Cracks Appear In Climate Consensus As Germany's Energy Minister Admits Renewables Are Ruining The Country
Authored by Tilak Doshi,
When Simon Wakter, Political Adviser to Sweden's Minister for Energy, posted on X last Wednesday with a simple “Wow, incredible article” and a clapping emoji, he captured the shock rippling through Europe's energy commentariat.
The target of his applause was not some fringe sceptic but Germany's own Economy and Energy Minister, Katherina Reiche.
In a guest column for the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, Reiche delivered a verdict that would have been career-ending heresy only a year ago: “One fact has been concealed for too long: an energy transition that ignores system costs will ruin the country it claims to save.” To anyone who has watched Germany's Energiewende — that totemic experiment in decarbonisation-by-decree — unfold like a slow-motion train wreck, Reiche's words land like a thunderclap from the Establishment itself.

Continuing Slump In Global Media Climate Agitprop Bodes Ill For Future Net Zero Support
Authored by Chris Morrison via THE DAILY SCEPTIC,
Decades of careful grooming of incurious journalists designed to whip up a non-existent climate emergency have failed to halt a dramatic continuing collapse in mainstream media stories backing the Net Zero fantasy. Last year saw a 14% global slump in climate-related stories compared to 2024, which was already 38% down on peak Greta hysteria in 2021. Perhaps there is only so long that once trusting consumers are prepared to read, let alone pay for identical, narrative-driven drivel that is often so one-sided that it is an insult to the intelligence. Exhibit 1: the BBC's October 2023 classic – Climate change could make beer taste worse.
The greatest declines over 2025 were found in Africa, the Middle East and North America. Interestingly, the failed Amazon COP30 meeting in November 2025 was followed the month after by coverage falling off a cliff in L...
