Rodney Hide bassettbrashandhide.com I read the news now strictly for its comedic value. The New Zealand Herald and Stuff guarantee several belly laughs every morning. The headlines alone are more giggles than the Sunday funnies ever were. I once read these rags as though news was still a thing.

If we were to believe the Greta Thunbergs of the world, we’re just one car ride away from turning the planet into a desert wasteland devoid of life. But then, if we were to believe the Greta Thunbergs of the world, we’d be drooling morons or Greens voters.
If the Greens and the ALP were to be believed, Australia is just one solar panel away from banishing those nasty fossils fuels for ever. Electricity will come free from the sun, there’ll be no more bushfires and we’ll all hold hands and skip into the glorious green
First, it was former union chief and MP Jennie George warning the Labor party to wake up to itself over its “zero emissions” delusions. Now, serving backbencher Joel Fitzgibbon is telling his colleagues to get a grip, ditch the watermelon fantasies, and avoid electoral oblivion. I was, I should admit,
The discovery of the depletion of the ozone layer in the late 1970s and the subsequent Montreal Protocol of 1987 are often cited by climate alarmists as the paradigm case to support their delusions. But, in reality, it’s mostly an object lesson in everything that’s wrong with climate
Once upon a time unionists and Labor politicians actually worked for a living – at least for a while – before plonking their arses on the velvet and sucking on the public teat for life. This at least gave them some sense of what their constituents’ needs and priorities were. Not any

Viv Forbes saltbushclub.com “Zero emissions” requires no diesel, petrol or gas-fuelled cars, trucks, tractors or dozers and no burning of coal or gas for electricity generation. But without nuclear power or a massive increase in hydro-electricity, green energy will not support metal refining or manufacturing, and domestic
Enjoying a few drinks at a Saturday night barbeque with our neighbours, the subject of the Climate Commission’s proposal inevitably came up. These people are originally from Christchurch, generally left leaning (but not rabid lefties), happy with changing all the place names in New Zealand to Maori names and
As I’ve written several times, our collective approach to the Chinese virus might be called the “Moloch Option”: sacrificing the health, wellbeing and, in the form of increased suicides, the very lives of the young, in order to save the elderly most at risk from the Wuhan plague. The
