Climate Change Finally Impacts Important Industry

Socguy writes "According to a New Zealand scientist, Jim Salinger, the price of beer in and around Australia is going to be under increasing upward pressure as reductions in malting barley yields are experienced as a side effect of our ongoing climate shift. "It will mean either there will be pubs without beer or the cost of beer will go up," Mr. Salinger told the Institute of Brewing and Distilling convention."

    bailing each other out, & forfeiting yOUR future, to keep their failed betting parlor open. let yOUR conscience be yOUR guide. you can be more helpful than you might have imagined. there are still some choices. if they do not suit you, consider the likely results of continuing to follow the corepirate nazi hypenosys story LIEn, whereas anything of relevance is replaced almost instantly with pr ?firm? scriptdead mindphuking propaganda or 'celebrity' trivia 'foam'. meanwhile; don't forget to get a little more oxygen on yOUR brain, & look up in the sky from time to time, starting early in the day. there's lots going on up there.

    is it time to get real yet? A LOT of energy is being squandered in attempts to keep US in the dark. in the end (give or take a few 1000 years), the creators will prevail (world without end, etc...), as it has always been. the process of gaining yOUR release from the current hostage situation may not be what you might think it is. butt of course, most of US don't know, or care what a precarious/fatal situation we're in. for example; the insidious attempts by the felonious corepirate nazi execrable to block the suns' light, interfering with a requirement (sunlight) for us to stay healthy/alive. it's likely not good for yOUR health/memories 'else they'd be bragging about it? we're intending for the whoreabully deceptive (they'll do ANYTHING for a bit more monIE/power) felons to give up/fail even further, in attempting to control the 'weather', as well as a # of other things/events.

    the bleeding must be stopped before any healing can begin. jailing a couple of corepirate nazi hired goons would send a clear message to the rest of the world from US. any truthful look at the 'scorecard' would reveal that we are a society in decline/deep doo-doo, despite all of the scriptdead pr ?firm? generated drum beating & flag waving propaganda that we are constantly bombarded with. is it time to get real yet? please consider carefully ALL of yOUR other 'options'. the creators will prevail. as it has always been.

    I don't know how much of what you said was sarcasm

    Reading comprehension FTW!

    Er, if you already accept the government will completely botch any proposed program, then the question of which regulation proposal is best, is moot.

    I think that you're missing a point I've said about five times now: Mitigation is a fantasy. It cannot be done. Do not try to mitigate the harm, that's impossible. Instead, try to realize the truth. You: "What truth?" Me: THERE IS NO MITIGATION YOU RETARDED KNUCKLE DRAGGING NEANDERTHAL!


    How do you mitigate the fact that south China tigers are now so few in number that there is insufficient genetic diversity to propagate the species, and once the living individuals die out, the species is gone? How about mitigating mercury in the brain of a 5 year old child living near a coal plant? How about undoing the lead poisoning that you have obviously been suffering with that has resulted in such monumental stupidity?


    Government regulation is fine, but spending resources on mitigation is a waste. THAT'S the point I was trying to make, for the umpteenth time. I don't care what some engineer says in some idiotic plan to hide carbon under the rug of the earth's crust, it'll be just another grant hunt as far as I'm concerned until they can show me a replenished population of south China tigers and a fully restored Amazon basin. Oh, and a healthy population of polar bears with mercury presence in their tissues back to natural levels.

    Interesting comments.

    Can you please describe your plan for repatriating all polluting corporations and banning all uses of fossil fuels and heavy metals? I'm also interested in your plan for a monetary system that provides for a lifestyle above the poverty level for all citizens. Or would it involve a sacrifice of some portion of the population?

    Climatologists are nothing more than creationists who pretend call themselves "scientists". That's why nobody has seen a real weighted variable formula showing the output = average earth temperature, and all the various input variables properly weighted, such as Sun, such as man-made CO^2, etc.

    They have nothing but the worst sort of skewed data trash plugged into socialist alarmist formulas. It's been *years*, and not a single dumb ass fool who pretends to believe man-made global warming is real has been able to produce the simple climate model upon which temperature change is based.

    Anybody with 2% of a brain realizes in 1 minute these socialist climatologists are smoking crack, and exhaling their "studies" as quickly as possible to bamboozle people.

    I ask anyone, let's see the formula which says man-made activity changes the average temperature by 25%! This is precisely why nobody will dare release an actual climate model temperature formula in any media reports or UN official documentation. Man = 25% of the cause of the Earth Temperature, Sun = 70%, and Karl Marx legacy = the other 5%. These are the biggest buffoons of a "scientific" profession in all of history, and climatology will be lampooned for decades if not centuries to come.

    Just because you personally are a sucker for phony bullshit, doesn't mean others are. And we are quite sick and tired of your bullshit, sick and tired of your hidden socialist agenda. New rule, if you yourself don't have a climate model temperature formula with weighted variables STFU, dumbass.
