“So, he can go for his 43 per cent, ‘blind Freddy’ could tell you that is not possible,” Mr Plimer told Sky News host Rowan Dean.
“We’re seeing examples of that in Germany, we’re seeing it in the UK. We are seeing people have no energy, no hot food, no hot showers and having to go back to living the way they did a century or two centuries ago.
Just because he owns a mining company doesnt mean his FACTS are no longer FACTS, you really dont get the whole idea of Logic do you?
So true god help us they have no idea!
God know Sky News tried and failed. 😂
So Ian Plimer is speaking outside his area of expertise... again!
he got y8hat wrong turned out Morrison and Dutton did a better job of bringing down a Govt
So Sky news gets climate change advice from a geologist . 🙄
Who would have thought that Murdoch and Newscorp was so against life, the environment and our existent.. but there you go 💁♂️
What a load of cobblers.
When you lie on your resume.
Bowen must be doing a great job. The rightwingers are clearly rattled.
Quoting Ian Plimer on climate change would be like quoting a corporate managing director on workers rights. Both have very special reasons to obfuscate and lie.
OMGTheMess He comes across as a bit of a clown. Too cocky by half, one of those classic politicians you see every so often, newly elected and thinks that he and his mob will be in government forever. The voters have a tendency to give people like him a rude shock.
Do people actually pay attention to SkyNews
I guess Ian knows his rocks. Would surely get everybody's at Sky off if he is right.
A delusional climate change denier whose views can only be shared on Sky (Not) News has an opinion that Labor's climate change policy will be the end of Labor in government, however 95% of people disagree with him so who cares.
Geologist Ian Plimer appears to be a professional climate change denier, exactly the sort of person given a platform by Murdoch's Minions.
Couldn’t find an astrologer to comment?
Prof Plimer's 100% correct. I've read his book and prof Plimer is brilliant.
Sky news quoting Ian plimer. The guy who thinks the sun is made of iron. Good on ya sky. Keep up the quality work.
Who brought down the LNP even quicker? Who will guide them to glory? Mr 17% ? Hehehe

Sty News, where news goes to die SkyNewsLies
Albo Government: Australia's Joe Biden moment (without the child sniffing stuff).
Do you even google these people before you quote them?
Sky Notnews, you're not getting any better at this are you ?
Primers a nut bag climate denier
geologist? so if i want to learn to fly an aircraft, i should speak to my dentist?
He probably feels threatened by Chris Bowen’s competence and integrity.
Coff
Ian Plimer......L.O.L.
The facts on climate change.
Double clown🤡🤡
Known fossil fuel shill attacks efforts to address climate change in service of their fossil fuel agenda. There. Fixed that headline for you. Speak to an actual expert on climate FFS not the shills
Ian Plimer has been totally discredited for a long while now. Paid for with mining money to say whatever they want. Sold out a long while ago.
I know a geologist who thinks your geologist is talking sh!t. Just saying
Ian Plimer you are desperate Sky try putting forward balanced views.
the climate fraud is disgraceful, i don't know how bowen can live with himself, he knows its a scam
I don't want to sound disrespectful to anyone but I have to wonder, what sort of people does this media outlet cater to? Are there really that many uninformed and gullable readers out there to sustain such an enterprise? Or is it just seen as entertainment?
Geologist? Bit like saying sky does news 🤣🤣🤣😂
Difficult for Bowen to know which way is 'down' when his head is so far up...
Since when has Sky been interested in the views of geologists?
Agree 100%. The mans a fraud.
More verbal diarrhoea, which mongrel murdoch’s garbage media outlets are happy to spread.
Chris Bowen always talks Crap everytime he opens his mouth .
What a fucking surprise. Wouldn't have anything to do with your backers raping the fucking country (and paying no tax on the revenue it generates), would it? SkyNewsIsPropaganda SkyNewsIsPureShit
So you’re now using a rock specialist?
😏😩🥴👎
Geologist Ian Pilmer reading the demise of the ALP in his rocks,blaming Chris Bowen as a cause
Aren’t you supposed to state if its a parody account 🤷🏻♂️
Geologist Ian Plimer....should be the tip...like asking your mechanic if it's a good time to invest.
