  • Malcolm Turnbull's View of the Temperature and Sea Levels of Sydney, 1788 to 2015
    Malcolm Turnbull’s view of the temperature and sea levels of Sydney, 1788 to 2015 Sydney Harbour An essay by Dr G M Derrick Brisbane, Australia E: [email protected] November 2015 Executive Summary Malcolm Turnbull’s message to the Climate Conference in Paris, 2015. As a resident living on the southern shore of one of the finest harbours in the world, Malcolm is in a perfect position to view and appreciate the moods of weather and climate of this waterway and nearby beaches. He has acknowledged new data on temperature and tides, and he is now able to declare as follows: In my home town of Sydney, there has been. 1. No change in the trends of monthly maximum and minimum temperatures for a period of 227 years, from 1788 to 2014, and this is reluctantly supported by Messrs Karoly and Gergis, two of our leading climate alarmists . 2. No significant sea level rise in the harbour for the past 120 years, and what little there has been is about the height of a matchbox over a century. 3. And finally, along the northern beaches of Sydney, there has been no suggestion of any sea level rise there for the past 140 years. 2 Malcolm Turnbull (Figure 1) is the Prime Minister of Australia, a position he acceded to in September 2015 by deposing former Prime Minister Tony Abbott in an internal party coup ; with Abbott flagging in the polls, Turnbull called for a spill of leadership, and won the subse- quent ballot of Liberal Party members of Parliament by a comfortable majority.
