Josephus, it has become a belief very like a religion and they believe
that we must do all these steps to completely stop the burning of anything.
It is like flagellation, no matter how much it hurts it is better for us.
Many iridescent greens are just waiting for the inevitable social meltdown.

It reminds me of the Hell and Brimstone preachers of old.
Another similar religious simily is the ISIS purists.
I have no proof either way and the experts are arguing.
However there seems to be a lot of disputed symptoms that are contrary to the AGW "proof".
I doubt the greens solutions are rational and will achieve their aim.

None amswered my question;
If you take a number of power stations off the grid and replace them
with less wind and solar might there be a connection to blackouts ?
Further if you take more off the grid will there be more blackouts ?

Bazz,

It's just another reincarnation of socialism, and like every other reincarnation of socialism it will be ruinous.

“Much of the social history of the Western world, over the past three decades, has been a history of replacing what worked with what sounded good.” – Thomas Sowell

We replaced a system that provided cheap reliable power with one that doesn't because our betters thought they saw a system that sounded better. Green, free power that saved the planet. What could go wrong? Now that its gone wrong, they can't afford to admit error so double down on their error. T'was always thus.

We have not heard from those that deny the use of fossil fuel including coal and its by-products like bitumen for roads, waterproofing and cosmetics. Try creating the world's need of steel without coal fires. Even mini mills use Coke, produced from coal in the coke ovens, is used as a fuel and reductant in the blast furnace together with fluxes to produce pig iron. Natural gas is also commonly used as a supplementary fuel in the blast furnace.

It seems the Greens agenda is to produce a Venezuela and even worse, they haven't got a clue on how to care for a population.

Germany spent a trillion dollars on wind power and, as a result, power prices rose by 50%, with NO reduction in CO2 emissions.

China has now cut out all subsidies to unreliable windmills.

If all motorists decided to go for electric cars, electricity production would have to double.

Unreliable wind and solar is looking sillier by the day.

"If all motorists decided to go for electric cars"

In a development that is truly hilarious in its irony, Tesla and other EV owners have been complaining to the various manufacturers that, during the current extremely cold conditions in the USA, their batteries have been draining more quickly than usual, even when garaged overnight.

So the car developed to save the world from extreme heat, fails to operate when the world experiences extreme cold! Comedy gold.
