To comment on Roger of Woree’s text to the editor, 12/06 -
Roger of Woree, (“Text the Editor”, 12/06), dutifully attributes Canadian wildfires to climate change despite snow still being on the ground in many places there. In fact, the fires were all lit over a few days by extreme-left activists, many allegedly embedded within the local forest services and allegedly using forest service equipment, including helicopters, precisely to blame the fires on climate change.
Back in 2004, ‘Jurassic Park’ author Michael Crichton wrote a book titled ‘State of Fear’ (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State_of_Fear) in which he described precisely this sort of environmental vandalism by ideologues attempting to prop up a global warming narrative that has been empirically disproven by the passage of time.

To comment on “Era of the volts wagon”, 12/06 -
Despite repeated glowing endorsements by EV enthusiasts, (“Era of the volts wagon”, 12/06), they remain expensive, overweight, and inefficient. They just can’t do the things we want our cars to do. Nor do enthusiasts ever comment on the emissions and child labour that go into making EVs, which makes them a net negative in comparison to petrol and diesel cars.
EVs have nothing to do with the environment. They are intended to facilitate greater government control of individual behaviours. EVs can be turned off remotely and programmed to not move on certain days or not leave a defined area. They’re a trap that you’re meant to pay for.
Finally, if there was widespread adoption of EVs, we don’t have enough electricity in the grid to charge them.

RE: Miners sound royalty alarm
The Editor The Cairns Post
Queensland’s budget is entirely dependent on royalties from mining, particularly coal mining, (Miners sound royalty alarm, 12/06). They pay for our hospitals, schools, and police.
If some technological miracle occurred and Asian demand for our clean coal stopped instead of continually increasing, Queensland would go broke very quickly.
At that point, the government would probably whack royalty taxes on “free” wind and sunlight to make up the shortfall.
More renewables will soon have quadrupled our power bills in adjusted dollars since they began being forced on us by regulatory fiat.
Add royalties on wind and sunlight and electricity would be a luxury service that most of us could not afford. The Davos-class billionaires will be pleased.

We already know that Australian communists will commit crimes against humanity.
