recent Neighbourly poll

Graham & Christine from Kennedys Bush

I read with interest the comments on the recent Neighbourly poll regarding what we should be doing about climate, especially in the wake of the last few years' worth of floods in New Zealand.
I invite all readers to source their information from reputable sources such as our own NIWA: niwa.co.nz... , the USA's NASA: climate.nasa.gov... ,
the Australian CSIRO: www.csiro.au... , or the equivalent national science academy from any developed nation.
That would put an end to unsupported, inaccurate or irrelevant amateur opinions such as "the climate has always changed" or "volcanoes emit more GHGs than people do."
We should be very wary of confusing evidence with opinion or wishful thinking.
I feel very strongly about this, as in a decade or two we will have to justify our action (or lack of it) to our children. www.economist.com...
