For 26 futile years, the net-zero maniacs have wasted fuel, energy and taxpayer’s money to bite the hands that provide their food, energy, welfare and public sector jobs.Led by EU and AUKUS dreamers, they destroy reliable energy from coal, oil, nuclear, gas and hydro while forcing us to subsidise net-negative dreams like solar, wind, wave-power, CCUS, hot rocks, pumped hydro and hydrogen. All such speculative ventures should be funded by speculators, not taxpayers.COP-Out-26 illustrates to the … [Read more...]
Wind Industry: Exploitation of the Weak by the Powerful
Tucker Carlson’s new documentary Blown Away: The People vs Wind Power, first aired October 22. It’s a devastating critique of the wind-power industry.The politics, the economics, the energy reliability, the health impacts—these and more figure into Carlson’s analysis. The conclusion: wind power is bad for the environment, bad for the economy, bad for ordinary people, and good only for its owners, who benefit from tax subsidies that make an otherwise unprofitable industry highly profitable. Major … [Read more...]
‘They need to breed less’: the darkness of climate zealotry
In this age of green craze, the most likely response to legitimate concerns about the lack of access to energy for the world's poor is advocacy for so-called renewable technologies such as wind turbines and solar panels.As embarrassing as that suggestion should be to the advocates of such unreliable and impractical energy sources, there are sometimes even more cringe-worthy replies that verge on the inhumane. A recent tweet of mine prompted one such response.The tweet was directed to attendees … [Read more...]
Can Green Energy Cause a Global Food Shortage?
China is one of the world’s largest food producers. Recently an acute power shortage there reduced food output. This sent markets into panic. Severe global food shortages and increased prices could follow.What caused China’s power shortage? Over-reliance on renewable energy. It led to insufficient and unreliable electricity generation. That harmed domestic food production and global food security.Many people condemn coal. They espouse “green” policies. But these lead to power blackouts. And … [Read more...]
Countdown to COP26 on the road to failure
It is less than 60 days until COP26 convenes in Glasgow. We can expect a flood of climate horror stories (including flooding). But there will also be some discussion of the actual issues, so here is a brief breakdown of the big four.Keep in mind that the alarmists have a bit of a civil war going on, between what I call the moderates and the radicals. The moderates have been at it for over 30 years and the radicals are fed up. The moderates now have a net zero target of 2050, while the radicals … [Read more...]

One Overhyped Crisis Deserves Another
Anthropogenic climate change is real. It is not a an existential threat---pace Greenpeace, the Climate Action Network, and the world's most famous climate scientist, 18-year-old Greta Thunberg, who demand a hundred-trillion-dollar makeover of the global energy infrastructure to achieve a fraction of a degree of global temperature reduction at the end of this century.COVID-19 is real. It is not an existential threat---pace the WHO, the CDC, and your local mayor or school board, who demand … [Read more...]
To anti-capitalists climate change is just a pretext for a planned economy
Guest column by Rainer ZitelmannMany so-called climate change activists are not really concerned about the climate and the environment. No, for them, these are merely instruments in the fight against capitalism. Examine the standard work of anti-capitalist climate change activists and you will quickly see what I mean.Naomi Klein, the popular critic of capitalism and globalization, admits that she initially had no particular interest in the issues surrounding and related to climate change. Then, … [Read more...]
Al Gore Offers Africa Electricity by the Spoonful
Guest column by Ken BraunAn anecdote widely attributed to (but perhaps not originating with) Milton Friedman holds that the late, great Nobel Prize laureate was touring a developing nation and happened upon a public works project. To make way for the new road or canal or whatever, platoons of workers using hand shovels were laboriously moving the dirt and rocks from one spot to another. Perplexed by this absurdly primitive approach, Friedman supposedly asked why the government wasn’t using … [Read more...]
Unmasking the Latest Bipartisan (and Dangerous) Climate Bill
It is summer in the United States, which means temperatures are hot and western forests and grasslands are burning—as has been the case as long as people have lived here. In our current age, however, in which there is alleged to be a political “solution” to nearly every problem, politicians believe they can use governmental policies to give us better weather and change the nature of wildfires.So far, Congress, state legislators, and the Biden administration have launched a blizzard of new … [Read more...]
