News24 host Rowan Dean criticised a recent High Court decision that halted the development of a coal mine, arguing it reflects the broader "madness" of global climate agreements. “The High Court decision during the week basically put a brake, a handbrake, on the development of a coal mine on the basis that they hadn't gone to scope," Mr Dean said. “It's all part of the entire madness of things like the Paris Agreement, which is this whole structure built up around, well, if you're digging up coal here, but you're selling it overseas, and they're burning it, those emissions … it's all rubbish in my opinion. “It's madness; it's emissions insanity."
