Lol Aussies think its very cold when the thermometer dips below 20.
We can go below zero in winter. Some areas in Australia go well below zero.

Don't forget that we own part of Antartica and your not going to beat -100 C.

And people in NZ think they have it colder in winter?

What happens if we are changing the composition of the atmosphere?

The contribution of gases to the atmosphere that induce temperature rise is not just from CO2. Below are the direct measurement of CO2 into the atmosphere as measured by NOAA.

My scepticism of this line was piqued when cow flatulence in NZ herds was blamed.
Methane is supposed to have 10 times the greenhouse effect of CO2.
Up until a couple of hundred years ago there were huge herds of herbivores that roamed all of the continents, that have all been wiped out. No more flatulance.

I agree Anguspure but that is not the subject we are discussing.
It does however seem to be a major obstacle for many to overcome before they recognise that its all happening. The perception is perhaps that if we recognise what might be happening, then we have to swallow the whole deception.

Thanks for helping to slow down climate change.

How do you know it's a deception?

How do you know that your perception, your view is correct?

I speak from regular experience. In fact I was just on a plane with a lady who told me that she had fled Auckland for the tropical climes of Sydney a few years ago.
Taswegia might get something approaching NZ, but we have these:

I hope i'm not reading "Greta is being deceived by satan" in between the lines of someone's post here.

So Satan is going all captain planet deceiving man to pick up their trash, recycle plastic, etc etc? Really, that is an offense to God or something that is sending us to hell? What does religious views have anything to do with this?
You tell me because I do not understand how people say that this observed climate change phenomenon, is but a Satanic strategy to control the world.

I see climate change as well as the destruction of the planet as direct proof, that mankind is evil and cannot live without God's direct intervention.

The climate in NZ is certainly changing.

The deception I'm referring to is the political move towards globalism and greater control of the masses as a supposed solution to the phenominum.
Another deception is that it is called "environmentalism", when the whole focus is on doing things that protect human civilisation as if that ever helped Creation.

I don't doubt it. Largely caused by the shift of average latitude of low pressure systems crossing the country, that you reffered to earlier. We are getting your southerly busters as wet westerlies.
But this was all predicted by "cranks" who consulted the moon about 20 years ago.
In 40 years of watching in my little seaside home town we havn't really observed anything of significance that hasn't been happening for the last couple of hundred years at least. There have been inundations, one bigger one in the last few years (Cyclone Tracy), but when you look at it the damage was largely down to poor council consenting practice.

Globalism has been increasing over time and is not just a recent phenomenon. Globalism is a trend that cannot be stopped and will continue regardless of any climate change.

Technology is rapidly contracting the distances and the separation between people and countries around the world. This is globalism and the planet is shrinking rapidly.

I can watch a riot in Hong Kong live and actually support the political movement in Hong Kong.

I can oppose or support Trump even though I am not even an American citizen.

Our country is directly affected by the trade war between the USA and China. The entire world is far more sensitive to interactions between countries now.

Globalism is happening and very quickly now and climate change is but a small cog, in the unavoidable outcome of a central controlling global authority.

Which is nothing that any patriot of the Kingdom should be supporting.

Smaller climate events always occur but the transition of low pressure systems is an alarming observable fact.

Our country is being subjected to increasing droughts now and the contraction of the low pressure systems, is directly responsible for this new climate.

There is no debate about the change in climate in Australia as everyone is affected by it. Everyone notices the decreasing rainfall that has been occurring for decades now.

In some other countries the change in climate may not be as noticeable but every country is undergoing climate change.

The climate change image will be far more visible to everyone as time progresses as emissions are rising.

On the other hand, significant sea level rise might fill up that great big salt pan you've got in the middle of your country and create rainfall. A green Aussie, now that would be a thing.

I can only hope so. Central Australia is a barren, dry, and boring place to drive through. We all live on the coast because the inland is so dry.

Your country is green all the way across and up and down to boot. I'm running for political office soon and one of the first things we will do is a military invasion of NZ, as we need the farmland. Hope you don't mind becoming a slave.

The country is not as "green" as we make out. One of the most polluted rivers in the southern hemisphere is the Manawatu river, and poor dairy farming practice in the South Island is wrecking the water table.
Anyway, we already form a significant part of your work force :grinning: and the Chinese have already made the move on the farmland.

I forgot that the NZ workforce is already working here. The Chinese can have our dry farmland as we made a fortune on selling that useless farmland.

Pollution in NZ that is not what I see on your travel pictures. Someone has been concealing the real NZ.

The invasion from overseas is not just from China but India and Pakistan also. Our political system is under threat from the Chinese nationals. All of these trends will only increase over time, the world is very different from fifty years ago.

Yes, we have concealed the huge damage our tiny population has caused rather well.
I live in a wee town that has that had a chemical works in it that caused very bad pollution in the local area. Its now concealed under a couple of big mounds of dirt that nobody is allowed to dig into. But we still get rainbows in the local creek when it rains.
