Science academies promote massive climate fraud - Science and Society
This release today from the National Academy of Sciences:

"In a joint statement today, the science academies of the G8 countries, plus Brazil, China, India, Mexico, and South Africa, called on their leaders to 'seize all opportunities' to address global climate change that 'is happening even faster than previously estimated.'
ABC Goulburn Murray - Winter snow earliest, heaviest since 2000
Snow reporter, Maureen Gearon, says there will be eight lifts open at Mt Buller this weekend and six lifts will be operating at other resorts.

"These are the earliest and heaviest snow falls we've had since 2000," she said.

"[While] 2007 and 2003 were great ... this is just spectacular, so we're sitting around, average base of about 50 centimetres around most of the resorts."
Do we really need a Minister for Climate Change?
As for the main question, ‘Do we really need a Minister for Climate Change’, well quite frankly I am not impressed by Penny Wong, who strikes me as a rather bland and unthinking bureaucrat/career politician who doesn’t really give a sh*t about the impacts anyway.

Still, this is what Governments at all levels do, they create positions and whole departments where no real need exists.
