Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 19 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

The net-zero nut jobs are howling like banshees about the lack of liquid fuel. Hypocrisy amongst hydrocarbon haters is the new black.

Mandates and massive subsidies for chaotically delivered wind and solar, coupled with punitive … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 12 April 26

Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 15 March 2026

All of a sudden, for some strange reason, the anti-fossil fuel rhetoric has shifted. Whereas Greta and her gang of miserable human-haters have spent every waking hour demonising oil and gas as pure evil, as soon as hydrocarbons run short, a peculiar form of self-interested panic grips, and the narrative flips. Hard to fly around … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 15 March 2026

Spain’s 100% ‘reliance’ on wind and solar led to the World’s largest self-inflicted, total blackout, ever. Sure, wild winds and lightning will down power lines and plunge parts of a country into darkness. But, when sunset and/or benign, overcast weather are enough to sink an entire power grid, your obsession with intermittent wind and solar … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 15 February 2026

Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 1 February 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.

Which brings us … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 1 February 2026

When power unites with passion, the destruction of the US wind industry is what you get. President Donald J Trump has the power and hates these things with a passion. The knock-on effect across the globe - for wind power outfits, construction companies and turbine makers - has been utterly devastating.

Slash the massive subsidies and the so-called wind and solar ‘industries’ would disappear in a heartbeat. The chaotic delivery of part-time power has never made any sense.

Donald J Trump made it very plain that he hated the wind industry and he is making good on his promise to destroy it, piece, by subsidised piece.
