Is no reason not to go all in on something.
Richard Lyon- The Iron Law of Energy
THE PREVAILING NARRATIVE in Net Zero ideology is one of a seamless “clean energy transition”. The reality is that their supposedly necessary transition is unlike any in human history because it represents a move down the energy density ladder. Properly understood, the proposal is terrifying.
I read a similar article years ago…
this really got my attention… Understanding E=mc2 – https://fusion4freedom.com/understanding-e-mc2/
One elementary source of comparison is to consider what it takes to refuel a coal plant as opposed to a nuclear reactor. A 1000-MW coal plant – our standard candle – is fed by a 110-car “unit train” arriving at the plant every 30 hours – 300 times a year. Each individual coal car weighs 100 tons and produces 20 minutes of electricity. We are currently straining the capacity of the railroad system moving all this coal around the country. (In China, it has completely broken down.)
A nuclear reactor, on the other hand, refuels when a fleet of six tractor-trailers arrives at the plant with a load of fuel rods once every eighteen months. The fuel rods are only mildly radioactive and can be handled with gloves. They will sit in the reactor for five years. After those five years, about six ounces of matter will be completely transformed into energy. Yet because of the power of E = mc2, the metamorphosis of six ounces of matter will be enough to power the city of San Francisco for five years.
Bahhhhh, what a crock.
Look at Canada: powered by the rich tapestry of diversity.
It’s all easily explained by EROEI. Look it up.
You’re all wrong. Our planet will be energised by the sweet aroma of unicorn farts. Every Lieberal says so.
Canada has replaced physics and economics with the green Jonestown Kool Aid of net zero by voting in an appointee from Gaia whose fast talking has impressed the Eloi and with assistance from a media that is only interested in keeping the party that subsidizes it in power by keeping the discussion at the level of the mindless.
