Ghana is another country under serious duress, to go along with south africa and many other so called third world countries. 8 hour rolling blackouts are common place now.

Even europe is under duress, france and germany have severe shortages and have started rationing, and even the netherlands has had some recent unrest about farmers unable to get fertilizer.

The leftists will all tell you it’s putin’s fault, or it’s covid’s fault, but they are lying to you.

Green energy policy is destroying millions of people’s lives. The leftist elite do not care at all, they will continue living their normal lives, while billions of others suffer and die, just so they can “save the planet”.

Can this happen in the us? Look at texas and their power grid struggles due to wind energy, and look at florida banning fertilizer. Not to mention all the idiocy going on in blue states.

If we continue down this road, life is about to get infinitely tougher, and it has nothing to do with putin and nothing to do with covid.

Trump warned us all, but idiots didn’t listen and voted for biden, who’s main goal is to kill the fossil fuel industry at any cost. If millions need to die around the world, so be it.
great post

More food shortages expected in the Netherlands as green policies cause farmers to protest:

...government’s proposed climate-change policies...aim to force farmers to use less fertilizer and decrease their livestock in an effort to reduce animal emissions of nitrogen oxides and ammonia. ...

Dutch officials say that a 30 percent reduction in livestock is needed to meet their climate goals.

The lust for fossil fuels continues to astound.

And that greed blinds some to the damage being done.

Instead of blaming the elites, the left yada yada, individuals could inform themselves of the whole picture and do what they can to remediate the situation.

Take a good look at Texas. The population was asked by ERCOT to stop using electricity. And they did it in spades. Surprised even ERCOT.

Exactly why "All of the above" is the best energy policy. Push up new tech to make it mature then let it kill old tech in the long run by having its cost come down.

Oh and nuclear needs to be built. Preferably the melt down proof low pressure kind.

Have you seen the study that shows 80% of us including kids have glyphosate in our urine. Wonder what that does to human bodies over time?

Does any know? Does anybody care? We need to rid the world of weeds.

What percentage of the air would be considered "saturated with carbon dioxide/methane" ?

Texans, especially high consumer businesses were asked to conserve between 2-8pm. So? This is no different from when I lived in NC and it was being done over a decade ago. AZ does the same.
So what’s your point.

Better contact the companies who manufactured products with harmful ingredients and told people they were safe.

The problem is that the WEF is enforcing restrictions that will cause multitudes to starve to death. Instead of changing gradually and providing safe alternatives to farmers, they are all about control. They want control of every aspect of everyone’s life including yours. Eat bugs and be glad.

I don't understand why people don't see the underlined.

Believers in the religion of climate change say it's humane to save the environment and protect the world in the future... while at the same time approving policies that cause people to freeze to death today because of a lack of reliable energy.