Geologist Ian Plimer is not an expert on climate.
Geologist..lol
Ian who?
Plimer should know, after all,he's a geologist LOL
Bowen is a climate clown
And here we are coldest start to December. Climate change = BS
Thank you Ian Plimer, what a breath of fresh air in a 'climate' of windbags and 'hot air'. He was equally as wreckless in his former 2-portfolios, but this one will have devastating effects on the Australian economy and therefore jobs by the union party
This Ian Plimer? Ian Rutherford Plimer is an Australian geologist and professor emeritus at the University of Melbourne. He rejects the scientific consensus on climate change. He has been criticised by climate scientists for misinterpreting data and spreading misinformation.
So glad I can just disregard this as BS because its coming from your channel... phew
Plimer has the brains of a rock
ReturnOfTheOP1 says Ian Plimmer is discredited and anything he says should be totally ignored.
Ian Plimer?😏 “Plimer has been a director of numerous mining companies including Ivanhoe Australia, CBH Resources, Kefi Minerals, Silver City Minerals, Ormil Energy Ltd, TNT Mines, Niuminco Group and Lakes Oil.”
Well, BMD. When was Plimer resurrected
Bowen is a walking dildo....
A geologist? He studied fkn rocks! You certainly have a pool of fkwits to draw from.
It didn't seem like that in question time where he literally mopped up the libs stupid questions. Especially about gas..
In other words Chris Bowen is on track to get magnificent results. The rule of thumb is that set out to report the opposite of what the reality is. They seem to find the experts and/or cookers that fit in with their BrothersGrimm approach to the news.
What exactly does the study of geology have to do with the study of the climate? Especially one who works for mining companies?
Good luck with that! Bowen's as tough as nails.
Oh well in that case. WE LOVE YOU Bowenchris
Isn't he one of Gina's Minions
May as well interview a plumber
😂
Bullshit
I was once told by a senior mining executive, that given the chance, he would only hire one-handed geologists as he was tired of hearing their 'on the other hand' opinions. Ian Pilmer seems to voice what fascinates his bosses. Worthless.
Well there is nothing new in this news article ... anyone with any nous knows Chris Bowen's lack of capability. His determination and arrogance to proceed with his agenda after facing evidence that prove it wrong are both traits that will pull this country down to 3rd world.
Climate change and energy brought the LNP down to irrelevance.
For sure
Climate scientists only go where the money flows.
Renewables are going to be great. Our energy bills will only double. Gee thanks Albo
MurdochSewerageCo 🖕
He says, she says, He says, she says, He says, she says, He says, she says, He says, she says, He says, she says, He says, she says, He says, she says, He says, she says, He says, she says, He says, she says, He says, she says, WOW! Opinion is not NEWS! It’s scuttlebutt!
And that`s why they gave Bowen the Job. He`s the one Labor could easily afford to loose. He won`t be in the job at the next election.
Neck to neck with the ghastly Albo.
'Geologist'? - you guys are hilarious.
Ohhh please-Ian Plimer, that well-known googlelist. We thought dinosaurs were extinct. ‘An op-ed by Prof Ian Plimer in the Australian, condemned as blatantly false by climate scientists, was found to have breached standards by the Australian Press Council’
Wow. So a professional cooker doesn't like our environment minister. There's news!
Ha Ha Hilarious
Is that because no one st Sky is competent enough to do it themselves.
More garbage coming from Sky.
A geologist is not a climate scientist so why does his opinion matter to anyone?
AS HE DID UNDER BILL SHORTEN CHRIS BOWEN IS TOXIC FOR ALP ! HIS ARROGANT EMBRACE OF WINDFARMS WHEN GERMANY PROVED THEM EXPENSIVE & INEFFECTIVE: CONSIDER NUCLEAR WHICH IS A PROVEN AND READILY AVAILABLE TECHNOLOGY AS IS HELE COAL!! BLACKOUTS ARE NOT AN AUSSIE IDEAL ARE THEY
I don't plimer has much climate credibility.
👎🏻🤮🤮🤮
A geologist in the pay of mining companies. Also moonlights as a dentist and has converted his garage into a surgery where he performs heart transplants ably assisted by his wife, a former cleaner at a major hospital. He's an expert in many fields - you should see him tap dance!
