It is worse — It’s worse than you think or maybe worse than we can think. It seems to be a fundamental flaw in the human race, this ability to selectively heed warnings dependent on the expediency of the moment, how we are willfully blind to the approaching calamity that is about to engulf…

I propose new avatars for Politicians and their CEO owners. — The already inadequate infrastructure+reconciliation bill is being met with a treatment of predatory delay, instigated by that murder of Crows, fossil fuel CEOs, aided and abetted by that mischief of Rats, opportunistic politicians, the prominent specimens of which are Senators Sinema and Manchin. This would be disgraceful even under the…

Neither will COP 27, 28, or 50. — Despite proclamations to the contrary by the U.S. climate envoy John Kerry, to those of us who have been paying increasing attention to the state and the politics of climate change, COP-26 is already set to be an abject failure. There have been 25 COP (Conference Of the Parties) meetings…

The good is oft interred with the bones — Climate leadership in the real world means direct collisions not only with your entrenched beliefs and denials, but also with entrenched financial interests and greed of unimaginable scope and cruelty. Senator Manchin has 10 Grandkids. Mr. and Mrs. Manchin are, apparently, proud to be grandparents of Joseph V, Sophie, Kelsey…

Thank you for a great article. I was fooled into thinking we were on the right track with Paris 2015 but the IPCC report of 2018 and then Dr. Bendell's paper and Rupert Reed's presentations opened my eyes circa 2019. Since then I've researched and read many papers, books and…

The one thing I agree with in your response is the conflation of Capitalism (controlling the means of production and the distribution of profits) with greed. To be sure there are greedy people all over. The thing you are missing is that not all people are greedy and communities of…

What to do if neither works? — No matter what the lunatic cultists and sycophantic believers of The Perpetual Growth Religion tell you, it is becoming evident each day that the planet will run out of critical materials in just the next few decades in their frantic effort to build as many renewable energy devices and EVs…

That which is unsustainable can not be sustained — None of us are ready for the chaos of the we are stoking, caused by the rapacious growth of what Kurt Vonnegut Jr. referred to as “thermodynamic whoopee”. You might know it as Global Industrial Civilization-GIC. This is the beginning of how the world will sort itself out for the…

I provided some links, I suggest you connect the dots. Solar-wind-battery material needs have been assessed by Simon Michaux, one of the links that I have provided. Its pretty damning. However to wit: solar and battery costs have come down against a background of INCREASED fossil fuel use, since their…
