U.S. Energy Secretary Lashes Out At UK's Sinister And Unrealistic Net Zero Targets

 

U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright,  speaking at a London conference on Monday, condemned the United Nations backed 2050 net-zero emissions target as a "sinister goal" and criticized the U.K.'s clean energy policies which aim to have our country 'lead the world to economic and social breakdown Net Zero, according to Reuters.

With President Trump having already taken steps to abandon the target, which was embraced enthusiastically by the far left apparatchiks who created and implemented policies for the previous administration of mentally incapacitated Joe Biden, Wright said,: "Net Zero 2050 is a sinister goal. It's a terrible goal. The aggressive pursuit of it - and you're sitting in a country that has aggressively pursued this goal - has not delivered any benefits, but it's delivered tremendous costs."

Addressing the Alliance for Responsible Citizenship event, Wright emphasized his top priority: for the government to "get out of the way" of oil, gas, and coal production.

 

The Reuters report states that Wright highlighted the Trump administration’s approval of the Commonwealth LNG export terminal in Louisiana Wright underscored the importance of  hydrocarbons', adding, "The world simply runs on hydrocarbons, and for most of their uses, we don't have replacements."

Criticizing Britain's net-zero push led by Prime Minister Kweir Smarmer and swivel eyed Net Zero fanatic Energy Secretary Mad Ed Miliband, he argued the policy and the ill considered efforts to be first in the world to reach the impossible target had already harmed living standards, destroyed jobs and by taxing CO2 emitting industries into insolvency had merely shifted emissions abroad. "No one's going to make an energy-intensive product in the United Kingdom any more. It's just been displaced somewhere else," he said, calling the policy "lunacy" that is impoverishing your own citizens in a delusion that this is somehow going to make the world a better place."

Prime Minister Starmer, however, has made clean energy central to his economic strategy, focusing on offshore wind for job creation and growth even though this source is so economically unviable that the world's biggest offshore and farm operator, Orsted, has cancelled planned developments in UK waters . Former President Donald Trump also weighed in on UK Net Zeto lunacy, urging the U.K. to "open up" North Sea oil and gas and scrap wind farms, but it seems the government are not getting the message.

“Energy bills are set to rise again due to a spike in global gas markets,”  Miliband claimed this week. This latest rise means that the price cap administered by energy retail market regulator Ofgem will also rise this April. This will be the third price cap increase since the General Election lsast July, when Miliband campaigned on a promise of ‘lower bills’after the transition to green energy. “This will put up energy bills because of our reliance on global fossil fuel markets controlled by petrostates and dictators,” the Secretary of State for Rising Energy Prices and Outright Falsehoods idiotically added. There is trouble, and likely blackout and electricity rationing ahead, but rather than admit this is simply because wind and solar genertion simply does not work when the wind does not work and the sun doesn't shine, (the latter being guaranteed for an everage of twelve hours a day over the full year,)  and face up to these problems, Miliband merely gaslights the public. It is never mentioned by politicians or mainstream media of course tat the previous wannabe leader of the race to net zero, Germany, has to abandon its rush to clean green electricity and restart coal fired power stations late in 2023 when the failure of wind and solar and the loss of cheap gas supplies from Russia left the country facing blacouts ad rationing of electricity use.

There are so many problems with Miliband’s claims it is clear he was desperately lying to deflect attention from the stupidity of his policies. 

The first is that there is no “global” gas market – a fact that one might expect the most senior Minister with an energy brief to understand. This fact is easily demonstrated by a comparison or natural gas prices on different markets. At the time of writing, according to the Trading Economics platform, gas was selling for £0.117 per therm in Britain and $4 per MMMbtu in the USA – translated, this means gas is 4p per kWh in the UK and 1p per kWh in the USA. If there was a “global market” for the energy commodity, these prices would be much closer – within the order of a few per cent, as with oil, not one many times larger than the other. There is no more a “global market” for gas than there is a global market for blowjobs.

If the CEO or Finance Director of any listed company misled the markets and investors in the way the Labour Party has, they would be in a world of trouble. How can politicians not be accountable in the same way?

How Many Billions of People Would Die Under Net Zero?

 authored by Chris Morrison, Daily Sceptic

Chris Packham - taking alarmism to the next level
(Picture: BBC)

 

Environmentalist and BBC wildlife documentary presenter Chris Packham has hit back at claims reported on Neil Oliver‘s GB News show that half the world’s population could die if Net Zero was implemented in full. “So Ofcom can you please explain how you allow this utter BS to be broadcast,” he wails. Running to Ofcom would appear to be a trade protection measure – millions will die has been the tried and trusted modus operandi of climate catastrophist Chris for decades.

This would appear to be the same Chris Packham who told the Telegraph in October 2010 that there were too many humans on the planet, and “we need to do something about it”. In 2020, he informed the Daily Mail  that “quite frankly” smallpox, measles, mumps and malaria were there “to regulate our population”. Over his broadcast career, untroubled by Ofcom interest, Packham has claimed mass extinctions of all life on Earth unless humans stop burning hydrocarbons. Of course there are those who point out that these popular mass extinctions only seem to exist in computer models. Hydrocarbons, meanwhile, have led to unprecedented prosperity and health, unimaginable to previous generations, across many parts of a planet that now supports a sustainable population of humans numbering eight billion.

Of course Net Zero is not going to kill four billion people because Net Zero is never going to happen. Day-by-day, support is crumbling around the world as the political collectivisation project, supported by increasingly discredited computer-modelled opinions, is starting to fall apart as it bumps into the hard rock of reality. History teaches us that tribes that grow weak and decadent are easy prey for their stronger neighbours. But the suggestion that four billion will die if Net Zero should ever be inflicted on global populations is worth examining. After all, it is likely to be true.

The four billion dead noted on GB News came from a remark made by Dr. Patrick Moore, one of the original founders of Greenpeace. Interviewed on Fox News, he said: “If we ban fossil fuels, agricultural production would collapse. People will begin to starve, and half the population will die in a very short period of time”. ...

UK to end 'strategic dependence on authoritarian regimes' for energy and vital resources

 from GB News, 9 March 2022

Foreign Secretary Liz Truss has said the UK must accelerate NATO's modernisation and deepen cooperation on tech and cyber, with a view to ending the "strategic dependence on authoritarian regimes for our energy and for other vital resources."

She added that Russian President Vladimir Putin had been “surprised” by the “toughness” of sanctions levelled against his regime.

Speaking at a press conference with US Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, in Washington, she said: “Putin’s illegal invasion of Ukraine is causing immense pain and suffering. Yet he is not making the progress he planned.

“Since the build-up on the border, the United Kingdom and the United States have led work in the G7 and through Nato to challenge Putin’s aggression.

“Before the invasion, the United States and the UK called out his playbook of false flags, attempts to install a puppet regime in Kyiv, of fake provocations. We worked with our G7 allies to warn that he would face severe costs and a determined Ukrainian people.

“We have surprised Putin with our unity and the toughness of our sanctions, hitting the banks, the ships, the planes, the oligarchs, and the oil and gas revenues. And the brave Ukrainian people have surprised him with their determination and their leadership.

“Now is not the time to let up. Putin must fail.”

Editor's note: Fine rhetoric from Ms Truss but it would have been more credible if she had mentioned where the thinks to oil needed to fuel the UK economy might be sources if not from tyrannical regimes like Russia, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Venezuela, Syria and other oil producing nations with regimes that fall a long way short of being squeaky clean.
