@KosSamaras Net zero is more than just electricity. Farming, transport, industry and households will be hit for six. SA's landscapes will become a junkyard for broken down Chinese made renewable contraptions. All to reduce global emissions by 0.05%. It's time we put an end to this scam.

@Climatehope2 Dystopian

@Climatehope2 The footprint of renewables given the amount and quality of power delivered is far larger than a few holes in the ground. It's already dominating the landscape and we've only scratched the surface in terms of what's needed for the crazy Net zero distopian nightmare.

Australia really is setting a cracking pace in its installation of storage to support renewable energy. energy-storage.news/australias-bat…

@agentsmart @redo72JR Oh please. No ideas. No rebuttal. Why are you photosynthesis deniers so hopeless? 🙄

@liber8SA @redo72JR lol. You're a fucking idiot. Perfect fucking username though nimrod.

Cheaper, cleaner electric trucks overhaul China’s logistics “Economically, there is no more question at all that electric is superior. I think we’re right on the cusp of a total obliteration of diesel trucks as a product category.” freemalaysiatoday.com/category/busin…

@TMFScottP Australia is the number one LNG exporter by value. We have the winning strategy and we're better off for it. Yet you're complaining. I'm not detecting a bias here am I Scott? Have you gone all in on the so-called green energy transition? 🤔

@liber8SA Of course it does. By the company that hopes to profit. Like flour mills. Supermarket stores. Steel mills. Aeroplanes. They don't get sweetheart deals on their COGS like drillers.

Even if the oil and gas tax structure was well-designed (it's not), here's the key fault: Australia only gets paid for *our* resources, if the company makes a profit. If it doesn't, we've given the oil and gas away *free*? In what sane world does that make sense?

@redo72JR @agentsmart I agree that changing batteries would make a difference. Is this being done? Not what the photo in the OP suggests.

@liber8SA @agentsmart Sigh, Please see 'Electric Freight Trains' in Europe. Secondly, changing an heavy freight truck battery takes only an few minutes. Also see...taxis in China.

@Richard01357064 @GunTamQui "From huge things mega ginormous things grow"

Snowy 2.0 was meant to deliver cheaper, reliable power. Instead, it’s become a masterclass in blowouts, delays, and excuses. The Snowy Surprise There once was a scheme, Snowy Two, Whose costs simply grew and grew, From billions to more, Then billions times four— While deadlines just vanished from view. Australians are paying more… For less certainty… And no clear delivery date. At what point do we admit this isn’t working? Snowy 2.0 is not a transition plan—it’s a cautionary tale. Stop the spin. Start delivering. #Snowy2 #EnergyCrisis #AusPol #CostOfLiving #EnergyPolicy #Accountability

@RyanJones6980 @TMFScottP Exactly. We kill the goose that lays golden eggs and spend the short term proceeds on worthless junk, like renewables subsidies.

@TMFScottP Why is the solution always more tax? Even if we did make more money, what makes you think government who collects it would use it to benefit citizens? Why would gas tax solve the problems the other 300 taxes don’t? Tell me you want 10% of the gas for domestic use, then we’ll talk

@redo72JR @agentsmart Charging time and infrastructure is the problem. Unlikely to be solved satisfactorily for decades.

@agentsmart Many plods never cottoned to the facts trains have been electrically driven for 6 plus decades. The drive systems are far superior and now for most in the transport sector battery tech will enable transition...post haste.

@Peter_Fitz It's always in the future with the renewables crap. Still waiting for my $275. 🙄

An inconvenient truth for the cookers... #Auspol

@Peter_Fitz Oh please. The sheer volume of solar panels and batteries and god knows what else required to bring your renewables fantasy to life would create a very deep dependency indeed.

