Sky News host Chris Kenny says Channel Ten's The Project,” is “unashamedly woke, pitching its program and what it calls news at the young, and presumably, the ill-informed". Mr Kenny referenced a recent report by Waleed Aly where the host presented Germany “as an exemplar on climate change action and sensible, efficient energy policies”. In comparison, Australia was contrasted as a country that isn’t “doing anything” on the issue of climate change.

Mr Kenny referenced recently released reports that “shows German electricity prices are the highest of the major world economies at 34c a kilowatt hour”. He argued this is 41 per cent higher than Australia at 24 cents per kilowatt hour and 126 per cent higher than the United States. “Waleed Aly and The Project say we should be emulating the wonderful climate action success story of Germany".
