What if the plan really is for civilization to crash and burn?

The harder they push the Gaia worship, the more pain it causes the middle class....and even the ethnic grievance groups Leftists rely on in elections. Ergo, the harder they push this, the more its going to result in a voter backlash.

The only question is how long it takes before people have had enough of it.

Good way to get rid of 6 billion unneeded people.

It’s about complete and total communist control of the planet to “save the planet.”

All about more power to them and removing all of our freedoms.

There will be many,many,*many* people freezing to death in this country this winter thanks to the EnviroNazis.Most will be older folks.But those scumbags,comfy as can be in mom's and dad's basement in Scarsdale,will hardly notice.

“Such a thing has not yet been invented, and it is not clear that it can ever be invented.”

But But But
All that is required to get ‘such a thing’ invented is for the government to pass laws requiring a ‘such a thing’ to be invented.
I think this is called the “California Way”.
That will do it.

Yup. Freezing starving people die. It's 1930's Ukraine all over again - just on a global scale. Weird coincidence that the very same nation should be a hotbed of contention again now.

My question is, are the folks that are shutting down farms, as directed from Brussels, the good guys? Will they demand that Ukrainian farms shut down as well once the folks who are forcing the global Holodomor (with a creamy pedo topping) manage to finally kick pootin' (who is a scumbag no doubt) out?

FTA: “some tens of thousands of gigawatt hours of storage, of a form that could store the energy for six or more months and then discharge over the course of months. Such a thing has not yet been invented, and it is not clear that it can ever be invented.”

Well, it does exist, it is called the Sun.
If only we had a useable form of that stored energy, held underground.

I think that have won. Its a globalist chant for Communism and even our cowardly Republicans won’t point that out.

Could have just read the last line:

"...The current cult of the academic, journalistic and governmental elites suffers from the eternal problem of all central planners. They think they are brilliant — and in some ways they might be (high scores on SATs?) — but they have no idea at all how to engineer an energy system that will work..."

But I disagree with the assertion: "We all eagerly await for their planned utopia to crash and burn."

I sure as hell don't eagerly await it. There is going to be pain, privation, starvation, war, sickness, and death.

It is going to happen, because Utopia is unachievable. But I wish common sense could drive the failure of these Utopia-Seekers, and not the pain, privation, starvation, war, sickness, and death of billions.

“The extremists may seem to have the upper hand at the moment, but the missing piece is that they have no idea how our energy system works,”

They don’t care how the system works, that’s not what winning is.
They have the levers of power, that’s winning.

It only matters who counts the votes. Voter backlash will never be observed.

The current, mainstream understanding of climate is wrong.
That misunderstanding leads to totally false/fake computer models.
When one assigns to climate the proper understanding - that of a thermodynamic system - then all shakes out correctly and with no misleading atmospheric influence. CO2 has naught to do with causing climate. The atmosphere merely converts the climate’s thermal store into weather.

If anyone looks at the long term graphs of temperatures, or thinks hard about the decay process of dead organisms, you have to almost laugh at the concept of climate change. Its ridiculous. The fact is that the world is normally about ten degrees hotter than it is now. The earth is about 4.5 billion years old. And in the first half of its life the world was too hot for almost all life to survive. After that there was a time when ice sheets covered the earth to the equator. But after that we have swung from much hotter than we are to much cooler. Right now we are below average. But the world can get 30 degrees warmer and still stay within the range it has been in without human interference.

And when the world gets warmer as it will surely do, it releases more CO2 into the atmosphere. And as it does things get greener. We are headed to the Garden of Eden. Alligator and palm tree fossils have been found above the arctic circle. Greenland was once very green. Plants and animals both cause CO2 release. They die, or shed parts that die like leaves or fur and poop. And that part decays. And if its exposed to the air we get CO2 in some form, often methane. But if its not exposed to air its stored underground as peat or natural gas or oil or coal. All were once on the surface in living things. And we dig it up, and it comes back to the surface. Not a problem. It was here before. Now its back.

What many people don’t understand is that CO2 is being produced far faster than we can burn it. Your lawn, your tree leaves, our dog, your grandmother are all sources of CO2. As are the forests and the prairies and the rivers and oceans. We don’t create CO2 its here. We dig up trapped CO2 and release it. Maybe our species is like an earthworm or a farmer tilling his fields. We are digging up trapped carbon and making it useful again. All part of nature’s and God’s plan.
