Net-zero carbon dioxide gas emissions targets are just another example of ‘glorious five-year plans’ with monstrous results for all and sundry. The malevolent dictator loves grand sweeping visions, particularly those that diminish their enemies and transfer their wealth to their friends and cronies. So it is with mandated and equally malevolent diktats aimed at reducing … Continue reading Great Leap Backwards: Net-Zero Emission Targets Wrecking Western Civilisation

Wind & Solar: Always & Everywhere Dependent On Massive & Endless Subsidies
Never stand between rent seekers and a fat pile of taxpayers’ money. The wind and solar industries were built on lies and myth, but they can only survive when there's a steady stream of massive and endless subsidies. Cut the subsidies and rent seekers disappear in a heartbeat. BP was once the head of the … Continue reading Wind & Solar: Always & Everywhere Dependent On Massive & Endless Subsidies
Nut-Zero: Wind & Solar Cult Promise Shared Stone-Age Misery For All (Bar Them)
The wind and sun cult reckon that with a few tweaks and twists we’ll soon be running on nothing but sunshine and breezes. It is, of course, a collective delusion, bound up in a woolly-headed brand of undergraduate Marxism - the kind enamoured of starry-eyed arts and sociology students, around the globe. On their world … Continue reading Nut-Zero: Wind & Solar Cult Promise Shared Stone-Age Misery For All (Bar Them)
Reality Collision Course: World Accelerates Towards Subsidised Wind & Solar Trainwreck
Before the wind and sun cult took charge, the power grid was designed and run by engineers - using coal, a little gas, hydro and nuclear (everywhere else in the world except Australia, that is). It ran like clockwork; power was cheap as chips and delivered on demand. Electrical storms were the only thing that … Continue reading Reality Collision Course: World Accelerates Towards Subsidised Wind & Solar Trainwreck
No Mystery: Human Progress Begins & Ends With Access to Reliable & Affordable Power
The misanthropes who glue themselves to roads and berate us about the ‘horrors’ of nuclear, coal and gas-fired power aren’t the sharpest tools in the shed, to be sure. Living in a fact and consequence free zone, they’ve never stopped to think for a moment what life would be like without light, heat and power. … Continue reading No Mystery: Human Progress Begins & Ends With Access to Reliable & Affordable Power
Mission Impossible: Net-Zero Carbon Dioxide Emissions Targets Amount to Economic Suicide
Costly and chaotic wind and solar are central to so-called ‘net-zero CO2 emissions targets’. The renewables driven energy calamity playing out in Europe, California, Texas, and now Australia can only worsen under the yoke of further efforts to reduce carbon dioxide gas in the electricity generation sector with much more of the same. As the … Continue reading Mission Impossible: Net-Zero Carbon Dioxide Emissions Targets Amount to Economic Suicide
Calculated Destruction: Counting the True Costs of Net-Zero CO2 Emissions Madness
For renewable energy rent-seekers, the path to net-zero CO2 emissions targets is lined with endless taxpayers’ gold. These boys don’t get out of bed unless the subsidies are huge and guaranteed to last in perpetuity. So, it comes as no surprise that the true cost of net-zero carbon dioxide gas emissions targets is out of … Continue reading Calculated Destruction: Counting the True Costs of Net-Zero CO2 Emissions Madness
Beyond Contempt: Bankers Back Net-Zero & Condemn World’s Poorest to Eternal Poverty
By refusing to back reliable coal-fired power plants, global elites have condemned the world’s poorest to a life of abject and eternal poverty. The prospect of making $trillions trading in carbon dioxide gas credits - presumably backed by an invisible commodity that will never be delivered - has international bankers salivating. To get there, the money … Continue reading Beyond Contempt: Bankers Back Net-Zero & Condemn World’s Poorest to Eternal Poverty
What Meeting Net-Zero Emissions Targets Without Nuclear Power Will Cost You
There’s a new definition of insanity: trying to satisfy net-zero carbon dioxide gas emissions targets without nuclear power. Australia’s PM, Scott Morrison’s energy policy falls well within that definition, which probably makes this country one of the largest lunatic asylums, on earth. Morrison headed off to Glasgow to join 25,000 virtue signallers, crony capitalists and … Continue reading What Meeting Net-Zero Emissions Targets Without Nuclear Power Will Cost You
Goodbye Glasgow – Hello Energy Poverty: The Staggering True Cost of Wind & Solar
If the Climate Industrial Complex gets its way, kiss goodbye to reliable and affordable energy. The apparent answer all our woes is more of the same: endless subsidies to hopelessly chaotic wind and solar, with even greater subsidies to pie-in-the-sky ‘green’ hydrogen and insanely expensive giant lithium batteries. If you’re not already suffering the consequences … Continue reading Goodbye Glasgow – Hello Energy Poverty: The Staggering True Cost of Wind & Solar
