He serves on the Boards of listed companies Silver City Minerals Ltd [ASX:SCI Feb 2011 to present]; Kefi Minerals [AIM:KEFI Nov 2006 to present]; Lakes Oil NL [ASX:LKO January 2013 to present] and unlisted companies Hancock Prospecting companies [Roy Hill Holdings, Hope Downs, Queensland Coal].

Thank you vicar for proving my point.

Ian Plimer.

Volcanoes and CO2[edit]
Plimer has said that volcanic eruptions release more carbon dioxide (CO2) than human activity; in particular that submarine volcanoes emit large amounts of CO2 and that the influence of the gases from these volcanoes on the Earth's climate is under-represented in climate models.[31][32][33] The United States Geological Survey has calculated that human emissions of CO2 are about 130 times larger than volcanic emissions, including submarine emissions.[34][35][36] The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) stated that Plimer's claim "has no factual basis."[37] This was confirmed in a 2011 survey published in the Eos journal of the American Geophysical Union, which found that anthropogenic emissions of CO2 are 135 times larger than those from all volcanoes on Earth.[38] A 2015 study from The Earth Institute at Columbia University published in Geophysical Research Letters says activity from undersea volcanoes varies with tide, with greater activity at neap tide, and with more activity in ice ages with their lower sea levels. Dr. Maya Tolstoy, who conducted the study, says this might explain abrupt ends to ice ages.[39]

"I found him to be one of the most difficult and evasive interviewees I have spoken to in my career, frequently veering off on tangents rather than answering the question I had put.
Strangely, Plimer was only vaguely aware of the criticisms that have been levelled at Heaven and Earth and appeared to have little interest in dealing with them. He gave me the impression that engaging with his critics was beneath him. That seemed to me an odd attitude for a scientist to take. He did say though that when he returned home from promoting the book he planned to write a less technical follow-up to Heaven and Earth that would address some of the criticisms. "

The guy is a professor of mining geology not a meteorologist nor a climate change specialist.
Mining? What does that remind me of?

Rumours have it that these fog cannon trucks are actually a test to see if Kunming can host a future Winter Olympics.
