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...]
Global Warming Alarmism Threatens Era of Energy Poverty
British Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s call for aggressive action against a so-called climate crisis at the United Nations presages similar statements that surely will be made by the dangerously misinformed in the coming months and augurs disastrous energy policy.Humanity has to “grow up” and tackle climate change, the prime minister told world leaders assembled in New York, predicting catastrophe if warnings are ignored.“We will see desertification, drought, crop failure, and mass … [Read more...]
Coal Shortages Threaten Blackouts for 2.7 Billion Chinese and Indians
Coal shortages have struck two of the world’s biggest energy consumers, threatening power outages for 2.7 billion people and raising prices for the fossil fuel to unprecedented levels. In China, factories are shut, homes remain in darkness, and chaos ensues on roads where traffic lights fail. Coal plants that supply neighboring India with 70% of its electricity are on the brink of running out of fuel, triggering an emergency call to the government for … [Read more...]
“Green” Europe Looks to Coal Again
In 1862 we got the Gettysburg Address, in 1941 it was Roosevelt’s Day of Infamy and in 1983 it was Ronald Reagan’s Evil Empire speech. This year it appears we’ll have to settle for Greta Thunberg’s “Blah, Blah, Blah!” keynote speech at the youth climate summit in Milan.As bad as it was on the merits, it certainly suffers from bad timing. Europe has just started paying a huge price in part for caving in on the sorts of environmentalist demands that Miss Thunberg … [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...]
Climate as a Public Health Issue
Never let a crisis go to waste. The Biden Administration took that advice and, on the eve of Hurricane Ida, announced that the Department of Health and Human Services had created an office for climate change – the climate is now a public health issue.“The office aims to protect vulnerable communities disproportionately affected by pollution and climate-driven disasters, including drought and wildfires,” Secretary Xavier Becerra said.However, this new mechanism to enforce socialist-style control … [Read more...]
Stop worshipping the sun: Biden’s solar power enthusiasm is unmoored from reality
On September 13, the New York Daily News ran my piece on the Biden Administration’s recent report which claimed the US could be getting 45 percent of its electricity from solar by 2050. (Never mind that Biden has said he wants to decarbonize the electric grid by 2035). In any case, I began the piece: Hyping solar energy is one of Washington, D.C.’s most renewable resources. Back in 1979, President Jimmy Carter declared the U.S. needed to capture more energy from the sun … [Read more...]
