Slash the massive subsidies and the so-called wind and solar ‘industries’ would disappear in a heartbeat. The chaotic delivery of part-time power has never made any sense. And the world is waking up to that unassailable fact. Which brings us to this week’s roundup, starting the team from Jo Nova reporting on BP’s moment of … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 27 July 2025

Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 8 June 2025
The grand wind and solar ‘transition’ is unravelling, across the globe. Households and businesses being crushed by crippling power bills are fighting back. And the net-zero narrative that underpins the greatest environmental and economic fraud of all time is being revealed for what it is: human-hating Marxism, at its best. Although this time, is being … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 8 June 2025
Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 1 June 2025
The subsidised wind and solar chickens are coming home to roost - power prices are rocketing out of control in any jurisdiction attempting to run on sunshine and breezes. Adding mega-batteries only makes matters worse. With the ever-present threat of total blackouts, rent-seekers and their propaganda machines are still attempting to deflect and bury what … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 1 June 2025
Let Them Freeze: Wind & Solar Generators Couldn’t Care Less About Your Welfare
The wind and solar industries couldn’t care less whether you freeze to death when winter bites across the northern hemisphere and wind and solar output collapse. Solar panels plastered in snow and ice produce nothing; wind turbines frozen solid during breathless, frigid weather produce even less (they actually consume power from the grid to run … Continue reading Let Them Freeze: Wind & Solar Generators Couldn’t Care Less About Your Welfare
Short-Changed: $Billions Spent On Wind & Solar Return Power Pricing & Supply Calamity
All cost and no benefit, chaotically intermittent wind and solar are proven net losers. And yet, the Climate Industrial Complex keeps telling us that the unreliables are central to ‘saving’ the planet. On that score, rather than coming straight out with it, crony capitalists and political elites use the euphemism ‘climate action’. What they really … Continue reading Short-Changed: $Billions Spent On Wind & Solar Return Power Pricing & Supply Calamity
Epic Fail: How Wind & Solar Caused America’s Big Freeze Blackouts & Killed Hundreds
Wind and solar’s hopeless intermittency delivered a deadly lesson during America’s big freeze last winter: hundreds died in freezing homes left without electricity thanks to hundreds of wind turbines that were frozen solid and breathless frigid conditions that meant the remainder delivered no power, in any event; and thousands of solar panels plastered in snow … Continue reading Epic Fail: How Wind & Solar Caused America’s Big Freeze Blackouts & Killed Hundreds
Crunch Time: Obsession With Unreliable Wind & Solar Threatens More Mass Blackouts
Power grids are among the most sophisticated organisms on earth, but they were never designed for the chaos delivered daily by intermittent wind and solar. For power consumers the first realisation that there’s a problem comes with load shedding (controlled blackouts) or mass blackouts (when the grid manager loses control, altogether). When sudden and … Continue reading Crunch Time: Obsession With Unreliable Wind & Solar Threatens More Mass Blackouts
Into The Black: Calm Weather Leaves Britain’s Power Grid At Risk Of Total Collapse
Boris Johnson reckons wind power’s the future for Britain. If so, it’s a future that will soon resemble England’s bitter Dark Ages. The UK has already had its taste of mass blackouts thanks to sudden and unpredictable collapses in wind power output. Now, as Brits head into winter, it’s a case of much more of … Continue reading Into The Black: Calm Weather Leaves Britain’s Power Grid At Risk Of Total Collapse
