From Larry Pickering.

YOU DON’T REALLY WANT TO KNOW WHERE YOUR TAXES GO, DO YOU?

Hope you are seated for this because it could ruin your day. “Effects of climate change could hinder a sea snail’s ability to leap away from predators on one foot”, Queensland researchers say. Did I read that right?

The study, reported in the Fjii Times, shows the Conch snail, found in sandy areas off coral reefs, finds it difficult to quickly jump out of reach of prey when exposed to higher levels of carbon dioxide.

Dr Sue-Ann Watson of James Cook University’s Centre of Excellence, who is a self-confessed global warmist, says the chemical CO2 disrupts the snail's neurotransmitter receptor, causing it to have a delayed response.

“The snail either stops jumping or takes longer to jump when exposed to the levels of carbon dioxide projected for the end of this century”, the marine biologist said. (Have you fallen off your chair yet?)

"This might leave the three to four centimetre Conch snail more vulnerable to the dart of the slow-moving, predatory Cone shell.

"Snails normally move slowly and crawl around on their one big foot," Ms Watson said.

Jumping Jehoshaphat! Why weren’t we told about this?

So, the level of carbon dioxide in eighty six years’ time (projected of course by our global warming friends) might affect a sea snail!

Bloody hell, that makes the Syrian crisis look like a picnic.

But every dark cloud has a silver lining... in eighty six years’ time it seems the deprived, slow-moving Cone shell will find it much easier to get a feed. Phew, global warming isn’t all doom and gloom after all.

I phone-messaged Sue-Ann to ask if the dung beetle was getting enough tucker at her Centre of Excellence, but have yet to receive a reply.

If you look at the UK Met office's temperature charts, it's easy to see that we are now on the downhill side of the warming bell curve - temperatures likely to continue dropping for a decade or two before the next warming cycle. The unknown bit is how high the peak of the next cycle will be.

Imagine if they put all the junk research (e.g. snails) money into nuclear? Did you know that there is enough stored nuclear waste to provide the planet's electricity needs for 90 years and that MIT have designed a small, safe and cheap reactor to do it?

 

First off, I would hardly take any notice of anything Larry Pickering ever says as he is a disgraced tosser from way back.

Secondly, academics always have to come up with some crap to justify their existence and money.

Thirdly, haven't any of these idiots read the ice age charts ?

also, I use to consult to JCU which may explain their loopy ideas

Wimp.

Look at the humidity.

Try it when it's 87% or something like that.

You need a cup of cement.

 

I'm in 24deg and 45%....I'm fine, thank for asking.

 

You didn't do your own Air Cond?

 

Obviously not

 

I think I get the joke.

I don't get it....I just saw a British Paints advertisement and for some reason, no Rolf Harris.

 

You're Kidding?

 

well, this is the aussie joke thread.

 

Stop being childish.

 

Here we go.

 

Peda, phile it away in the too hard basket.
