The Maths of Net Zero: Why Claims About The Wind & Solar Transition Don’t Add Up

Clown Factor: Trying to Explain Our Idiotic and Self-Destructive Wind & Solar Obsession

Remember the class clown? The idiot who couldn’t help himself, always in trouble and too witless to know why. Well, he’s now firmly in charge of energy policy, which in its design and implementation resembles the chaos of a mismanaged three-ringed circus.
