No More Mr Nice Guy: It’s Past Time to Flip the Bird at Wind Turbines

The wind industry has been stealing from us for almost 30 years now. $Trillions in subsidies and all we’ve got to show for it are rocketing power prices, pristine landscapes turned to industrial wastelands, wrecked rural communities and bird and bat carnage. Even former Greens leader, Bob Brown spat the dummy recently over plans to … Continue reading No More Mr Nice Guy: It’s Past Time to Flip the Bird at Wind Turbines

Nuclear Power: Safe, 24/7 CO2 Free Generation – What On Earth is Australia Waiting For?

Tell someone from the first world that the world’s 3rd biggest uranium producer banned nuclear power generation and you’ll be met with bewilderment. But, that’s precisely the case: 20 years ago, the country with the largest uranium reserves in the world placed a ban on nuclear power stations; unlike the 30 Countries around the Globe … Continue reading Nuclear Power: Safe, 24/7 CO2 Free Generation – What On Earth is Australia Waiting For?

Ever-Reliable Nuclear: For When the Wind Don’t Blow & the Sun Don’t Shine

  Sunset and calm weather and the reasons why wind and solar power have never worked; and never will. Cost-effective storage is a pipe dream. Talk about mega-lithium batteries is just so much propaganda, designed to avoid the inevitable conclusion that the world has squandered hundreds of billions of dollars on renewable energy, with nothing … Continue reading Ever-Reliable Nuclear: For When the Wind Don’t Blow & the Sun Don’t Shine

Atomic Reaction: Self-Inflicted Wind & Solar Debacle Means Australia Needs Nuclear Now

Sensible Australians know chaotically intermittent wind and solar can never work, forcing MPs to demand ever-reliable nuclear power, instead. True it is that coal-fired power provides around 80% of the electricity consumed among those states connected to the Eastern Grid (Queensland, NSW, Victoria, Tasmania and South Australia). But, as a result of the obscene subsidies … Continue reading Atomic Reaction: Self-Inflicted Wind & Solar Debacle Means Australia Needs Nuclear Now

Start Me Up: Australian MPs Push For Nuclear Powered Future

That the world’s third largest uranium exporter has never had a nuclear power plant (and banned them) astonishes all and sundry. Australia also holds the world’s largest uranium reserves. And yet, in 1998 its Federal government passed amendments to the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act and enacted the Australian Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety Act, … Continue reading Start Me Up: Australian MPs Push For Nuclear Powered Future

Growing-Up: Australians Get Serious About Serious Energy, Demanding Nuclear Power, Now

All of a sudden, Australians are talking about a nuclear powered future, like there’s no tomorrow. Having recognised that climate alarmists will never relent in their crusade against carbon dioxide gas - being a proxy for eradicating cheap, reliable and affordable coal-fired power - anyone interested in a future where hot showers and cold beer … Continue reading Growing-Up: Australians Get Serious About Serious Energy, Demanding Nuclear Power, Now

Time For Nuclear Option: Australian Election Blows the Lid Off the Nuclear Power Debate

Nuclear power isn’t an option in Australia, but it damn well ought to be. Banned by Luddites in 1998, Australia has never had a nuclear power generation system, despite being the world’s third largest uranium exporter, with more than a third of the world's proven reserves. STT is devoted to pushing the case for nuclear … Continue reading Time For Nuclear Option: Australian Election Blows the Lid Off the Nuclear Power Debate

Atomic Ascendancy: Australians Now See Nuclear Power as the Natural Choice

  All of a sudden, any Australian with half a brain is talking about nuclear power generation. Not so long ago, only the bravest would utter the ‘N’ word out loud. Howled down by the anti-nuke brigade, in the beginning, and later berated by zealots pushing heavily subsidised and chaotically intermittent wind and solar, those … Continue reading Atomic Ascendancy: Australians Now See Nuclear Power as the Natural Choice

Nuclear Necessity: Solution to Australia’s Energy Debacle Means Nurturing Nuclear Now

Until recently it was a brave MP who dared to drop the ‘N’ word in public, now they’re shouting about nuclear power from the rooftops. STT thinks a couple of things might be responsible for the rapid shift in attitudes. As STT followers are no doubt aware, Australia is the only G20 nation to not … Continue reading Nuclear Necessity: Solution to Australia’s Energy Debacle Means Nurturing Nuclear Now

Rational Reaction: Australian Unions Back Nuclear Powered Future

That Australia, an energy superpower, could back never-reliable wind and solar over ever-reliable nuclear power, astonishes the sane and rational. Especially as the Lucky Country’s known uranium resources are the world’s largest – almost one-third of the world total. Notwithstanding that glorious abundance, Australia banned nuclear power generation a generation ago. There are no nuclear … Continue reading Rational Reaction: Australian Unions Back Nuclear Powered Future
