The ‘climate change card’ is played 'every time’ there's a natural disaster

Spread The Viralist



Sky News host Chris Kenny says the global warming “blame game” is on again, after parts of Queensland and New South Wales were ravaged by floods.

“Every time there’s a natural disaster now, the climate change card is played,” Mr Kenny said.

Mr Kenny said when it comes to Brisbane, the last couple of damaging floods “pale into insignificance” compared to the “frequency and depth of flooding in the late 19th century”.

“And likewise the Hawkesbury River at Windsor, north-west of Sydney, two years of serious flooding in a row now – again that’s terrible – but again, the late 19th century is when the flooding really peaked in that area.”

Mr Kenny says this proves the claims “things are getting demonstrably worse now already” are “just not accurate”.

  1. it makes me wonder if the government isnt purposely neglecting its duty to cause these things to happen … like not clearing bushfire prone land and leaving the fuel on the ground to build up to huge proportions to increase the chance of massive fires and not doing any of the recommendations from the previous floods in SE queensland and northern NSW when there was an investigation …. why werent the lismore rivers dredged like previous years … why were levies not increased after the last 2 floods … as advised … why are we sooo reluctant to build dams to mitigate flooding in flood areas … not everywhere but 2 more dams in them 2 areas would make a huge difference … but no instead they let the greens and labor and the foolish uninformed activists to scare you or even worse you pretend they are the reason when its about a different agenda …??

  2. People who fight for this are stupid and pawns, do they know that the people who organize these rallies are mostly sponsered by the Russians or the Chinese? The worst polluters on Earth. Why would they do that? They do it so the Western Governments do these ridiculous things, like wind mills and batteries, which don't work. Notice they don't push nuclear power that is because you would be self efficient and not be relying on Russia or China for energy. That's the facts 💯 👌 you are being played by Putin and China, and boy o boy they are really manipulating you idiots

  3. Thank God for people like you – willing and able to speak your mind no matter what the consequences could be….

    "follow the money…." and then you'll reach the real truth!!!

  4. As the Scientists of yesteryear die off and the modern day Pseudo Scientists slowly take over control of the information that is released, will always be worse than the previous years just to keep people on edge. Think about this, the Great Great Grandparents that lived through their years, seeing first hand what the weather was like in their lives, and the information from those times, like the graphs the News Caster was showing, had it's ups and downs just like today.
    The difference between then and now, modern Pseudo Scientists only pick out the worst and never mention the better years in the past. You don't think they do so to make it look as if they are right and to increase the fear. The only reason it appears worse than back in the yesteryears…the population wasn't like it is today. Weather in the
    G.G. Grandparents days was possibility just as bad, but didn't effect that many people.
    These so called Scientists today, for most part, are paid for Doom and Gloom Information and not for honest Information. People need to think for themselves and stop listening to the, so called Intelligent people that are nothing but puppets on a string. When I say this, I mean World Wide. Everyone needs to become Un-Indoctrinated, from all the False Information.

  5. Exploiting the floods for political purposes of citing Climate Change is a disgrace. The mainstream media and in particular the ABC are at the forefront of this. The ABC are disgusting !

  6. Climate change was a problem generated by politicians. There is nothing abnormal about the climate changing. Notice “the experts” don’t seem to have any names or faces. The spineless scientists who defer to them do, but this shadowy cabal of anonymous experts to whom we’re commanded to listen without question never seems to show up. On the other hand, I can name a dozen Nobel laureate climate experts who insist it’s not something to worry about.

  7. Climate change is not what it's made out to be. The real biggest issue we face is lack of organic soil which will mean little food in a few decades and worldwide calamity as a result if we don't take the necessary action.

  8. Canberra has had an extremely mild Summer this year. Crickets in the media about it. After all, that is just written off as a La Nina cycle right? Then there is a bad flood and then suddenly La Nina doesn't exist, it is all about climate change. Lies, lies and more lies.

  9. not that every year the same places flood but sure has to be climate change pffft on top of a towns population all these houses collecting rainwater diverting it to storm water and instantly dumping million of liters of water into a river/creek which was never meant to carry that much water but sure blame climate change its the easiest and cheapest way to blame a people made problem

  10. The planet has always had climate change, the problem is people think they can change the weather. I'm not saying nothing should or can be done but it's the history of the planet and people are worried about the little bubble they live in.

  11. Poor old Scomo has now drunk the kool-aid himself. Either that or his new climate spin is a cynical ruse designed to rope in a few warmists.

  12. Government agenda rules the science not the other way around. It's a scam. Most students I've met can't tell you the difference between climate & weather.

  13. MORE BS from Rupert Murdoch Press. Rupert's media under fire from Malcomb Turnbull, Kevin Rudd calling for a Royal Commission into the BS put out by Murdoch Media. Record floods ALL OVER THE WORLD in the last two years. Germany, England, Spain, Italy, Belgium, Holland, USA, Brazil, China, Australia, Malaysia, Indonesia, Saudi Arabia, to name just a few. Stop handing the public Murdoch Press inspired BS denials. When The Arctic Ice is GONE before 2030, the world is in for an extinction level event….! Nassa and Noa have both stated the ice packs of old are GONE. The permanent ice up there is about two years old, very thin and fragile. One good storm is enough to break it up. Small pieces of ice melt faster than bigger. Keep your eye on The Arctic Ice. It is almost GONE…! Please stop handing the public BS denial.

  14. Thanks S.N.A. for getting it totally right without excuse. This generation of overly educated people cant seem to connect to the fact that what is happening now has happened many times in the past, there is nothing new under the sun.! It is time for educated ignorance to be corrected, not excused.
