The Australian Greens and Eco-Fundamentalist have declared that Australia’s ETS reduction target of 5% means we will lose the Great Barrier Reef.
Ask any green and they will swear that’s the truth even though they have never visited one square inch of The Great Barrier Reef which includes over 2900 reefs, around 940 islands and cays, and stretches 2300 kms along the Queensland coastline.
Heres what a couple of guys who dive the reef most days have to say:.
Shark expert Ben Cropp said yesterday the outer reef was more or less the same as when he started diving 50 years ago….. I’ve got a gut feeling the reef will cope with climate change, if it exists, but that’s just a gut feeling. Scientists say you aren’t allowed to have a gut feeling, but my gut feeling is based on diving the reef for half a century. But then again, I’m not their kind of expert.
And Patrick Ligthart, is a volunteer with the Low Isles Preservation Society and cleans away rubbish and maintains the reefs around the Low Isles.
… said his section of the reef had never looked better, and he was sceptical about predictions of its demise… I come out to the reef all the time, and the reef’s in good shape…. even old timers say the reef here has never looked better.
I don’t know why these fear-mongers keep making these claims
Yet Bob Brown and The Greens continue unabated with their fear mongering claims that Climate Change is killing the iconic Great Barrier Reef.Â
It follows then that Brown and the Greens would lie to the Australian public about other things too.
Have your say!
