Zero-Energy Poverty Will ‘Trump’ Net Zero

THE progressive pathologies of the 21st Century are collapsing around us so could the most economically damaging of the lot be next? Mass, low-skilled immigration is now acknowledged as a drain on a host nation’s economy, detrimental to social cohesion, and a fuel for criminality. Meta boss Mark Zuckerberg has binned arch-liberal Nick Clegg for a Trump supporter Joel Kaplan; prostrating at incoming President Trump’s feet, he acknowledged his culpability in censoring free speech. America’s leading banks are withdrawing from the Net Zero Banking Alliance which has curtailed investment in hydrocarbons in favour of unreliable renewables. And, now Trump’s incoming energy secretary Chris Wright, is set to axe the damaging Net Zero fallacy in favour of a global focus on Zero Energy Poverty. Wright, Founder and CEO of US gas fracking firm Liberty Energy, says Net Zero is a threat to the prosperity of mankind. Net Zero Lies Where Wright and Trump’s Net Zero scepticism is s...

The Un-economic Reality of So-Called ‘Green’ Energy

Acme inc recently appointed a new chief executive, and he got off to a flying start. With the wind in his sails he ripped it up with some a stunning opening results, but the dynamic subsequently shifted. And, now It seems that he can only work around 25% of the time (1). On joining he brought in his own team of administrators and executives at an additional onerous financial cost to the business and while they continue to beaver away they are non-productive overheads. (2) Well, surely you’ll be firing him shortly if he can only work 25% of the time. What’s his problem? Well, occasionally on the days when he doesn’t want to work we can reach him on what’s app or the phone and he’s able to deliver some stunning insights, (3) but that’s rare as we don’t know where he is most of the time. What’s the board going to do about this? Well as we have a lot of Government cash to support the business (4), and his appointment was the result of pressure from many virtue-signalling direct...

Trump’s Net Zero Pushback Will Expose UK’s Energy Lunacy

TRUMP’S new energy chief will lead America into an era of energy dominance - as the UK heads into an era of energy insecurity. Chris Wright, the founder and chief executive of Denver-based fracking firm Liberty Energy, contends hydrocarbons have boosted human flourishing and taken millions out of poverty. Once in office he’ll encounter our own Energy Minister Ed Miliband, who studied PPE at Oxford, and has a penchant for bacon sarnies and pasties. While they’re both playing on the same pitch their ethos and tactics could not be more different - akin to a Pep team taking on Graham Taylor’s Watford - abundance versus scarcity. In his first stint as Energy and Climate Change Secretary Miliband enacted one of the most-damaging pieces of UK legislation of modern times; the 2008 Climate Change Act. This made the UK the first country in the world to put climate targets into law with the aim of neutralising greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. Technically, and financially, impossible...
