Federal Coalition LNP is in denial of human induced climatechange inc betrayal by The_Nationals of their rural communities/farming constituents wth failure to develop long term strategy fr mitigation/adaptation/resilience to sustain agriculture farmingforever NationalFarmers

Farmers havent been environmentally friendly over the years, they need to change their mindset & the way they farm . Mass population only leads to mass factory farming etc , so where is the population factor in all this?

So a guy with a huge solar farm is criticising coal. No vested interest there...

deniseshrivell You can't keep voting for the Nats, knowing they are working against you

Well if the farmers stopped voting for the Nationals (and therefore the Libs) we might actually have a government that was doing something!

Do they think if Australia doesn't use coal their farms will be viable? Australia has the population of 2 Chinese cities and nothing will happen except self-harm.

deniseshrivell You need to tell your National Party Leader who is unequivocal in his denial of climate change.

kate_eviva It isn't a bloody cycle It's the result of Global Warming! Every weather phenomenon is becoming extreme You take away trees, it alters balance YOU concrete,pave & tar over permeable dirt it becomes impermeable & can't breathe or ventilate so below heats up. Air & water pollution2

Climate change are only for the ignorant fools! Based on actual science climate has always changed IDIOTS! Co2 levels were over five times of today in the dinosaur era! Idiots !

BellaFlokarti VOTE LABOR!! At least Leader Bill Shorten addresses Climate Change!

Overall this is a cycle that has happened for millions. Ice age=a cycle. Yes it will be hard on everyone. Those who want to waste TRILLIONS TO STOP IS A JOKE. Concentrate on getting water,air & ocean clean. Let’s be smart!

maybe he should plant more trees

With only a few hundred years of data out of 4.5 Billion years of Earth's life, nobody can argue it isn't just a cycle either without it being a guess. Guessing and fear are two things that are only used to make bad decisions.

Maybe the clever greenies will spray nano metal particles into the atmosphere to increase CO2

I’ve worked in the WA wheatbelt and I can tell you the NFF is spot on: farmers DO look at science, technology, facts. The Govt needs to stop insulting our farmers’ intelligence. ClimateChange GlobalWarming

Farmers have the power and influence to sweep the denialists into the Pacific

Well stop voting National neanderthals into parliament who do😡

How do farmers respond to their so-called representatives, for whom this is their baseline argument? Do you have the balls to vote for a Party other than the Nationals?

Don't drag farmers into this BS about climate change, If you can't see all these scientists are payed off to give a one sided view, your a sheep following the EU ONE WORLD GOVERNMENT. Real scientists say it has nothing to do with people but its to do with sun spots on the sun!

Climate change is for sure a problem, but droughts have always been an Australian reality. People have short memories, but droughts of varying intensity come every decade or two. Farmers need to adjust accordingly

Every plant and animal in Australia has evolved over millions of years to cope with drought. Kangaroos can suspend a pregnancy until it rains again. This is not new. This is not caused by humans. Who's denying science here ABC? Stop the climate Marxist propaganda.

I'm never quite sure if denial is wilful ignorance or malicious disingenuity when it comes from high level politicians who are actually meant to be running the country.

all day everyday...climate change climate change climate change...You are peddling lies for the elite NWO globalists

Nobody looking objectively at the evidence does - only those with an agenda to pursue for the “benefit” of their donors. It is quite clear. If you are a denialist, you are a sellout who is being paid to do so, at the cost of our future wellbeing. Or you’re just stupid.

Must be hard. I still think they have just got to take the emotion out of it. Think of it as business that is not profitable, and quit. Go and start another business or work for someone else.

Come on ABC! Say 'Human-caused global warming' verbatim. Baby steps!

Put the water back.

😂 been the same for 250 years fool.

Or are you referring to the constituents who are paying higher for electricity bills because of the push for “green” energy? PressClubAust ScottMorrisonMP Australia produces 1.3% emissions - it makes no difference to global temperatures. It's people like the ACF and the left who are out of touch with reality. AusConservation kellyoshanassy PressClubAust ScottMorrisonMP BS. The Green/Left wants Australians to believe that CO2 is driving climate change. It’s a nonsense that’s going to cripple our manufacturing industry and drive already unaffordable power prices higher. They’re marxists in a green shirt.

Nuclear war, climate change threats keep Doomsday Clock close to apocalypseA renewed nuclear arms race and rising greenhouse gas emissions have left the modern world as close to annihilation as it was at the height of the Cold War, atomic scientists say. There are way too many “experts” stealing oxygen which is the root cause of climate change. It is zero o'clock on the GUF clock, so none will be given. Well it's not called a Doomsday clock for nothing. Let me guess, they don't have a Peace clock.

Trump says California fire hasn't changed his opinion on climate changeUS President Donald Trump visits the wildfire-charred wreckage of the northern California town of Paradise, telling reporters he wants forests that are very safe. Why would it? California mismanages its forests That’s not the real news though; he then said it’s because he wants “great climate”... and that cleaning the forest floor like Finland does is the answer. You have the opportunity to show people what a joke this man is, please don’t make his ramblings sound half-reasonable.

'World is not going to collapse' under negative gearing changes, expert arguesWhile property investors and builders are warning of economic catastrophe from Labor's planned negative gearing changes, at least one expert says now is the perfect time to roll back the controversial tax concession. neg gearing has been abused benefiting investors of many properties If anything it should be limited to 1 prop ona grandfather term Dispose d rest of prop for fairness They have luxury pad/penthouse in Surfers then they let on Airbnb once or twice then claim gearing Rorts Oh yeah!, the GST was also meant to be harmless and stop tax dodgers, black market traders. But I think neg gearing should be only for apartments andregardless of built year as we need to get the housing out of the acre blocks to denser living in line with population growth. Do you really think that the people who are making the most money out of this are going to make positive comments about something that is going to reduce the amount of money they make?

States' climate risks are rising, led by health impacts: Moody'sAustralia's states face increasing threats from climate change but their economic diversity will be key to providing a buffer against the worst of the economic fallout, according to international ratings agency Moody's. p_hannam Australia has a population of just 25 million people, and produces just 1 % of global emissions. If Australia slipped below the waves at midnight to night, never to be seen again. Global emissions would be the same in 24 hours time. p_hannam What a load of rubbish.
