Here’s an excellent article by Willis Eschenbach explaining why the “Green New Deal” and President Biden’s bright ideas about the XL Pipeline, and eliminating fossil fuels, and running the country on beautiful wind and solar energy are sheer bunk. That’s from the practical, technical side. You cannot run a huge modern industrial country on wind and solar energy. It simply does not work. Wind and solar cannot produce the needed energy. Dumping the XL Pipeline accomplishes nothing except to deprive thousands of people of their jobs, infuriates our close neighbors and friends to the north, and costs them billions to find another way to get their oil to the countries that purchase it. It can be transported by train, which is less safe than a pipeline. But it’s just so dumb. Doesn’t take a lot of studying-up to learn that you are barking up the wrong tree, but it does require some.
There is no climate crisis. The earth just goes on warming and cooling with the seasons, some years it’s particularly hot in the summer, some years there is way more snow in the winter. The climate seems to be controlled by the actions of the sun, rather than the exhausts of our motor vehicles. The administration seems to think that we can just switch to electric cars, and all will be well, but where do they think the electricity comes from? We have long since dammed all of our major rivers, and that does not begin to produce enough energy to run everything, Most of our electric power comes from burning fossil fuels. A little homework clarifies all, but the Biden administration doesn’t do that. Joe Biden is deeply involved in trying to undo anything done by the Trump administration, but the Trump administration did do their homework, and knew what they were doing. If the climate does eventually turn out to be in crisis, the Space Force will save us.
If you are interested, here is a copy of President Biden’s Executive Order.
