Hello Minister…. Are you staying well?
Oh yes indeed. I have been maintaining social distancing!
And it has worked for you?
Oh and for the nation!
We seem to be doing well… So how long do you expect this
to continue?
It depends on the science! We follow the advice of the scientific
experts! That is the way we will avoid a total catastrophe.
So, it’s all about the science?
Yes, we accept the modelling and we formulate policy
based on the scientific advice. And we wait for the scientists to find a
vaccine or a cure…
And following the science is more important than
following big business?
Yes in the short term, but in the longer term business
will thank us! Everybody will thank us!
So will you change your policies to avert the
catastrophic disaster that scientific modelling of climate change predicts? I
mean, the vast majority of reputable climate scientists are predicting a cataclysm if we don’t do something soon!
Not everyone accepts that view! In the mean time we need
an enquiry into the origins of the Covid 19 crisis!
But wasn’t it largely because politicians ignored the
warnings of medical and scientific experts, both in China and then the rest of the
world and did not take the appropriate actions quickly enough?
Australia has been quick to react and we have done well…..
We have followed expert advice…
Yes, so shouldn’t we do more about climate change when it
could destroy humanity and the planet as we know it?
Let us pray not!
Huh?
