Sky News host Chris Kenny says the “doom and gloom” and “apocalyptic foreboding” from “Greta Thunberg and other climate catastrophists is spreading”.

Mr Kenny said “celebrating our successes and encouraging optimism is out of fashion” after President Trump called on world leaders to "reject" the "perennial prophets of doom” at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland.

Climate activist Greta Thunberg also spoke, calling on all business and government leaders to forget attempting to achieve "net" zero emissions and to aggressively seek "real" zero emissions. Ms Kenny said “the zeitgeist now is all about the end of the world,” and “apparently we should all be alarmed, worried, nervous about the fate of the world”.

Chris Kenny is a bumbling fool who is outdated & irrelevant. has indulged their anti-climate-change fetish with these irrelevant fossils who are nothing more than intellectual midgets. Time to move with the times & get real rupertmurdoch ClimateChangeIsReal

Old Greta ThumbleBum at it again! Nasty little piece of work she is!

What a nasty piece of work this naive person is.

What a dreadful expression on her face. A lost childhood.

Hey Sky My take got more likes that yours. Nyahh nyahh nyahh.

I'm surprised that his vocabulary stretched to a word that long 🤣

Who is this Chris Kenny bloke? He's not related to Chris Kenny the dog fucker by any chance is he?

Who is Chris Kenny? What qualifications does he hold?

I remember when Chris Kenny would write about sensible economic policy, Effective government, insight on factions etc. now days, just madness

Are you happy to live in a world where the koala, platypus and lyrebird are only in the past? I'm not. But please, continue doing 'The Kenny Report'.

Did you mean the truth is spreading?

It’s funny how all the science deniers (Kenny, Bolt et al) will be real keen to get there hands on some science when Coronavirus comes their way.

That's not news It's opinion And the weighting of the wording here and in the tweet is f*****g disgusting. They're right to be worried, and Chris Kenny is a narrow-minded fool.

Well that is good news, maybe if enough people believe the science we have a chance for my grandkids to live on an inhabitable planet

What's wrong with telling the truth? More dipstick climate science deniers who believe that the moon landing was faked and 'The Rapture' is on its way. 🔥🔥🙀⛈🔥🔥🌪🌊🌏🦖🦖🦖🦖🦖🦖🦖🦖🦖

Watch & see Monty Pythonesque Skynews & Morrison on climate change

But only, because there are to many silly and uneducated people in Europe.

That's good news

You'd think he would follow current affairs MorrisonFires

We can't ignore what's happening with the climate. What do we have to lose by living cleaner

The Greta helpline is perfect for this sad old man. His time is up and he's scared. It's ok Chris, you can talk to someone.

Well how about we just don't give anything she says time of day. Adults who take fairytales on board are seriously deficient.

There’s a reason it’s spreading numbnuts.

Sky News , as far as I can tell , is well-cooked shit

People trusting science? Next thing you know people will risk their lives on those flying metal birds, or go to the doctor when they get cancer! It's an outrage!

Yeah imagine having ‘apocalyptic foreboding’, everything’s fine lol

The 'climate catastrophists' are the ones trying to save the planet for when all the old fogies, like media empire owners & execs, & old politicians, are dead... When the latter are only remembered as ClimateCriminal s who failed to act. The science is clear.

Doom & Gloom. Murdoch Sky News stock in trade - some episodes of such include : Iraq WMD. Stop the Boats. Economy wrecking : Mining Tax CPRS FTTH NBN Penalty rates Renewable energy Auto manufacturing industry Murray Darling Plan Difference is scientists vs News Corp Trolls

Would that be because it’s actually real, it’s actually happening?

EnoughOfGreta it is an insult to the intelligence of the world

'Doctor they're waking up!' 'More Anesthesia, Stat!'

She has so much hate in her face

Chris 👇 Please know that there are support groups for you.

So..? The Chris Kenny that gets his panties in a twist daily about something that was aired on the ABC he didn’t like? That Chris Kenny?

