Sky News host Chris Smith says absolutist Greenies want to live in a climate change fairytale and refuse to accept the economic realities of energy demand in the world. Mr Smith said it was fair to accuse big businesses in Australia of pandering to the Green elites and the politically correct brigade in an attempt to garner public support. Mr Smith also applauded retiring BP CEO Bob Dudley for saying renewables would not be able to replace fossil fuels in the foreseeable future. The Sky News host said Mr Dudley was just telling it as it is. Until we have a massive technological breakthrough in battery storage, renewables cannot compete with coal or gas, Mr Smith said. It's time the climate moralists accepted these realities." Image: Getty Read More Our Apps
