An "Expertly Executed" Transition?

Post by Riddick » 07-22-2022 03:16 AM

Earth is 4.5 billion years old. We’ve only been tracking temperatures for about 170 years. Any time someone says “Hottest day ever,” that person is lying to you.

Yet of course, there’s another summer heatwave and the Western world’s leftists are again raising the hysteria level to “We’re all going to die unless we end fossil fuels instantly.” Here are a few long view concepts:

There is nothing you eat, use, look at, wear, live in, travel with, or anything else that isn’t completely dependent on fossil fuels. Underlying every single aspect of our lives, fossil fuel is the difference between a life of strife, pain, and early death.

Without fossil fuel, nothing separates us from the pre-modern era. For 99% of the world’s population, life was short, painful, diseased, filthy dirty, hungry, and either too hot or too cold. Most people didn’t live past 40 & half of children died before 5.

Remove fossil fuels (without a nuclear substitute) and you are suddenly returned to life in a wood or dirt shelter, with only the most limited food and clothing, and really nothing else. In the transition from our world to that world, expect 80% of the earth’s population to die very quickly from starvation, disease, and violence.

People are being indoctrinated & manipulated to abandon modernity and return to the brutal, deadly past in ways they may not even realize. This meme is perfectly illustrative of the panic-mongering, propagandizing & brainwashing going on -

So, what're you gonna believe? "Settled science" or your lyin' eyes? Anyone who can't see where this is going doesn't have a lick of common sense left: though if you don’t mind death sentences, then the transition will be right up your alley -

Yet in fact, there is no energy 'transition' going on as both wind & solar have huge issues being made viable to scale up to meet modern day usage & thus, inherently & for all practical purposes, a massive scaling DOWN is what's actually in progress!

Despite incessant "green" propaganda, results of a recent poll seem to show on a basic personal level most Americans know pursuing this policy will not end well:
Just 32% of those answering the poll, which has a margin of error of +/-2.5 percentage points, said they support Biden’s climate change policy even if it means higher energy prices.

But a far larger majority of 57% answered in the negative. They either said they disagreed with his policies and want more and cheaper energy (41%), or don’t think climate change should be a U.S. policy priority (10%), or don’t even believe that the climate is changing (6%).
Will midterm voters throw their support behind the intellectually impoverished Woke party & its full speed ahead plan to end fossil fuels? Or will the lion's share instead voice their displeasure with a resounding roar of "HELL NO"? Stay Tuned!

Good Article. We all share excellent Articles. What we really lack is a large part of a "Socity that has No Ability to Comprehend but a tiny percent of any information and struggle to process THAT! For Instance, "Where is the bathroom?" Zombies (Woke) tend to have a low comprehension level. Until you mention Trump, then they just become, reactionary and emotional, no gray cell material required at all.

It's kinda like Pavlov's dog: with "Trump" in place of a bell ringing, all it takes is hearing the signal to make them even MORE insatiably spiteful & rabid animals. "DeSantis", "Abbott", "Youngkin", et al. produce similarly conditioned reactions -

With little else going for them, it's going apesh!t that gets them through the day.

Meanwhile, At The World Of Woke Extreme Training Institute

Post by Riddick » 07-23-2022 12:38 AM

All right now, non-binaries, gals & guys, let's all not be quiet or settle down! As a special treat, we'll start today's trigger session with a run-down of the big ones - "Desantis" Spin like a top in a panic! "Abbott" Run to your safe space! "Youngkin" Howl your lungs out! "Trump" Freak out from here to Sunday! Good responses.

Let's see what else you can do -
"Clarence Thomas" Crap on his lawn!."Brett Kavanaugh" Pee on his shrubbery! "Sam Alito" Fart in his general direction! - That's all for today's SCOTUS lesson. Next week, we'll chew up the Constitution

'Til then remember the institute's mission, students. Be bold. Be manic. Be proud in what you do, & above all, be the best certified irrational sh!theads you can be.

Green Energy Transition Hits the Wall

Post by Riddick » 09-20-2022 11:44 PM

There may be light at the end of the tunnel for fossil-fuel fans as the global government green energy transition experiences a head-on collision with reality.

It's the only way to tell Climatatistas their God is Dead. Facts & logic won't do it. Instead, the believers must experience decadence and nihilism and dead bodies floating down the Rhine and know, in their eternal recurrence, that their climate god isn't going to save them.

