In referrence to Dr. Flannery's coemmnts on the radio, did you mean to say that even concerted global action on carbon would not have detectable effects on the global average measurements of climate system until the latter part of the millennium rather than the latter part of the century? These are the two quotes from his radio interview: If we cut emissions today, global temperatures are not likely to drop for about a thousand years. Just let me finish and say this: If the world as a whole cut all emissions tomorrow the average temperature of the planet is not going to drop in several hundred years, perhaps as much as a thousand years because the system is overburdened with CO2 that has to be absorbed and that only happens slowly. This "admission" by Dr. Flannery in combination with the leaked talking points memo for MPs to scare people into action, has doomed Ms. Gillard I'm afraid. It is remarkable how seemingly intelligent people can make such a mess of things.
