"Many remembered the “polar vortex” cold snap of Feb2021, when extreme arctic cold penetrated as far south as Mexico, and several hundred people, mostly children, froze to death in their beds. Unfortunately, all politicians and most of the public ignored the significance of that extreme cold event."
This actually happened - yes, people HAVE died due to grid failures.
This is exactly what I am trying to prevent.
The above is an excerpt from my new fact-based fiction book:
It is 'incroyable' to witness this, notably in Alberta.
One can conclude that the populace deserve the politicians they elect. Of course the poorer members of society are suffering this assault and misery the worst, but there is some slither of contrapuntal comfort in knowing that the virtue signalling Green chancre must suffer inconvenience too. And in thinking about counterpoint, I idly wonder what Canadian Angela Hewitt, Bach specialist thinks about this and "Trudeau's" 'Canada?
All politicians like the ones you describe...are complicit in crimes against humanity. They have sold their souls, muted their own critical thinking and deliberately chosen ignorance. They now need arresting and charged and made accountable for their complicity in years of bullshit and stupidity and crimes against life itself.
How did these idiots get voted into office? Politically connected, but their brains don't comprehend the degree of their dangerous ideas, or they simply do not care. We are mostly on our own. Here's a recent example of "safe and effective" from China:
Albertans would be much better-off if our idiot governments did nothing about energy, except to expand existing fossil-fuel generation from coal for base load and natural gas for peaking.
Electrical energy prices would be 1/5 to 1/10 of what they are today.
Our existing fossil fuel plants were not an air pollution or climate problem. That was a lie.
True, any decent thermal plant has modest emissions of other than CO2. Horrible Chinese style high sulphur burning coal plants I think never existed in Canada. Canadian coal fired were burning I think only “gellified” coal stripped of most sulphur. Gas fired are clean by nature. Oil fired I actually don’t know the process but assume it’s either crude fired or bunker fired. Nuclear offers no CO2 at plant. The new designs burn the fuel down very deeply (breeders) so very little waste. The liquid fueled, when ready, burn 100%. But we all know policy ignores science, it’s all dogma and virtue posturing.
I visited the Genessee Power Generation plan (output approximately 1,680 MW at the time) circa 2007, on a hot summer’s day, back when it was a coal-fired plant.
Ignorant of energy and the environment at that time, believing only the media narratives, I expected to find a Terminator movie post-apocalyptic environment surrounding the plant: Loud, monotonous droning from the plant itself, endless streams of pitch-black smokes from the stacks, and a soot blackened, withering environment full of dead and dying plants and animals surrounding the plant.
What I actually saw, cycling to the plant from my Lake Wabamun campsite, blew me away: It was a veritable Garden of Eden! Sensitive wetlands located directly next to the plant, lush with vegetation and life, all around the area, abundant plant, insect, and birds; the plant itself operated quietly, with barely perceptible pale whisps of smoke coming from the stacks. As someone with reduced lung capacity, and who is sensitive to air pollution, I expected to have my breath taken away, but not like this!
Well put Allan. In spite of my recent readings on energy during the past 5 years, I tend towards a more global and U.S. based focus, so I was actually shocked when my home province, otherwise known as Texas North, issued the rolling brownouts warning yesterday. Thanks for doing your part to keep us grounded in reality.
CO2 is not too high - it is too low for the continued existence of terrestrial life on Earth.

It’s as if we should have built nuclear reactors 25 years ago.

Massive idiots in charge of government at all levels. People will die if this happens.