They shoot themselves on their feet to paralyse them just enough to allow Bowen do a “natyam ” routine on the question time!
🤣😂🤣😂 Golly gosh, goodness me. You lot are so off the rails. Because a ‘geologist’ with an opinion knows more than a lot larger body of scientists who actually study and work in the field (of climate). Give it a rest. 🤦🏼♀️
Hey MurdochSewerageCo, remember you’re supposed to believe in climate change now? Lol
Ian Plimer? How to demonstrate your irrelevance.
Freezing today in Qld. We need to urgently bring back global warming. Climate change is just not working well enough. I feel warmer though knowing that the ' climate ' scientists will homogenize the temps in the future & warm them but not helping now.😁
Cherry picking climate denier ‘scientist’. Oh and as a side note, six months ago it was Sky News and Murdoch rags that brought down the LNP quicker than anyone else - and Libs more recently.
Yes so True, you need to get Bowen to produce his alleged data of climate change and verify each so called fact in the document & check the writers scientific credentials.
Plimer should know, he has helped Sky bring down LNP governments and deliver Labor power in nearly every state and federally
I am opposed to opposing climate change bc it is 'Divisive'. 🤷
Plimer has repeatedly stated that volcanoes emit far more CO2 than human sources. This is refuted by the US Geological Survey.
Geology is rocks dude and that's what your brain is made up of
Trotting out Mining Industry pundits as though they offer reasonable evidence-based opinions. Mining Geologists are not Climate Scientists.
So you couldn't find a climate scientist to discuss climate science, nor a political scientist to discuss politics, so you spoke to a *checks notes* geologist to report on both? Is it because you're just too cheap to interview experts, or because you deliver propaganda not news?
Plimer is a fruitcake. auspol
All things man made climate change kinda of reminds me of the Crypto market - people talking about something that doesn't actually exist! The crypto market has crashed badly - will the climate merry go round be the same!
His wiki page: Ian Rutherford Plimer is an Australian geologist and professor emeritus at the University of Melbourne. He rejects the scientific consensus on climate change. He has been criticised by climate scientists for misinterpreting data and spreading misinformation.
So, someone who looks at rocks is now an expert on climate change? The only connection I can see, , is where you find your 'experts'.
What else can be expected from the truth factory skynewsaust
jarjarbot1 translate
Ian Plimer on climate 😂
He is blinded by his obsession. Logic is beyond him Bowen is Albo's biggest weakness
You might actually want to get some one who works in the field or if I put it in a way for you too understand - you wouldn't ask a darts player to teach you chess.
Ian Plimer has published several misleading and inaccurate books on climate change…possibly his investments in fossil fuels make him a poor arbiter of energy policy?
My two Palaeontologists and one Egyptologist say your Geologist wouldn't know sh*t!! ThisisNotJournalism
🖕
He or the marshmallow PM. Frankly, I think there all bad.
Sky News is a blot on the media landscape ...
Geologist? Is that as good as they can get to spruik Liberal/Murdoch doctrine?
This Ian Plimer? 'Ian Rutherford Plimer is an Australian geologist and professor emeritus at the University of Melbourne. He rejects the scientific consensus on climate change. He has been criticised by climate scientists for misinterpreting data and spreading misinformation.'
Sky News appears to be in a death throes a self destruct variety.
Plimer ...hahaha haha hahahahahaaha bwahahahaha hahahahahaaha 🤣🤣🤣
Spot on. Go Bowen…
Albo is doing a really good job of it himself. With this arrogance and not listening to people that know what they doing. Sadly, they are taking Australia down with them. Australia was moving forward with a coalition government. Now we are just going backwards.
Does that mean he's the one your most frightened of? MurdochGutterMedia
Someone's been licking the wrong rocks
Rock Karen has a go.
Is Ian Plimer the Nick Coatsworth of geology?
Ah, another classic Sky News prediction. Tell me, how accurate have you guys been lately?
Ian Plimer, another News Corp/SKY climate change denying pet.
What’s the difference between a geologist & climate change scientist (climatologist)? Let me tell you . Climatologists evaluate scientific data & research about climate. Geologists study the history of the earth through rocks & rock formations. Don’t weaponise Plimer.
