A weird one.
My graphic last Nov shows with crystal clarity that China is far and away the dominant nation where carbon emissions are concerned.
Thanks to Chris de Freitas for the heads up.
Presumably in the full article the authors show they know about China. But who would take the time to read further.

More Canberra Government water insanity
Check it out yourself. ACT Govt develops an idiot idea for a desalination plant to extract salt from wastewater and the Commonwealth would have kicked in $80Million if the project stacked up. Analysis showed the idea was a dog – anybody can check numbers for salt input to the Murrumbidgee downstream of the ACT and it is obvious that if the plant had been built – you would have trouble detecting the difference in salt percentage at Wagga Wagga.
Despite this – the ACT Govt still wants the $80Million ???
Truth is their water utility ACTEW is bleeding money with delays to the new Cotter Dam, plus building an unnecessary and problem prone pipeline from the Murrumbidgee River to Googong Dam, plus a lack of growth in water bill receipts. A boss with a salary package $637K. Canberra water users have been so bludgeoned into water economies that they are still economizing despite dams overflowing.

Please tell me the Commonwealth will hold on to our lousy $80Million.
Are the New Zealand NIWA Outlooks as useless as those of the Australian BoM ?
Readers have pointed out to me the huge rain totals for various parts of Aotearoa for December 2011. So I checked the NIWA 3 month Outlook for December-February issued on 1st Dec 2011.
Not the slightest hint of the heavy rains – so if they could miss that huge event coming down the pipeline hardly two weeks away – are they really worth their salaries ? Also press articles faithfully trumpeting the stock-standard NIWA line – “Niwa predicts long, hot summer” – how the MSM GreenLeft media love to print this stuff.

Reverse serendipity in the NIWA article “New Zealand’s rain falls mainly in the mountains” published 20 December – just after most of the rainfalls shown on above map. Note how the peak December rains were mostly NOT in the mountains. Maybe there is a Weather God.

Lies and misinformation on ABC news about heat waves
After a cool 2011 and an even cooler December – the BoM and their trusted main stream media (MSM) have been hyperventilating with excitement over a few warm days to start 2012 in SE Australia. It seems the BoM can not help exaggerating.
I noticed the ABC article “Hot weather hits Canberra” – saying “The national capital sweltered today under a second day of hot weather over 34 degrees.”
But it was not so in the real world at Canberra airport –
– where only one day hit 34.
I worry that I might develop into a nitpicker – so I took a quick look at news for Melbourne. Sure enough I quickly found – “Heatwave subsides with cool change” – where they mention, “…after the three-day heatwave.”

You can check daily maps of Mean Maximum and Maximum Anomaly and see for yourself how the heat originated in SA – spread to Victoria on the 1st of January – peaked in Vic on the 2nd and decayed to the north on the 3rd.
It all goes to show – never believe anything you read without some cross-checking – and I think it is fair to say that any statements originating from the BoM about heat deserve the closest scrutiny.

BoM predicted heat late 2011 – another BoM utter failure
On with our series exposing, inaccurate Australian Bureau of Meteorology Outlook predictions for max and min temperature – this time for October to December 2011. The comparison between the Outlook and real world result is stark.
The BoM promised scorching daytime heat in a variety of places – note that amazingly – NO areas would be cooler than normal. The result showed we experienced cooler than normal days over the vast majority of Australia and mostly near normal days over the rest.

2011 update 37 year Perth dams catchment rainfall trend – nearly a Thousand GL of water wasted over 15 years by not managing catchments
In 2011 the Perth region has enjoyed an above average rain year – as shown in my graphic of 37 years of Perth dams catchment region May-October rainfall.
This second graphic shows the constant decline in “catchment efficiency” CE since the late 1990’s – which was about the last time water authorities did much to control understorey regrowth in catchments which drastically cuts back inflows to streams. A calculation for each of the last 15 years – assuming that a CE of 5.6% could easily be achieved without harming wildlife values – shows that a total of 998GL has been lost from 1997-2011. I have not costed this – but the extra 66GL PA would have made it unnecessary to embrace seawater desalination in such a rush.

Stunning ignorance and lies surround Perth water supply policies
