Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is the Green-left’s favourite flibbertigibbet. Her New Green Deal, with its promise of 100% wind and solar delivering power for all, for free and for all time, should have been dismissed as fairytale nonsense, long ago. However, there are plenty of pixie dream girls and boys happy to suck it up, like there’s … Continue reading Why Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s ‘New Green Deal’ is a New Dark Ages Nightmare

Blown Away: Australians Reject Labor’s 50% RET & Plans for Giant Wind & Solar Roll-out
Bill Shorten’ 45% CO2 emissions reduction target and his 50% Renewable Energy Target was meant to deliver a Labor landslide. It didn’t. Bill Shorten and his acolytes believed that Australian voters would flock to his grand - ‘save the planet’ - plans for sunshine and breezes. Their propaganda wing, GetUp! made it seem like … Continue reading Blown Away: Australians Reject Labor’s 50% RET & Plans for Giant Wind & Solar Roll-out
Dancin’ With the Devil: 100% Wind & Solar Targets = Guaranteed Economic & Social Catastrophe
Delusional and dangerous, sums up those peddling 100% wind and solar targets. No country on earth has ever powered itself entirely using sunshine and breezes. And no country ever will. Sunset and calm weather are real things. On the other hand, mega-batteries are a mixture of myth and nonsense. At the margins, technically possible. But, … Continue reading Dancin’ With the Devil: 100% Wind & Solar Targets = Guaranteed Economic & Social Catastrophe
Irony Overdrive: Climate Alarmists Hate Burning Coal But Love Burning Up Entire Forests
Now that climate alarmists have hijacked energy policy, insanity is generally the order of the day. Claiming that, one day soon, we’ll all be powered by sunshine and breezes is just the beginning. On the one hand, zealots fly into an apoplectic rage when anyone mentions the prospect of using what were once ancient forests … Continue reading Irony Overdrive: Climate Alarmists Hate Burning Coal But Love Burning Up Entire Forests
Shorten’s Green/Labor Alliance: The Electricity ‘Bill’ Australia Simply Cannot Afford
Voters ought to think twice before installing a Green/Labor Alliance unless their objective is to destroy Australia’s prosperity, for good. The modern Labor Party, led by Bill ‘Shifty’ Shorten, is almost unrecognisable from its roots as a party born on the back of a sheep-shearer’s strike in Queensland in the 1890s. These days, it … Continue reading Shorten’s Green/Labor Alliance: The Electricity ‘Bill’ Australia Simply Cannot Afford
‘Clean’ Energy Kaput: Germany’s ‘Inevitable’ Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ An Inevitable & Total Failure
Germany is the world leader when it comes to wind and solar and worth following, if you’re keen to return to the Dark Ages. Germans suffer Europe’s highest power prices - right up there with wind ‘powered’ Denmark and just behind South Australia, Australia’s wind and solar capital - which tops the list. Its so-called … Continue reading ‘Clean’ Energy Kaput: Germany’s ‘Inevitable’ Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ An Inevitable & Total Failure
Renewables Retribution: Spiralling Power Prices Punish Poorest & Most Vulnerable
The relationship between rocketing power prices and intermittent wind and solar is pretty obvious. Just ask a South Australian, German or Dane. The USA is a relative Johnny come lately to the RE obsession bandwagon. There are a couple of obvious exceptions, namely Texas and California. But among the other 50 states, the wind and … Continue reading Renewables Retribution: Spiralling Power Prices Punish Poorest & Most Vulnerable
Seriously Shortchanged: Germans to Squander €4.6 Trillion on Intermittent Wind & Solar – Get 2.5% of Their Energy In Return
If the recent and idiotic obsession with intermittent wind and solar needed a pinup girl, it would have to be Germany. No country has squandered more treasure on giant windmills and an endless sea of solar panels. For all that wanton environmental destruction, Germans get a meagre 2.5% of their primary energy demand satisfied by … Continue reading Seriously Shortchanged: Germans to Squander €4.6 Trillion on Intermittent Wind & Solar – Get 2.5% of Their Energy In Return
No Road Back: Obsession with Intermittent Renewables Causes Monster Power Price Surge
Thanks to coal-fired power, Australia once enjoyed the world’s most reliable and affordable power supply. Not anymore. An obsession with wind and solar - expressed in the form of $70 billion in subsidies, $billions more in government underwritten soft-loans and mandated targets, backed up with punitive fines has sent power prices into orbit. The … Continue reading No Road Back: Obsession with Intermittent Renewables Causes Monster Power Price Surge
Wind Industry Meltdown: North Carolina Set to Slap Total Ban On All New Wind Projects
Wind power projects are at a standstill in North Carolina, following an 18-month moratorium on new wind projects. That ban practically crushed one project that an outfit called Apex Clean Energy had planned for Chowan County. Now, legislation is working its way through North Carolina’s legislature that would result in a total ban on new … Continue reading Wind Industry Meltdown: North Carolina Set to Slap Total Ban On All New Wind Projects
