These two actions – appointing former mining maggot and climate change denier Gary Gray to the resources portfolio and merging Climate Change with the Environment – are good examples of Labor’s bankruptcy; of its complete capitulation to neoliberalism and the idea that the market is the best way to organise society and profit the only god to be worshipped.

I call bullshit on The Australian and its reporting of climate change and its denial of humanity’s role in it.

Every so often a document comes our way which lights up the sky with its clarity.

Like Labor’s Carbon Pollution Reduction Scheme it pretends to do something while refusing to attack the big polluters. Abbott’s ‘plan’ doesn’t stop CO2 emissions; it encourages them. According to Government figures (suspect, but likely to have some truth in them), Abbott’s scheme will [...]
Abbott the environmentalist?

Climate change denier Tony Abbott is about as fair dinkum an environmentalist as Kevin Rudd.

Abbott’s victory over pro-ETS leader Malcolm [...]
