There’s no such thing as a free lunch — and no such thing as free money. The cashed-up Boomers who thought they’d make a killing by feeding rooftop solar, subsidised by taxpayers, back into the grid soon came a gutser. Not only was the feed-in tariff taxable
Just when I thought I was running out of reasons to dump on EVs, they come up with the goods once again. Terrible range, battery fires, mowing down blind people, enslaving African kiddies, poisoning Chinese kiddies, ripping off Western taxpayers… is there anything good about these monstrosities? I mean, maybe
John Tookey Professor of Construction Management Auckland University of Technology Do you have gas? It’s a personal question that may cause offence – and not always for the obvious reason. Because the way we choose to cook or heat our homes is increasingly becoming something of a sore point. Since
John Maunder Recently on a visit to Melbourne, I had lunch with colleagues from the Bureau of Meteorology. It was suggested that it might be a good idea to rename the title of my last book “Fifteen Shades of Climate” to better reflect its contents. After seeking advice it appeared

cfact.org America and the rest of the world are headed for food shortages if policymakers enact laws based on climate change. The effort to “decarbonize” or to achieve “net zero” carbon emissions has led to deliberate policies to reduce consumption of fossil fuel energy, that is, oil, natural gas
If anyone was likely to ruin the solemnity and dignity of King Charles’ coronation, it wasn’t his errant son. Harry quietly, without fuss, took his assigned place in the Abbey as a non-working royal and that was that. But it was hard to keep a straight face throughout
Fred Too A basic plank of public policy work is cost/benefit analysis. You might not be able to quantify all the costs and benefits of a proposal, but you should certainly be able to identify what they are and give them a weighting. You use these to assess if
It seems that Antarctica has not warmed for over 70 years. Oops. Scientists are finding it difficult to explain why the continent of Antarctica has shown Net Zero warming for the last seven decades… and likely much longer. […] The Daily Sceptic reports: Under ‘settled’ science requirements, the significant debate over
Adam Houser cfact.org Adam Houser coordinates student leaders as National Director of CFACT’s collegians’ program and writes on issues of climate and energy. Skyrocketing energy prices.

Quick history quiz: why did motor cars replace horses as a preferred mode of transport? Was it because the government banned horses? Was it because the government put a tax on the horse-shit which was polluting major cities? Or was it because motor cars were simply better and, ultimately,

cfact.org This Saturday’s coronation of King Charles III marks a significant moment in Britain’s history. No previous constitutional monarch has expressed his political views so openly. Unlike his mother and grandfather, whose opinions, if they had any, remained unknown to the general public, the king’s record-
Nothing quite attests to the sheer, demented folly of “Net Zero” than its own defenders admitting that it will be ruinously expensive and achieve nothing practical in terms of “climate”. Remember, this isn’t some wicked “Big Oil shill” or “climate denier” speaking: this is the pro “Net Zero” crowd
