The climate hysteria is funded by rich dilettantes who make even more money off the renewable energy scam that follows in hysteria’s wake. That scam is subsidized by taxpayers and it raises their electric bills. It is a huge transfer of wealth from the low and middle income groups to the wealthy. These forms of energy production–primarily solar and wind, are not just expensive, they are unreliable–see the recent Spainish blackout–and they are environmentally destructive throughout their life cycle. The Center for the American Experiment, which I again urge you to join and follow, releases an outstanding report of the true environmental costs of these technologies. (CAE Report)
From obtaining the materials to manufacturing process to operations to disposal, the costs are laid out in detail. Anyone who thinks these forms of energy production are “green” should read this report. And the supposed environmentalists have done everything they can to cover this up–refusing to acknowledge the slaughter of millions of birds, some endangered, the disruption of marine life, the filling of waste sites with toxic materials. Why–because the environmentalists are funded by the same rich whackos who get all the subsidies. It is the typical joyful Dem cycle of political life–I create a program that delivers billions of dollars to you and you take a bunch of that money and give it to me as political contributions and probably bribes.
