A few well known Queensland sceptics of ‘anthropogenic global warming’ attended the ‘No Carbon Tax’ rally today in Brisbane… and there is also a frequent contributor to this blog in this photograph.
There were perhaps 400 at the rally.
I suggested government needed to look around for better advice on climate change reminding the crowd that Tim Flannery once said that our dams would never fill again.
Of course when the drought broke the dams filled to overflowing with Wivenhoe flooding Brisbane. At that time government should have reassessed the quality of the advice it was getting on climate change, but instead and incredibly the Prime Minister Julia Gillard promoted Professor Flannery… at a time when he should really have been sacked.
