FULL OUTER JOIN without any join conditions

I have two tables

t1:

+--------------+-------------+--------------+
| Product Name |   Issue #   |  Risk Level  |
+--------------+-------------+--------------+
| Product1     | Incident#45 | Risk Level 2 |
| Product2     | Incident#23 | Risk Level 3 |
| Product3     | Incident#98 | Risk Level 1 |
+--------------+-------------+--------------+

t2:

+----------+----------------+
| Org Code | Monthly Output |
+----------+----------------+
|      598 |           2000 |
|      412 |            100 |
|      598 |           2500 |
+----------+----------------+

Which I would like to combine as an “outer join” to create:

+--------------+-------------+--------------+----------+----------------+
| Product Name |   Issue #   |  Risk Level  | Org Code | Monthly Output |
+--------------+-------------+--------------+----------+----------------+
| Product1     | Incident#45 | Risk Level 2 | (null)   | (null)         |
| Product2     | Incident#23 | Risk Level 3 | (null)   | (null)         |
| Product3     | Incident#98 | Risk Level 1 | (null)   | (null)         |
| (null)       | (null)      | (null)       | 598      | 2000           |
| (null)       | (null)      | (null)       | 412      | 100            |
| (null)       | (null)      | (null)       | 598      | 2500           |
+--------------+-------------+--------------+----------+----------------+

t1 and t2 have no similar columns for me to join on. Is there any way to join these tables together?

Answer

You can use:

select l1.*, l2.*
from l1 full join
     l2
     on 1 = 0;   -- never true
