Michael Moore and Driessen agree! Wind, solar and biofuel energy are devastating Planet Earth
A miraculous turn of events
Could the end of ethanol be in sight?
Last year more than 10 ethanol plants cut production rates or closed down. Many more are yet to follow. Time is long overdue to end the ethanol industry as we have known it for more than three decades.
The Green New Deal’s solar absurdity
Those who support the Green New Deal (GND) want what they claim to be the only real solution to the global warming problem which is solar power, and other so-called renewables to save our planet from the ravages of fossil fuel.
2007: a great year for growing bad legislation like the ethanol mandate
Back in 2007, states passed renewable portfolio standards at the same time the George W. Bush Administration was patting itself on the back for enacting the renewable fuels standard -- aka the ethanol mandate. Seven years later, most people see the flaws in this energy strategy, but the EPA continues unabated in its quest to push more ethanol into America's automobiles.
Keep carbon taxes in the ground
Permanently bury these job-killing proposals, after pounding wooden stakes through their hearts.
The avoidable energy crisis
The United States was built on abundant, reliable, affordable energy – first carbon, then hydrocarbon. We still get 85% of our energy from oil, natural gas and coal. These resources power America, sustain millions of jobs, and generate billions in revenue. We still have at least a 250-year supply of coal and many decades worth of oil and gas. However, too many politicians, bureaucrats and environmentalists are determined not to let us have this energy. America sent $337 billion overseas in 2010 to import 61% of its oil. We will spend much more this year, as growing demand worldwide, political chaos [...]
Welcome to the Third World
As Britain suffered through its coldest December in a century, families were forced to choose between keeping homes warm and feeding their children nourishing meals – thanks to climate policies that have forced extensive reliance on wind power and deliberately driven energy prices skyward. Barely two months later, the UK’s power grid CEO informed the country that its days of reliable electricity are numbered. Families, schools, offices, shops, hospitals and factories will just have to “get used to” consuming electricity “when it’s available,” not necessarily when they want it or need it. A new “smart grid” will be used to allocate [...]
Rural and coastal residents delay, block green energy projects
Environmentalists detest the ‘little guys’ who get in their way.
The true cost of Biden’s bet on BEVs
The $15,000 EV battery and its constant need for recharging would remain the biggest obstacles to public acceptance.
