It\u2019s Not About Saving the Planet, It\u2019s the Big Daddy We Need To Look For<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/header>\n
\"Saving<\/div>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

For perspective, $4 billion equals about 28 billion DKK. Orsted\u2019s equity is 76 billion DKK, so that $4 billion hit is equivalent to some 37% of its market cap. How the hell did they get it that wrong? Perhaps we can just put it down to delusional expectations that pervaded in the wind industry and still pervade today.<\/p>\n

Remember: your energy bills have skyrocketed in order to subsidise bird-killing wind turbines that don\u2019t work. You may think it\u2019s just silly and those pushing this agenda are simply delusional, but this is actually part of the Net Zero agenda to deliberately deindustrialise (and thereby impoverish) the West, while China and other countries unashamedly continue to capitalise on the huge economic prosperity afforded by the use of fossil fuels.<\/p>\n

None of this has anything to do with saving the planet, and everything to do with demolishing our standard of living, demolishing our economic prosperity and transforming the former middle class into a neo-feudal peasant class.<\/p>\n

  • From Wall Street Silver:\u00a0\u201cNet Zero was never viable. It is impossible to completely remove CO2 from our energy needs and overall economy. Politicians are just now beginning to realize that. Just about every modern technology requires oil, natural gas and\/or coal in order to function. Many of the metals required need to be mined and new deposits are often remote with no access to the electric grid.\u201d<\/em><\/li>\n
  • Then there\u2019s this from The Travelling Scientist:\u00a0\u201cThe Paris accord interestingly promotes \u201cnon-fossil biocarbon-based\u201d CO2 sources as being okay and counts towards net zero\u2026 so cutting trees and burning wood is no problem to the regulators, and becoming ever more popular to meet regulations companies are even patting themselves on their backs in their quarterly reports for doing so.\u201d<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
