level rise.
        • Further warming and acidification of the oceans around Australia.
        • More frequent, extensive, intense and longer-lasting marine heatwaves, suggesting in turn more frequent and severe bleaching events on the Great Barrier Reef, and potentially the loss of many types of coral throughout the tropical reef systems of Australia and globally.
        • A decrease in cool-season rainfall across many regions of southern Australia, with more time spent in drought.
        • More intense heavy rainfall throughout Australia, particularly for short-duration extreme rainfall events.
        • An increase in the number of high fire weather danger days and a longer fire season for southern and eastern Australia.
        • Fewer tropical cyclones, but a greater proportion of high-intensity storms, with ongoing large variations from year to year.
        
        I'm curious, let's see what your CSIRO article says about climate models!
        It has now been almost 30 years since the first sets of climate model projections were published, providing the opportunity to compare those projections to observations of the actual climate. CSIRO (1992) produced projections of Australian temperature from 1990 to 2030 for Australia divided into three regions. Drawing the projections together as an Australian average, the linear trend in observed temperature has been tracking within this published range, and above ‘no change’. The fact that observations have been tracking within the envelope of projections builds confidence that climate models represent the key processes responsible for the warming trend and therefore these projections were a useful resource for future planning when they were released.
        
        Now we know the full context we can now fully understand your cherry picked quote!
        
        ”It should be noted that factors such as unforeseeable changes to the atmospheric composition and variability from influences such as specific El Niño and La Niña events mean that we can never make a forecast of the exact time series of Australian temperature, and that the projections will differ from observations over short to medium periods.”
        
        So due to unforeseeable abnormalities from influences such as geomagnetic reversal and ”atmospheric composition and variability from influences such as specific El Niño and La Niña events mean” climate models can be thrown off, as models are based on past data, past data can't predict future random unforeseeable abnormalities, armed with the past climate data and our scientific understanding of the earths climate (oh we also have a pretty good understanding of the universe too!) humanity is able to create quite accurate climate models/predictions!
        I think the CSIRO sums it up very well!
        Climate change will continue in the decades ahead, superimposed on natural variability. Changes in the climate, particularly in weather and climate extremes, can have a very significant impact on our environment and wellbeing, including on ecosystems, agriculture and the built environment.

        @futurePM sums it up perfectly here
        Group 1 -climate change deniers or coal lovers almost always cherry pick their "facts" and never bother to apply rational thought or solid research. I genuinely believe its because they are people of low intelligence and often work in jobs that aren't particularly intellectually taxing. They often lack empathy and this drives their short term self centered thinking. Worst thing is they're aren't able to recognise this about themselves so constantly engage with others who can resonate with their base level of logic, creating an eco chamber of false "facts", incorrect logic and pseudo scientific arguments. The net result in most circumstances is they see any push back against their narrative as a conspiracy or attack by people of lesser intelligence, easily dismissing them causing the echochamber to ring louder.

        Cherry picked CSIRO: "The projections are based on up to 40 global climate models that were driven by four greenhouse gas and aerosol emissions scenarios."
        
        40 different models. 40. With observations differing from projections in the short and medium term, and the model changing before the long term. How many would there be if it was accurate? Hint: not 40. Hey Barry, can you go and make another 60 climate models, the current one's working great! Do you what Archimedes didn't do after he said Eureka? Invent 40 other displacement models, that's what. Why doesn't Broom Bridge have 40 different etchings of quaternions? Because the first one was right. That's why.
        
        Maybe you should wrap your head around the fact that Russia, the largest country in the world, couldn't care less about possible climate change. They have -40C winter temperatures. Will they care about having -38.5C winters instead? They'll be too busy partying with the billions they make from the thawed permafrost oilfields. Get one of your 40 CSIRO climate models and have a look at the benefits global temperature rise to Russia and Canada. Have a look at Putin's smirk while you volunteer to be held to ransom.

        @Wystri Warrick: David Spratt, the research director for Breakthrough National Centre for Climate Restoration in Melbourne, and Ian Dunlop, chair of the Australian Greenhouse Office Experts Group on Emissions Trading, have just released their climate model that predicts by 2030 policy-makers will fail to act on evidence and prevent growing greenhouse gas emissions, and armageddon ensues.
        
        Now, with that as their projected model, are you going to accept that expert projection, or are you going to be the nay-saying skeptic and denier? Iff what they have produced is bona fide science and a reliable projection, with your documented history of just accepting science, you are duty bound to accept it. If it's not science, you've admitted climate models can be flawed, unscientific, ulterior motivated and wrong. Haha, I contend it's an alarmist, virtual, rhetorical, theatrical model designed to manipulate and motivate, but you don't have that option, because it's all hard, objective science, right. Observations will match projections. There can be no substantive policy action. You've painted yourself into a logical corner of artificial consensus. Are you going to accept their climate science, are you going to toe the 97% consensus line as future fact, accept their apocalyptic projection of policy inaction, or not?
        
        Fun fact: David Attenborough talks about reducing carbon emissions but is widely believed to be the most travelled person on planet Earth. It even says it's likely on his BBC bio and IMDB. For The Life of Birds documentary, he travelled 256,000 miles. He's a top 1% emitter!
