For those in the know, whenever the term ‘green energy’ is trotted out by some starry-eyed hipster or sandal wearing … Continue reading The True & Staggering Environmental Cost of Wind & Solar Power: Unsustainable Energy Defined
Nuclear Power: The Only CO2 Free Power Generation System Available
*** The most astonishing thing about Alan Finkel's report on Australia's electricity market calamity, is that the only stand-alone, CO2 emissions free generation source - nuclear power - barely rates a mention and gets dismissed as if it were some far fetched technology used by aliens. Finkel, a climate alarmist if ever there was one, … Continue reading Nuclear Power: The Only CO2 Free Power Generation System Available
Germany’s Monumental Environmental Fail: CO2 Emissions Rise Despite €Trillions Blown on Subsidised Wind & Solar
In Germany, around €190 billion has already been burnt on renewable subsidies; currently the green energy levy costs €56 million every day. And, the level of subsidy for wind and solar sees Germans paying €20 billion a year for power that gets sold on the power exchange for around €2 billion. Energy poverty is a … Continue reading Germany’s Monumental Environmental Fail: CO2 Emissions Rise Despite €Trillions Blown on Subsidised Wind & Solar
