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: 13 July 2025

Any country that signed up to the subsidised wind and solar scam is facing the inevitable power pricing and supply calamity that follows. Now that they’re facing the inevitable backlash from taxpayers and power consumers (ie voters), many of those same countries are quietly crab walking away from the avoidable disasters they created. The outbreak … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 13 July 2025

Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 6 July 2025

As Americans celebrated the 4th of July, Donald J Trump was busy delivering Independence from the grand subsidised wind and solar scam. Their President hates these things, with a passion, and is determined to Make America The Great Energy Powerhouse Again. Unleashing America’s vast hydrocarbon reserves and turning them into productivity and prosperity is part … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 6 July 2025

Eco-Warrior’s Wind & Solar Greenwishing Can’t Survive First Contact With Reality

The trouble with reality is that eventually crushes delusions and wishful thinking, just like the notion we’ll soon be running on nothing but sunshine and breezes. Hope collides pretty quickly with the inherent failing of power generators that can’t deliver on demand. No one cares much for freezing or boiling in the dark. And no … Continue reading Eco-Warrior’s Wind & Solar Greenwishing Can’t Survive First Contact With Reality

Dumping The ‘Clean’ Energy Mess Right In Your Backyard

The anything inevitable about the so-called wind and solar transition is that people inevitably conclude the whole thing is an environmental and economic fraud. There’s nothing ‘clean’, ‘green’ or even vaguely ‘renewable’ about solar panels and wind turbines. Which are utterly pointless, because they can’t deliver power as and when we need it. Solar panel … Continue reading Dumping The ‘Clean’ Energy Mess Right In Your Backyard

Environmental Insensitivity: Electric Vehicles Driven By Moral Piety & Gross Hypocrisy

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

Natural Limits: World’s Mineral Supply Can’t Match Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Demands

The climate cult reckons we’re well on our way to an all-wind and solar-powered future. But with the wind and solar industries’ demand for raw materials - like copper - already outstripping supply, the grand ‘transition’ will soon hit some very natural limits. Inside every giant industrial wind turbine, there’s a bevy of rare minerals which … Continue reading Natural Limits: World’s Mineral Supply Can’t Match Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Demands

What Wind Turbines Are Made Of: Endless Mountains of Minerals and Energy

The way the wind cult tells it, you’d think these things were made in heaven using moonbeams and fairy dust. The reality is altogether more industrial. Every wind turbine is the product of a myriad of minerals consumed in enormous quantities, along with staggering amounts of energy needed to combine them all into a machine … Continue reading What Wind Turbines Are Made Of: Endless Mountains of Minerals and Energy

Headless Chickens: Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Story Flips to Totally Unhinged

It’s a challenge to distill any sensible narrative from the grand wind and solar transition. The subtext is always and everywhere about deflecting attention from their natural incapacity to deliver power as and when it’s needed. Also known as the ‘hopeless intermittency problem’. The ‘answers’ pitched up seem only limited by the rather fertile (albeit … Continue reading Headless Chickens: Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Story Flips to Totally Unhinged

Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Myth Busted: When Delusion & Reality Collide

Harnessing energy was the secret of success for every first world economy. Destroying the systems that delivered it will be the reason for their demise and ultimate failure. The notion that wind and solar can deliver the kind of power upon which those economies were built is nothing more than a grand delusion, driven by … Continue reading Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Myth Busted: When Delusion & Reality Collide