Paul, think your way thru this. When the Strait of Hormuz closes because of American insanity, the effect on the price at the bowser is felt in days. If China stopped sending solar panels to Australia, it'd be about 25 years before those already with panels would blink. (#FFS)

Typical of a clueless leftist, Penny confuses sales revenue with taxable profits. She is also completely ignorant of the fact that these companies have poured close to $100 billion into developing the three LNG terminals at Gladstone. That’s billions of dollars that have flooded into Gladstone, fuelling a genuine economic boom in the region. Yet Penny seems utterly clueless that this $100 billion in capital investment will be worth zero at the end of the plants’ lives around 2040–2045. She’s also oblivious to basic accounting: the heavy cost of depreciation is front-loaded in the early years of the project, which means the companies’ taxable profits — and the taxes they pay — will rise significantly in the years ahead. And she completely ignores all the other indirect taxes, jobs, and economic activity that flow from this massive investment to both state and federal governments. Clueless clowns like Penny are a clear and present danger to Australia’s future. Their simplistic, economically illiterate arguments are a textbook case of dangerous ignorance — the same kind of thinking that turned Venezuela from a wealthy nation into a poverty-stricken basket case. If the Greens had their way, they’d kill off the very investment that drives Australia’s prosperity. Changing the playing field AFTER these investments have been made, might get a short term boost to government revenue, but long it would economically destructive - a guarantee recipe for declining living standards and poverty . These people aren’t just wrong — they’re economically destructive.

@TimWilsonMP You guys need to get your left wing under control if you want to survive. Go scorched earth on climate policy. Get real on immigration. Ditch DEI and ESG. Then you might stand a chance of regaining some lost credibility.

A vote for One Nation is a vote to keep Labor in power. In Victoria, a vote for One Nation is a vote for Jacinta Allan. Federally, a vote for One Nation is a vote for Anthony Albanese. Change only comes one way: vote Liberal!

@GreenTyler27 @wpbencic We should be building more coal fired power stations. It's the obvious thing to do from an economic standpoint.

Let me see if I have understood this correctly if I may… Australia can commit $368B to submarines, spend ~$50B a year on the NDIS, $45B a year on Medicare and $35B a year on Indigenous programs… but when it comes to reliable, 24/7 electricity to keep industry competitive, suddenly it’s deemed “too expensive”? Codswallop. Vote @OneNationAus and let’s fix energy generation in Australia forever.

@EVERALDATLARGE "independent" 😂🤦‍♂️. You propagandist you.

Seems #OneNation is making its presence felt on electoral scene. Almost a quarter of vote in Nepean by-election. Big test is #Farrer next Saturday where #PaulineHanson is making huge effort. Am hoping that Independent candidate Millthorpe edges them out.

@DrCraigEmerson No problem with immigration Craig, but why does it have to be so completely out of control?

One Nation is hostile to immigration. Tell that to the people of Griffith and Leeton who rely on immigrants. They celebrate each other’s special days together. Multiculturalism at its best.

@MurrayWatt @kayebabe Dumping the climate agenda holus bolus will put the federal budget deep in the black in a short time frame and will save the economy trillions over future decades. It's an absolute no brainer if the welfare of Australian workers is your number one concern.

BREAKING: Barnaby Joyce says One Nation would demand the Liberals “get rid of the Department of Climate Change” as a condition of supporting them to form government. With the Liberals unable to form government without One Nation, if you vote Liberal, this is what you’d get.

@jasontwebster @senatorpennyqld @Nev05192146 I agree.

@liber8SA @senatorpennyqld @Nev05192146 They are a foreign funded propaganda machine intended to destroy our country

In my hometown of Gladstone there are three LNG export terminals. In the last decade they've sent more than $125 billion of LNG offshore, but they've paid less than a billion in corporate tax combined. The gas companies are taking the piss at our expense. It's time to tax them.

@jasontwebster @senatorpennyqld @Nev05192146 No doubt about that at all. Same applies to the Australia Institute. Is it just ideology or is there some malign foreign influence too?

@liber8SA @senatorpennyqld @Nev05192146 We’ll be destroying our reputation by changing a contract midstream, making it unviable, not too mention that no one would ever deal with us again, they get what they want

@Climatehope2 In Australia, where I live, governments are allowing the clearance of huge areas of remnant native habitat to make way for the "renewables". The UK gets 5% of its power from burning American old growth forests. What's the environmental payoff from this level of destruction?

@liber8SA 🤣 Great try. But utterly, utterly wrong.
