Wealth and ignorance provide some explanation for our suicidal wind and solar obsessed energy ‘policies’. A group of smug, Tesla driving inner-city elites are quick to pontificate about every aspect of our economic lives. Berating us about the vehicles we drive, the homes we live in, what we eat and even how we cook our … Continue reading Calling Out Pure Bulls%$#: Time to Tackle Faux Green Ideology

Burn Baby, Burn: Whole Forests Felled to Fire Up Biofuel Subsidy Bonanza
Easily the most unhinged ‘renewable’ energy source is ‘biofuel’: a euphemism for the wholesale clearfelling and burning of forests in converted coal-fired power plants. Apparently, burning fossilised forests from the Carboniferous period 300 million years ago is a deadly sin against nature - all that carbon dioxide gas (that plants crave) must be doing someone … Continue reading Burn Baby, Burn: Whole Forests Felled to Fire Up Biofuel Subsidy Bonanza
