A million dollars in research funding that justifies ten billion dollars in carbon taxes. Id say thats a pretty good ROI
if it holds up.
Yowser, that’s going to leave a mark down under.
Another hockey stick gets broken.
Australia has a history of European settlement reaching back to about the time of the American Revolution.
Australasia has hottest 60 years in a millennium, scientists find ( tree ring data lies)

I am constantly amazed by the deference given computer models.
A certain amount of data is gathered. Scientists compile it and estimate (guess) how it relates to and affects other data. Then they estimate (guess) how it should be adjusted.
Then all these estimates (guesses) are fed into computers and manipulated with mathematical and scientific rigor.
The end result: well-ordered guesses with precise predictions based on absolutely nothing.
A computer model can only be expected to produce good results if we have all the data and if we understand thoroughly how the different types of data interact.
Thus we can design bridges, and airplanes and buildings with great precision. Climate, for which we don’t know all the question, much less all the answers, not so much.
This leaves out the human factor. With the best of scientific ethics, which doesn’t always exist, those who do these studies know that a finding of “the sky is falling” will result in acclaim, fame, more grants, and access to hot young environmentalist coeds. A finding that not much is happening will result in the opposite.
Not surprisingly, scientists tend to find what they’re looking for.
The farce continues of “Hide the decline” in the proxy records.
