- Chris Kenny has called out a climate change activist’s “fantasies” as the Sky News host argues the “fanciful magic pudding economics” surrounding renewables are not based on facts or cost-benefit analysis.
Louisiana Senator John Kennedy questioned Olympic skier Gus Schumacher after the 23-year-old was invited to a Senate Budget Committee to address the impact of climate change on the environment and recreational activities.
The Senator asked the American cross-country skier what carbon dioxide is and how much it would cost to go carbon neutral, with Schumacher later admitting he didn’t know the answers to his questions.
“In the information age, we have got so many people on the big issues who prefer their feelings over facts, who prefer ideology over practicality,” Mr Kenny said.
“In many ways, this is our biggest problem, forget about the threat of artificial intelligence, how do we counter the rise of human ignorance in our major public debates?
“How do we get people to share facts and information, instead of feelings and fantasies?”
These are the same people with the intellect that brought us. "gays for Palestine"...
ridiculous proposition. gays would not last 5 minutes in palistine. totally different culture, there should be zero islam in aus government at all levels. we are a christian country, its their aim to alter that. wake up politicians, get your head out of the sand.
And aliens living in the oceans.😂
It is delusional ideation on an industrial scale.
Climate Delusion: The false and delusional belief that man’s effects on the Earth’s climate are significant and dangerous.
The Palestinian Nation Delusion: The false and delusional belief that there was a Palestinian nation.
"Two weeks at home to flatten the curve"..................
The real issue here is that Democrats believed this young guy was a good choice to prove their point.
All climate change Activists live in La La Land😂
Just saw that scientists said that climate change could wipe out Great Tits.
I think that we should all take that seriously.
after listening to these clowns talking i have to agree ,they do live in la la land

It would be a tragedy.

@@Diponty Yes. There's a Climate emergency. Ripple - World Scientists' Warning of a Climate Emergency - Bioscience.
Kennedy has had no choice but to address this young man as though he's primary school age.
They don't want to talk about the facts because the facts don't support their claims about the climate.
How come everyone who don't pay tax have no problem telling those that do, how to spend it. How about no job no vote..?
Fuck yeah, that will sort it out. Even better. $1 tax = 1 vote. Then I could vote a lot more than a dole bludging idiot.
If brains were made of lard our young Gus wouldn’t have enough to grease a pan.
The cost of action is expensive and won't have any reduction in impacts on the environment. Where is the paper to demonstrate the cost benefit. We are pretty close to calling this a sham.
No, we're already there. It is a sham!
In climate science they say 'fear fuels funding'.
Fear plus a hint of guilt.. I seems the perfect combination they've concocted. Who cares about the science, they know most will swallow it hook line and sinker.
Gus Schumacher should b in the circus...his a puppet.
Maybe you should go back to school and learn how to write.
Why wouldn't you bring in a climate change scientist to ask these questions this man is an activist not a scientist.
Yeah whats the point.
Or David littleproud announcement of a 400 megawatts wind farm.
Ignorance and arrogance are the two secret weapons for all Satanic narcissists.
And to think that, at 430 parts per million in the atmosphere, planet Earth needs way more CO2, not less
Spot On!!
Plant life shuts down at 0.02%. It is ridiculous
CO2 has increased by fifty percent in the Industrial Era due to anthropogenic CO2 emissions. Currently temperature is 1.5 degrees C higher than it was at the beginning of the Industrial Era. There's plenty of CO2. Too much. We have to stop this uncontrolled experiment on the planet's Climate.
@@angusbull9685 It's an absurd statement.
And plant thrive on CO2 😂nursery's buy CO2 emitters ...best google it John @@user-pj5ub5cp9k
We are already at net zero. Net zero is when you have enough trees to deal with the carbon being produced. Carbon Dioxide feeds plants.
CO2 is increasing at 3 ppm a year. You're obviously completely wrong.
The snow stabilise for me, hilarious, my feelings are that sportspeople are not always the brightest
I felt sorry for the guy to be honest, but he put himself in that position
Oh the irony 😂😂😂
Well said Chris!!!
DOUBLESPEAK = The average TEMP OF THE EARTH is 57F which is closer to a refrigerator than room temp and IT IS TOO HOT on planet earth
Indeed. Warming is beneficial whilst cooling is detrimental.
There are several times as many deaths from hypothermia than from heat stroke.
@@johngeier8692 .........What is funny is in history when the temp is colder than today you had the midevil times and dark ages and every time it has been warmer than today we had giant civilizations form like the bronze age and the roman empire. But people NEVER learn their history.
The outright lies from Politicians.
Make no mistake; you can't be at the heart of implementing these policies and not know the real costs, risks and catastrophic damage that those policies can produce and pretend you were and are ignorant of the facts.

