Those who have spent the last decade or so milking wind and solar subsidies, probably thought the rort would last forever.

Elephant in the Room: Australia’s Renewable Energy Target the Cause of an Energy Calamity
Australia's energy crisis is all self-inflicted and largely down to the scaremongering waged by global warming catastrophists. A rolling jumble of false premises and false promises, the frenzied and ill-thought-out reaction to the 'threat' posed by CO2 gas has all but destroyed Australia's once natural advantage of having abundant, cheap and reliable energy.

Power Costs Crippling Business: Australia’s Renewable Target is an Economic Suicide Pact

Retailers’ Call for ‘Emissions Intensity Scheme’ Signals End for Australia’s Renewable Energy Target

Australia’s Power Grid Groans: Wind Power Obsession Threatens Lives & Livelihoods
Vain and dishonest, former Labor PM (and Muppet-in-Chief), Kevin Rudd has a lot to answer for. When his predecessor, Liberal PM, John Howard brought in a renewable energy target in 2001, it was set at a tokenistic 2%: clearly a sop to the wind cult, but for Australian businesses and families, a 'nothing to see … Continue reading Australia’s Power Grid Groans: Wind Power Obsession Threatens Lives & Livelihoods
Aboriginal Leader Warren Mundine Tells Australians to Grow Up and Go Nuclear
*** STT tends to leave the debate about global warming or ‘climate change’ to others. However, STT has always thought that if man-made CO2 emissions really were destroying the planet, then sensible governments would have moved to build nuclear power plants from the moment the Chicken Littles started wailing about the heavens collapsing. The French generate … Continue reading Aboriginal Leader Warren Mundine Tells Australians to Grow Up and Go Nuclear
