A fundamental problem with wind and solar is that they are extremely low-intensity energy sources. The amount of land required to produce a substantial amount of electricity is enormous.
It is ironic that wind and solar energy are promoted as “green,” when in fact one of their worst qualities is the damage they do to the environment. Solar panels are manufactured in China using slave labor (Uighurs) and coal-fired power plants for electricity. The irony is heavy.
The average cost of electricity generated by wind turbines has almost doubled in three years, and yet governments continue their irrational policies that can only drive the cost of power higher. The one thing that could make the situation catastrophically worse is if governments imposed drastic new demand on the electric power grid by making us all drive electric vehicles. But no, they could never be that stupid. Could they?
I think Biden WAS that stupid, Fred. Or at least his puppet-masters were that stupid.
Well said, Fred.
“The average cost of electricity generated by wind turbines has almost doubled in three years, and yet governments continue their irrational policies…” Those smart enough to gain the power to make those decisions aren’t irrational. They are venal. They benefit.
Thanks, Triad, for promulgating this excellent video.
This is an important topic, J. Sobran. If people (and governments) don’t wake up, we will all be facing lower living standards. And people would get hurt badly as a result in various ways.
