A mixture of wishful thinking and childish pipedreams, there’s nothing inevitable about the so-called ‘transition’ to wind and solar – Sunset remains a fixed feature of daily life, as does stubbornly calm weather. But the acolyte and rent seeker would have us believe that these natural phenomena are either trivial obstacles to be overcome – with mythical mega-lithium-ion batteries – or a fossil-fuel backed, right-wing conspiracy.

Pushing reality to the sidelines and perpetually confusing the cruelly tangible with the woke and desirable, those still pitching an all wind and sun-powered future are untroubled by earthly concerns such as economics and physics.

As Mark Mills details below, wind and solar have been hopelessly overrated by those with nothing more than a wish to believe.

Are we heading toward an all-renewable energy future, spearheaded by wind and solar? Or…

If you visited the Supreme Court in the days following the leak Monday night of a draft majority opinion in the abortion case known as Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, you would have seen many signs saying, “My body, my choice.”

Choice means options, and it implies empowerment. But that isn’t the message of pro-abortion activists, one adoption advocate says.

The anthem of pro-abortion activists long has been that they’re “pro-choice,” Herbie Newell, president and executive director of Lifeline Children’s Services, says, but “the only choice that they’re providing is abortion.” Pictured: A pro-choice protester holds a sign Tuesday outside the courthouse in Reno, Nevada.

Sure, China profits from the great wind and solar scam, but it comes with a toxic legacy caused its rare earth processors that make it all possible.

Every wind turbine, every all-EV and every solar panel critically depends upon a myriad of so-called ‘rare earths’.

The minerals in question have become ‘rare’, of late, as a consequence of the Western world’s insatiable appetite for ‘feelgood’ electricity generated by sunshine and breezes, occasionally stored in giant lithium batteries, as well as the thirst among the truly virtuous for the ultimate exhibition of moral posturing: the all-electric vehicle.

As the demand for rare earth minerals continues to grow, principally driven by subsidised wind and solar and all-EVs, so too does the mountain of toxic filth left behind during mining and, particularly, processing.

Much of the processing occurs in upcountry China; a veritable earth away from the places where homes glisten with solar…
