The secret to destroying an economy from within starts by wrecking energy supplies and there’s no better wrecking ball than subsidised wind and solar. Insanely costly and chaotically delivered, occasional electricity guarantees shrinking supply and escalating prices. If de-industrialisation is the target, wind and solar provide the perfect ammo. Which brings us to this week’s … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 14 June 2026

Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 7 June 2026
Whereas the onshore wind ‘industry’ is touched with an insanity all its own, taking these things offshore is positively bonkers. The massive cost of construction and routine maintenance skyrockets when these things get speared into the ocean floor, left to corrode in a brutal marine environment. The inherent chaos involved with delivering electricity entirely dependent … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 7 June 2026

The inevitable disintegration of wind turbines and solar panels provides the perfect example of entropy: inherent disorder, randomness and chaos - all bundled up with the destruction of reliable power supplies and the desecration of pristine environments and/or productive farmland. On that score - for wind and solar scammers - it’s a case of ‘so … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 24 May 2026

History will punish those who encouraged a bunch of rent-seeking psychopaths to destroy Western energy independence, peace and prosperity. Once upon a time in Australia soldiers, sheep-shearers, engineers and business leaders occupied the Treasury benches. These days it’s career politicians: Arts grads who started out as political advisers destined for a Parliament now dominated by … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 3 May 2026

South Australia and South Africa share the same maniacal obsession with chaotically intermittent and heavily subsidised wind and solar. South Australia and South Africa also share the same crushing power prices that have destroyed industry and punish households and families. They also deliberately set out to destroy coal-fired power generation systems that had kept the … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 26 April 26

For the best part of 30 years, rent-seeking wind and solar outfits have claimed their (occasionally delivered) products are the cheapest around. Always overlooking the hundreds of billions of dollars in subsidies and the benefits of punitive mandates and targets in their favour. However, whenever talk turns to cutting those subsidies or removing the mandates … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 19 April 26

Those few sorry souls still peddling the myth of the grand wind and solar ‘transition’ are either ignorant to the point of delusion or they’re in on it. In 2026, with electricity grids across the West being destroyed by suicidal so-called ‘energy policies’, neither can be forgiven for mere ineptitude or self-interested greed. Western civilisation … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 8 March 2026

Mandates, targets and subsidies to wind and solar have wrecked power markets, preventing nuclear power generation from doing what it does best: delivering safe, reliable and affordable power around-the-clock, whatever the weather. The wind and sun cult rant about the cost of nuclear, but avoid details the colossal pricetag of attempting to run on sunshine … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 1 March 2026

Every single country that embraced chaotically intermittent and heavily subsidised wind and solar is suffering from out-of-control power prices. No exceptions. Not one. The harder and faster they went, the more sudden the inevitable power pricing and supply calamity that follows. Germany, California, Denmark, South Australia are just the most obvious examples. Which brings us … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 1 February 2026

2026 will go down in history as the moment when sanity finally returned to energy policy across the globe. The big switch started in the USA, where the turnaround is being driven by a man who hates these things with a passion. The Germans and Danes led the charge with their suicidal subsidised wind and … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 11 January 2026
