A deep, somewhat technical discussion of why solar and wind energy will not replace fossil fuels in winter in the northern hemisphere. Interesting.

Around 22,000 households in Colorado lost the ability to control their thermostats after the power company seized control of them during a heatwave.
After temperatures soared past 90 degrees, residents were left confused when they tried to adjust their air conditioning and found locked controls displaying a message that said “energy emergency.”
Completely losing control over the temperature of your own home is presumably one of the many benefits of the green energy ‘Great Reset’ Americans will be forced to endure.
This story is yet another example of how smart meters will pave the way for energy rationing.
No doubt Americans who have them installed will increasingly find their thermostats remote controlled at the behest of energy companies whenever a dubious ‘crisis’ can be declared.
And if that sounds bad, just imagine what will happen if net zero green energy ‘climate lockdowns’ become normalized.
People in major European countries are already having their thermostats regulated in response to the energy crisis.
In Spain, at the height of summer, authorities have controversially banned air conditioning from dropping below 27°C (80.6°F) in all non-residential buildings, including shops, cinemas and cafes.
Onerous fines for those who flout the rules run all the way up to €600,000 euros for “serious violations.”
Similar rules have also been announced in Germany, Italy and France.

But Democratic leaders have only themselves to blame. They counterproductively sought legislation that would have sharply increased energy prices, and added to the deficit, at a time of skyrocketing inflation, with energy as a major if not main cause. While Democrats pitched their bill as aimed at solving climate change, it was at heart a massive, $300 billion subsidy package for producers and consumers of wind turbines, solar panels, and electric vehicles.

inMore evidence that climate change, which has _always_ been occurring – is not human caused ’cause we are relatively new to the world – is the result of changes in the geometry of earth’s orbit around the sun.
Green idiocy is political, not scientific!
