Tim Flannery’s “Last Barrier to Climate Collapse”

The global warming alarmism never ends:

Scientist Tim Flannery has proposed a radical solution to climate change which may change the colour of the sky.

But he says it may be necessary, as the "last barrier to climate collapse."

Professor Flannery says climate change is happening so quickly that mankind may need to pump sulphur into the atmosphere to survive.

Australia’s best-known expert on global warming has updated his climate forecast for the world – and it’s much worse than he thought just three years ago.

He has called for a radical suite of emergency measures to be put in place.

The gas sulphur could be inserted into the earth’s stratosphere to keep out the sun’s rays and slow global warming, a process called global dimming. [The Age]

I have to wonder if Professor Flannery has heard that the globe has been cooling since 1998?  I love this quote from Flannery:

Prof Flannery, the 2007 Australian of the Year, said the sulphur could be dispersed above the earth’s surface by adding it to jet fuel.

He conceded there were risks to global dimming via sulphur.

"The consequences of doing that are unknown."

Great let’s start pumping sulphur in the air without knowing the consequences.  Kind of sounds like the science of the global warming alarmists in general.  Tim Flannery would be best discussing his idea with the 31,000 scientists skeptical of global warming instead of the Australian Parliament.
