Labor Net Zero obsession: Australians don’t know they’re spending $12,000 million dollars a year to fix the weather

By Jo Nova

For your sake, the Australian government took at least $440 of yours this year and spent it on electrical hobgoblins that claim to make nicer weather in a hundred years. That’s $1,800 for each family of four, in order to reduce world temperatures by nothing in our lifetimes.

How many families would willingly give up that kind of money on the witchdoctor weather quest?

The IPA has done what the Labor Government is too dishonest to do, and the Opposition was too scared to do. Adam Creighton added up the bonzana the government has spent on climate change since 2022 — and it’s exploded like a tanker of polyurethane-policy-filler. It sticks to everything, can’t be removed and if we burn it down, it fills the room with cyanide.

Back in 2021 the nation was throwing $1.7 billion dollars a year on certified weather voodoo. But after Labor won in 2022 that figure ballooned until now the federal budget spending on “climate change” and ‘Net Zero’ has expanded to $9 billion. But this is barely the start of the true cost Australians have paid — The transition bonfire added about $150 to most electricity bills in Australia […]

Peter Ridd: The Great Barrier Reef has about the same amount of coral as in 1985

The IPA team interview Peter Ridd. He explains that what’s happening on the Great Barrier Reef with coral bleaching is a normal cycle. He tells his story of being censured at James Cook university, but admits the state of free speech at universities in Australia is non-existent — even after his win. They discuss how we might reform science with audits (universities are almost a lost cause). We’ll probably never know how many scientists think similar thoughts to Peter Ridd. We know that they’ll need a $250,000 legal fund if they say so.

UPDATE: Importantly — Ridd says that the admin are still utterly convinced they are right. They have no remorse, no recognition of why they were wrong. Does this mean admin staff now decide what science is, not Profs? Apparently so. They hold the purse strings, not the Profs. Power follows the money. Indeed, JCU has no commitment to free speech; they’ve now removed the clause that ensured Ridd won. In their minds, their mistake was not in being draconian, but being careless with legal clauses. The Deep State tightens its stranglehold on science.

Peter Ridd: Of all the ecosystems in the world, the reef is one that’s […]

The ultimate climate book — Steyn, Delingpole, Bolt, Watts, Lindzen, Carter, and Jo Nova

There has never been a book quite like this. Please join us and make this happen.

The IPA is raising funds to make the ultimate climate book. I’m delighted to be involved, and I’m humbled and honored to be part of this extraordinary line up. Now Ross McKitrick joins us too. It’s a who’s who of the climate world, and as well as the names in the header, it also includes Donna LaFramboise, Jennifer Marohasy, Bill Kinninmonth, Ian Plimer, Alan Moran, Nigel Lawson, Pat Michaels, John Roskam, Rupert Darwall, Stewart Franks, John Abbot and Bernard Lewin.

If you only buy one book on the climate this would have to be it. It will have something for everyone.

Donations are tax deductible. This book will make waves.
