Killing Energy

Willis Eschenbach

The folly of pushing to kill fossil fuel exploration, extraction, and refining BEFORE we have anything to replace it is insane.

Forget about gasoline and electric vehicles. The problem is, we have NO replacement for avgas, JetA1, diesel, or Bunker C Crude. These are the fuels that power the heavy trucks, boats, ships, planes, and jets that are the transportation lifeblood of the economy.

End the War On Fossil Fuels! It's freezing old people in their homes and driving inflation ever upwards.

Goldman Sachs’ Jeff Currie: ‘$3.8 Trillion of Investment in Renewables Moved Fossil Fuels from 82% to 81% of Overall Energy Consumption’ in 10 Years

Tim adds:

It's all about deindustrializing the West and returning to some mythical sylvan paradise that never was. The Nazis had the same idea but didn't implement it before becoming embroiled in war. And many of the more socialist minded want to punish the West for being so successful, and many others want to limit the West so the rest of the world can catch up. There are any number of bad ideas at work here.
