China’s & India’s Coal-Fired Power Push Ignores West’s Suicidal Wind & Solar Embrace

China and India are building coal-fired and nuclear power plants, hand over fist. Their rapid economic development hinges on access to reliable and cheap power to industry. Meanwhile, the West maintains its positively suicidal obsession with subsidised wind and solar. Whereas China profits handsomely - selling millions of solar panels made by Uighur slaves and … Continue reading China’s & India’s Coal-Fired Power Push Ignores West’s Suicidal Wind & Solar Embrace

Dazed & Confused: 5 Things About the ‘Inevitable Energy Transition’ That Make No Sense

Confused about the grand wind and solar ‘transition’? It’s a sensation experienced by any rational thinker. None of what’s put forward makes even the vaguest sense, once the critical faculties are applied. Jude Clemente selects 5 subjects as a subset and does just that in the piece below. 5 Things I Truly Don’t Understand About … Continue reading Dazed & Confused: 5 Things About the ‘Inevitable Energy Transition’ That Make No Sense

Why Weather-Dependent Wind & Solar Transition Will Inevitably Fail

Spoiler alert: the reason the wind and solar transition must fail is calm weather and sunset. So much, so simple and obvious. No country has ever powered itself entirely on wind and solar; no country ever will.  Anyone telling you otherwise, is either a lunatic or they’re in on the greatest economic and environmental fraud, … Continue reading Why Weather-Dependent Wind & Solar Transition Will Inevitably Fail

Ethical Vacuum: RE Batteries & All Electric Vehicles Drive Demand For “Blood Minerals”

As the truth gets out, the smugness that comes with owning (and sometimes driving) a Tesla may be harder to maintain than the vehicle itself (see above). The trope has it that soon we’ll all be auto-piloted by EVs charged by electrons lovingly caressed from sunshine and breezes. Although, if that vision is ever realised, … Continue reading Ethical Vacuum: RE Batteries & All Electric Vehicles Drive Demand For “Blood Minerals”

Renewable Energy Madness: Why Net-Zero CO2 Targets Herald New Miserable Dark Age

Wisdom comes with experience: people soon wise up to the reality of the wind and solar ‘transition’ once they’ve spent time freezing or boiling in the dark. Over time, the experience will be shared by more of our compatriots on planet Earth. Obsessive, indeed maniacal, renewable energy policies are a guarantee of crippling power bills … Continue reading Renewable Energy Madness: Why Net-Zero CO2 Targets Herald New Miserable Dark Age

EV Explosion: Get Ready For Toxic & Terrifying Lithium Battery Explosions

As more battery-powered Electric Vehicles hit the road, get ready for fiery explosions to become part of daily life. Lithium-Ion batteries are said to be the Planet’s saviour, but be sure you’re well clear when they explode into toxic fireballs that firefighters can’t extinguish, and which are simply left to burn themselves out. On the … Continue reading EV Explosion: Get Ready For Toxic & Terrifying Lithium Battery Explosions

Renewables Generated Demand For Rare Earths Generating Toxic & Lasting Legacy

Sure, China profits from the great wind and solar scam, but it comes with a toxic legacy caused its rare earth processors that make it all possible. Every wind turbine, every all-EV and every solar panel critically depends upon a myriad of so-called ‘rare earths’. The minerals in question have become ‘rare’, of late, as … Continue reading Renewables Generated Demand For Rare Earths Generating Toxic & Lasting Legacy

Democrat’s Green New Deal: Part Energy Fantasy/Part Economic Suicide Pact

Hubris and arrogance are essential character traits for those pretending that we’re well on our way to an all-wind and sun-powered future. Helpfully, the terrible events unfolding in Ukraine have exposed that whopping lie, for all to see. Energy self-reliance is back on the agenda, with a vengeance, and that means fossil fuels and nuclear … Continue reading Democrat’s Green New Deal: Part Energy Fantasy/Part Economic Suicide Pact

Destination Devolution: The ‘Green’ Industrial Revolution – A Monstrous Marxist Lie

Believe that we can run on nothing but sunshine and breezes, then you’ll believe anything. No country has ever run itself on wind and solar power, alone. No country ever will. Even mythical mega-batteries can’t change that equation. Only the truly delusional believe that we can eradicate our reliance upon fossil fuels of all descriptions, … Continue reading Destination Devolution: The ‘Green’ Industrial Revolution – A Monstrous Marxist Lie

EV Collision Course: More Big Batteries Means More Major Environmental Destruction

Giant lithium-ion batteries are said to be the panacea for the hopeless intermittency of wind and solar; they’re also said to be the backbone for an all-Electric Vehicle future. Neither proposition stands a moment’s scrutiny. The true cost of energy storage using lithium-ion batteries is phenomenal, such that it will never match the scale needed … Continue reading EV Collision Course: More Big Batteries Means More Major Environmental Destruction
