2. If the ecowanker/climageddonists truly believe, they should divest themselves of ANYTHING and EVERYTHING that has been in anyway produced or associated with the use of fossil fuels. Manufactured items, transported items etc. EVERYTHING. No? Why not? The smell of dung fires from the porch of your mud hut not that inviting as you slap at the myriad of insects attacking you?
We’re shutting down 100 coal fired plants a week while Red China is firing up 1000 a week.
Week is probably the wrong units.
It’s not for everyone, just a select few.

Change "week" to "every two years"
>>and of course to spend us into oblivion without acknowledging any consequence for their actions.
With debt comes default comes collapse comes Marxism.
We need to get past debating them from the standpoint that they actually BELIEVE in what they’re pushing and into just who these people are and what they REALLY want for America and the rest of the West. Until then, we will NEVER be able to properly deal with them, and they’ll continue to advance on us.
And the FIRST STEP in fighting back is to acknowledge that their leaders are SMART, VERY SMART, and far smarter than we are. For example, while our leaders were busy ‘debating’ and going to the gym with their “friends across the aisle”, they were installing several hundred highly trusted people in key positions, in key states, to count votes (using what was ACORN as cover to organize), and thereby flip a national election to a party that represents no more than 40% of the country (if that).
We need to quit thinking they believe what they claim and instead deal with just who they really are.
All the grid needs is four days of backup. NY electricity comes from afar, generation will come back online in little time.
This year, it has yet to hit even 80 degrees. Even here in Southern Connecticut. Although the past couple of days have been fairly nice (low 70s), it still drops into the low 40s at night. In fact, just three days ago, my car lit up the "freeze" light on my way to work. It was 37 degrees in the middle of May!
Global warming is one of the biggest scams ever.
You story illustrates why the fascist environmentalists have changed “Global Warming” to “Climate Change”.
Now any unusual weather of any kind is due to made-made climate change. And we must spend billions of dollars to fix the problem, before it’s too late.
And note the word “fascist” in my first paragraph. It’s there because no debate is allowed on this topic.
“We’re shutting down 100 coal fired plants a week while Red China is firing up 1000 a week.”
LOL!
“546 coal-fired power units have retired in the US over the past decade”
Beyond any green fantasies, the main reason for this is economics. Technologies evolve. Right now a mix of renewables and natural gas is much cheaper than coal.
It may come that renewables + batteries are the cheapest way to power a country. We are far from that now, but batteries prices are dropping every year.
Bah, that little dusting? We received 14” out of that storm, today is beautiful though at a heat stroke inducing 66f.
No soul on eart knows what the correct "temperature" should be...what the correct "proportions should make up the atmosphere at any point in time.
What we're doing to alter "climate" is a solution that has no solution. It's a farce.
They do t care if it can do the job, in fact I would say they don’t want it to be viable, because this would then give gov more power as society comes to a screeching g halt, and mandates can then be put in place to deal with the ‘crisis’
The northern portions of the United States get cold in the winter.
Idiots who believe in batteries in the winter are mouth-breathing morons who learned nothing of the physical sciences in high school or college.
Our industrialized society cannot function without power from petroleum products. The dems WANT it shut down. That will enable china to become the major producer for the whole world. The USA will become a turd world country.
I might use 500 kilowatt hours of electricity per month in the Florida summer.
A electric car battery would normally be kept close to being fully charged in everyday life and might have 50 kilowatt hours of charge on average. That’s three days supply.
Most households have two motor vehicles, one for the woman of the house, and one for the man of the house. Often Junior has a car too.
In NYC, there might be a problem connecting the family apartment to the family car batteries. It could be done with smart technology.
In the suburbs, car-to-house connection involves plugging in a cord. If you forget to connect, your smartphone could let you know.
“Any kind of cold wreaks havoc on batteries.”
...and the car battery thermostat switched on to keep the batteries efficient.
