They’re not “emissions free”, they’re certainly not cheaper and they certainly aren’t saving the environment. Wind turbines are not just visually polluting, they’re particularly destructive of wildlife. Vast footprints of natural

The world has been going to end in the next ten years since I was a boy. In fact, if I had a dollar for every time the planet faced imminent death “Unless we act in the next five years”, well… I’d be rich enough to be a climate
It’s said that the only certainties are death and taxes, but Australians can add another to that list, now: soaring power bills. Anthony Albanese’s grubby deal with the zealots in the Greens will do nothing to change the trajectory of the global climate, but is guaranteed to send

In 2020 the dire issues confronting us all were clearly set out. A long time ago (1989) in a city far, far away, (New York) we were all warned. There is no excuse – you were told: A senior U.N. environmental official says entire nations could be wiped off the

There are few issues on which the elites are so monstrously out of touch than “climate action” and energy policy. As repeated surveys show, people around the world regularly rank climate change the last out of a list of concerns. Most only even pay lip-service because they’re constantly brow-beaten
