This is hardly the place, in my opinion, to be debating well-established science with people who have their heads in the sand.
I thought long and hard before approving the original post. But, as you can see, Sir H, there are plenty of Flatchatters who agree with your thoughts on global warming (myself included). I try not to censor comments to the Forum, preferring to leave it to other contributors to express alternative views. So far, the people who agree with you outnumber the single climate denier by 5 to 1.
This became “the place” for these discussions when Julie McLean said zero emissions targets were a challenge for strata schemes that ought to be addressed now. I would hope that one result of this particular debate being opened will give our readers the ammunition to deal with the denialists and backsliders on their committees.
The denialist chatter largely occurs in the echo chamber of their own forums. I think (or at least hope) by revisiting the facts, here, we empower and energize the science-based views so that strata owners and residents can shoot down the nay-sayer opinions when they inevitably intrude into real-world discussions about spending strata finances on emission reduction programs.
