A decade from now, as grids collapse and businesses and households are driven into penury, because they can no longer afford their rocketing power bills, the current generation will have plenty of time to lament (albeit, sitting freezing or boiling in the dark).

America’s Wind Industry Doomed as Republicans Back Cheap, Reliable Coal & Nuclear

  As a first world energy source, there’s only one problem with wind power: and that would be the W-I-N-D.

Virginia Signs Economic Suicide Note: Democrat Governor Sets ‘Heroic’ Wind Power Target

  There is no surer way of wrecking an economy than cranking up energy costs. And there is no surer way of doing that, than by attempting to run on subsidised wind and solar power.

Want Statewide Power Blackouts? Then Plug In To Weather-Dependant Wind & Solar

  For a bit over 20 years, we’ve been berated with warnings that the climate is changing so rapidly, that 'fixing' it is a matter of the most pressing urgency. Notwithstanding that, for nearly 20 years, global temperatures have stubbornly refused to budge, such that there are plenty of climate alarmists not game to bet … Continue reading Want Statewide Power Blackouts?
