In a classic Gary Larson cartoon, a family gathers excitedly by the window to see the first slugs of spring returning. But that was the 80s. Nowadays, we have very different breed of slimy invertebrate that slithers out of its den at the first sign of warmer weather. A pest
How do societies slide into totalitarianism? One step at a time. You don’t go to bed one night in an open, free country and wake up the next morning to find yourself under constant surveillance with jackbooted thugs banging on your door and all your civil liberties stripped away.

Ho-hum, another climate beano, another avalance of lies and spin. But we all knew that, even before a single private jet had taken off, Egypt-bound. The scam is so obvious that even an ignorant loon like Greta Thunberg can see it. Sadly, your average legacy media is even more nutty
Are “renewables” good for anything (besides lining the pockets of billionaire cronies)? Solar panels don’t work when the sun isn’t shining. Wind turbines don’t work when there’s no wind — and they don’t work when there’s too much wind, either. Some wind farms and commercial
Craig Rucker cfact.org Craig Rucker is a co-founder of CFACT and currently serves as its president. For many, climate change is all about the science.

David Wojick cfact.org David Wojick, Ph.D. is an independent analyst working at the intersection of science, technology and policy. The extreme rhetoric of “loss and damage reparations” could backfire, causing developed countries to question the developing country claims of human caused damage. The best defense against a ruinous
Viv Forbes “Green” policies are destroying the natural environment and changing local weather. This is part of a futile UN scheme claiming to improve the climate of the world. All green energy degrades the environment. Take wind power. Wind turbines steal energy from the atmosphere and must affect local weather.

Stuart Smith National MP Kaikoura World leaders are meeting at the latest UN climate conference COP27 in Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt. These meetings are a gathering of the great and the good in the climate change world. Some will fly to Egypt in their private jets to lecture us all
There’s an old saying that the more a man goes out of his way to assure you of his honesty, the more closely you should watch your pockets. In politics, the more a party blatherskites about “integrity”, the more you know that they’re more crooked than Dan Andrew’
It’s one thing to realise that the loudest climate-botherers are the world’s biggest hypocrites — quite another to see, in stark figures, just how monstrous their hypocrisy really is. Sure, flying fleets of private jets to “climate summits”, and owning vast mansions, is a bad look. But the hard
