Peter Hitchens exposes "Net Zero" emissions lunacy
Twitter/X ^ | April 3 | Peter Hitchens

Peter Hitchens unapologetically exposes the ludicrous nature of Net Zero, to the horror of BBC Question Time panellists and audience members.

"We didn't just close down our coal fired power stations, we blew them up, we were so certain we were right to do so. At the same time, China is building the equivalent of two new coal fired power stations a week. India has a vast expansion programme of coal fired power stations."

"The contribution which this country is making to these outcomes is not merely minimal, it's non-existent. Everything that we do is completely blotted out by what much larger countries are doing to maintain their own power."

"If you want to live in a country where nobody can afford to heat their house... if you want lots of people to lose their jobs because there's no energy, if you want to be cold all the time... then carry on believing that the demand to go for Net Zero is intelligent and thoughtful."

He is right. The power is going to start going off.

Only then will people get it.

“COROLLARY: The end of “fossil” fuels is the end of food.”

And the end of farms and ranches are the end of food as well.

Satan hates mankind.

They think they are bigger than their country and owe their country no loyalty whatsoever.

Even Peter Hitchens doesn’t get it. More CO2 in the atmosphere if good for humanity. India and China building their coal plants are quite unintentionally our benefactors.

The UK is too far down the rabbit hole .

There will be power cuts and such. It’s inevitable.

The capacity lost cannot be filled by Wind Farms which ironically need huge generators themselves.

This isn’t about “the climate”.

It’s about control.

This crap was started in the late 60’s by The Club of Rome, precursor to the WEF.

In the climate movie, it mentions that China is estimated to be building 2 new coal plants a week and is using more coal than the rest of the world combined. (at the 1:14:50 mark in the movie)

For my best wok cooking I use a propane tank with a nice burner. I have to be careful not to get the burner going too hot. Beef is done quick with a slight char on the outside and medium rare inside. Pork and chicken have to be turned quickly and the veggies go in quick with a slosh of cornstarch and water. Stir fry is done in 30 seconds and I shut off the fire. My wok with its 25 years of service has a black carbon non-stick surface from the years of cooking.

In England as in America many important and far reaching decisions are being made by people who are in fact delusional. And for the umpteenth time : No hyperbole.

They are delusional and the power cuts are baked-in now.

You can’t just not replace that capacity with wind farms and solar.

It was always a fantasy/.

Sadly, we will have power cuts and higher bills

As the freeper above said, they’re delusional politicians

They actually believe everything will be fine and dandy.
