More alarmism in the Sydney Morning Herald

More doom and gloom from the Herald, which wallows in spreading bad news. A new report, launched by our own "Climate Penny", is full of scaremongering nonsense:

All forms of infrastructure in Australia including electricity, dams, roads and even footpaths will be severely affected by climate change, a new report has found.

What climate change do they mean? The gentle cooling that has taken place over the last decade, perhaps? The authors of this report must live in an impermeable bubble somewhere, but that doesn't stop them spreading climate hysteria to an unsuspecting public:

Drought would slash hydroelectric generation, while hot temperatures interfered with power plants and increased demand for electricity.

More frequent bushfires would interrupt supply.

Water infrastructure would also suffer because of more droughts across southern Australia.
...
"The consequences of the impact of climate change ... may range from discomfort, inconvenience, economic loss caused by interruption of services, property damage, threats to heath, to injury and death," the report found.

Ludicrous. Read it here.
