A damning indictment of the Net Zero political project has been made by one of the world’s leading nuclear physicists. Dr. Wallace Manheimer has said abandoning fossil fuel will spell the end of modern civilisation.
The demand for an end to the ban on on-shore wind farms is bizarre. As Matt Ridley points out in the Spectator, they’re not banned and the energy they produce is expensive and makes gas more expensive, not less.
New evidence indicates that millions of bats are being slaughtered every year by wind turbines, yet bat conservation bodies do not blink at continuing to support the development of wind power.
