The subsdised wind scam is dying a natural death around the globe, but in the USA its demise was both brutal and sudden. The wind industry met its match when Donald J Trump took the presidency for a second time. The President made no secret about his hatred of the greatest environmental and economic fraud … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 9 August 2026

Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 19 July 2026
China is held up by the wind and sun cult as the perfect model of an all wind and sun powered future. Characters who’ve never visited the place, make increasingly unhinged claims about China ditching coal-fired power and embracing wind turbines and solar panels, as if that was the only sensible way forward. Of course, … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 19 July 2026

The wind and solar ‘industries’ keep telling us that their (occasional) product is always the cheapest, by miles. That story rests on the claim that the wind and sun always ‘free’. All that’s needed is the right ideological will to harness sunshine and breezes. That, and hundreds of billions of dollars in subsidies, of course. … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 12 July 2026

The Chinese Communist Party plays a long and cunning game. China supplies millions of solar panels, wind turbines and the systems that operate them, so infiltrating their enemy’s power networks is a cinch. In the US, several states have scotched wind power projects backed by the CCP precisely because the systems can be readily controlled … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 17 May 2026

History will punish those who encouraged a bunch of rent-seeking psychopaths to destroy Western energy independence, peace and prosperity. Once upon a time in Australia soldiers, sheep-shearers, engineers and business leaders occupied the Treasury benches. These days it’s career politicians: Arts grads who started out as political advisers destined for a Parliament now dominated by … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 3 May 2026

South Australia and South Africa share the same maniacal obsession with chaotically intermittent and heavily subsidised wind and solar. South Australia and South Africa also share the same crushing power prices that have destroyed industry and punish households and families. They also deliberately set out to destroy coal-fired power generation systems that had kept the … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 26 April 26

For the best part of 30 years, rent-seeking wind and solar outfits have claimed their (occasionally delivered) products are the cheapest around. Always overlooking the hundreds of billions of dollars in subsidies and the benefits of punitive mandates and targets in their favour. However, whenever talk turns to cutting those subsidies or removing the mandates … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 19 April 26

The net-zero nut jobs are howling like banshees about the lack of liquid fuel. Hypocrisy amongst hydrocarbon haters is the new black. On their world view, the myriad benefits of oil and gas are for them, not YOU. Same goes for electricity. Mandates and massive subsidies for chaotically delivered wind and solar, coupled with punitive … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 12 April 26

Western Europe’s sad and sorry descent started with delusional claims that wind and solar can power industrial economies, all by themselves. Massively subsidised, delivered only occasional and then on a chaotic basis, their insane cost and inherent unreliability has gutted Germany’s industrial sector and delivered punitive power prices across the Continent. Weakened by an ideology … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 5 April 2026

Western Civilisation was built entirely on our ability to harness, master and utilise energy, but, for the last half-century or so, its abundance has been taken for granted. That delusional leadership across the West have signed up to suicidal, ideologically-driven wind and solar scams is the natural consequence of a generation who have absolutely no … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 29 March 2026