It's Not Funny, but the prospect of a cold winter without Russian gas in Europe seems to be the one thing the Klausi babies and Greta Thunbergs and gubmint-funded scientists didn't think about in planning their glorious Great Leap Forward to the green energy transition.

Humans have thrived thus far not through fearless predictions about the future but by adapting, again and again, to new conditions. That's what The Science says, ever since Darwin. Species survive and thrive by adapting to changes, not from top-down edicts from the great and the good or from the shop stewards of the union of seers and prognosticators.

In understanding of the world, the latest hottest science - that for some reason has not yet become fashionable among leading hostesses on Martha's Vineyard - is that we live in J.J. Clarke's Self-Creating Universe, and that the new things "emerge" from the various Keystone Kops pratfalls of gasses, liquids, solids, plants, animals, humans, and fossil-fueled SUVs and we don't know why.

It is really not a good idea to wreck the economy with green energy subsidies and pay-to-play research grants, just because you can. We cannot know yet how big the butcher's bill for green energy will be. But we do know this: the sooner the moment of truth arrives the less ordinary humans will suffer. Naturally, we all hope the liberal ladies of Martha's Vineyard won't be inconvenienced too much.

Consider what an amazing boon to humanity gasoline is: with a hundred pounds of gas in the tank you can drive the kids all day across the fruited plain to grandma's house. But it takes 6,000 pounds of battery to get your EV halfway to grandma's: assuming that the charging stations have electricity, California.

The whole green energy debacle demonstrates why the market economy beats elite diktats every time it is tried. It is because nobody knows which of a hundred new ideas will work, or what will stave off disaster, or whether the climate will heat up or cool down. All we know is a thousand Anybody business owners will outperform an administrative hierarchy of Somebody elitists by a couple of orders of magnitude, every time.

All you need to know about how mindlessly stupid the fanatical green energy crusade is can be seen in this chart:

Why Wind & Solar Will Never Work

Post by Riddick » 03-20-2023 12:05 PM

Enormous sums of money are being made by “green” fraudsters, utilities and politicians who tell us we are in the midst of a transition from fossil fuels to wind and solar energy. In fact, no such transition is underway; fossil fuel consumption is higher than ever. And no such transition will take place, ever, either in America or anywhere else in the world.

Why? Because wind and solar are both obsolete technologies. They produce electricity less than half of the time, a fact that will never change. How can we run a modern economy on intermittent energy sources? We can’t.

A liberal may admit wind and solar work only occasionally, but that is no problem, they will tell you, because the electricity they generate can be stored in batteries for later use. Power can be stored in batteries, of course. We all do this every day, storing tiny amounts on our laptops, smart phones and so on.

But our energy demands are almost unfathomably large, and all of the batteries in the world don’t begin to meet those needs. This graphic compares energy consumption in just one state in one country, as of 2019, with projected battery storage in the entire world as of 2030:

Image

You might as well rely on pixie dust as on batteries.

Batteries are also unbelievably expensive. The idea batteries will become less expensive is a fantasy. Leftists contemplate an increase in demand for batteries, and the raw materials (like lithium) they require, by orders of magnitude. That will make batteries vastly more expensive, not less expensive. This is one of the reasons greenies rarely offer cost estimates for their wind and solar mandates.

The turbines, solar panels and transmission lines (which they always leave out) are already too expensive. in addition you have to either build natural gas plants to operate most of the time, when wind and solar do nothing (greenies always leave out these costs, too) or else hypothesize an insane amount of battery storage (they don’t even try to calculate these costs, let alone consider them).

None of this is going to happen. The green grifters will be tarred and feathered and ridden out of town on rails long before we Americans all starve to death because our entire incomes, and all of our accumulated wealth, are being devoted to a fruitless search for batteries. In the meantime, we will suffer from unreliable energy characteristic of a third-world country. This is why we are now starting to have blackouts.

It is worth noting there is not a single demonstration project anywhere in the world–not one!–to try to show it is feasible to operate even a single city, town or village on wind and solar energy. The reason is, it isn’t feasible, and the people who are getting rich on the “green” fraud know it.

The political forces arrayed behind the wind and solar farce are formidable. But reality is more formidable still. The day of reckoning is coming, and is in fact not far off. Those who are impoverishing Americans and destroying our formerly-reliable electric grid should be storing their ill-gotten money in Swiss bank accounts, so they can make a hasty getaway when the whole enterprise comes crashing down.
