Net Zero Will Require a Command Economy & Massive Drop in Living Standards, Says Cambridge Professor. And for What?
GUY DE LA BÉDOYÈRE: “The idea that Net Zero can be achieved on the current timelines by any means short of a command economy combined with a drastic decline in standards of living – and several unlikely technological miracles – is a blatant falsehood,” says Professor Michael Kelly, Emeritus Professor of Engineering at Cambridge …
But perhaps by 2050 the realisation will begin to dawn. There will not have been the slightest detectable impact on the climate. … But after spending all that money and throwing all that labour into Net Zero, the weather extremes, whatever they are and whatever they are caused by, will continue. …
There will be no impact on the climate for the lifetimes of those who have poured their lives and money into Net Zero. There will be no impact on the lives of their children, their children’s children, or for many generations after that. There will be no suspension of extreme weather events because extreme weather events are a fact of life and always have been. How many fewer extreme weather events would need to be counted for Net Zero to be deemed a success?

Solar industry lives off China slave labor – Slavery poisons industry’s supply chains
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2023/oct/11/slavery-poisons-solar-industrys-supply-chains/ By Miles Pollard Behind those harmless-looking solar panels harnessing the sun’s power lies a disturbing secret: Roughly 80% of solar components are manufactured in China using slave labor. Not only have the buyers of solar panels been indirectly funding companies that use slave labor, but American taxpayers have also subsidized almost $37 billion in purchases between 2016 and 2022. Globally, […]
The myth of affordable green energy is over – Progress is stalled around the world as nobody wants to admit the real costs
https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2023/10/10/green-energy-plans-wind-solar-power-myth/ By KATHRYN PORTER The pervasive narrative about offshore wind in recent years has been that costs are falling and that wind power is cheap. But scratch below the surface and you find that things are not quite so rosy. Turbine manufacturers have been losing money hand over fist in recent years. Collectively over the […]

Pope Goes Scorched Earth, Blames Climate Change On America’s ‘Irresponsible Lifestyles’ BY STEPHEN MOORE When I was growing up and attending Catholic schools, I was taught that the pope is infallible.

A new study zaps Biden’s plan to transform the electrical grid BY CRAIG RUCKER, Politicians, activists and lobbyists worried about a “climate crisis” and determined to compel a rapid transition from fossil fuels to “clean, renewable” energy seem to think it’s a slam-dunk process.
