The Cooling UK
This story in the UK Telegraph by Christopher Booker is a chilling account (no pun intended) of the Brit's disastrous energy policy influenced by decades of fake global warming data from East Anglia and their adherence to the European Union's ridiculous CO2 targets. As England endures its third record cold winter, the people are shelling out record amounts of money for heat along with record amounts of tax money for ineffectual wind farms. I'm afraid England is the canary in the mine shaft for the United States on a number of issues. If they're buried under immigration woes, fifth column terrorists, and politicians' goofy Global Warming scams, I wonder how far we are behind them. It would be incredibly uplifting if the Brit's revolted with a reversal of fortune, starting with their uncaring politicians that spend more time worrying about the warming earth than their freezing citizens.
I like the wind farm technology, although it certainly isn't the single answer to our energy concerns. But it makes sense to diversify and who knows what new advances will help some particular energy form take off.
I think you missed the point of the article, Charles. Mr. Booker points out the Brit's are freezing, their millions of pounds already spent on wind turbines only produces 1/200th of their need, and they're about to lose their coal plants due to EU Global Warming fraud which are their only reliable energy source. On top of that Gordon Brown wants to launch a '100 billion pound green revolution'. Wind farm technology is already a failed experiment for the Brit's.
I was responding more generally to the issue. Wind is a perfectly good energy source under many circumstances. If you mean that wind farms fail to provide for all energy needs of a population, then certainly that's going to fail. Surely no one would expect that to be the case. Surely, though, no one would think either that wind energy is not worth pursuing as a possibility.
One thing we do know, eventually we will run out of fossil fools. If the human race survives long enough, that is. That's an undisputable fact. So it makes sense to pursue possible alternative fuels, without giving up on reliable current fuels of course.
Definitely giving up on conventional fuels when we're no where near supplying the demand with alternative sources is a bad idea which was Mr. Booker's point. I hope a bunch of folks in Britain don't get sacrificed at the Global Warming altar.
