The Dangerous Fantasy of Scotland’s Net Zero Energy Transition

The Energy Transition Will Run Through the Copper Gauntlet
The Energy Transition Will Run Through the Copper Gauntlet And it may not survive Image by Dijana from Pixabay Since the 2018 IPCC climate report laid out the calamitous consequences of our unbridled carbon emissions, every pathway published by academics and think tanks that claim to save us from ourselves involves the expansion of solar and wind […]

What is the US “Gas Stove Ban” REALLY about?What sounds like overeach in itself, is actually a cover for something potentially far, far worse.
What is the US “Gas Stove Ban” REALLY about?What sounds like overeach in itself, is actually a cover for something potentially far, far worse. The Biden administration is apparently looking to ban gas stoves, calling them a “hidden danger”. But while that sounds bad enough, a deeper dive shows – as usual – it’s not […]
Europe Is Being Deindustrialized With a Purpose
Europe Is Being Deindustrialized With a Purpose Photo by Felix Mittermeier on Unsplash The sun is shining, birds are singing and natural gas demand destruction goes on unabated in the EU. One might ask here: why have TTF gas prices fallen below 70 Eur/MWh (1) actually to even lower levels than in Asia? Mainstream media tries to spin the story that […]
