Thoughts for the day Wind farms and solar farms have run their race and will not proceed as it has been determined the astronomical costs are not sustainable. An intermittent form of energy as the main component is unacceptable to industry and the population at large. The shelf life of solar and wind infrastructure is short term and replacement is cost prohibitive. Nuclear is a good option as well. Here's a small sample of how many coal plants there are in the world today. I could go into using the advanced technology of thermally efficient, supercritical steam generators using our own world's best metallurgical coal; but what's the point, it is treated as hearsay and political hyperbole here in Oz. The EU has 468 plants, building 27 more for a total of 495. They tell everyone else it's their responsibility to 'Save The Planet' from Climate Change, typical Europeans; morals are a philosophy, honesty is a heresy! Turkey has 56 plants, building 93 more, total 149 South Africa has 79, building 24 more, total 103 India has 589, building 446 more, total 1036 The Philippines has 19, building 60 more, total 79 South Korea has 58, building 26 more, total 84 Japan has 90, building 45 more, total 135 AND CHINA has 2363, building 1171, total 3534 And our AUSTRALIAN politicians are going to shut down our 6 remaining plants and save the planet.

[@johngeier8692]

It is a popular delusion that mans effects on the earth’s climate are significant and dangerous. The carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuels are actually beneficial since both the mean surface temperature of Earth and the current atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration are both suboptimal for plant growth. Benefits include increased agricultural yields (main effect) reduced winter heating costs and fewer deaths from hypothermia. It is a popular delusion that transitioning to non fossil fuel energy sources will be cheap and easy. Wind has a low energy density and wind power is centuries out of date. Wind farms only exist due to massive taxpayer funded subsidies. They make no economic sense. Solar panels are only economical in sunny areas between the 35th parallels. Even in favourable areas there is a major mismatch between peak supply and peak demand. The costs entailed in storage, back up and transmission are astronomical. The delusional insanity of Net Zero needs to be urgently abandoned and the most economical energy resources available need to be utilised. Our current government is acting contrary to the national interest.

It is vitally important that any feelings of guilt or responsibility are not used to justify inventing a culture that was never there. This would indeed be corrupt and wrong, our European collective guilt should not then motivate and inspire us to pretend and counterfeit a culture. There was and is documented authentic Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait cultural history, and it is the responsibility of Australians to encourage this true history to be embraced over the current desperate pretend and counterfeit Aboriginal and Torres Strait cultural history. The opinion that the colour of your skin, or the antecedents of an individual are the defining factors is narrow-minded, backwards, bigoted, racist, discriminatory, prejudiced, unfair, and insulting. Yet it's been the dominant thinking in the Australian government, Universities, the Australian media, (particularly the ABC) and general public discourse for decades. This retrogressive, confused, righteous stupidity has to be walked back. Australia will be burning witches again if this level of ‘objectiveness’ and ‘honesty’ continues. Talk about full circle, Australia has returned to its narrow-minded, dogmatic, bigoted racists views again!!! And this isn’t the 1940’s It’s 2023, and anybody questioning the current racist, bigoted, intolerant, and prejudiced attitudes flowing from the left the "Humblebragers," virtue signalling, "greenwashing," brain washed, "Slacktivists," and "Performative activists," will be met with boisterous displays on top of the already cacophonous display. We Australia no longer need logic and reasoning, we only need belief. Repair our national unity, cease the government funded accusations and recriminations ‘witch trials’ against villainous white Colonialism, and the irreproachable, eternally virtuous Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders. It's fundamentally harmful, perverse, and wrong. Either we’re (Australians) are all villainous, or we are all virtuous, race (culture) plays no part in this matter, circumstance! The generational attack, offensive,assault on muti-cultural Australia has left us divided, and embarrassed of Australia’s wonderful past. All to serve the self seeking, selfish interests of a very small militant, embittered and clearly corrupt organisation. The goal of separatism seems to be this small ‘elite’ group within an equally small group's agenda. This small ‘elite’ group has garnered a great deal of power, and influence thanks to some very clever, and less than honest use of every available manipulation available to them, especially the weaponization of race. Our nation's genuine history has been entirely subverted throughout the last two decades with: ‘truth’ telling that there is now virtually only one Australian hero, the innocent, entirely virtuous Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander’s who were wronged by ‘white men throughout their innocent, and entirely virtuous histories. The echo chamber that has created ‘The Voice’ in its current form needs to take a long hard look at themselves; and their shameful, unjust, and discriminatory doctrine of critical race theory. And instead of pronouncing: racism, discrimination, unfairness, and bigotry upon any Australians who stand against ‘The Voice’ in its current form. They should examine the structural racism they intend to widen and inflate with the same furious incrimination. Hope Victoria wakes up to: running with the vibe. You can’t hand billions over to a small corrupt, biased, prejudiced, and discriminatory group because they a)may or may not look like 'Stan Grant.' b) may or may not have relatives who say they had relatives who ‘owned everything, everywhere,' Australia.

Cannot wait for my solar bbq , i will go hungry cant cook my snags

[@johngeier8692]

Wind has a low energy density and wind power is centuries out of date. Wind farms only exist due to massive taxpayer funded subsidies. They make no economic sense. Solar panels are only economical in sunny areas between the 35th parallels. Even in favourable areas there is a major mismatch between peak supply and peak demand. The most absurd aspect of all of this economically destructive delusional insanity is that the carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuels are actually beneficial. Benefits include increased agricultural yields (main effect) reduced winter heating costs and fewer deaths from hypothermia. We need to withdraw from the Paris Accord forthwith and use the most economical energy resources available.

[@AndrewLester-r3l]

Once they only have solar/windmills there won't be enough for everyone/suburb and some places won't have electricity regularly forever after.

[@Bossman_aus]

Genuine question. Let’s say Labour get the boot and liberal or one nation get in will it be possible to for them to rescind all these wacky new laws and go back to fossil fuels?

[@haruchai]

Labor couldn't plan a drinkathon with the keys to the bottleshop and 20 bogan mates.

[@fredbear-sf9st]

Everything about Labor is going from bad to disastrous

[@andrewbrown8463]

The main thing that’s wrong about this video is to suggest Labor had a plan. It was just a three word slogan.

[@seanyuke3249]

Energy is a constant. End of story.

[@S.Carrick]

Gone from having our wonderful hydro power, to having no power, almost, marinus was a dumb idea. Glad we have our own power and water supply.

[@carbonite1999]

politicians are not electrical engineers , so dont ask one about their power when your asking about power !

[@MelRussell-os6wf]

[@maricvernon6152]

Albo is only good for fighting 'Tories' and having a beer at the tennis. Struggling to think of anything else he's good at....