Ignore this ignorant child she does not speak for everyone.

People acknowledging reality? I know - it's very frightening for Chris - perhaps he should have a lie down and let the sane people sort it out.

Spreading because power and money corrupts and with all bowing to the UN`s + cohorts corruption except for Trump the rest are gutless in what to do or to take on the UN regardless of the voice of our countries. Followers seem to get the bigger voice.

Chris Kenny would say that. His life is a script.

FatherBob So sad that Greta sees the world as such a dark place one day she will wake up and reflect on all the things she missed, it's true'youth is wasted on the young'

And Kenny says that like it's a bad thing. Oh I forgot. Ask how old he is.

If more people are getting it, in spite of your efforts SkyNews, that's excellent news. One day, you might get it too.

I haven’t listened to a word she has ever said, bit am pretty confident if she was asked some specific questions she couldn’t answer them or just reply “that’s what scientists say”

Spreading almost like wildfire

Any idiot that believes hysterical teens has serious problems.

I hope so. Time that people realised that action is needed

Climate scientists, climate scientists are predicting disastrous things based on disastrous things happening. They've been absolutely vindicated. Now they have to deal with manmade pillocks like you lot pretending nothing is happening and undermining the change we need.

She’s a bloody legend, Kenny is not!

FatherBob Climate catastrophists are not spreading, climate deniers are becoming extinct like the dinosaurs

plo5664

FatherBob Murdoch propaganda- don’t drink the Murdoch Cool-Aid folks.

FatherBob The doom and gloom come from experiencing the real world consequences of ClimateChange . GretaThunberg is a beacon of hope in the midst of mass disinformation coming from self interested deniers like Kenny. ClimateEmergency

Kenny is a fuckwit Murdochracypuppet

It’s just as well that someone is speaking the truth to the powers that be. They do seem very “head in the sand” types. Go Greta!!!

But there is this thing... Greta Thunberg is correct, this is a crisis!

Wow... the teenager might be taking you down, SlyNews.

Still at it!

the doom and gloom news.

I'm concerned that you deliberately choose unflattering photos of Greta. But luckily Sky News reports don't spread. No one's listening to you! he he

Can’t wait till Greta goes to China &tells the them to stop using coal Maybe some of her supporters can go with her I’m sure the Chinese government will listen to her BTW what’s her call on substitute energy sources besides subsidized wind & solar we accept the problem solution?

I'm concerned that more people are choosing margarine over butter. And it seems to be spreading.

Kenny is not terribly observant

I want to see more action on climate change. But Greta herself said 2 days ago the world's government's are doing notihing. In my opinion the doom & gloom speeches & protests are not working, the majority are not listening. They need to try something else, not sure what.

Arrest these Terrorists A minority are trying to force majority to submit to their demands through methods that infringe on rights of others newscomauHQ ScottMorrisonMP SBSNews guardiannews DailyMailAU MomentsAU canberratimes 2GB873 smh abcnews

Good

idiot

the new cancer no cure

It isn't this girl you should focus on. Its the Liberal 'moderates' in Coalition electorates 😅

Funny that. When drought, fire, flood, hail, and mud rain all happen in very close proximity in a very small space of time that may speak for itself.

What else besides climate change, science and reality are you in denial about Chris...? Sounds like you need a hug. RUOK?

Ahh who cares. All this “doom and gloom”, “apocalyptic foreboding” and “climate catastrophists“ should be enough to prevent a doom and gloom apocalyptic catastrophe anyway. Don’t stress Chris. I have a feeling it’s going to be OK.

Unlike the views of Chris Kenny. Anything else you can do to earn a dollar Chris?

Yes, more people are coming to understand the science. It’s only people like Chris Kenny left behind.

Well Chris Kenny why don’t you listen to our youth our future

Sydney yesterday geniuses

Nothing is More Depressing than Chris Kenny!

Fancy listening to a kid peddling this climate rubbish, the world has gone mad

Weeds are easier to pull out once they achieve a certain size.

