Instead, they’re relying solely on the mainstream media, who are parroting press releases, written by activists, for politicians. Anyone who thinks that
Hmmm, let’s see: child slave labour and toxic pollution, adding to the massive strain on already-stressed power grids, massive weight threatening the integrity of car parks, the same weight causing them to rip through tyres and make even more pollution, the toxic nightmare of disposing of batteries, guzzling
As I wrote recently, Australia’s Nationals, unlike New Zealand’s National, are finally recovering some testicularity in the face of the Climate Cult. The Nationals, the old Country Party, are facing a grass-roots backlash from their constituents, over “Net Zero” policies in general, and “renewables” in particular. Because,

Does anyone still seriously believe in the meritocratic claims of politicians and their pet ‘expert’ class? I mean, who seriously could, after the last five years?

The late Carl Sagan praised the value of back-of-the-envelope calculations. Scribbling a few equations and approximate values “cut[s] through nonsense like a knife through butter”. Nonsense, though, is the stock-in-trade of the mainstream media — and most journalists seem incapable of performing even the most
Every so often, in their increasingly deranged efforts to scare the pants off us, the Climate Cult inadvertently publish reports that make the sceptical case for us. As I wrote recently, a recent report by Net Zero Australia estimated the cost of merely transforming Australia’s transmission grid to cope
Here in my part of Tasmania, it’s said to be a sure sign of rain if you hear the call of black cockatoos flying down from the mountains. But everywhere in the world, there’s no surer sign of summer than the demented screeching of the brain-dead parrots
