They are a big company, they will have large revenue, revenue isn't profit, profit goes to share holders (that's you and me) it also helps them pay a fair wage to workers and taxes to the govt. You don't care because it ruins the story you are trying to sell. Onus is on you. The wingers constantly say that climate change is a hoax, all to profit green energy companies. The stupidity makes mw want to puke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a stream that runs all winter through our yard. In fact in a heavy rain this year it overflowed the 2 foot diameter drainage pipe and flooded my neighbors garage. Not so much water running in the summer. So that would be a bummer. I gots the big bag lifestraw. So if I can get it, I can filter it. mspart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostly to services with smaller amounts to the workers (at relatively low wages). . this is so effin stupid. the federal gov't has a whirlwind of revenue based on no product - it just syphons money of oil & gas and your response is...

scourge165 Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 On 2/19/2024 at 1:04 PM, mspart said: Your question is essentially asking, Even though the EV is more expensive, worse for the environment, less convenient, less operable in extreme cold or hot weather, is only convenient in a city driving situation, is more expensive to repair, may cause more pedestrian deaths due to low noise, why is there all the push back on them since they are trying to solve a problem? No...it wasn't "essentially asking," that even a little bit. It was essentially asking...do people honestly believe that people are not contributing to climate change.

This is actually straightforward and not even EV-related...though EV technology is still in it's infancy and batteries and infrastructure are improving, I don't care what your opinion on EVs are.

Offthemat Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 POSTED ON FEBRUARY 25, 2024 BY JOHN HINDERAKER IN ENERGY POLICY, GREAT BRITAIN BLACKOUTS, HERE WE COME People around the world are increasingly realizing that “green” energy is actually black–as in blackouts. Thus, in today’s Telegraph: “The UK is much closer to blackouts than anyone dares to admit.” We are heading for a big electricity crunch as it is. Whoever wins the general election, the next government will be committed to decarbonising the National Grid – by 2035 in the case of the Conservatives and by 2030 in the case of Labour. That means either closing all the gas power stations or fitting them with carbon capture and storage technology – which does not yet exist on scale in Britain and whose costs are likely to be massive. At the same time every single one of our existing nuclear power stations is currently due to reach the end of its life by 2035. If Hinkley C is delayed much beyond its latest estimated completion, we could end up with no nuclear at all. That could leave us trying to power the country pretty much with intermittent wind and solar energy alone – and this at a time when politicians want millions more of us to be driving electric cars and heating our homes with heat pumps, thus substantially increasing demand. How will we keep the lights on? One struggles to find satisfactory explanation from the National Grid ESO, which is trusted with this task. Britain is not alone in that regard. It is extraordinary that no one in any country has actually tried, seriously, to figure out how to power a modern economy with intermittent and absurdly expensive wind and solar power. We are simply cruising toward disaster with inept and even senile politicians at the helm. https://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2024/02/blackouts-here-we-come.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
