    Jim Cramer had the CEO of a "green energy" company on his show to discuss the investment potential of coming "renewable energy" projects and tech.
    A closer look at it reveals it to be an environmental pollution nightmare of racks upon racks of lithium batteries, but that's a whole other kettle of poisoned fish.

    Here's what I found telling-
    Sounds impressive, huh?

    Okay, let's put that in perspective, shall we?

    And that's why solar is a joke.

    German Energy Expert Agrees: “Fission/Fusion Plus Hydrocarbs Only Realistic Energy Transition Next 50 Years”
    By P Gosselin on 14. March 2021

    Share this...
    Today, German energy expert Dr. Lars Schernikau comments on hydrogen, and what’s really the best energy carrier for the next 50 years.

    First, recall that hydrogen is NOT a source of energy such as uranium, coal, gas, oil, wind, solar, etc., but rather it is an energy carrier that needs to be produced by applying energy.

    Bossel 2009 said: “Hydrogen is a synthetic energy carrier: High-grade energy is required to produce, compress, liquefy, transport, transfer or store H2 (in most cases this energy could be distributed directly to the end user from wind or solar).”

    Hydrogen energy and what is the world’s best energy carrier
    By Dr. Lars Schernikau

    Green hydrogen (everyone is talking about it) can be produced via electrolysis from excess wind and solar electricity generation or in theory from any “green” source of power. Other than in desert states, such excess only exists in summers if at all. . . .

    ~ By the time battery technology evolves - if ever - we will likely have other energy source that rivals even nuclear. It will not be wind/solar .
    The beat goes on ... :plug:

    Can't you see the tapering off, in 2018 and 2019. And China plans to reach peak CO2 emissions in 2030.

    Nonsense. From the link above:
    ". . . In the fourteenth 5-year plan of the People’s Republic of China, which is being adopted these days, the Chinese Communist Party is pulling the wool over the eyes of the world. CO2 emissions are to be reduced by 18% in relation to gross national product (GNP) by 2025. That sounds great. But the GNP is supposed to increase by 6% next year and over the coming years years. So that would be 30% -18% = 12% additional CO2 emissions in the next 5 years alone. This increase is 1.2 billion tonnes of CO2, almost double Germany’s total emissions. . . . "
    And now more:
    China coal mine approvals surge despite climate pledges

    China coal use exploding, U.S. leads world in CO2 reductions, alarmist media conceal all this & much more

    Climate change: China aims for 'carbon neutrality by 2060' - BBC News

    China will aim to hit peak emissions before 2030 and for carbon neutrality by 2060, President Xi Jinping has announced.

    China has a good record of achieving its five year plans.


    Meanwhile: (on twitter)

    Reading 'The Deficit Myth' (by Stephanie Kelton) . Feels timely. We indeed need a Trade Peace and a Global Green New Deal

    which was replied to by Stephanie:

    The writing is hilariously on the wall here, but people want to pretend that a bipartisan, multi-trillion dollar climate-infrastructure package can and must be “paid for” with new tax revenue. Wake me when reality sets in.

    Duh. The Chinese are lying. And I don't care about Stephanie, whoever she is.

    Electric Cars Lose Attraction Among Germans…Results Of New Allensbach Survey “Astonishing”
    By P Gosselin on 16. March 2021

    Share this...
    Bad news for the acceptance of electric cars in Germany as new survey finds results “astonishing”.

    German online weekly FOCUS reports according to several Allensbach surveys that although there is a strong interest in environmentally friendly mobility among people, they don’t view electric cars as being particularly practical, let alone green.

    E-car “out of the question”

    Fifty five percent, a majority, said the purchase of an electric car is out of the question. and only 29 percent can imagine buying an electric car in principle.

    The cold wintry weather last February led to a drop in enthusiasm for electric mobility among German motorists because the wintry weather “apparently led to a critical debate about the performance of e-cars”. . . .

    ~ I remember the all electric "Gold Medallion" homes during the 1960's in California. Natural gas hearing and stoves/ovens were missed .

    Range anxiety is the chief concern, which will be overcome by quadrupling the number of charging stations.

    Using CLICK BAIT Conspiracy DISINFORMATION sources? :eek:

    These are the OP's TWO primary sources of bovine excrement.

    https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/notrickszone/

    https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/watts-up-with-that/

    :roflol:

    Obviously the OP has ZERO interest in a GENUINE Science based discussion using CREDIBLE sources.

    Sad!

    This CLICK BAIT thread belongs in the CONSPIRACY forum IMO.

    The use of Liquid Air Batteries that obtain their STORED power from wind and solar provide a GREEN grid level solution using EXISTING technology.



    This TECHNOLOGY already EXISTS.

    All that is needed is the IMPLEMENTATION at the GRID scale.
