With an impeccable sense of timing, some bright spark decided to make this UK Wind Week. Perhaps they should have called it UK NO Wind Week! Sat under an anticyclone, Britain’s contribution from wind power since yesterday has been less than 1GW, around 2% of the total electricity generated. This situation is expected to last a few more days yet. As ever, it is fossil fuels which have come to the rescue, with gas currently supplying 60% of the nation’s power, and even coal, which has been fired up to give 7%. Indeed, in the last day we have had more power from coal than from wind. Thirteen years ago, the Labour government promised us that wind power could be powering every home by this year. (I wonder where I have heard that lately!) We are governed by idiots. Full article: wattsupwiththat.com/2020/11/29/coal-outperforms-wind-power-during-uk-wind-week/

""Thirteen years ago, the Labour government promised us that wind power could be powering every home by this year. (I wonder where I have heard that lately!)"" Plenty of ,'could', 'might', 'maybe', etc. It's a pity that dummies like Hutton were not forced to put their mortgage behind their fatuous words ! In the USA Joe Bidet promised his green new deal, no more Oil or Gas and certainly no more Coal! just wind power and maybe Nuclear. NUCLEAR, !!! I hear you say, yes folks Nuclear is a possibility because it does not pollute.

In the USA Joe Bidet promised his green new deal, no more Oil or Gas and certainly no more Coal! just wind power and maybe Nuclear. NUCLEAR, !!! I hear you say, yes folks Nuclear is a possibility because it does not pollute. I suggest you watch Michael Moore's film: Planet Of The HumansYes, I'm well aware of Moore's reputation, but the road to Damascus is long and the conversion can come at any time. Michael Moore is worried about Earth, although he's not focused on fossil fuel and cow farts. Instead, he's worried because he just discovered that green energy is a scam. That's the point in his new documentary, Planet of the Humans
www.americanthinker.com/blog/2020/04/michael_moore_stumbles_upon_the_truth_about_socalled_green_energy.htmlYou can imagine the opprobrium he received for this film. “This attempt to take down our film and prevent the public from seeing it is a blatant act of censorship by political critics of Planet of the Humans. It is a misuse of copyright law to shut down a film that has opened a serious conversation about how parts of the environmental movement have gotten into bed with Wall Street and so-called “green capitalists.” There is absolutely no copyright violation in my film. This is just another attempt by the film’s opponents to subvert the right to free speech.” ...
Veteran climate campaigners and thinkers, such as Bill McKibben and George Monbiot, have pointed out factual errors, outdated footage and promotion of myths about renewable energy propagated by the fossil fuel industry. Many are dismayed that Moore – who built his reputation as a left-wing filmmaker and supporter of civil rights – should produce a work endorsed by climate sceptics and right-wing thinktanks.www.theguardian.com/film/2020/may/26/michael-moore-film-planet-of-the-humans-removed-from-youtubeNeedless to say, the attempt to take it down failed. Moore is now a traitor. Or more accurately, an heretic.

I watched Moores film and it was very interesting too and I am not surprised that the climate change frauds wanted it taken down. It does seem that Moore did have a Pauline conversion, I saw a clip where he was supporting Donald Trump !
