Flannery’s Fantasies
Does anyone seriously believe Tim Flannery anymore? With prediction after prediction he has made failing spectacularly, there would seem little reason to put any stock in anything he says. Remember eight stories of sea level rise, Perth becoming a ghost town, Adelaide running out of water, permanent drought and the Arctic ice cap disappearing in five years? Fortunately, crying wolf so often does tend to inspire some skepticism in some. The reception Flannery received in West Sydney recently is one example. The politicians are even starting to wake up. It is this alarmism that has destroyed a lot of the credibility that environmentalism once had. However, there are those who do take such claims seriously.
