Solar was never green. The lifecycle footprint from manufacture to transportation, installation, and end of life is top-heavy, with materials and processes that produce a lot of pollution. That was true before China captured most of the market.
You may have heard me say this a time or two. Neither Wind nor Solar is clean or green. They can’t even scratch the surface of our power needs now. Forget adding more demand from EVs or whatever. It’s all a lie and a very dirty lie.
New Hampshire Business Review (NHBR) likes to publish Dan Weeks’ “thoughts” on various issues, mostly climate and green energy-related, Seacoast real estate (which needed serious debunking), and now his opposition to HB544 which we simply can’t ignore.
The collective unconscious has yet to realize this scientific fact. Green Energy is bad for the environment. Wind and Solar are dirty, carbon-intensive at both the beginning and end of life and unrecyclable – but that’s not bad enough. Biden* has plans to make solar more dangerous.
Long before creepy hedge-fund manager Tom Steyer was a political force, he ran a company and got uber-rich off dirty coal. His influence in this area will be felt across India, China, and South East Asia for decades. Put another way, his green activism and green campaign are run on dirty coal money.
This will not be news to most of our readers. Green Energy infrastructure is dirty on the front end and the back end. There are issues in between as well, but here’s one point that gets overlooked. The materials needed are mined, primarily by child labor.
Jeanne Shaheen is a beneficiary of money flowing from the Sierra Club, but Sierra has recently come under scrutiny for some of its fundraising tactics, including commercial arrangements that financially benefited their leadership and also resulted in Sierra Club profits for which no taxes were ever paid. We know how ‘concerned’ senator Shaheen is about … Read more
A Solar Plant didn’t just go bankrupt after wasting millions in Democrat backed Green energy stimulus, it left a hazardous wasteland for taxpayers to clean up as well… The Abound Solar plant, which got $400 million in federal loan guarantees in 2010, when the Obama administration sought to use stimulus funds to promote green energy, … Read more
An electoral reckoning is due, but so is an electrical one. The two are intertwined. A radical movement led primarily by the progressive left insists Americans must spend more to have less. We must electrify everything, they say. We must build enormous Easter Island-like shrines and monuments to appease the sun and wind gods (as … Read more
On the 2018 Summer Solstice, a climate witch predicted humanity’s doom if “we” did not stop using fossil fuels in the next five years. June 21st, 2024, has come and gone, and while we may still be doomed six years later, it is not because of fossil fuels. The people trying to force us off … Read more
Not everyone has been able to take advantage of the gobs of taxpayer money pouring between the seams to encourage the adoption of so-called green technologies. And it’s not because they aren’t truly green. Joe’s Build Back Better has beaten back business.
Steve had this post, “Night Cap: Did The EU Just Make the Net-Zero Transition Illegal” in which the CURRENT EU head honchos passed this resolution:
If you hear a politician or one of their fanatical followers mouthing off about net zero, the energy transition, or achieving some arbitrary reduction in emissions by a date earlier than, say, 2150 CE or 130 ACE (after the covid era), call bullsh!t. Don’t worry, we’ve got receipts.
If the corporate media says it, the odds are good that it is misleading, an incomplete ‘truth,’ or a lie. But because they are so politically driven in their choices and coverage, you can almost glean the truth based on how hyperbolic their response is or how narrow their focus is.
The confidence artists doing business as Vermont’s Democratic majority legislature have crafted a bill it thinks will make Big Oil pay for environmental damage which it claims is the result of years of detrimental emissions.
As promised in Monday Memes, I have an overflow. My meme cup runneth over. And yes there will be a Friday edition too.
You’d be hard-pressed to find a proper progressive who dislikes how China gets things done. Xi commands it, and everyone else, including the pretend legislature, lines up to make it happen. Failure could mean death and good fortune to someone needing an organ replacement.
If White Guilt needed a poster Girl, there are many from whom to choose, but if you don’t feel like looking, Leah Stokes fits the bill. She is the senior author of a paper funded by pro-wind-energy concerns titled “Prevalence and predictors of wind energy opposition in North America.”
This past week’s discussion in the Renewable Energy Standard Working Group, charged with drafting legislation to be considered by the General Assembly during the 2024 legislative session, highlighted some serious problems with Vermont’s energy policies, both philosophical and practical.
China is building coal plants faster than a Democrat can stuff a ballot box, earning it the glorious distinction of being the world’s leader in CO2 and air pollution emissions.
