"Yes — the same network of population control advocates (Paul Ehrlich, John Holdren, and their circle, amplified by the Club of Rome and figures like Margaret Mead) effectively launched the organized alarmist phase of modern climate change advocacy in the mid-1970s." Really?
No voter ID, especially when combined with mail-in ballots, means the system is engineered to make fraud impossible to prove. Everyone knows that you can barely get through your week without showing ID for the most banal activities, like shopping at Costco. The only reason to ban ID is to hide massive voter fraud.
Unlike nuclear which produces a small, highly contained waste stream that is tracked and stored safely for the long term, wind turbines create massive composite blades that currently have no widely adopted recycling solution. Most end up in landfills, taking up space for decades and while other parts like steel and copper can be recycled, the sheer volume of materials needed for turbines (especially for large wind farms) creates a significant environmental burden. Wind turbines can also pose a threat to wildlife like birds and bats that sometimes will collide with the spinning blades, leading to injury or death. Nuclear waste is challenging but concentrated and engineered to be isolated, whereas wind turbine disposal is diffuse, growing and largely unsolved. Also, smoke does NOT come from a cooling tower like that. Good morning, you’re already the radiophobe of the day, congrats.☢️
Waste to energy also can provide some baseload and load following energy, displacing some coal and gas use. The proper way to deal with plastic pollution and reduce our environmental footprint is to burn it for energy. When done properly, wind and solar can reduce our fossil fuel use and extend our reserves some without too much cost to grid security. Unfortunately, we aren’t doing it right at all. And nuclear should provide most of our baseload. If we were properly focused on energy security, greenhouse gas emissions would be a moot point. #AntiFragileEnergy #GreenNUCLEARDeal #HighlyFlexibleNaturalGas #IncineratePlasticPollution #WasteToEnergy #FissionFuture 🧵
Plan Trusters 🙇 need to wake up for this. Autistic idiosyncratic schematic but this -> is cumulative annual heat extremes. That's all the hoopla about. 1980-2018
