The Gravy Train must end.
“The Government’s $22.7 billion Future Made in Australia package will help facilitate the private sector investment required for Australia to be an indispensable part of the global economy.
Nuclear energy costings should be made public

Time to use our home grown resources.
Last week I told Tom Connell that I supported the Government owning nuclear power plants for two reasons:
If renewables are so cheap then why do they have to be subsidised so much?
11/09/2024
If renewables are cheaper why do the two major parties continue to subsidize them?
“And it’s why under this government the number of EV charging stations has increased to 900…………all of these investments are made with the expectation of a positive risk based return.”
Senator Rennick resigns from the Liberal National Party
05/09/2024
Last week, I resigned from the Liberal National Party so that I could could seek re-election to the Senate at the next Federal election, because I am committed to keep fighting for your interests on the floor of Parliament.
Implementing these policies will put people first
30/08/2024
Earlier this week I spoke to ADH TV about the policies I would like to see implemented by government.
International Energy Agency believes nuclear is the lowest cost energy
20/08/2024
Nuclear technology offers more than just energy, it can be used in medicine as well.
More importantly, Australia has the world’s largest reserves of uranium so why wouldn’t we use it instead of importing renewables.
How can one molecule of CO2 heat up 10,000 molecules of N2 and O2 in the atmosphere?
07/08/2024
Long story short, scientists can’t explain how CO2 can transfer significant amounts of heat to the rest of atmosphere because it doesn’t in fact do that. The Greenhouse Gas Effect is a lie.
I challenge Chris Bowen to a debate!
18/07/2024
“Senator Rennick’s Twitter feed is a cacophony of conspiracy theories and attacks on people’s motives including our intelligence agencies, our health bureaucrats, our climate bureaucrats, the bureau of meteorology. And it’s not okay, someone’s gotta call it out, I’m calling it out, I welcome Mr Dutton calling it out. It’s not okay to question the patriotism or the efficacy of our intelligence agencies. He’s saying Covid was a conspiracy by our intelligence agencies? A serving senator of the alternative government, really.”
Billions invested in wind capacity, yet output is the same as 3 years ago
02/07/2024
“Billions of dollars of investment in wind farms over several years have been unable to prevent a “drought” in wind power generation this quarter that has surprised the market and contributed to a squeeze on east-coast gas supplies inflating wholesale prices.
The case for nuclear power
02/07/2024
In the Senate I recently outlined why it is much better to invest in Nuclear power than “renewables.”
• Nuclear has a capacity factor of 92% as opposed to solar and wind which has a capacity factor between 20% and 30%. I.e it is more reliable
The Great Barrier Reef should be controlled by Australia, not UNESCO
02/07/2024
I recently called out UNESCOs threats and fear mongering about the Great Barrier Reef.
It should not be imposing harsh conditions on our farmers and tourist industry in particular in the name of climate change.
The head of CSIRO doesn’t even understand his own GenCost report!
01/07/2024
It’s always spin over substance!
1. The Head of the CSIRO is clueless. He clearly only answers questions that suit his narrative and takes everything else on notice. Whatever happened to accountability in answering questions.
The cost of renewables were originally forecast to cost a trillion dollars by the CSIRO
26/06/2024
Seriously! When it comes to renewables, changes in technology have only ever been at the margins.
The idea that the costs of renewables has fallen by half, when inflation is rampant has no credibility.
Do you support Nuclear Energy
24/06/2024
If Australia is to have cheap, reliable, and clean energy, which will ultimately reduce the cost of electricity and help power our industries, we must seriously consider adding nuclear to Australia’s energy plan.

Why won’t Labor talk about the damage renewables do to the environment?
Former Labor parties would build dams, but not this one
27/02/2024
Labor and the Greens went ahead and took out 450GL of water out of the Murray Darling Basin last year. They like to say they are buying back water for the environment but nothing could be further from the truth.
How wrong can the BOM be?
26/02/2024
BOM gets it wrong again. The BOM can’t seriously expect us to believe their long term forecasts about climate change when they can’t even predict a heavy downfall one day out.
Greenhouse Gas theory is a lie
26/02/2024
To understand the science follow the maths, not the propaganda. Heat can be transferred in three ways, Conduction, Convection and Radiation. The Greenhouse gas effect only takes into account radiation, not conduction or convection.
We need a serious review into the way this country is run
19/02/2024
Economic reform is way overdue in this country. In 1985 when Paul Keating opened up Australia to foreign capital markets he sold our children out.

CO2 does not trap heat
16/11/2023
Heat is Kinetic Energy, the energy of motion. So if you were to believe that CO2 “traps” heat, then the actual temperature would drop as temperature is a measure of mean molecular momentum.
Companies forced to report how they are meeting CO2 targets
14/11/2023
One piece of legislation I recently voted against, but was passed by Labor and the Greens, was the introduction of an accounting standard that will force companies to report on their CO2 emissions.
Divide & conquer – Labor distracts from their lack of plan to govern

We must assess the risks & benefits of climates change vs renewables on flora & fauna
22/05/2024
When I asked the Environment Department about whether or not they had done a total all-of-Australia environmental assessment on the impact of renewables, I was told that they only do project-by-project assessments.
Farmers may have to pick up the tab for dismantling renewables
14/05/2024
Who will clean up the mess renewables will leave behind? In estimates I asked Labor who is responsible for cleaning up the mess that renewables will leave behind.
Labor thinks it’s funny that I ask for evidence on climate change
22/04/2024
Labor are it yet again, caught out being unable to provide evidence on climate change. Despite mentioning climate change on multiple occasions throughout RRAT estimates, when I asked for further evidence on what exactly this mysterious climate change is, all I got was a clown show from the circus otherwise known as the Labor party.
How may cars will be allowed? There is no plan for EV charging stations
14/03/2024
The government is subsidising people with our taxes to buy electric cars but yet cannot say how they are going to build the charging stations to ensure people can charge their vehicles.
We’re going to lose 70% of our farm land to wind farms
26/02/2024
Watch as Labor minister Murray Watt twists himself in knots as he can’t admit renewables are bad for the environment.
Renewables are going to end up sending the country broke
16/02/2024
The Government isn’t telling you the truth about the cost of renewables. In estimates I asked the CSIRO about their costing forecast methods in regard to converting to renewable energy.
Endangered species must be protected from renewable energy construction
16/02/2024
Gotta love it don’t you. They can report national CO2 emissions on a quarterly basis but try asking for a national report on the numbers of endangered species and this is what you get.
The Climate Change Authority doesn’t seem to know much or do much
09/02/2024
Climate change madness isn’t just killing the environment and your wallet.
Australia isn’t recording the biggest carbon offset (Phytoplankton)
07/02/2024
In research published today, we show that zooplankton, tiny animals near the base of the ocean food chain, are likely to be the biggest source of uncertainty in how we model the marine carbon cycle.
Will we be disadvantaged when calculating net zero models?
26/10/2023
Which model of the 40 models is the right model? The CSIRO can’t say. They just want us to trust them.
We need less inflation & more infrastructure
25/10/2023
In Estimates I asked Treasury why they are allowing building companies to go broke.

It’s created a behemoth bureaucracy that doesn’t even know what its own purpose is.
It would appear these bureaucrats are baffled by their own bs.
Is there a toxic chemical in wind turbine blades?
23/10/2023
Bisphenol A is an endocrine disrupter that has been linked to about 80 diseases including cancers and reproductive disorders. It is lethal for young children. In 2012, the World Health Organisation warned about the potentially carcinogenic properties of endocrine disrupters and concluded that they pose a global threat to public health.
