Australia’s wind and solar obsession has driven power prices through the roof and the poor and elderly to early graves. Staying warm in the depth of winter is no longer just a matter of turning up the dial on the AC, for the poorest and most vulnerable it’s a daily battle for survival. In the … Continue reading Fatal Attraction: Wind & Solar Obsession Causing Rocketing Power Prices & Frozen Grannies
Growing-Up: Australians Get Serious About Serious Energy, Demanding Nuclear Power, Now
All of a sudden, Australians are talking about a nuclear powered future, like there’s no tomorrow. Having recognised that climate alarmists will never relent in their crusade against carbon dioxide gas - being a proxy for eradicating cheap, reliable and affordable coal-fired power - anyone interested in a future where hot showers and cold beer … Continue reading Growing-Up: Australians Get Serious About Serious Energy, Demanding Nuclear Power, Now
Turbine Trouble: US Military Declares War on Wind Power
Raising a raft of unnecessary danger, the wind industry’s body count currently stands at 192. Flying blades, collapsing and/or self-immolating towers account for their fair share of corpses. But those that take to the air, shouldn’t overlook the number of pilots and their passengers who’ve come to grief, thanks to a wind turbine or their … Continue reading Turbine Trouble: US Military Declares War on Wind Power
Solar Subsidies: Can Create an ‘Industry’, But Can’t Make the Sun Shine
The reason for the chaotic delivery of wind and solar is hardly a mystery: sunset and/or calm weather have been with us, forever. Ah, comes the retort from RE zealots, ‘why, batteries will fix it’. Except, to get battery storage at anything like the scale necessary would involve colossal cost and, of course, even more … Continue reading Solar Subsidies: Can Create an ‘Industry’, But Can’t Make the Sun Shine
Climate Terrorism: Mainstream Media Waging War on Common Sense & Reason
Australian voters recently rejected a massive increase in wind and solar and voted in favour of the Queensland coal industry. And yet, plenty in the mainstream media continue to act as if the Green/Labor Alliance had, in fact, won the Federal election in May. Never let the facts get the way of a deluded narrative, … Continue reading Climate Terrorism: Mainstream Media Waging War on Common Sense & Reason
Dirty Business: Wind Developer – AGL Creates Dust Storm & Destroys Fine Wool Business
Any farmer thinking of getting in bed with the wind industry, ought to think again, starting with this story. As a rule, the wind industry treats its victims with contempt, and none more so than champion superfine merino wool growers, Annie and Gus Gardner. The Gardners – along with the whole Macarthur community – … Continue reading Dirty Business: Wind Developer – AGL Creates Dust Storm & Destroys Fine Wool Business
Time For Nuclear Option: Australian Election Blows the Lid Off the Nuclear Power Debate
Nuclear power isn’t an option in Australia, but it damn well ought to be. Banned by Luddites in 1998, Australia has never had a nuclear power generation system, despite being the world’s third largest uranium exporter, with more than a third of the world's proven reserves. STT is devoted to pushing the case for nuclear … Continue reading Time For Nuclear Option: Australian Election Blows the Lid Off the Nuclear Power Debate
Atomic Ascendancy: Australians Now See Nuclear Power as the Natural Choice
All of a sudden, any Australian with half a brain is talking about nuclear power generation. Not so long ago, only the bravest would utter the ‘N’ word out loud. Howled down by the anti-nuke brigade, in the beginning, and later berated by zealots pushing heavily subsidised and chaotically intermittent wind and solar, those … Continue reading Atomic Ascendancy: Australians Now See Nuclear Power as the Natural Choice
Nuclear Necessity: Solution to Australia’s Energy Debacle Means Nurturing Nuclear Now
Until recently it was a brave MP who dared to drop the ‘N’ word in public, now they’re shouting about nuclear power from the rooftops. STT thinks a couple of things might be responsible for the rapid shift in attitudes. As STT followers are no doubt aware, Australia is the only G20 nation to not … Continue reading Nuclear Necessity: Solution to Australia’s Energy Debacle Means Nurturing Nuclear Now
Rational Reaction: Australian Unions Back Nuclear Powered Future
That Australia, an energy superpower, could back never-reliable wind and solar over ever-reliable nuclear power, astonishes the sane and rational. Especially as the Lucky Country’s known uranium resources are the world’s largest – almost one-third of the world total. Notwithstanding that glorious abundance, Australia banned nuclear power generation a generation ago. There are no nuclear … Continue reading Rational Reaction: Australian Unions Back Nuclear Powered Future
