The Return of the Hungry Horses

By Viv Forbes

When I was young (many decades ago) we lived on a small family farm at Wheatvale near Warwick on the Darling Downs in Queensland, Australia.

Our lifestyle was close to the organic self-sufficient nirvana that today’s green zealots babble on about – we produced much of what we needed and needed most of what we produced, using mainly solar power plus a bit of hydrocarbon and wind energy.

But life was no picnic. Continue reading “The Return of the Hungry Horses”

The Cold Truth on Global Warming

This is the dramatic story of how an eccentric environmental speculation grew into a powerful global scare industry; it is the story of the corruption of science, the defrauding of taxpayers, the destruction of reliable energy, the bullying of anyone who dares question the narrative and a hidden agenda for shortages, rationing, environmental destruction and global control. The film exposes the climate alarm as an invented scare without any basis in science. It emphatically counters the claim that current temperatures and levels of atmospheric CO2 are unusually and worryingly high. In fact, we are currently near the end of a warm interlude in an ice age and there is no evidence that changing levels of CO2 (it has changed many times) has ever ‘driven’ climate change in the past.

Australia’s ‘Green’ Politicians Spew Climate Alarmism As They Sabotage Water Conservation

By Viv Forbes

Almost every river in Eastern Australia is now pouring surplus water into the sea. But only two dams have been built in Queensland in the last 20 years—the Wyaralong Dam, built 13 years ago, and Paradise Dam, built 19 years ago.

Droughts will come again and we will wish for another dam-builder like Joh Bjelke-Petersen, whose government built at least eight dams in Queensland—the Burdekin, Wivenhoe, Hinze, Beardmore, Haig, Fairbairn, Bjelke-Petersen, and Eungella. [emphasis, links added]

But that all came to a halt in 1988 when the plans to build the Wolffdene Dam were scuttled by all the usual suspects. Continue reading “Australia’s ‘Green’ Politicians Spew Climate Alarmism As They Sabotage Water Conservation”

REVENGE OF THE FEUDALISTS

By Cliff Reece….. with a little help from Brendan O’Neill

The late Prince Philip would probably have had a few words to say to his son King Charles following his speech at COP28 in Dubai. Firstly, he’d be reminding him that British monarchs are expected to remain silent on political issues.

Secondly, he’d be strongly disagreeing with his son’s views on global warming.

COP28 Truth

Sultan Al Jaber, the President of COP28, again exemplifies the old Arab Proverb ‘He who speaks the truth must also own a fast horse’.

He has been quoted as stating there is no science indicating that a phase-out of fossil fuels is needed to restrict global heating. Reputable scientist after reputable scientist are demonstrating the disconnect between human recycling of carbon dioxide and the climate.

In fact while computer models consistently show remarkably inconsistent and abysmally incorrect correlation with what is actually happening, stark geologic records show we are in a period of perilously low atmospheric levels of the essential plant nutrient, carbon dioxide.

The Sultan is being condemned by adherents to the myth that surface temperatures can be controlled to within 1.5C by regulation of CO2.

To the Sultan, get back on your high horse and tell ’em they’re dreaming’.

EUROPEANS ARE WAKING UP TO THE GLOBAL WARMING RORT

By Cliff Reece

The PVV (Party for Freedom) led by Geert Wilders (pictured above) emerged victorious in a seismic election in the Netherlands last week that resulted in fears from left-wing climate activists’ groups that it will adversely impact on the country’s global warming objectives.

The party is projected to win 37 seats in the 150 seat Dutch parliament, putting it in the driver’s seat to form a new government.

“We are shocked,” Extinction Rebellion Netherlands says. “This outcome will likely mean a rollback of climate measures, new fossil investments, exclusion of marginalised groups, and more.”

Friends of the Earth Netherlands spelled out what PVV’s rule could mean for Dutch society: “A Wilders government will mean four years of climate change denial, exclusion and a breakdown of the rule of law.”

Net Zero Nonsense

By Bryan Leyland

Net Zero electricity by 2030 using wind and solar power is an impossible dream: the technologies and resources needed to carry it out don’t exist. (“Net Zero” means that we do not burn gas and coal for electricity generation except, maybe, in dry years.

The report by the Interim Committee on Climate Change stated correctly that we would need fossil fuels for the foreseeable future to keep the lights on during windless nights and during dry hydro years. This report was shelved by the government and superseded by a Climate Commission report that had minimal (if any) input from experienced power system engineers.
