So it didn’t work like they said it would.

We would call that lying if a car salesman did it.

Wind and solar power for homes is a joke.

Apparently wind energy costs more than it saves.

More stupid government stuff they have no business doing.

So a $10Bn pound investment produced 243 GWh of power over a 25 year period, or nearly 10GWh per year. Perhaps you had better do the math.

Does the post-mortem include the millions of birds and bats killed during its lifetime?

"the windmill spent 75% of its life paying off the £10 million cost of its construction, and most of the rest paying for maintenance. In terms of effective energy revenue, the return on input cost was close to 1:1. ...For a typical fossil-fuel plant, effective energy revenue return on input cost is of the order of 50:1 if one considers the plant alone and about 15:1 when one includes the cost of the fuel. For a nuclear plant the ratio is more like 70:1..."

For a project promising to accommodate a doubling of the world population, wind power appears to fall short of even the most pessimistic expectations in every environment. Will the enviroweenie cult admit they were, once again, wrong in their utopian pipedreaming?

Is the Global Warming Policy Forum as leftist as it sounds? If so, how did this damning document end up on their site?

I visited with a 90 y/o patient today. She was ranting about Trump bringing the coal industry back to life. She said what is coal good for, there are better alternatives. I asked her what those were; of course, she didn’t know. Then she said, the sun! Why not use the roof for solar energy? I asked if she had $50,000 for solar panels. She was visibly stunned. LOL! She’s a hoot, but typically democrat clueless.
