Britain was forced to burn coal to generate electricity again this week after solar panel generation failed because it was too sunny. But the coal plant is due to be closed next year. What will we do then?
Twice as many people are dying from winter cold than summer heat, yet the Government is impoverishing pensioners with sky-high fuel bills to subsidise renewables, says Ian Price.
Gripped by a culture of climate catastrophism, society seems hell-bent on ripping up the energy system that is the foundation of our civilisation with only the vaguest idea of what might replace it, says Andrew Montford.
The deeply destructive energy policies being implemented in Germany originate in a band of groupthinking green activists who over decades have secured an iron grip on the political levers.
The collectivist Net Zero political project is starting to come apart before our very eyes. Making everyone poor, cold, hungry and confined to small living territories was always a tall political ask.
A massive offshore U.S. wind farm development has a permit to harm hundreds of North Atlantic whales and thousand of dolphins, but activists and media are united in asking the public to move along, nothing to see here.
Once the public understand the extent of the deception over climate, and the damage done to the economy and our children's future, the trickery over Covid is going to look peripheral, says Andrew Montford.
In one of those stories that requires a double-take, Greta Thunberg has been taking part in a five-day protest blocking the entrance to Norway's energy ministry to protest against wind turbines.
The latest claim from Net Zero activists is that wind and solar power is now cheaper than coal in the U.S. But that's a fiction created by the $369bn of new Government subsidies, writes David Craig.
Net Zero involves Britain embarking on a unique experiment, in which it rejects whole areas of technology which make society function, and tries to replace them with novel technologies which do not currently exist.
