The letter 'Climate Change” by Ian Maclean [The Sun 28 March] typifies the broad, unsubstantiated statements so often used by the climate change doomsday people. What is the justification for stating that 'storm surges will become catastrophic” ?
The history of our Earth's climate over its long past, shows many changes in climate, and no doubt there will be changes in the future, but the record suggests that large movements occur only over very long periods of time and sudden catastrophes are not necessarily in our immediate future.
Ian Maclean's letter appears to be another attempt to cause fear and apprehension in our community.