Finally! Hopefully we can start doing something soon.

So it should. The world is screwed from over population and rubbish and pollution..

Cretins.

Not bloody fast enough. By the time the deniers realise that the 'doom and gloom' was an accurate assessment of the situation they'll be screaming to know why they 'didn't know about this' sooner. I hope my grandkids sue them into penury.

I wonder who is paying Greta's travel bill for these trips around the world.

Another fear monger who likes smelling her own vomit. It began with fear of earth quakes, volcanos erupting, fire breathing dragons over the hill, witches among us, religion, Russians, terrorism, financial crisis, Trump, Iran, viruses, now Greta. All about control of the people.

Maybe just put the carbon tax back. Then you wont have to deal with it Kenny. Or maybe it doesnt bother you that much.

Can the ClimateChangeBedwetters just drink the Kool-Aid so the rest of us can get on with life - enjoying the planet in its latest interglacial warm period.

Well it looked pretty gloomy in Sydney over Xmas and New Year and it’s was pretty doom-inducing if you had respiratory issues. Must be pretty nice inside the Sky Dome

Interesting that Murdoch media always use the same picture of Greta!

Trump said it all.

The fact that people are being led by the nose and are completely ignorant of the fact is astounding...

It's becoming the NORM to think the End Is Coming

To quote Kenny himself, the inanity.

Excellent!

Of course it's spreading. That's the whole idea.

Anyone who talks this much about a teenage girl should be locked up

Bugger off ClimateCriminals.

Why does Kenny have such a pathological hatred of this child?

Suck of this bloody serial pest

The face of hate and negativity, I feel so sorry for her. Her parents should be ashamed to let her go through this.

go back to school and tell ya parents to shutup

Kids these days are smart. If they are wrong what do we lose Let’s listen 👍

Hey - while we recognise that modern employers need to support their staff, maybe there's better ways to help Chis Kenny deal with his GretaThunberg complex. There are plenty of middle aged white conservative blokes who resent her profile, but counselling can help.

She should grow up...but her parents are making a fortune out of her...feel sorry for her....she will regret this one day...if she survives!

What an amazing insight. I'm sure it will come real handy when I run out of toilet paper.

ECO ANXIETY amongst children is on the rise because of alarmist claims made by Greta & many like her. Greta herself is arguably a victim of intellectual abuse. Now we have children experiencing nightmares because the end of the world is nigh.

Sick of if it in the UK. They caused 37 million pounds of damage to London protesting, biggest hoax ever.

😂😂😂

Maybe people are getting the message at last (apart from the Murdoch commentariat)

Flannery still making predictions one day he will be right

Imagine a grown adult being triggered by a child. Keep it up GretaThunberg

Poor child, and she is only a child, she thinks she is helping by promoting the views she has been vigorously taught by her superiors.

Chris Kenny parroting his orange hero

Just landed here from Mars. Who is this Greta girl, school truant, blames world leaders, not parents for lost childhood and screams 'how dare you'. If my 16yr opd daughter went round yelling 'how dare you' i'd .... you fill in the blanks.

The indoctrination of the gullible masses.

👍

Unprecedented bushfire season, golf ball sized hail stones and mud in our rain all within the space of a few weeks. No worries Chris! We're right mate🙄

Real and getting worse

Greta is only saying what science is trying to tell us. Tweet should read: Chris Kenny says “doom and gloom”.... from every relevant science institution and university on the planet is spreading.

gosh... That wouldn't be due to the science being right? nah...

Who is Chris Kenny?

Maybe it’s because things actually are getting worse, Chris

I’d love it if GretaThunberg challenged Chris Kenny to a debate on a neutral broadcaster. I think she’d leaving him crying like a little old entitled white guy. Although such an action really would be a waste of Greta’s time.

Chris “I’m a scientist and I know best” Kenny...

Is “climate catastrophists” your way of dismissing the threat posed by a changing climate? auspol
