Fishermen Unite to Prevent Offshore Wind Industry Wrecking Marine Ecosystems

Fishermen, whose livelihoods depend on the sea, have turned on the offshore wind industry with a vengeance. Along America’s Atlantic coast trawlermen and lobster fishers are as one in their hatred of the offshore wind power scam. Not least because of the damage that it is doing to the fishing grounds which they have sought … Continue reading Fishermen Unite to Prevent Offshore Wind Industry Wrecking Marine Ecosystems

Missed Target: No Way Wind & Solar Can Meet (Pointless) Net-Zero CO2 Target

The Soviet 5-year-plan was all about ludicrous ambitions that the Proles duly defied and likewise defied reality. So it is with so-called ‘net-zero carbon dioxide gas emissions targets’. Big talk about pointless objects is easy enough, but, at some stage the punters start asking when those objects might be met. And when they’re rebuffed, they … Continue reading Missed Target: No Way Wind & Solar Can Meet (Pointless) Net-Zero CO2 Target

Resistance Is Futile: Net-Zero CO2 Targets Can Only Be Met With Nuclear Power

The fact that those pushing net-zero emissions targets aren’t talking seriously about nuclear power, says it all. If energy policy is left in the hands of the wind and sun cult - and other weather-obsessed lunatics - it won't be long before we’re all left sitting freezing or boiling in the dark. Those with financial … Continue reading Resistance Is Futile: Net-Zero CO2 Targets Can Only Be Met With Nuclear Power

Not So Bright Spark: Grand Renewable Energy ‘Battery’ Plan Runs Flat

Hubris drives the so-called wind and solar ‘transition’, which now depends upon the myth of giant batteries compensating for the vagaries of the weather and sunset. These mythical batteries come in all shapes and sizes and with enough added hyperbole have grown to include the entire island state of Tasmania. Touted with the rent-seeking classes’ … Continue reading Not So Bright Spark: Grand Renewable Energy ‘Battery’ Plan Runs Flat

Following California’s Renewable Energy Lead Guarantees Rocketing Power Prices & Blackouts

In their sillier moments, the wind and sun cult point to places like California or Germany as prime examples of energy Nirvana. Then come the facts. California and Germany have most certainly led the charge in backing heavily subsidised and chaotically intermittent wind and solar, but they’ve also led the charge on rocketing power prices … Continue reading Following California’s Renewable Energy Lead Guarantees Rocketing Power Prices & Blackouts

Why Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Spells Inevitable Environmental Disaster

Spearing thousands of wind turbines into rural communities and carpeting them with endless seas of solar panels is only just the beginning. To connect those hopelessly intermittent power sources to market requires thousands of (otherwise unnecessary) kilometres of additional transmission lines. All of that environmental destruction could have readily been avoided had Australia simply maintained … Continue reading Why Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Spells Inevitable Environmental Disaster

Vale Bill Quinn: Australia’s Most Fearless Anti-Wind Power Fraud Warrior

William Laurence Quinn passed on this week, leaving a legacy to all those aiming to protect their communities from the great wind power fraud. Bill left us last Tuesday, 15 August 2023. He was admitted to the Burra Hospital in the Mid-North of South Australia, where he was born on 31 May 1956 and died … Continue reading Vale Bill Quinn: Australia’s Most Fearless Anti-Wind Power Fraud Warrior

Last Chance Saloon: Nuclear Shift Offers Best Hope For Affordable & Reliable Power

Without doubt, coal-fired power remains the cheapest and most reliable form of power generation, bar none. Which is why hundreds of new plants are being built across China, India, Indonesia and elsewhere in Asia. However, in Australia, and elsewhere in the deindustrialising West, coal-fired power has been declared public enemy number one by a cult … Continue reading Last Chance Saloon: Nuclear Shift Offers Best Hope For Affordable & Reliable Power

Delusional Groupthink Drives Obsession With Chaotically Intermittent Wind & Solar

As in life, government policy is about trade-offs, which usually means plumping for the good rather than the perfect. However, in the de-industrialising West, energy policy is all about rejecting the good in favour of the unworkable. The notion that weather-dependent wind, and weather and sunshine-dependent solar (with or without pumped hydro or mythical mega-batteries) … Continue reading Delusional Groupthink Drives Obsession With Chaotically Intermittent Wind & Solar

Always Cheap & Ever-Reliable Coal-Fired Power Preventing Australian Grid Collapse

The wind and sun cult never admit it, but if it weren’t for coal-fired power Australia’s grid would have collapsed, long ago. Chugging away for the best part of a century, Australia’s coal-fired plants continue to provide power reliably, on demand, whatever the weather. No need for batteries, no need for back up. And, as … Continue reading Always Cheap & Ever-Reliable Coal-Fired Power Preventing Australian Grid Collapse
