Wealth and ignorance provide some explanation for our suicidal wind and solar obsessed energy ‘policies’. A group of smug, Tesla driving inner-city elites are quick to pontificate about every aspect of our economic lives. Berating us about the vehicles we drive, the homes we live in, what we eat and even how we cook our … Continue reading Calling Out Pure Bulls%$#: Time to Tackle Faux Green Ideology

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
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
Hostage Crisis: Wind, Solar & EV Obsessed West Depends Entirely On China
The CCP is on the perfect path to destroy the West, thanks to our ludicrous obsession with intermittent wind and solar and overpriced electric vehicles. China dominates the production of solar panels, is top-level when it comes to the production of wind turbines (certainly by number of units produced) and is the key producer of … Continue reading Hostage Crisis: Wind, Solar & EV Obsessed West Depends Entirely On China
Economic Euthanasia: Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Means Energy Poverty Everywhere
Once upon a time, the object was delivering power to everyone, everywhere, all the time. Not anymore. Chaotically delivered and heavily subsidised wind and solar have another object, and it is not one that their proponents dare speak of. If delivering reliable and affordable power were the object, then no one would be talking about … Continue reading Economic Euthanasia: Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Means Energy Poverty Everywhere
Enviro-Frauds: Wind & Solar Ain’t ‘Clean’ & Certainly Ain’t ‘Green’
Call wind and solar whatever you like, but there’s simply no rational basis to call them ‘clean’ or ‘green’. Both chew up monumental volumes of minerals, chemicals, rare earths and energy just to create the panels and turbines. Both leave monumental volumes of waste when turbines and panels are spent – after a decade or … Continue reading Enviro-Frauds: Wind & Solar Ain’t ‘Clean’ & Certainly Ain’t ‘Green’
Virtue’s Toll: Grand ‘Green’ Transition Delivers Horrific Human Rights Abuses
Every wind turbine, solar panel and lithium battery is the product of scarce resources, and not just the rare stuff mined by 9-year-olds in the Congo. Claims about a ‘green’ Utopia never touch on the volume of mineral and other resources required to get there. Nor do the West’s great virtue signallers pay much lip … Continue reading Virtue’s Toll: Grand ‘Green’ Transition Delivers Horrific Human Rights Abuses
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)
Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Forces Poor to Transfer Their (Meagre) Wealth to the (Already) Wealthy
The grand wind and solar scam was designed so a few get to profit outrageously at the expense of the many - and they’re called ‘rent seekers’ for good reason: Rent-seeking is an economic concept that occurs when an entity seeks to gain wealth without any reciprocal contribution of productivity. An example of rent-seeking is … Continue reading Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Forces Poor to Transfer Their (Meagre) Wealth to the (Already) Wealthy
Enviro-Imposters: Why There’s Nothing Green About Intermittent Wind & Solar Power
Spreading millions of solar panels and spearing thousands of wind turbines far and wide doesn’t make sense, at any level. Intermittent and diffuse energy sources do not represent progress in the state of human affairs; that was the way of the world pre-Industrial Revolution - science, enterprise and engineering made all that a part of … Continue reading Enviro-Imposters: Why There’s Nothing Green About Intermittent Wind & Solar Power