Great work.,Sky News Australia needs to expand and open a broadcasting office in the USA.

Chris you could not have said it any better and this is what we are dealing with, a world full of misinformation.
Empty vessels make the most noise, it’s always better people think you’re ignorant than to speak up and remove all doubt.

For non-Australians, The Magic Pudding is children's story about a group of friends that own a pudding , that no matter how much you eat, magically reforms itself. Magic Pudding economics is a criticism against people, often leftists, who have no idea that money and resources are finite and don't magically appear.
UNI's should delete points from students courses corresponding to hours used by activists for demonstrations foreign students may be hit hard as courses changed or downgraded while still in Australia be banned being just an extension of temp visas to remain here instead of returning home
Yeah, learn something first then get a job, then complain if you have the time. Let’s see what’s worth protesting about once you have a job or a business and bills to pay.
I seen this in full he was ripped apart it was a joke i was feeling sorry for the young bloke in the end ,he had no idea
I remember the big freeze in '62 / '63. I also remember the summer of '76. One thing i can say without fear of contradiction, I much prefer a nice warm sunny environment. Having very little food, no heat, not being able to travel, 10 coats over the bed to keep warm at night, frozen water pipes etc etc etc. Was no fun. !!
More people die from cold than heat.
He hasn’t even been alive long enough to see any difference in the winters.
At least he knows more than Blackout Bowen.
DOUBLESPEAK = PLANTS WANT 1200 ppm CO2 and we are at 400 ppm so our plants are literally suffocating but WE NEED LESS CO2
Nonsense. Current CO2 levels are the highest for at least 800,000 years by a large margin.There's plenty of CO2. Too much in fact.
@@user-pj5ub5cp9k Trees disagree! And coral loves warm oceans. Ever see artic coral? Polar bears are everywhere. Seals are up the coast because the fish are breeding en masse. And the future is looking so bright I have to wear solar flare sunglasses at night. I am having so much fun I am having a aurora borealis.

@@user-pj5ub5cp9k Yes, atmospheric CO2 levels were getting less and less, down to 180ppm 21,000 years ago at the end of the last glacial period. At 150ppm trees at sea level start to die off. Without human intervention in exploiting the fossil fuels - the Earth would start to die off in a million years.
I had 2nd hand embarrassment listening to that.
What a muppet
Bowen is right that the dividends of action are enormous. Enormous for him personally at the expense of we plebs.
DIVERSITY AND EQUALITY.
DO YOU STILL BELIEVE IN THEM?
😅
We will all be dead by the time a future generation realises. that net zero didn't achieve anything but pain and suffering!
There's no way many people are going to come to their senses when big tech like TH-cam make sure the UN climate alarmism statement is posted on any video like this. You're on the right track Mr Kenny, you should do an article pointing this out. It will go viral and you will become world famous
Looking back at ALBO and BOWEN you see they were talking BS back then just like the BS they are talking now!!
So well said.
I ❤ all these exposes. Keep them coming!

They also want you to knock down trees to clear land to put up solar panels and wind turbines.
Plants remove carbon dioxide from the air naturally, and trees are especially good at storing CO2 removed from the atmosphere by photosynthesis. 🙄

His brains are in his feet, so can't answer any questions on carbon dioxide 😂😂😂
He is too young to know that weather is cyclical, we have our warm dry years and cold wet years. Where I live we have just had three of our coldest summers in 50 years, our worst floods in 50 years. Roughly 10 years ago some places had their worst drought in 100 years. Young people and those who live in cities have little or no experience, or knowledge of past weather patterns or the floods, droughts and fire that result. Those of us that lived through them remember them well. These temperatures are not unprecedented, many tell of the extreme hot days that lasted nearly 2 weeks in the late 1950's. Where entire towns slept on the beach to keep cool. We are not experiencing anything new. Someone just wants us to believe it is true.
It’s only 0.04% of the atmosphere. 4parts per 10,000. Not half per cent … 10 times less than that !

