Climate change in spotlight at Bribie
The Probus Club of Bribie Island is sponsoring a public talk by Australian geologist and earth scientist Professor Ian Plimer, on global warming.
Prof Plimer will share his studies into global warming in a talk entitled ‘Climate Change not caused by mankind’.
The phenomenon has become an important and contentious issue with droughts, floods and fires being liked to burning coal and gas creating atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2).
Prof Plimer claims there is no proof man-made CO2 emissions give rise to global warming and climate change is caused by factors over which we have no control.
He will expand on his studies in the talk on Wednesday (September 21) at Bribie Island RSL auditorium, starting10am. There is no admission charge. First in get the best seats.
The Probus Club of Bribie Island meets on the first Tuesday each month at Bribie RSL.
After club business, one member of the club gives a 15-minute profile talk and after morning tea there’s often a guest speaker usually from the Brisbane area.
Talks cover a wide range of topics. Recently it was where energy is likely to come from in the future and the future use of fossil fuels.
