Failed Climate Predictions - The Narrative Of Fear Keeps Chugging Along

Anyone who follows the global alarmist's narratives has witnessed the numerous fearmongering predictions of the end of times due to the world's dependence on fossil fuels. Since the late 80's, we 've been bombarded by various doomsday claims from supposed scientific authorites. For those paying attention and keeping score, the track record of these scientific predictions of doom and gloom have failed miserably to produce the predicted results. 

As a refresher, Con Allen via his…

Solar Panels Need Air Conditioners to Maintain Efficiency

            How Does Heat Affect Solar Panel Efficiencies?

It may seem counter-intuitive, but solar panel efficiency is affected negatively by temperature increases.  Photovoltaic modules are tested at a temperature of 25 degrees C (STC) – about 77 degrees F., and depending on their installed location, heat can reduce output efficiency by 10-25%.  As the temperature of the solar…

Ukraine, The Grift That Keeps On Grifting

Well, we can't destroy Russia on the battlefiled - Ukraine is being destroyed, so what are we to do? The answer, throw out the rule book and make them a member of NATO and the EU, pour billions of dollars into a reconstruction boondoggle and call it good. And don't forget 10% for the Big Guy. 

Sounds crazy, right? Well, it's being openly discussed and promoted at the Ukraine Recovery Conference.

Here's a report via The Guardian:…

Maine Center For Public Interest Reporting – Three Part Series: A CRITICAL LOOK AT MAINE’S WIND ACT

******** IF LINKS BELOW DON'T WORK, GOOGLE THEM*********

(excerpts) From Part 1 – On Maine’s Wind Law “Once the committee passed the wind energy bill on to the full House and Senate, lawmakers there didn’t even debate it. They passed it unanimously and with no discussion. House Majority Leader Hannah Pingree, a Democrat from North Haven, says legislators probably didn’t know how many turbines would be constructed in Maine if the law’s goals were met." . – Maine Center for Public Interest Reporting, August 2010 https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/wind-power-bandwagon-hits-bumps-in-the-road-3/From Part 2 – On Wind and Oil Yet using wind energy doesn’t lower dependence on imported foreign oil. That’s because the majority of imported oil in Maine is used for heating and transportation. And switching our dependence from foreign oil to Maine-produced electricity isn’t likely to happen very soon, says Bartlett. “Right now, people can’t switch to electric cars and heating – if they did, we’d be in trouble.” So was one of the fundamental premises of the task force false, or at least misleading?" https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/wind-swept-task-force-set-the-rules/From Part 3 – On Wind-Required New Transmission Lines Finally, the building of enormous, high-voltage transmission lines that the regional electricity system operator says are required to move substantial amounts of wind power to markets south of Maine was never even discussed by the task force – an omission that Mills said will come to haunt the state.“If you try to put 2,500 or 3,000 megawatts in northern or eastern Maine – oh, my god, try to build the transmission!” said Mills. “It’s not just the towers, it’s the lines – that’s when I begin to think that the goal is a little farfetched.” https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/flaws-in-bill-like-skating-with-dull-skates/
