The Zero Carbon Bill Hits the Skids

Winston Focuses on Survival

Winston is the longest survivor in the gladiatorial palace we call parliament, but the last week has shown that he is not invincible. Although clearly not done for yet, questions are now being asked about how much longer he is likely to survive, and also what will happen to NZ

Eco-anxiety: We’re All Gonna Die

Well, we are all going to die; only that and taxes are certain on this planet. However, the current tsunami of climate gloom, led by St Greta of Thunberg, the Extinction Rebellion crowd and school strikes for climate are having an actual and real harmful effect on children. When you

Sunday Nightcap

New York Mayor Bill de Blasio and other Democrat leaders nationwide announce that students can skip classes Friday (9/20/201) to join the global climate strike aimed at protesting man-made climate breakdown. Is this just a craven political move, at the expense of taxpayers and of student learning, or

Climate Confessions

The oh-so-woke NBC News is proving to us all that the Climate Crisis is a religious deal by running a ‘Climate Confessions’ page. Fortunately, there are those “confessing” that it is all baloney:

They’re Not Even Pretending It’s Not a Scam Now

Next week’s climate beano at the UN is shaping up to be a bit of a fizzer. Rare as it is for the hangers-on and blood-suckers of Big Climate to turn down some free wine and cheese and business class flights, as we’ve already reported on The BFD,

Victoria Dammed to Socialist Oblivion

Victoria Dammed to Socialist Oblivion

Victorian premier, socialist left faction leader Daniel Andrews, seems determined to turn that state into Australia’s very own little Venezuela. Whether it’s promulgating the creepy Marxist nonsense of “Safe Schools” (the template for New Zealand’s “Mates and Dates”), greedily trousering billions from the Chinese communist regime, or
