Blog Credo

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.

SMDH

 I don't expect Exxon or Massey energy to easily embrace a carbon-neutral future. It's the "environmentalists" who seem to refuse to embrace actual measures to reduce carbon emissions who leave me speechless.

Yes, there is no such thing as a perfect form of energy, and there is a subset of these "green" groups that want us to return to some sort of eco-farming communes. Freaking hippies.

The reality is that we could likely get to our carbon goals with a massive but safe expansion of nuclear power. We won't do it because too many people are locked in the environmental battles of the 1970s.
