Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 8 March 2026

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

Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 22 February 2026

China’s industrial dominance is built on cheap, reliable and abundant coal-fired power. Sure, the CCP presents itself as a champion of wind and solar. Except, that it is way more interested in flogging wind turbines and solar panels to the Western economies it’s setting out to weaken and overtake, then it is on attempting to … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 22 February 2026

Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 2 November 2025

The ‘feelgood’ net-zero emissions narrative has been shielding wind and solar scammers from proper scrutiny for years. With that narrative in political tatters, panicked rent seekers are running for cover. The great unwashed are now alive to the staggering cost and pointless benefits (never properly defined) of cutting man-made carbon oxide gas emissions - purportedly … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 2 November 2025

Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 26 October 2025

In the USA, wholesale carnage across the entire wind industry apace. While Donald J Trump can take his fair share of the credit, rocketing costs and anxious investors are doing their bit to bring the great wind power fraud to its knees. Which brings us to this week’s roundup, with Irina Slav reporting on yet … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 26 October 2025

Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 12 October 2025

The offshore wind industry has as much chance of recovering as the dodo and the woolly mammoth. Donald Trump’s obliteration of America’s offshore wind industry is gathering pace. And with dozens of projects worth $billions in capital expenditure being quietly scrapped, offshore wind construction outfits and turbine manufacturers face financial annihilation. Which brings us to … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 12 October 2025

Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 27 July 2025

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. And the world is waking up to that unassailable fact. Which brings us to this week’s roundup, starting the team from Jo Nova reporting on BP’s moment of … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 27 July 2025

Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 2 March 2025

With Donald J Trump telling the wind industry that America’s “not gonna do the wind thing” anymore, the wind industry is practically terminal and faces a looming Armageddon, across the globe. The Great Disruptor has completely rattled the Climate Industrial Complex, with a particular (and perfectly understandable) hatred of the great wind power scam playing … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 2 March 2025

Energy Essentials: Why Modern Civilisation Critically Depends On Coal, Oil & Gas

In a world where humans are regarded as cockroaches and wilful ignorance a winning virtue, it’s little wonder that misanthropes in the West hate everything about coal, oil and gas. Except the myriad benefits that they bring. You won’t find the same attitudes being expressed in India, China and Indonesia - where hydrocarbons are dragging … Continue reading Energy Essentials: Why Modern Civilisation Critically Depends On Coal, Oil & Gas

Life Support: Coal-Fired Power Plants Only Thing Keeping the Lights On

Thanks to their chaotic intermittency, any increase in wind and solar capacity brings with it their capacity to bring down whole power grids. In Australia, the only thing preventing a total system black are its remaining coal-fired power plants. The very plants that the massive subsidies, punitive mandates and ludicrous wind and solar targets are … Continue reading Life Support: Coal-Fired Power Plants Only Thing Keeping the Lights On

Energy Numbers: Decades of Data Detail Wind & Solar’s Pathetic Performance

There’s something altogether pathetic about those that push wind and solar as the path to an energy Utopia. A place where unicorns, fairies and pixies are in charge and numbers get treated with contempt. Numbers such as those collected by Frances Menton and Robert Bryce in the pieces below. Numbers that demonstrate that, after almost … Continue reading Energy Numbers: Decades of Data Detail Wind & Solar’s Pathetic Performance
