Colebatch praises scepticism. Sceptics shocked | Herald Sun Andrew Bolt Blog
SBS asks exactly the wrong question | Herald Sun Andrew Bolt Blog
But I’m sure SBS has invited at least one panellist who might point out the folly of Australia singlehandedly trying to “stop” a global warming that seems to have stopped already, and which probably wouldn’t harm us anyway?

Going organic means ploughing the rainforests | Herald Sun Andrew Bolt Blog
But what puzzles me most about the Organic religion is a single fundamental fact. I grow wheat five times in a decade and usually produce 4 tonnes per acre. My organic friends grow wheat less than three times in a decade and are happy if they produce 2 tonnes per acre. Thus after ten years I will have harvested 20 tonnes while they may have harvested 6.

So there are only two ways that organic agriculture can feed the world. Either we must triple the area of land cultivated (destroying almost all of the rain forest) or the world’s population must eat a vegetarian diet.
Rudd’s big plan leaves nasty waste | Herald Sun Andrew Bolt Blog
Yes, that’s the same Camry hybrid for which the Rudd and Bracks Governments have already paid $70 million to Toyota. Next they’ll have to pay millions more to get some dump or recycling plant set up - and all for a car that will at best make just a marginal difference to emissions, taking the extra production, disposal and battery replacements into account.
