It was the UN climate change mafia that conned nations to accept the anthropogenic global-warming groupthink (hoax actually). Sadly, Australia was no exception – getting onto the GHG emission-reduction bandwagon, and never looking back, thanks to the firmly-established ‘warmist’ groupthink in the Federal and State public services, and the gullibility of our MPs.
Consequently, Australia went from having coal-fired baseload electricity that was the cheapest in the world, to the world’s dearest electricity thanks to replacement of coal baseload power with fashionable, subsidised, high-cost, unreliable renewables.
Thanks to our misinformed former PM Turnbull, Australia ratified the Paris Accord, Australia foolishly appears hell bent on meeting its promised GHG emission reductions, even though it is not obligatory to do so.
Given his knowledge of developments, the author now is able to take on consultancies for either the ‘warmist’ cause or the realist cause. So good luck to him, as they say.
