Why are they so intent on stopping CO2. The elevated levels in the atmosphere are responsible for about 10 percent of the recent increases in agricultural output.

The test run was in Texas when, during a winter storm, the EPA required all the power plants that operated over a certain capacity to charge so much per hour that the utilities were forced into rolling blackouts. Test run complete.

That’s not a bug, that’s a feature!

That’s not a bug, that’s your dinner!

I bet there are some very wealthy people or Deep Staters where this won’t be a problem. /s

Sometimes you’re the windshield, and sometimes you’re the bug.

I knew it was coming. It is already happening here now and then. They are shutting off rural areas to prioritize the cities. Rural folks better learn how to minimalize, set up their own small system for the bare necessities, and learn to live without some modern luxuries.

There ain’t no stopping this reality. So the question is not “if”, the question is “when”.

And it is coming soon. Options are move to the city, or learn to live without the grid.

Strangely enough, I’ve been watching the Hunger Games movies on Youtube. It seems that Panem is about to happen.

Does anybody really think that the DC area is going to get rolling blackouts, hmmmmm?

Please, oh please, let those with the knowledge make sure that we ALL have names/addresses/schedules of each and every EPA member so that when this happens we can thank them in an appropriate manner.

At some point the climate Nazis and their government enforcers will have to be dealt with, and harshly so they won’t ever forget!

Well more than candles in the winter here in northern Michigan.

This could be a disaster for special homes with people on oxygen, and bakeries, etc.

When we have a storm here my husband takes generators to locations of both types near us.

I think these people need to go away.

Blackouts are a feature, not a flaw.

Destruction of the country is the purpose.

Why do you think they want you totally dependent on electricity?

Maybe DC could suffer some non-rolling blackouts...wink, wink, nod, nod.

I suspect that is were we are heading again. Maybe all the way back to whale oil for lamps. Of course, whales are protected so we will have to have a black market for that as well just about everything else.
