Why don't you report on the fact that most wind and solar components can't be recycled? Wind turbine blades are mostly fibreglass and can't be recycled and are just buried

What a load of bull$hit.

Climate change It’s a scam!! Wake up and see the data before it’s too late

We don’t currently have a climate emergency, but we’ll end up with one after we cover the landscape in solar panels and wind turbines. Humans will look back at this time in history and say that solar and wind turbines are the biggest f;;ck up in the world’s history

A bunch of rooftop junk will be at the curb in 10 years

Chicken Little was approached for comment but is yet to reply.

Govt ‘cannot believe’ Coalition would oppose Reconstruction Fund and ‘annoy’ businessThe Labor government “cannot believe” the Coalition is opposing the $15 billion National Reconstruction Fund and “annoy” business and manufacturing, says Sky News Political Editor Andrew Clennell. The government is still confident it can win the support of Greens and crossbenchers to pass the legislation through the Senate, as the Greens have requested coal and gas projects be removed from qualification for the Fund in return for their support. Energy Minister Chris Bowen’s 'Safeguard Mechanism' legislation which seeks to install a carbon credit scheme is set to be a “bit trickier” for Labor however as the Greens request coal and gas projects be exempt as well. “The government is not ready to bend on that yet,” Mr Clennell said. Why don’t they mount these solar panels another meter higher so sheep can come along, graze underneath them, I know there wont be as much grass as before the solar panels, but if the sheep 🐑 can graze what grass grows, it will save having to mow it Make double use or the land. Good! Why do we need another “fund” How will it be used? Is there any detail for this proposal? Sounds like another expensive scheme.

WA town bans energy drinks for under 18s in nation-first trialA small town in Western Australia will ban the sale of energy drinks to people under the age of 18.

Local retailers have expressed their unanimous support for the four-month restriction trial. “Which is amazing given that it has the potential to impact on them … but they’re so community-minded and can see the benefits of participating in the study,” Dr Youngson told Sky News Australia.
