  • Turnbull leads attack on wind as Coalition readies carbon price backflip

    Turnbull leads attack on wind as Coalition readies carbon price backflip

    Malcolm Turnbull joins right wing bloggers in blaming wind energy for last week’s blackout. It seems renewable energy will be sacrificed as Coalition admits Direct Action is a farce, prepares the ground for a baseline and credit scheme. And more gas and more coal.

    Will Australia’s Far Right lose its stranglehold on climate policies?

    2016 election sees one bunch of climate deniers turfed out, only to be replaced by another. But will the diminished Malcolm Turnbull still be beholden to his party’s right-wing, Abbott-era climate and clean energy policies, or can he follow the UK’s lead and find middle ground?