This whole performance is ridiculous, and that goes for both ‘sides’ of this ‘debate’.
I do hope his parents are embarrassed by their son.
We have tried raising alarm and insisting on wind mills as a silver bullet for half a century. Astonishingly successfully on the first, desastrous on the second. Yet the narrative insists we need much more on both. We just are not panicking enough.
I saw this on BlazeTV channel back in March.
Why is it current?
Even though I agree with Kenny , This is from ages ago . Come on main stream media . Get on the ball . Conservative Podcasters have covered this months ago .
That's as maybe but doesn't mean that it shouldn't be shown again. No doubt that certain people haven't seen this idiot youth making a complete fool of himself.

"this is our biggest problem... how do we counter the rise of human ignorance in our major public debates" nice observation Chris, how to achieve that balance, make that a national convention, a series of debates, perhaps even a reality TV show "my net zero partner", any channel/medium that gets the eyeballs onto it, the challenge is that marketing fear and feelings is easier than promoting facts!!
Havent bushfires always happened in Australia?..
I lost brain cells listening to him
I offer that the United Nations disclaimer above is presumptuous and highly flawed. Repeating it is shameful.
I see the changes in the winters through my delusion
But the murdoch gutter press airs a 17 yr old nuclear expert will shackle??

Crawl back under your rock muppet
Wow Labor have only increased the prices up for green energy yet nothing has changed since 2019. Sea levels have not risen as there is marker in Sydney harbour and nothing to say it has risen.
We live in the 2nd driest continent and have bush fires and floods but not one mentions the fact that they have builds in flood plains causing floods and damage not to mention Labor shut the doors to national parks which meant no brining off an due the fuel continued to build.
Hmmm
You cant tax a natural molicule.....what next Oxygen???
What do you expect from kids
He would have been able to give an expert answer and sound very intellectual "IF"" he had his security device with Google for every answers that he wants. All of these younger generations think they are all so smart because they can just google any answer and simply read it out. Well as all of us older generations very well know that you cant just read something once and expect to know it forever, that comes with life experience that can only be acquired through years of trial and error and this is the real and only way of learning something and actually retaining such knowledge.

Neither do the politicians… either by design or through stupidity- a bit like ‘expert’ cross country skiers….
Kenny is mistaken. Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is not less than half of a percent but is less than half of one tenth of a percent. And 90 percent of that is there due to natural processes, and because this gas is heavier than air most of it is at the bottom of the atmosphere where it does f all to warm the air but does a great job feeding trees, crops and vegetation generally. The concentration of this gas is in the sweet spot for vegetation and if it dropped too low our crops would starve to death and so would we.
CO2 levels have gone from 280 ppm to 420 ppm in the Industrial Era due to anthropogenic CO2 emissions. That's an increase of fifty percent. The rest of your comment is as nonsensical as that claim.
He knows nothjng about the problem.
This was hilarious, i seen this on another channel ages ago.

Lower energy prices, pffft. My last Elec bill was $600, the same time last year with nearly identical KW used (I actually used a little less this year) was $400. So up $200 in a year.
CO2. Not 1/2 of 1 percent. It’s 1/2 of 1/100th of 1 percent
Hey kenny when are you going to report on David littleproud annouced proposely of a 400 megawatts wind farm.
How many times does it need to be said? Humans and human activity generate just 3% of CO2 in the atmosphere. The planet and everything else on it generates the remaining 97% of the CO2. Carbon Dioxide is a trace gas making up just about 0.04% of the air we breath which is a reasonably good level for plant life. Australia produces just 1% of human produced CO2 or around 0.000012% of the atmosphere. How does Australia make any real measurable difference in CO2 levels? In truth, it's just virtue signalling which may make a few people feel good but it costs everybody billions. In Australia's case, that's likely to reach trillions. And by the way, one volcanic eruption negates everything we as humans do to reduce CO2 levels for several years.
Well said mate 💯%, its amazing that these so called scientist don't know this.
CO2 levels have gone from 280 ppm to 420 ppm in the Industrial Era due to anthropogenic CO2 emissions. That's an increase of fifty percent. Your 3 percent number is wildly inaccurate. According to the United States Geological Survey volcanic CO2 emissions are one one hundredth of anthropogenic CO2 emissions on a yearly basis. Congratulations. Completely wrong.
@@juliuscaesar2583It is amazing. Amazing that it's completely wrong.
