Tim Flannery’s Yearning for Climate Commissars

  • Michael Green
  • 22nd December 2020
icons/chat Created with Sketch. Comments (20)

Even without his taxpayer-funded gig as a 'climate commissioner', Australia's most laughable climate hysteric still enjoys some advantages. No matter how flawed his diagnoses and ridiculous his remedies -- his latest book overflows with each -- he'll be feted by those who share the view that climate hooligans must be brought to heel

Peter Ridd’s Heretical Manifesto

  • David Mason-Jones
  • 18th December 2020

Cast out by James Cook University, Peter Ridd has found time amidst his ongoing legal battles with the institution's taxpayer-funded lawyers to pen a book whose titular focus is on the science of the Great Barrier Reef. More than that, it is a summons to defend the scientific method, so often observed these days in the breach

They Can’t See the Forest for the Disease

Even when our forests aren’t exploding in megafires they’re in very serious trouble, yet the required remedy wouldn't be difficult to implement. First, though, we need to divert a fraction of the expenditure wasted on the sort of self-perpetuating research that draws its funding from the pursuit of problems, not solutions

Beware, Parents, Your Kids Are Being ‘Scootled’

In the immortal words of Victoria’s one-time premier Joan Kirner, education must be 'part of the socialist struggle for equality, participation and social change, rather than an instrument of the capitalist system'. Were Ms Kirner still with us, she would be mightily pleased with Education Services Australia's dark green Scootle portal

‘Renewable Energy’ and its Four Icebergs

Truly, we live in interesting times, the grand scheme to run an industrial civilisation without the 24-hour contribution of conventional power sources being the most interesting development of all. Given the legions of rent seekers and their shills in state and federal parliaments, it will pay to think ahead: get in early, beat the rush, install a diesel generator today!

The Utter Failure of Yet Another Bushfire Panel

  • Roger Underwood
  • 19th November 2020
icons/chat Created with Sketch. Comments (5)

Given the deadly combination of drought, heavy fuel loads, many fires and vulnerable communities, the summer's disasters were ordained. These had nothing to do with climate change. Rather, they were the inevitable consequence of foolish policies, incompetent governance and culpable land management. The royal commission grasped none of this

Confirmed not by Law but by Media

Is it mere ignorance that sees Australian journalists in the US providing only the most superficial coverage of the post-election contretemps between Trump's legal team and the various Democrat-run states where voting and counting, to put it mildly, was deeply suspect? We are poorly served by such reporters but, alas, it seems they are only kind there is

Net Zero Emissions by 2050? They’re Dreaming

  • Michael Green

icons/chat Created with Sketch. Comments (11)

Any ad campaign to promote the much prophesied 'decarbonised economy' will be a challenge indeed. Instead of the quick, convenient, comfortable and easy ways of modern life, the agency's brief would be to find positives in the slow, inconvenient and uncomfortable. Green lies are nothing new, of course, but this brief would defeat even the most gifted dissembler

Subsidies are Blowing in the Wind

They quiet about it, but many Coalition MPs are on the same page as Craig Kelly in being aware of the economic demise renewable subsidies bring. Yet while they stay silent, NSW Energy Minister Matt Kean launches a report by the left wing Australia Institute calling for more renewables subsidies, which he believes will stop bushfires. Silence gives consent to such insanity

The Climate Cult’s Brat Brigade

No matter how much parents love them, children can be intensely and noisily annoying from time to time. Well that irritation factor is about to see a major boost as yet another well-funded effort kicks off to unleash a fresh legion of brainwashed kids on the climate sceptics in their families
