    Far from laughable. Whats laughable is that you are a dogma slave and too stupid to see it.

    Buckle up you convict climate change deniers....

    Australia is sweltering through an unprecedented heatwave - with forecasters warning temperatures could exceed an all-time high of 50.7C (123.3F).

    Temperatures of about 40C (104F) are expected all weekend in Perth, and the heat is expected to travel eastwards towards Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney and Canberra between Tuesday and Friday.

    Maybe you should try reading past the first paragraph.

    It is not without its problems, chief among them the concern of increased seismic activity caused by drilling, which is making investors wary of giving their money to such projects. Another problem are the high upfront costs, but these will naturally fall over time, again thanks to advancements in technology that has made drilling for oil and gas so much cheaper than before.

    What a fucking load of bollocks.

    Try using an accredited scientific source rather than some fucking numpty with an agenda and Lotus 1-2-3.

    Do you have *any* opinion of your own? You know, because....

    Air your opinion on current world affairs. A forum for civil discussion and exchange of ideas. No flaming or abuse allowed. All posts should include your opinion on the subject
    Just for reference, my opinion is that you are a mentally impaired pensioner who can't think for himself, and all you do is continue to prove it.

    Now is that anyway to treat a scientifically proven theory?

    i.e. You keep getting told that you are supposed to provide your opinion, but you keep providing everyone else's.

    Australia set a record for its hottest day ever for a second straight day, with an average national maximum temperature of 41.9 degrees Celsius - a full degree higher than the previous mark.

    The Bureau of Meteorology said the new nationally averaged maximum was reached Wednesday, topping the 40.9 degrees hit Tuesday, which beat the previous record of 40.3 C in January 2013.

    As the heatwave continued, Thursday saw the highest December temperature ever reached in Australia when the West Australian town of Eucla hit 49.8 degrees Celsius.

    Study: Top 20 world footballers responsible for over 500 tonnes of CO2 emissions



    Barcelona forward Lionel Messi (R) wins the Men's 2019 Ballon d'Or and receives the award from the 2018 winner Luka Modric at the Ballon d'Or ceremony at Theatre du Chatelet in Paris. [Joan Valat/EPA]


    The best football players in the world produce at least 505 tonnes of CO2 emissions per year by travelling alone, way above the average, a study has revealed.

    Football players spend a lot of time travelling around the world. While FIFA and UEFA have committed to reducing emissions, transport remains an important challenge for football’s efforts to get ‘greener’.

    The study was conducted by Andrew Welfle, a researcher at the Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research, and published by Football Predictions.

    He looked at the top 20 players – the nominees for prestigious Ballon d’Or – and calculated their contribution to climate change in tonnes of CO2 produced.

    Welfle concluded that Marquinhos (PSG), Roberto Firmino (Liverpool), Son Heung-Min (Tottenham), Sadio Mane (Liverpool) and Neymar (PSG) are the most ‘polluting’ footballers as they are those who travelled the most during the season.

    Marquinhos alone was responsible for 53.5 tonnes of Co2. According to the study, 835 trees would need to grow for 10 years to offset the Brazilian player’s emissions.

    Firmino’s trips produce the same amount of pollution as six households per year (49.5 t CO2) while Neymar contributed as much as eight vehicles being driven for a year (38 t CO2).

    For comparison, the carbon footprint of the World Best Player and winner of the Balon d’Or, Leo Messi, was 20.9 t CO2.

    The study only looks at the carbon footprint of the travels made in the context of their participation in tournaments and not as a result of their lifestyle.

    Their overall contribution to climate change would probably be much higher than this calculation though, as football players at work pollute much more than the average citizen.

    “From the perspective of flying, there is not much football/ footballers can do to reduce their impact, given the current intense schedule of fixtures all over the world they have to attend,” researcher Andrew Welfle told EURACTIV via email.

    “The aviation sector is currently investing lots of time and money into decarbonisation projects such as the use of biofuels, electricity and improving efficiencies – but aviation being truly low carbon is still many years away,” he added.

    However, footballers still can help to reduce their carbon footprint by avoiding flying whenever possible, putting an end to the use of private jets or VIP travel – given that the environmental impact of these flights is bigger- and contributing to carbon offsetting schemes that fund climate change projects, the researcher explained.

    “Although there are many critics of these,” Welfle said about offsetting schemes, “it is better than not doing so.”

    Offsetting system required

    UEFA has been trying to compensate for the emissions produced as a result of the tournaments the organisation is responsible for through offsetting schemes indeed.

    The Euro 2020 will be hosted in twelve stadiums in as many countries across Europe, a departure from previous tournaments which has raised environmental concerns, so the organisation has announced an offsetting system for the event.

    “UEFA will compensate for the carbon emissions of the travels of all supporters,” Patrick Gasser, head of UEFA’s football & social responsibility unit, explained during the EU Green Week in Brussels.

    Even the ‘greenest’ club in the world, the Forest Green Rovers (Nailsworth, UK), has been struggling with reducing the carbon footprint of the team’s trips.

    The manager of the team, Dale Vince, is the founder of Ecotricity and has been investing in designing a hybrid bus for the team but technologically is still too challenging.

    For the fans, the club encourages the use of public transport or car-sharing for displacement to other stadiums and has installed electric car chargers in the facilities of the club.

    The fact is climate change is a crock of shit and dreamed up by fuktards who have nothing else to do.

    At the moment Australia is burning and the stupid kunts are bollikin on that's the temp is 1 deg above normal ????

    What they conveniently don't tell you is that Australia burns to the ground every fookin year with some years being much worse than others.

    Any silly coont who has been fighting them for years will tell ya that.

    Except for Politicians that is, Climate change myth gives then something else to bang on about eh.
