China must be laughing itself silly as it sells us all that the expensive renewable technology -- solar cells and wind turbines for starters -- to our general cost and economic impairment. There is, however, a clean, safe, reliable, affordable, scaleable, low-impact, no-regrets solution: small modular nuclear reactors of the kind that have been powering submarines for 70 years

Here’s the deal, Melbourne. Get to the Impressionists show at the NGV and use earplugs to defeat that awful piped music. Dump your kids in the 'Plan for the Planet' show, but yank them out before the gallery's green luvvies convert them to school strikers and mini-Extinction Rebels. Above all, don't exit through the gift shop under any circumstances

They've had a bit of rain of late in Germany, which meant the alarmists were screaming 'unprecedented!' and 'climate change-induced disasters'.

An adjunct Professor ( Environmental Sciences ) at Murdoch University takes a close look at the water-flow numbers for Perth's reservoirs, which local authorities insist climate change is parching. While their technique will please Tim Flannery, who predicted WA's capital would become a waterless ghost town, it is grossly misleading at best

The BBC has an online study guide for teens which, somehow, allowed a little item listing the benefits of a warmer world to be published.

The error-riddled lesson planner issued by the Primary English Teaching Association is titled 'Teaching the language of climate change science', which doesn't tell the half of it.
