Changing climate indeed. ABC journalist Eleanor Hall asked Environment Minister Peter Garrett on Meet The Press this morning whether he'd been wrong to peddle a scare with his claim that global warming could sooncause the seas to rise 6 metres. He refused to even try to justify hispatently false figure. Sadly, though, there was no follow-up question asking him to correct the record.
Garrett simply rabbitted about warnings that the IPCC had given. In fact, the IPCC, despite being alarmist, suggests sea level rises this century on now more than 59cms at worst. Not Garrett's 6 metres.
