America’s Top Green – Michael Shellenberger – Pushes Nuclear Future & Calls Wind & Solar ‘The Worst for the Enviroment’
In the climate alarmists’ worldwide crusade against carbon dioxide gas, only the most delusional still believe that wind and solar power add anything to their arsenal. Australia is the only G20 country with a legislated prohibition on nuclear power generation.

Experts Hope Summer Blackouts Bring Sanity to Australia’s Renewable Energy Debacle
If Australia’s energy policy debate was a theatre production, it would be labelled ‘high farce’.
