The Electric Vehicle crowd are struggling to deflect attention from the disastrous environmental impacts caused by their shiny new Teslas. Wedded to their own virtuous piety, EV owners evidently ignore the hypocrisy that sits at the heart of every EV: a lithium-ion battery. The lithium-ion battery, whether it’s used to power an all-EV or as … Continue reading Environmental Insensitivity: Electric Vehicles Driven By Moral Piety & Gross Hypocrisy

China’s & India’s Coal-Fired Power Push Ignores West’s Suicidal Wind & Solar Embrace
China and India are building coal-fired and nuclear power plants, hand over fist. Their rapid economic development hinges on access to reliable and cheap power to industry. Meanwhile, the West maintains its positively suicidal obsession with subsidised wind and solar. Whereas China profits handsomely - selling millions of solar panels made by Uighur slaves and … Continue reading China’s & India’s Coal-Fired Power Push Ignores West’s Suicidal Wind & Solar Embrace
Sick Joke: Nothing ‘Green’ About California’s All Electric Vehicle Mandates
There’s nothing wrong in theory about all-Electric Vehicles. But, if they really were a sensible substitute for petrol or diesel-powered vehicles, they’d already be jumping off the shelves. Except, for some strange reason, they aren’t. There’s plenty of irony attached to the all-EV cult: the world’s largest EV charging station is run entirely using diesel … Continue reading Sick Joke: Nothing ‘Green’ About California’s All Electric Vehicle Mandates
Colorado Catastrophe: 100% Wind & Solar Plan Guarantees Blackouts & Crippling Prices
In another case of ‘you know it’s a cult when’, Colorado’s Governor is pushing a delusional 100% wind and solar target. Ignoring the fact that there isn’t a state or country on earth that has ever powered itself entirely with wind and solar; ignoring the fact that every state or country that’s tried is suffering … Continue reading Colorado Catastrophe: 100% Wind & Solar Plan Guarantees Blackouts & Crippling Prices
No Honour Among New Breed of ‘Green’ Copper Thieves: EV Chargers ‘Prime Targets’
The copper in EV chargers is now a prime target for thieves: the copper is worth a packet and the chargers are easily accessible, with more being added to city streets every day. Across America ripping the copper from EV chargers - and the cables used by householders to charge their Teslas - is now … Continue reading No Honour Among New Breed of ‘Green’ Copper Thieves: EV Chargers ‘Prime Targets’
Unscheduled Battery Blowups Turning Electric Vehicles Into Mobile Time Bombs
The transition to electric vehicles is hardly going to plan: sales have collapsed in the US, EV manufacturers are bleeding cash and insurers are cranking up premiums to account for an uptick in the number of unscheduled battery blowups – aka ‘thermal runaways’. The vehicle doesn’t go anywhere, it simply self-immolates in a plume of … Continue reading Unscheduled Battery Blowups Turning Electric Vehicles Into Mobile Time Bombs
Diesel-Driven: Electric Car Charging Stations Powered by Giant Banks of Diesel Generators
While wind and solar advocates reckon we’ll all soon be driving electric vehicles charged up using sunshine and breezes, it’s ‘dirty’ old diesel that’s doing all the hard work. In Australia, those seemingly virtuous souls with EVs are really being propelled by coal, because 85% of the electricity passing through its Eastern grid comes from … Continue reading Diesel-Driven: Electric Car Charging Stations Powered by Giant Banks of Diesel Generators
Physical Reality Means There Will Be No Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ (Not Now/Not Ever)
Claims about an inevitable wind and solar transition show wishful thinking is no match for the laws of physics. Sunset (a daily occurrence, for the uninitiated) and calm weather (also a common and natural phenomenon) are where the physical reality begins; and the much-heralded shift to an all-wind and solar-powered future begins to unravel. Then … Continue reading Physical Reality Means There Will Be No Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ (Not Now/Not Ever)
‘Green’ Devolution: Why The Grand Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Guarantees Dark & Dismal Future
These days it takes some time and effort to explain to millennials what it was to have power on tap, whatever the weather, at prices everyone could afford. However, if the so-called wind and solar ‘transition’ continues unchecked, a generation from now, talk about having electricity as and when we need it - and being … Continue reading ‘Green’ Devolution: Why The Grand Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Guarantees Dark & Dismal Future
Deliberately Trashed: Why Biden’s Subsidised Wind & Solar Push Is Destroying America
Once the engineers were banished and the bureaucrats took charge, the fate of reliable and affordable energy supplies was sealed. Trashing coal-fired power plants, demonising nuclear power and squandering untold $billions on hopelessly unreliable wind and solar would have never happened if the engineers were left alone to run the show. The results are difficult … Continue reading Deliberately Trashed: Why Biden’s Subsidised Wind & Solar Push Is Destroying America
