The "Greens" promise renewables, solar and wind power, will replace fossil fuels. After all, the wind and sun are free, and they don't pollute!
Oops.
Now countries that embraced renewables are so desperate for power that they eagerly import coal, the worst polluter of all!
Do they apologize? No. Greens never apologize.
Germany was a leader in renewable energy, so confident in solar and wind power that they closed half their nuclear plants.
Oops.
That leaves Germans so short of power that Germans are now desperate to buy fossil fuels from Russia. Even worse, pollution-wise, high-pollution coal now tops wind as Germany's biggest electricity source. That's really disgusting.
Then, even after putting all that soot in the air, Germans pay more than triple what Americans pay for electricity.
For my new video, I confront German-born environmentalist Johanna Neumann of Environment America, a group that lobbies for 100% renewable energy.
I point out that despite massive subsidies, her beloved renewables still provide just 12% of our power. She responds, "Saying renewables are not yet powering our utility grid is like critiquing a 2-year-old for not being able to run a marathon."
A 2-year-old? I don't want to meet that kid. Renewables have been subsidized for 40 years, not two.

Green extremist Johanna Neumann should be forced to live in a yurt with a dung stove for heat and cooking through a Montana Winter.
Morality and energy? What a load of crap
The morality of such a statement is to exterminate the stupid person endangering us all by opening his mouth and spewing the garbage propaganda
The liberals never talk about the ecological disasters of “green” energy. “Greene energy” isn’t green.
Battery production is a disaster and windmills are filling dumps everywhere.
With only hand made attire. No patagonia or columbia or REI or carrhart or cabelas outerwear.
It is a cult and dangerous to our survival.

What they say is the goal is
“Zero Carbon Emissions”
I.e.
Every living animal that exhales must stop exhaling.
I.e.
Murder/ death cult.
I.e.
Satan.
If dangerous to our survival, why then are we sitting on our asses rather than eliminating people who are the cause of our existential problem?
“A mix of sources and resources yes.”
That is our plan as soon as the stars align, hopefully in the next 6-9 months. Solar and possibly a windmill backed up by propane.
👍👍
North America can claim 350 years of proven, recoverable coal.
Why the rush to “renewables?”
The Greens don’t care they love the power they have to Order people what to do
“The “Greens” promise renewables, solar and wind power, will replace fossil fuels.”
I still believe the Chinese will crack the mystery of Fusion Reactors and become the world’s leader in cheap, clean electricity production.
Uh, because we’re almost to the tipping point. Again. Where is the clock? 8.36 years or something?
Tree-hugging libtards will never face reality. When Stossel confronts her with pure, simple facts she would reply the "renewable energy is clearly better."
See the post right after yours, there you have the answer.
When the technology that renders wind and solar efficient and affordable exists, I’ll happily adopt it. When an electric vehicle can travel 300 miles on a charge at night with heat or AC on and recharge fully in 15 minutes, at a cost comparable to a gas or diesel-powered car, I’ll consider it. Until then, STFU.
