Thorium Reactors Promise Even Cleaner & Safer Nuclear-Powered Future
Adults are talking about nuclear power as if it were a long lost relative. Having wrecked reliable power supplies with subsidies for chaotically delivered wind and solar, any country worth being part of has put nuclear power generation back at the forefront of its energy future. The French are pouring €millions into research and development … Continue reading Thorium Reactors Promise Even Cleaner & Safer Nuclear-Powered Future
Project Prosperity: New Nuclear Age Heralds Cheap & Reliable Power Forever
The human-hating troglodytes who want us to freeze in the dark and eat bugs for breakfast, hate nuclear power - with a passion.

Grand Tour: Anti-Nuclear Cult Should Visit France, Finland, South Korea, Canada & China Etc
The first rule of propaganda is never admit defeat, the next is denying the existence of your true enemy.

Energy and the Wealth of Nations: Expensive Energy Guarantees Miserable Poverty

Whether it’s mass State-wide blackouts - as wind and solar ‘powered’ South Australians experienced … Continue reading Energy and the Wealth of Nations: Expensive Energy Guarantees Miserable Poverty
No Country Powers Itself Entirely With Wind & Solar; No Country Ever Will
Language matters. Orwell knew it, so does your local Ministry of Truth. Wind and solar propagandists know it too. They use ‘energy’, when consumers only care about ‘power’. They talk about wind and solar output in terms of meaningless averages, when consumers only care about having power as and when they need it, around-the-clock, whatever … Continue reading No Country Powers Itself Entirely With Wind & Solar; No Country Ever Will
Europe’s Wind Industry Collapse Leaves Wind Power Cult Searching For New False Idols
Wind power acolytes exhibit all the hallmarks of a cult. 20 years on, and anyone with critical faculties can explain in a sentence why wind power will never amount to meaningful power generation source. But the cultist still believes - running on a mix of blind faith, ignorance and blissful stupidity. Cults are never big … Continue reading Europe’s Wind Industry Collapse Leaves Wind Power Cult Searching For New False Idols
Renewables Targets Scrapped: Britain Joins French Nuclear Power Generation Renaissance
The French are just the latest European power to ditch ludicrous wind and solar generation targets in favour of nuclear power. And Britain is lining up to do much the same. Both have adopted net zero carbon oxide gas emissions targets, and the only way of meeting them is safe, reliable and affordable nuclear power. … Continue reading Renewables Targets Scrapped: Britain Joins French Nuclear Power Generation Renaissance
