Anyone still banging on about CO2 emissions in the electricity generation sector, ought to be banging on about nothing other than nuclear power. Nuclear power is the only, stand-alone generation source that can deliver reliable, affordable power without generating CO2 gas, in the process. The fact that politicians in this Country talk about anything … Continue reading New Age Nuclear Needed Now: Why Costly & Intermittent Renewables Can’t Save the Planet

Wind & Solar Reality Check: Why Intermittent & Unreliable Renewables Can’t Save the Planet
There’s only one problem with intermittent wind and solar, at scale they’ve never worked and never will. Sure, powering an isolated farm house or pumping water for livestock with a few solar panels makes practical and economic sense. But that’s not what’s being rammed down our throats, and massively subsidised at our expense, at the … Continue reading Wind & Solar Reality Check: Why Intermittent & Unreliable Renewables Can’t Save the Planet
Nuclear Power Works: That’s Why The Wind & Solar Industries Hate It So Much
Only the most delusional climate alarmist still believes that wind and solar power can help in their global crusade against carbon dioxide gas. As we have said repeatedly, nuclear power is the only stand-alone power generation source which is capable of delivering power on demand, without CO2 emissions being generated in the process. Perversely, notwithstanding … Continue reading Nuclear Power Works: That’s Why The Wind & Solar Industries Hate It So Much
Climate Alarmism Meets Energy Realism: Climate Scientists Reject Wind & Solar & Demand Nuclear Powered Future
In the climate alarmists’ worldwide crusade against carbon dioxide gas, only the most delusional still believe that wind and solar power add anything to their arsenal. As we have said repeatedly, nuclear power is the only stand-alone power generation source which is capable of delivering power on demand, without CO2 emissions being generated in the … Continue reading Climate Alarmism Meets Energy Realism: Climate Scientists Reject Wind & Solar & Demand Nuclear Powered Future
Wind Power’s Mega-Fail: Hot Calm Weather Forces Nuclear Power Reboot in Taiwan & Japan
Anyone still banging on about CO2 emissions in the electricity generation sector, ought to be banging on about nothing other than nuclear power. Nuclear power is the only, stand-alone generation source that can deliver reliable, affordable power without generating CO2 gas, in the process. The fact that politicians in this Country talk about anything but … Continue reading Wind Power’s Mega-Fail: Hot Calm Weather Forces Nuclear Power Reboot in Taiwan & Japan
World’s Most Expensive Joke: $2 Trillion Squandered on Wind & Solar (So Far)…
The point, if there was one, of throwing hundreds of $billions in subsidies at wind and solar was to slash emissions of carbon dioxide gas. Taxpayers and power consumers who are on the receiving end of the bill for all this environmental piety would, after almost 20 years, be entitled to ask just how much … Continue reading World’s Most Expensive Joke: $2 Trillion Squandered on Wind & Solar (So Far)…
‘Green’ Vandalism: The Mounting Toll of Wind Industry’s Wave of Ecological Destruction
In 2018, it’s easier to find a deluded wind turbine hugger, than an old-fashioned tree hugger. Michael Shellenberger is regarded as one of America’s leading environmental advocates, but his avowed hatred of subsidised, intermittent and unreliable wind and solar puts him at odds with his contemporaries. To the extent that carbon dioxide gas concerns him, … Continue reading ‘Green’ Vandalism: The Mounting Toll of Wind Industry’s Wave of Ecological Destruction
If Wind and Sunshine are Free, Why Is It That Wind & Solar Power Are So Expensive?
Facts tend to flummox renewable energy zealots, especially the way adding wind and solar sends power prices into orbit (see above). After all, they keep telling us that the wind and sun are absolutely free, and getting cheaper all the time. Here’s America’s top green, Michael Shellenberger taking an axe to another RE furphy. A … Continue reading If Wind and Sunshine are Free, Why Is It That Wind & Solar Power Are So Expensive?
Out to Wreck Your Economy & Punish the Poor & Vulnerable? Try Intermittent Wind & Solar
A generation or so back, the ‘green’ was a well-meaning tree-hugger. Then along came CO2 gas which resulted in a new shade of ‘green’. Gone was any vestige of human empathy, let alone compassion, both replaced by a maniacal belief that humans are literally ‘cockroaches’, devouring planet Earth. Instead of hoping to improve the environment … Continue reading Out to Wreck Your Economy & Punish the Poor & Vulnerable? Try Intermittent Wind & Solar
America’s Top Green – Michael Shellenberger – Pushes Nuclear Future & Calls Wind & Solar ‘The Worst for the Enviroment’
In the climate alarmists’ worldwide crusade against carbon dioxide gas, only the most delusional still believe that wind and solar power add anything to their arsenal. Australia is the only G20 country with a legislated prohibition on nuclear power generation. However, the combination of the Federal government's new National Energy Guarantee (NEG) and the associated Emissions Obligation … Continue reading America’s Top Green – Michael Shellenberger – Pushes Nuclear Future & Calls Wind & Solar ‘The Worst for the Enviroment’
