The WEF 2030 conference in Lucene in May 2021 will seek world support for the The Great Reset: “you’ll own nothing and you’ll be happy” that’s okay if you like communism and never mind if you have never voted for this outfit. Among the main points of interest: US won’t be the world’s leading super […]

HUGE WINTER FIRES IN THE 1950’S
A mountain brush fires are nothing new in winter. In December 2, 1958 a fire in Malibu Beach USA, destroyed thirty six homes and was pronounced as bad as a previous winter fire two years earlier. The 1956 fire, whipped up by high winds and with low humidity, destroyed thirty homes. But there’s another reason […]
JOHN KERRY NOW CLIMATE ENVOY
Comments from John Kerry, soon to be the United State Climate Envoy in the Biden administration, had previously explained how the greenhouse theory works: “Try and picture a very thin layer of gases – a quarter-inch, half an inch, somewhere in that vicinity – that’s how thick it is. It’s in our atmosphere. It’s way […]
NUCLEAR POWER BECKONS AS EMISSIONS CLIMB
ADOPT CO2 FREE NUCLEAR ENERGY OR REDUCE POPULATION Our quality of life and our population growth could not have been achieved without Fossil Fuels but scientists now say we must find an alternative power source because increasing carbon dioxide emissions from the burning of coal and natural gas is causing dangerous global warming. In the […]
WIND TURBINES USE ELECTRICITY FROM GRID
ELECTRICITY FROM THE GRID IS NOT ACCOUNTED FOR IN THEIR OUTPUT FIGURES Coal, gas, thermal, hydro and nuclear power stations have a life span of 45+ years that can be easily extended if maintained properly. Solar and wind turbines have a life span of 10 to 20 years. Any cost analysis would quickly determine that […]
RECORD CO2 LEVEL DESPITE WORLD LOCKDOWN
CARBON DIOXIDE CONCENTRATIONS HAVE INCREASED DESPITE A PREDICTED FALL It is early days, but their is no indication that the current lock down of the world’s economies have resulted in a reduction of global carbon dioxide concentrations, in fact, after only eleven days into May (at 417.16 ppm) they have increased by one part per […]
DOOMSDAY CLOCK EVER CLOSER TO MIDNIGHT
THE DOOMSDAY CLOCK IS WITHIN ONE HUNDRED SECONDS OF MIDNIGHT According to the United Nations the greatest level of peril to humanity since its creation in 1947 is the threat posed by climate change and the growing nuclear threat. On climate, two major UN summits fell dismally short of the action required to limit the […]
AS GOES FOSSIL FUELS AS GOES HUMANITY
POPULATION GROWTH BEGAN WITH FOSSIL FUELS To a first approximation, everything we’ve done since 1900, including agriculture, has been the result of our use of fossil fuels. The biophysical driver of fossil fuel energy transcends all political boundaries and philosophies. Fossil fuels have supplied 89% of the total primary energy used throughout the world over […]
PRE-INDUSTRIAL TEMPERATURE NOT CERTAIN
ANTHROPOGENIC WARMING ABOUT ONE DEGREE ABOVE PRE-INDUSTRIAL LEVELS But what if global temperatures exceed the tipping point for one or two years and then drop away like they have in the past, just as they had during the thirty nine year cooling period that took place between 194o-1979, despite a rapid increase in GHG emissions […]
WIND FARMS NEED MASSIVE SUBSIDIES TO EXIST
NEED FOSSIL FUELS FOR MANUFACTURE-TRANSPORT-INSTALLATION-MAINTENANCE The fact that oil is a “finite” material is not a problem. Every material is finite. Life is all about taking the theoretically finite but practically limitless materials in nature and creatively turning them into useful resources. The fossil fuel industry does it, renewable actually, the unreliable energy industry doesn’t. […]
