As we recently reported on The BFD, wind turbines are a “renewable” energy source which creates a whole host of environmental problems of its own. Not only do the eco-crucifixes slaughter birds and bats on an industrial scale, they leave a shocking and enduring waste legacy behind when their short
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
It’s not been a good couple of weeks for vegan activist Chris Delforce. First, it was revealed that his mother – who is apparently very supportive of her little boy’s anti-farm bullying – is a senior agriculture bureaucrat in the Australian government. Next, it transpired that his “Aussie Farms” map
Viv Forbes Viv Forbes has science qualifications and field experience in reading the history of extinctions in Earth’s rocky archives. We don’t need rowdy Extinction Reb-hellions on our streets – we need Education on Extinctions in our science academies, classrooms and media. Extinctions are natural events that close every
Contrary to what the Greens would have us believe, some new research has painted a different story about the plastic in the oceans. It is not from us landlubbers but from those who should be more interested in looking after the environment that they work in. It seems that merchant
It seems that anti-farmer activism doesn’t begin at home for animal activist Chris Delforce. Delforce is the activist behind the insidious “Aussie Farms” map, which lists the location and contact details of every farm in Australia. The map, along with Delforce’s nutty “documentary”, Dominion, have been the driving
Education has been one of the most extraordinary victories for the Marxists’ Long March through the institutions. Universities have become a wasteland of leftist groupthink, where the only differences of opinion allowed are between left, far-left and communist. Those academics have in turn inculcated generations of teachers in a dismal
We are drowning in people who talk a lot and do very little, so it’s refreshing to find someone who doesn’t say much but actually does something useful. Boyan Slat is passionate about tackling pollution but he’s no social justice warrior because Boyan does stuff more than
“Politics,” said Groucho Marx. “Is the art of looking for trouble, finding it everywhere, diagnosing it incorrectly and applying the wrong remedies.” Never was that truer than in the ridiculous green campaign against plastics. While plastic pollution in the world’s oceans is undeniably a problem, the greens are comprehensively
As we endure the bratty antics of scowling ignoramus Greta Thunberg and her idiot parade of “climate-striking” infants, it’s easy to be fooled into thinking that the younger generation is going to hell in a handcart. That’s nothing new: oldies have been grumbling about the “youth of today”
As I reported recently, nuclear energy is emerging as yet another issue on which the Labor party is moving further and further from its blue-collar base. One of Australia’s biggest unions, the Australian Worker’s Union is advocating that Australia drop its sanctions and adopt nuclear power. A new
The watermelon cultists of the Church of Gaia delude themselves that the wind turbines and solar panels they fetishise are going to save the planet from the evil sky-dragon, climate change. This is rubbish, of course. Wind and solar, despite decades of taxpayer-funded indulgence, still account for a bare 1%
Meet the Plonkers. Plonker-in-Chief is an Austrian-born socialist control-freak with a mental disorder. I’m not sure the world is ready for another one of those. Nevertheless, she is here, ready to cripple the capital’s transport movements on Monday, extolling her charges to face arrest if necessary, to further
Jeremy has never been renowned for his love of cyclists and in our recent chat with him, he had plenty to say about them. Ferociously expensive cycle lanes, sweaty armpits and even their impact on the environment – it’s fair to say he didn’t hold back. If you have
