My ancestors spoke of serious climate change 200 years ago, snow in winter, searing hot droughts in summer and various seasonal changes – our PM tells us it has never happened before industrialisation.
The Jurassic period was much hotter than today, we even had forests in the centre of Australia and the Sahara Desert, with ice ages and changes to the processional angle of the earth – all long before industrialisation. Core samples of ancient ice and stalactites show CO2 at far higher levels than now, they show CO2 changes occurred 5-800 years after temperature changes when the oceans released and then absorbed CO2 with temperature changes. CO2 is not a causative factor in climate change it is the result of it.
Historical data makes a lie out of the story being told by the PM that climate change is the result of industrialisation and CO2 is the causative factor – let her and her ilk tell us what caused climate change before industrialisation? What childish nonsense to say climate change is a new event! It happens every day, every season, yearly, over centuries and millennia.
