This is a terrific article. It's why my colleague Mitch and I always model the utility profits in our research. https://www.americanexperiment.org/reports/the-high-cost-of-100-percent-carbon-free-electricity-by-2040

This all makes sense now: frighten rate payers with end-times climate propaganda and they won’t complain much about skyrocketing energy prices. A racket indeed. 😵‍💫

It is a mixture of well meaning ignorance and sometimes malevolent motives by policy makers.

But until people really understand the "85% camel vs the 15% gnat" World energy use from 1965 -2022 that you (BF) highlighted in another post. We just will keep seeing endless ignorance and straight up malevolence tolerated by the masses of well meaning but deceived people concerning real solutions. Europe is in fear now of the winter 2022 and beginning of 2023. Hardship will also cause more to wake up. BF please highlight the 85% to 15% again and again. Solar and wind will not meet the need of the heavy diesel engines that civilization needs to function. BF 85-15😀
