While the Krazy Klimate Kult and their poster girl Greta do a bang-up job of stamping their little feets and shaking their little fists, they’re notably deficient when it comes to explaining just how they’ll implement their ludicrous demands. That’s because the whole “climate emergency” hysteria is

Well not sure quite how I missed it but apparently an entire year has gone by since the Whaleoil Raceteam ventured out in the mighty Mustang for a week of doing skids down here on the Big Island. But time has definitely passed us by and here we are again,

The recent Pacific Islands Forum (aptly acronymed PIF) was an egregious conga-line of Pacific tinpot despots cocking a snook at Australia and holding out their hands for Chinese communist cash. And kicking up her heels for all she was worth was the antipodean Queen of PIFfle, Jacinda Ardern. Ardern smugly
One of the flashpoint issues that cost Labor so dearly at the last Australian election was coal mining. The ferocious voter backlash against anti-coal activism also put the wind up the Queensland state Labor government. Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk couldn’t backflip fast enough on her government’s forced delays on
The most noticeable thing about Extinction Rebellion is just how bourgeois the whole Krazy Klimate Kult really is. While the rest of Australia firmly rejected the left’s climate policies at the May election, the two wealthiest electorates in Australia voted for candidates running almost exclusively on climate change. The
This month has seen a little flurry of pop-psychology op-eds appearing in the news by a coterie of Climate Supremacists masquerading as academics. These blinkered, dare I say, hooded darlings of the hard-left have no interest in informing; they’re only interested in denigrating those that don’t genuflect to
As annoying children are wont to do, the gibbering nutbars of the Krazy Klimate Kult, “Extinction Rebellion”, have spent the past few weeks throwing tanties and generally getting under everyone’s feet. These loons would simply be dismissed as just another nutty religious cult if they’d just stop inconveniencing
There’s an important tool every consumer of news needs to keep handy in their bullshit detection kit: “If you never knew things were this bad, they probably aren’t”. Any time you hear an alarming and startling claim (“The Amazon is burning!”), it’s almost certainly a half-lie (at
For years, skeptical Cassandras have warned that climate alarmism is a Trojan horse for a globalist wealth redistribution agenda. They’ve been sneered at by the great and good of the media-elite as right-wing paranoids. Paranoia is justified, though, when they really are out to get you (or your money,

As the media have collaborated to bombard the populace with environmental and climate doom propaganda, it is only fair and reasonable to hold their feet to the fire (as it were) and examine past media promoted predictions that have failed to materialise.