The same Palmer who’s theories on climate change have been tested and thrown out by his scientific peers , Yet sky still insists on interviewing and quoting him. Skynews lacks credibility
Well, he has the necessary experience to do just that. One could argue, his biggest asset to any government! I'm all for the gradual transformation to renewable energy. But sometimes I wonder just how forward thinking some politicians really are? 🙄😎🍃🍀😎
Sky News is slowly racking up a wide variety of opinions. Maybe tomorrow we could get an astrologists opinion.
Plimer was fantastic when he campaigned against creationists and intelligent design fallacies. But on this topic, he's off with the fairies. He's not accepting evidence, not being scientific. It's sad to watch the decay of a once great mind
Shouldn't your banner be Sky Lies Australia?
It wouldn't be Sky News filth unless it was full of bullshit and anti Labor, Murdoch and his team of scumbags, don't like people being held to account, they don't care how much damage they do, as long as their bank accounts are full
Quoting Ian Plimer as a credible source on climate change and energy is like quoting Donald Trump on preserving democracy.
Plimer should go back to chipping rocks - a subject he probably knows something about - rather than throwing dirt.
Ian Plimer is a crime against humanity with his dissent against the overwhelming scientific consensus which knows that burning fossil fuels threatens human life on this planet. Nobody, least of all SkyNews, should take him seriously.
Ian Plimer is just a tad isolated with his views,just a tad
Who in their right mind would ever vote Liberal after Morrison?
Who better to get political forecasts from than a bloke who stares at rocks for a living?
Who pays Ian Pilmer again? Oh that's right the fossil fuel lobby. Can't really believe him can we?
Geologist says it all,probably spent to much time licking the wrong rocks
At the rate renewable projects are been built at the moment we will pass all targets set by government earlier,so I’d say Chris and labour will be a shining light in the country for quite awhile
SkyNews getting desperate now, making geologists out to be experts on politics. Jesus wept.
Not so sure. There’s plenty of competition!
omg....you really need to stop this nonsense....and accept the Labor government is here to stay...for a LONG time...
Sky News 🤣🤣🤣🤣
We ALL know that 100%
Plimer earns at least $400k per year from Mining Companies, so there is that!
Why would any News outlet, try to assist or promote actions against Climate repair, that is in everyones' best interests? What are Plimers' Climate Quals & has he ever been right?
Yeah nah
Wa? Didn’t u vote for climate action like the rest of us? 🤣🤣🤣
Ian Plimer = ClimateDenier
Plimer has Large holdings in mining companies that contribute to Global warming he has received funding from the Mining lobby. His theories are disputed by the vast majority of reputable climate scientists?
Bowen is the Green's puppet he's their yes man
Yeah Go Chris Bowen!
Unfortunately Ian Plimer is a liar. You consistently lie to your audience about climate change. I wonder why?
MurdochGutterMedia MurdochRoyalCommission
Who?
A climate change denialist who can only share his 'ideas' & 'notions' on sky really doesn't hold much weight though. So come back when you have someone worthy of our time
Lol, keep going you're hilarious
Agree. Bowen is a blinkered ideologue. A zealot. His wishing, hoping and aspiration in the face of hard facts will not end well for the government or Australian families and businesses.
Couldn't find a café owner?
Says a climate change denier. His opinion carries all the weight of a lazy fart. Jesus, Sty, why DO you keep digging up these easily discounted troglodytes? It only cements you as the Cooker Channel.
a man with a vested interest in fossil fuels wants to bring down a man trying to accelerate the change to renewables. well strike me pink.
Have to agree. Blackout Bowen so out of his league.
This Ian Plimer.👇
Chris Bowen comes across as a cult member zealot. His speech, his actions, his face. It's entirely creepy & alarming that this person will be allowed to impoverish our economy and our country.
Who ever listens to Pilmer?
Geologists are basically 'Miners', vested interests everywhere with Sky
Absolutely right
don’t listen to geologists
Work cited: 'I made it the Fuㄷk up!'
Bowenchris is out of his depth as energy minister.
Lol
Ian Pilmer has a history of misinterpreting data. He has also failed to mention that solar energy is not a large component of the countries he is comparing Australia to.
