AUSTRALIAN ALPS DEFY GLOBAL WARMING?

From the Sydney DAILY TELEGRAPH's "Skiwatch" segment by Arthur Stanley -- of 29 June, 2004

"With a 1m snow base before the end of June and great piles of snow outside alpine lodges, questions are being asked about the scientific models predicting gloom and doom for the Australian ski industry.

Since the first CSIRO warnings about the effects of global warming on the snow line- with a worst case scenario pointing to a snow drought in 2020 - we've had one of the greatest seasons on record (2000), excellent seasons in 2002-03 and one of the biggest Junes in history to kick off 2004.

Australia will always have good and bad seasons but with advances in cloud seeding and snowmaking, including on-mountain snow factories, the Australia alpine industry - literally buried in snow as it is at present- is justifiably arguing it will stay fit and healthy for many years to come.

More snow is on the way this week."

None of this will dissuade Greenies of course. When Ice Ages are blamed on global warming they are for all intents and purposes defending an unfalsifiable hypothesis. So any kind of climatic change can be taken as supporting evidence. As change is only constant in nature they will thus never run out of ammunition.

*****************************************

Many people would like to be kind to others so Leftists exploit that with their nonsense about equality. Most people want a clean, green environment so Greenies exploit that by inventing all sorts of far-fetched threats to the environment. But for both, the real motive is to promote themselves as wiser and better than everyone else, truth regardless.
