   SWIVEL EYED LUNATIC SEEKS AUSTRALIAN COAL REVIVAL

               IS HE CHANNELING LORD MONCKTON OR TUCKER CARLSON ?

 

Australia has ‘been at net zero for a long time’: Ian Plimer

Geologist Ian Plimer argues Australia is already at net zero because the nation’s wealth of vegetation sequesters more carbon dioxide than the output of the population. 

“We’ve been at net zero for a long time because we’re a very, very big country with very few people, we’ve got a huge amount of grasslands and forests,” he told Sky News Australia.

“Those grasslands and forests suck up 940 million tonnes per annum, so we’re already there, and then when you put the continental shelf of Australia around it, and that’s only 2.5 million square kilometres, we actually sequester five times as much carbon dioxide as we emit.”

AND HE  HAS FRIENDS IN HIGH PLACES : 

Tasmanian Catholic Archbishop Julian Porteous

Tasmania's Archbishop has been accused of promoting the views of a climate change denier at the same time the global church is marking the seventh anniversary of Pope Francis' encyclical Laudato Si: On care for our common home.
Let's not pollute minds with carbon fears
An opinion piece written by Dr Plimer... in The Australian in 2019… was criticised by climate scientists for being false.
Ten climate scientists reviewed the article for Climate Feedback… 
'As was the case with three other op-eds written by Plimer that we evaluated previously, reviewers unanimously rated the scientific credibility of this article 'very low' … 
the scientists identify a large number of inaccurate or incorrect statements about the way Earth's climate system works, how climate has changed during Earth's history, and what we know about the impacts of continued climate change."

The article was also found to have breached standards by the Australian Press Council.
