Well Done Conservatives

I dont understand the post above but Aloy I will answer your questions but you have given me quite a job.

I believe carbon pricing is the very best way of tackling climate change. I will elaborate.

When the Gillard Gov introduced a carbon price (mostly under our party the Greens influence) it was the protest day of my life.

For once Australia was almost leading the world although I admit a few others came in before.

Today over 95% of climate scientists see a strong association with climate change and human influence. Yes I know this is high but I stand by it. 

I better declare I am NOT an expert however I have read plenty, attended conferences and all I can say is that the scientists in my opinion put up much more intellectually impressive arguments than the alternative..

I won't give along lecture Aloy because you are a smart guy and theres plenty to read.

 

Human activities contribute to climate change by causing changes in Earth’s atmosphere in the amounts of greenhouse gas- es, aerosols (small particles), and cloudiness. The largest known contribution comes from the burning of fossil fuels, which releases carbon dioxide gas to the atmosphere. Greenhouse gases and aero- sols affect climate by altering incoming solar radiation and out- going infrared (thermal) radiation that are part of Earth’s energy balance. Changing the atmospheric abundance or properties of these gases and particles can lead to a warming or cooling of the climate system. Since the start of the industrial era (about 1750), the overall effect of human activities on climate has been a warm- ing influence. The human impact on climate during this era greatly exceeds that due to known changes in natural processes, such as solar changes and volcanic eruptions.
