When it comes to reducing carbon dioxide gas, wind power is touted as the perfect panacea - turns out it’s an abject failure on that score, too. Leaving aside arguments about whether CO2 is a toxic pollutant or a naturally occurring beneficial trace gas which plants crave, the primary object of Britain’s effort to power … Continue reading ‘Green’ Energy Fail: Counting the Staggering Cost of Britain’s CO2 Emissions Reduction Policy

Battered Power Consumers Cry Mercy as Climate Cult Ramps Up Renewables Rhetoric
Wind and solar power have never been about logic and reason, it’s a deranged form of ideology that drives their promoters. The zealots that promote that pathetic pair are screaming blue murder, as the political tide turns against them. The rhetoric gets ramped up, even as reality bites. Sydney billionaires living in $100 million Harbourside … Continue reading Battered Power Consumers Cry Mercy as Climate Cult Ramps Up Renewables Rhetoric
Want Affordable Power & Think CO2’s a Problem? Nuclear Power is the Only Soultion
In the climate alarmists’ crusade against CO2, only the most delusional still think wind and solar power adds anything to their arsenal. The war on carbon dioxide gas isn’t about to end soon, and shows no sign of relenting. These people are zealots, after all. The result being that any generation system involving coal or … Continue reading Want Affordable Power & Think CO2’s a Problem? Nuclear Power is the Only Soultion
Renewable Energy’s Dirty Dozen: 12 Reasons Why Chaotically Intermittent & Heavily Subsidised Wind & Solar Power Make No Sense
It takes a special brand of delusion to believe that the world can run on sunshine and breezes. For wind and sun worshippers, disastrous examples like South Australia - where mass blackouts and load shedding have become the new normal - require not just practiced delusion but a form of self-flagellating stoicism, as well. Oh, … Continue reading Renewable Energy’s Dirty Dozen: 12 Reasons Why Chaotically Intermittent & Heavily Subsidised Wind & Solar Power Make No Sense
Germany’s Renewable Energy Disaster – Part 2: Wind & Solar Deemed ‘Ecological Disasters’
Germany’s wind and solar experiment has failed: the so-called ‘Energiewende’ (energy transition) has turned into an insanely costly debacle. German power prices have rocketed; blackouts and load shedding are the norm; and its idyllic countryside has been turned into an industrial wasteland, with its forests, no exception (see above). Hundreds of billions of euros have been squandered … Continue reading Germany’s Renewable Energy Disaster – Part 2: Wind & Solar Deemed ‘Ecological Disasters’
Angela’s Angst: €Billions Squandered on Wind & Solar But Germany’s CO2 Emissions Continue to Rise
The one, nay the only, ‘justification’ for the $billions squandered on subsidised wind power is ‘saving’ the planet from CO2 gas. Except, that the wind industry has never produced a shred of credible evidence that chaotic and intermittent wind power has actually reduced CO2 gas emissions, anywhere on that planet. If CO2's your 'poison', wind … Continue reading Angela’s Angst: €Billions Squandered on Wind & Solar But Germany’s CO2 Emissions Continue to Rise
Minnesota Throws $Billions at Wind Power: But CO2 Emissions Barely Budge
'Green' energy fails every test Watts Up with That? John Hinderacker 18 October 2017 The sad story of Minnesota’s green energy failure is one that no doubt is being replicated around the country. And one of the ironies of green energy is that it is terrible for the environment. Liberals will tell you that Minnesota … Continue reading Minnesota Throws $Billions at Wind Power: But CO2 Emissions Barely Budge
Last Chance Hotel: Australia’s Energy Crisis at the Crossroads
*** Australia’s energy crisis is a self-inflicted calamity with no apparent end in sight. The PM, Malcolm Turnbull seems intent on protecting his son, Alex’s investment in Australia’s most notorious wind power outfit, Infigen (see our post here). While his gormless Energy Minister, Josh Frydenberg behaves like a punch-drunk boxer, who cannot land a punch … Continue reading Last Chance Hotel: Australia’s Energy Crisis at the Crossroads
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
China Counts the Staggering Cost of its Wind Power Experiment
Plenty of what Westerners know about the Middle Kingdom is more marvellous myth than solid fact. Fitting squarely within that category is the idea pedalled by wind worshippers that China is working at a furious pace to carpet itself with millions of these things. In truth, instead of squandering billions on a technology that was … Continue reading China Counts the Staggering Cost of its Wind Power Experiment
