It's dangerously low.

If we halved it, we'd have no vegetation.

So I could see that all these ideas coming out on climate change were total nonsense.

And I could see there was a big business evolving behind it, as I saw with the creationists.

So I thought, well, it's about time I...

compared them.

I did quite a bit of writing on this.

I've written, I think, probably half a dozen books on it now.

I got on a lecture tour, gave many lectures, many podcasts, broadcasts.

I have a weekly segment on Sky TV.

Sky TV in Australia is very different from Sky in the UK, which is a bit to the left.

So I got very active in this, and I was really the only voice in science that was talking like this.

A few other geologists were doing it, but not as active.

And because the climate story we've been told is incommensurate with validated science elsewhere, then it's not science.

Well, right across the board in geology, people object to this new religion of climate science.

You can count on a sawmill's hand the number of geologists who would...

agree with popular paradigm.

Simply because we look at the past, we see sea levels go up and down all the time.

We see massive ice ages.

We see very rapid temperature changes.
