Ian Plimer

Gold has been the mainstay for economies for millennia.

And joining me right now in the studio, friend of the program, Professor Ian Plimer, one of Australia's most prominent earth science academics.

He's a mining veteran, he's an author, and Ian, you're never afraid really to stir the pot on anything, are you?

No, but you didn't mention I'm a man of many parts.

That's-

So it's incredible how international finance has benefited from Mount Morgan.

You look like you've actually really enjoyed putting this book together, Everything You Need to Know About Gold, Ian Plimer, and, and I know you're doing book signings around Southeast Queensland, so it's great to see.

But be- be- before you go, it would be wrong of me to not say to you that all the years you've been railing against this whole international climate hoax, con, whatever you wanna call it, maybe you were right all along, Ian.

My panel will cover that and the day's other top headlines.

Could the NT supply the entire country with gas for centuries? Professor Ian Plimer will share his thoughts on that.

Josh Hammer will have the latest from the US, including the hard left ideologues who want to regulate AI.

And more details about the lone holdout juror in the Lindsay Clancy murder trial.

The Northern Territory has enough gas to supply the whole of Australia for the next 200 years

Absolutely, and it's coming out of the Beetaloo as we speak.

The problem with that is that we need it to get to the rest of the country Joining me now is esteemed geologist, author, and executive director at Hancock Energy, Professor Ian Plimer.

Ian, does the NT have enough gas to supply the whole country for decades, perhaps centuries?

In the newsletter, we also continue our Canary in a Climate World series by rolling our eyes at the taunt that so-and-so is not a climate scientist, not least because many darlings of the climate movement aren't either, from Al Gore to Greta Thunberg.

But we also roll our eyes because alarmists tend to dismiss people who actually have directly relevant training, people like Professor Ian Plimer, even though, or perhaps because, he's a geologist, deeply versed in the physical processes that have shaped the Earth's surface and its atmosphere over its long history.

And we're talking about nonstop changes over hundreds of millions of years that refute simplistic CO2-driven explanations and the obsession with humans' alleged environmental sins.

Which prompts Plimer to ask this critical question about known ocean warmings.
