Climate Australia

Hard on for climate change arguments in SA and Vic and WA weve had our coolest and wettest summer some say ever others say for last 30 years but stats are still coming in.

Wereas NSW and QLD have hottest ever by a fair margin no dispute.

But headline always is Australia heating up truth is 1/3 or Australia heating up a hard one.

PS Darwin and northern WA wettest monsoon season may prove to be wettest ever when it finishes usually mid march and Darwin were temp is always high of 32 and low of 24 hardly ever changes they had coldest feb night a while back think it was 16 or something

Inexact science

Exactly malle, cherry picked data proclaimed as facts

Climate change science is all about long term trends all across the globe. Not just one country, one region, one year.

Weather will still be variable.

It is best to leave the analysis to those specialists in the science of climate and stick to what you know which is farming in your small part of the world.

Or do you do your own dentistry or surgery too?

[Robertbarlage]

since your just the cut and paste "master" what else do you do chuck?

[malleefarmer]

not getting into climate change argument pointless and WOMBAT as us aussies call it.

but again today places in west aust coldest feb on record places in north west nsw hottest whos right whos wrong that the question rather than babbl about climate change

I have been involved in dentistry - tooth extraction.
Surgery - well not bad with a cutting torch and a welder
And as far as climate - I believe in long term cycles like this

I agree it is kind of pointless to discuss the data and science of climate change unless you are a climate change scientist.

After more than 50 years of paying attention to the weather on our farm I can clearly see that the seasons are generally warmer, wetter and the growing season is longer. There have been more and more significant record setting weather events in the the most recent decades.

Glaciers in the Rockies are retreating, the summer arctic ice is less and cruise ships are sailing the northwest passage. These are very obvious indicators of a warming planet which cannot be denied.

In my small part of the world it is pretty clear that global warming/ climate change is real.

[furrowtickler]

Lol , the climate is constantly changing - can't argue that 👍

[blackpowder]

OK you got me. Explain WOMBAT

The chart you pasted clearly shows the prehistoric relationship between carbon dioxide and temperature. But the chart stops at 300 ppm and CO2 is already at over 400. Several of the most recent years have been globally the warmest on record since the industrial revolution. Thanks for helping to prove my point!
