[QUOTE="Rove, post: 183203, member: 100"] First of all I have the deepest respect for Sir David Attenborough as I've grown up watching his documentaries. As a kid I'd be glued to the television screen, especially so if I was watching one of his Africa series. But lately the bloke is beginning to test my respect. He is once again having a go at Australia over Climate Change. In his latest interview he states the following; “You are the keepers of an extraordinary section of the surface of this planet, including the Barrier Reef, and what you say, what you do, really, really matters,” Attenborough said. Can I remind everyone the Great Barrier Reef sits in the open ocean. How does Australia go about protecting it? We can do only so much. Should I place a call to the White House and ask Mr. Trump for some dollars to assist in building a wall around it. This week I watched a news story where in the Northern Territory the Aboriginal people with assistance from volunteers are desperately trying (but losing the battle) in keeping the beaches clean from garbage, especially plastic bottles. The volunteers as part of this ongoing project identify the bottles and the majority of it is sweeping down from South East Asia. Mr. Attenborough is also critical about our love of burning coal. Once again can I remind everyone the majority of our coal is exported. We do have coal-powered stations and this is where our energy to power homes and businesses comes from. Our useless politicians will not consider Nuclear Power. Actually the Labour Party here in Australia refuses point blank to discuss it because its written in their dim-witted ideology, simply because they have aligned themselves to those tree huggers; The Greens. Rant over :) [/QUOTE]
