Tim Blair writes in his column, Monday, October 27, 2014 about yet another climate prediction by a government scientist that seems sure to fail. You can add it to the list of failed predictions, such as Al Gore’s Arctic ice cap disappearing trick that never happened.
Doomsday draws near:
The planet has just five years to avoid disastrous global warming, says the Federal Government’s chief scientist.
Prof Penny Sackett yesterday urged all Australians to reduce their carbon footprint.
Sackett – now the former chief scientist – issued her five-year warning four years, 10 months and 24 days ago. Meanwhile, previous claims that global warming would cause hotter European winters may now be disregarded, because global warming has decided to make things colder instead:
The risk of severe winters in Europe and northern Asia has been doubled by global warming, according to new research.
The science is unsettled, as usual.

The end is near, has nothing to do with climate change though….you will know the season.
Alright some vengeful God stuff. I thought CAGW was our punishment for daring to be comfortable.
The cast of Game of Thrones approve of your message…and so do I!
Well good that it’s over and we can now be certain of warming.
It’s at the same time too bad that here in Germany warming manifests as cooling (as proven by climate scientists global warming models), and I still have to have winter tires.
The deeply worrying part is Professor Sackett was one of seven women chosen by the Office of the Status of Women to act as an ambassador to promote science to secondary school students.
She is also “a vocal champion of evidenced-based decision making” and is currently an Adjunct Professor at the ANU with her own consultancy enterprise providing “strategic foresight”.
Mmmmn, what was that phrase that Tony Curtis quoted in the beginning of The Great Imposter?
Dr Suzuki, Harrowsmith Magazine, March/April 1990 edition,
“If we don’t do something in 10 years, the very support systems for civilation will dissapear”
So here we are 24 and a half years later Dr Suzuki, seas ain’t risin’ either good thing y’all didn’t sell off all your waterfront property.
Now for the long range forecast.
There’s a broad front of CO2 related catastrophe failures about to sweep down from the Arctic, resulting in a pronounced wane fail of policy across North America and Europe. Like the ones recently experienced in Canada, Russia, China and elsewhere. At the same time we’re expecting an increase in the political temperature in the USA and Europe and an increased brief incidence of climate policy related snow jobs. Rotten tomatoes may well become prevalent as ‘experts’ find themselves ever more publicly pilloried, and roads could become slippery as panicking politicians throw ‘climate scientists’ and activists under buses. Winter tyres are recommended.
A flood of long term sceptical opinion is expected to swamp the mainstream, resulting in a major subsidence of climate related funding. Small grant warnings are to be expected in warming related academia.
Only 36 more days and Australia is ahead on time + another hour lost on daylight savings! Not much time to prepare for the Apocalypse. Better build those retaining walls to keep the rising seas at bay. They will be lapping at my door in days, despite being 60 metres above sea level. Better have those emergency food supplies ready too and protection from the searing temperatures. Now where is that really strong umbrella-the sky is falling.
From the comment section of his blog … a Masterpiece!
Tim – A lament and a recommendation:
Only thirty-seven days to go
And that’s not to Christmas my friend
For a lady who’s in the know
Tells us last year’s was the end…
“Gather ye rosebuds while ye may”
If that is your inclination
But time is short and age can gainsay
So let’s all drown in whisky libation.

This unexpected “change” in the climate from a heat death spiral of 5 years ago to a cooling trend is firm and absolute confirmation of the theory of “Climate Change”.
“Sackett – now the former chief scientist ”
Someone sacked it?
What a silly world we live in. Don’t like the weather? Blame it on your neighbor’s truck and then run for cover. It’s a wonder watermelons ever walk out their front door out of fear a sunbeam, raindrop, snowflake, or blowing leaf would threaten to strike them down.
Call me a cynic (please!), but I believe even watermelons don’t believe this CO2 crap…it’s simply the tax-scam du jour.
They believe it. I asked some. They simply accept anything that is in the science section of their favorite newspaper.
When you ask them what the most important greenhouse gas is though, they smell a trick question, think hard… and think…and think.
Because their favorite newspaper never told them.
It is the pride of the intellectual to believe everything that a science journalist says, and never question it.
Trouble is… the average science journalist knows nothing about science. They would not embarrass themselves writing the global warming rubbish if they did. Most of them end up writing about science because they are too geeky to understand sport and too left wing even to write anything slightly impartial about politics. They went to university and studied Journalism, NOT science.
Every single person reading this must do their part and send a copy/link to at least one other person.
I have decided that it is time to take those alarmist scientists seriously and finally bow to their scientific superiority and accept that they are right. We should take heed of their predictions from over a decade ago that we were months away from a tipping point, we passed it and it is too late to prevent the massive increase in global warming that must be presenting itself in stealth mode, by sneakily keeping global temperatures flat. It’s to late to stop it, so I am not going to bother trying.
No, you can’t convince me, after all, these are the best scientists in the world and they are all agreed and the science is settled. To suggest that I try to change things is to suggest that those eminent world class scientists are….. wrong!!! That would never do. It is now far to late to make any difference, so I am going to buy an SUV, turn my heating up full and enjoy the coming winter as it will probably be my last before I have to escape to a tropical Arctic island somewhere…. After all the scientists are not wrong…. are they? Or….. if they are, why should we listen to them at all?
