We’ve already seen how Greta Thunberg and her little pals reduced an historic village green to a muddy wasteland when they gathered to shake their little fists and screech “how dare you!” at all and sundry. Well, how dare they? The residents of Bristol are angry at popular eco-activist
Dave Pine The beautiful state of Colorado is known to be a Millennial Greenie hipster’s paradise. Their environmental policies are usually a good indication of which direction the rest of the US will head. “Wind turbine blades won’t be buried in the Logan County landfill any longer. Although
What is electric cars’ dirty little secret? Is it the batteries made with minerals dug up by children in dirty, dangerous, slave-like conditions? Is it the greenhouse gas 1,400 times more potent than CO2 which is used as a coolant by Chevy, Nissan and Tesla? It’s something – several
The government has released a Draft National Policy Statement for Indigenous Biodiversity. It seems to be trying to right all the wrongs out in the environment and is going to be very costly for Local Authorities (read ‘Ratepayers’ – you and me) to implement. As drafted, it goes well beyond the
How much petrol is consumed lugging around the copious, now slightly grubby, jute grocery bags that litter my car boot, travelling where I do? I yearn for the old clutter free boot days. How will we feel about hauling them through Coronavirus infested supermarkets? “People do reuse tote bags, but

The Ihumatao issue has not yet been resolved, but one of the biggest concerns over this particular matter is the thorny issue of private property rights. The fact that a bunch of thugs can occupy a piece of privately owned land and make demands that the land be gifted back
How he keeps enjoying the privileges of the elite is a complete mystery that clearly has fossilised communist Bernie Sanders worried. After all, he’s a socialist who’s lived off the taxpayer all his life, yet somehow he has ended up being a multimillionaire who owns three houses. Even
If you were to believe the green movement’s propaganda, they are the only squeaky-clean troupe of ideologically pure, selfless servants of the people in the entire Australian polity. Graft, corruption, secrecy, dirty politics…there’s none of that kind of goblin mischief going on, down in Fairy Dell. The
Monday’s Experts always know what’s best. Always tell you what you should’ve done – Weddings, Parties, Anything. There’s certainly no shortage of Monday’s Experts in the wake of Australia’s bushfire crisis. Everyone from politicians to activists to That Bloke Down the Pub is more than
Dale Nimmo Charles Sturt University Have you ever wondered how our native wildlife manage to stay alive when an inferno is ripping through their homes, and afterwards when there is little to eat and nowhere to hide?

We hear the constant dripping tap of the doomsters telling us we must embrace renewable energy, like wind. Quite apart from the bird mincing, the rare earth metal mining, the concrete, the noise pollution, the visual pollution, and their inefficiency, it turns out that they aren’t very green at
I get the feeling that Jacinda suddenly wants to be taken seriously. She has announced that there will be no wedding this year, thus presumably responding to the #Turnardern movement that said we want a prime minister who doesn’t spend all her time doing fluff pieces and photoshoots. She
