Sky News host Chris Kenny says the "easy way to endear yourselves to virtue-signallers" and the green-left is to "play their game of feeding into climate change alarmism". NSW Environment Minister Matt Kean has linked this year's bushfire crisis to climate change.
"This is despite the fact the reason fires are bad this year is because of the drought - one of the worst on record," Mr Kenny said. "And despite analysis from climate change experts that the drought cannot be directly linked to climate change." Mr Kenny said whether it is Matt Kean or Malcolm Turnbull or Adam Bandt or Greta Thunberg, he could not see "point of their hysteria".
