Vladimir Putin’s march across Ukraine has wrecked plans to slash man-made carbon oxide gas emissions with net-zero targets. Remember a month or so back, when the most pressing challenge was the apparent need to tame global weather using endless subsidies for billions more solar panels and millions more giant industrial wind turbines? When fossil fuels … Continue reading International Climate Changed: Putin’s War Destroys Great ‘Green’ Energy Reset

No Nonsense Solution: Nuclear Ultimate Answer to Powering an Energy Hungry World
Nothing focuses thinking on energy policy like not having heat, light and power on tap. With Europe now hostage to its aggressive Eastern neighbour - thanks to a maniacal obsession with intermittent wind and solar and the need to back it up with oil and gas - policy wonks of all descriptions have started talking … Continue reading No Nonsense Solution: Nuclear Ultimate Answer to Powering an Energy Hungry World
Old King Coal Trumps Wind & Solar: In An Energy Starved World the Black Stuff Still Rules
Wind and solar advocates keep carping that ‘coal is dead’, as if thermal power generation had gone the same way as the dodo and flared trousers. This wouldn't be the first time an obituary has been published way too early. Mark Twain noted that reports of his death had been greatly exaggerated. So too, coal-fired … Continue reading Old King Coal Trumps Wind & Solar: In An Energy Starved World the Black Stuff Still Rules
Russia’s Ukrainian Invasion Equation: Europe Ditches Wind & Solar Transition
Like a jilted bride, wind and solar have lost all love and favour as Europe scrambles for reliable and affordable energy. Now it seems that the only inevitable thing about the ‘inevitable transition’ is that when people are forced to choose between electricity delivered reliably and affordably and the purportedly clean and green kind, they … Continue reading Russia’s Ukrainian Invasion Equation: Europe Ditches Wind & Solar Transition
RE-Volt: Greeks Sue Wind Developers for Nightly Wind Turbine Noise Torture
If you’re looking for litigious trouble, spear a few giant industrial wind turbines in someone’s backyard and you’ll soon find it. Americans have made suing wind developers for noise nuisance a national pastime. Now the Greeks are getting in on the act. Hélène Colliopoulou details the fury that’s led to locals lawyering up and suing … Continue reading RE-Volt: Greeks Sue Wind Developers for Nightly Wind Turbine Noise Torture
Green Dream Delivers Daily Reality: Power Rationing, Blackouts & Rocketing Power Bills
In the fantasy land occupied by green dreamers, the wind is always blowing and the sun is always shining. Not for them the reality of sunset and calm weather. It’s their truth, and they’re sticking with it. Destabilising grids and power markets, chaotically intermittent and heavily subsidised wind and solar may be beloved of crony … Continue reading Green Dream Delivers Daily Reality: Power Rationing, Blackouts & Rocketing Power Bills
Green Civil War: Grassroots Environmental Groups Turn On Wind & Solar ‘Industries’
The faux environmentalist is easy to spot: they love industrial wind and solar power and couldn’t care less about the unbridalled environmental destruction they cause. Faced with the rampant slaughter of birds and bats, he or she initially denies the evidence and then pushes the moral equivalence button, claiming that more birds are killed by … Continue reading Green Civil War: Grassroots Environmental Groups Turn On Wind & Solar ‘Industries’
No End Date For Coal & Nuclear: Gas Crunch Drives Germany’s Grand Renewables Backflip
A month or so back, Germany’s green-infested government was talking up the end of coal and nuclear power plants; the last phase in its ‘inevitable’ transition to an all wind and sun-powered future, as the wind and sun cult would have it. Well. That was then, this is now. With the squeeze on Russian gas … Continue reading No End Date For Coal & Nuclear: Gas Crunch Drives Germany’s Grand Renewables Backflip
How The Wind Industry Propaganda Machine Smears Its Community Based Opponents

True enough, corporates of all descriptions are adept at manipulating the message to advance their interests. But the wind industry and its political enablers operate at a whole different level. The strategies are … Continue reading How The Wind Industry Propaganda Machine Smears Its Community Based Opponents
Power Price Punishment: Cost of Subsidised Wind & Solar Killing Productive Industry & Enterprise
Reliance on intermittent wind and solar guarantees rocketing power prices and chaotic supply. Price spikes and/or power rationing when the sun sets or calm weather sets in are the death knell for a range of energy-hungry businesses and industries. Manufacturing and mineral processing are usually the first to disappear, when the true costs of running … Continue reading Power Price Punishment: Cost of Subsidised Wind & Solar Killing Productive Industry & Enterprise
