Ley must be saved from drowning under Waterford

July 29, 2025

Matt Kean’s UN climate-guru Simon Stiell is swanning around Australia again. Claiming his “blueprint” can unleash “colossal” rewards to “protect” workers. They and Jack Waterford badger Sussan Ley. Embrace the “science” of “net zero” or else.

Yet all the graphs confirm that population, GDP, consumption, emissions, CO2 levels, and land/sea temperatures are all growing. That the emissions of this perpetual-growth can miraculously “net” to zero is vanity not science – no friend of workers or equality. No brake on Australia’s perpetual war-on-the-environment.

Despite easily-protected borders and untold energy-riches, Australia delivers extreme population pressures, very high energy prices, and severely unaffordable housing. Ley should offer the opposite, instead of going woke for “net zero”.

Sure, renewables are important. First, stop giving our energy away for nix. Second, see Stiell’s net zero for what it is: Chinese growth – smirking at Western degrowth.
