it sure is amazing how a climatic event called the El Nino effect and the La Nina Effect which are the major influence on climate and can cause either an increase or decrease in ocean temps, air pressure, land temperatures and rainfall, and which switches roughly every 5 years and effects areas from north america, south america, africa, asia, and oceania (including melbourne) which has NOTHING to do with global warming or greenhouse effect is used as evidence for tough times in aus, droughts, water restrictions, but not when it causes increase rainfall and a decrease in water, and land surface temperatures.
The current Australian federal government has taken a massively eccessive stance on this issue. the general public, industry, business and the general scientific community think its exessive. Pandering to the green vote to maintain the balance of power is doing nothing to deal with this issue.
