Migrants killing dogs, stealing from homes prompts some Texas border town residents to arm themselves

The Inflation Reduction Act aka the $360 BILLION gift to chinese to keep **** up the earth with green energy ****.
Wind and sunshine are free, clean, green, renewable, and sustainable. But harnessing this diffuse, unreliable, weather-dependent energy to power civilization is not.
The Green Lobby and its legislator and regulator friends think they can just pass laws and earmark subsidies, demanding energy transformations by 2050 – and it will just happen. The raw materials will just be there, perhaps with a little MAGIC: Materials Acquisition for Global Industrial Change. That is, just assume the necessary raw materials will also just be there.
Not one of these luminaries has given a moment’s thought, much less attempted to calculate, what this net-zero transition would require:
How many millions of wind turbines, billions of solar panels, billions of EV and backup batteries, millions of transformers, thousands of miles of transmission lines – sprawling across how many millions of acres of wildlife habitat, scenic and agricultural lands, and people’s once-placid backyards?
How many billions of tons of copper, steel, aluminum, nickel, cobalt, lithium, concrete, rare earth, and composite plastics? How many trillions of tons of ores and overburden? How many mines, across how many more acres – with how much fossil fuel energy to operate the enormous mining equipment, and how much toxic air and water pollution emitted in the process?

To cite just one example, just those 2,500 wind turbines for New York electricity (30,000 megawatts) would require nearly 110,000 tons of copper – which would require mining, crushing, processing, and refining 25 million tons of copper ore ... after removing some 40 million tons of overlying rock to reach the ore bodies. Multiply that times 50 states – and the entire world – plus transmission lines.
How many processing plants and factories would be needed? How much fossil fuel power to run those massive operations? How many thousands of square miles of toxic waste pits all over the world are under zero to minimal environmental standards, workplace safety standards, and child and slave labor rules?
How many dead birds, bats, and endangered and other species would be killed off all across the USA and world – from mineral extraction activities, wind turbine blades, solar panels blanketing thousands of square miles of wildlife habitats, and transmission lines impacting still more land?
The hard reality is, there are not, will not be, and cannot be, enough mines, metals, and minerals on the entire planet – to reach any “net-zero” US economy by 2050, much less a global “green” economy

Here’s another issue: electric vehicles and backup lithium-ion battery modules can erupt spontaneously into chemical-fueled infernos that cannot be extinguished by conventional fire-fighting means. That raises an important analog to rules Alec Baldwin should have kept uppermost in mind last year. Treat every firearm as if it is loaded. Never point your muzzle at anything you are not prepared to destroy.
In the Biden-Newsom-Kerry energy arena: Treat every electric vehicle and backup battery system as if it is loaded and ready to ignite. Never park an EV, install a PowerWall or locate a backup power facility near anything you are not prepared to destroy.
That includes in your garage; near other vehicles; in parking garages under apartment and office buildings; in residential neighborhoods and highway tunnels; or on cargo ships like the Felicity Ace.
And yet we’re supposed to go along with Green Energy schemes – as we did with masks, school lockdowns, and vaccinations to stop Covid – because we have to destroy the planet to save it.
Because our government, media, and “public interest” groups insist that we “follow the science,” on which there can be no doubt (certainly none permitted) that we face a “manmade climate crisis” that threatens the very existence of humanity and “the only Earth we have.”
It’s time to short-circuit this electricity nightmare, by asking these questions, demanding answers, and ending the notion that governments can simply issue edicts and compel reality to change in response.

Nuclear energy and its improvement is the only feasible replacement to fossil fuels. The fact this is a non starter with many environmentalists tell me they are either ignorant about the demand for energy or ignorant about all the resources needed for an inferior "green" solution. Solar and wind and hydroelectric and geothermal have their places but will never replace fossil fuels.Buffalo » 02 Oct 2022, 2:46 pm » wrote: ↑ The Inflation Reduction Act aka the $360 BILLION gift to chinese to keep **** up the earth with green energy ****.

Is its current state? Absolutely not. It has the potential where as other suggested solutions do not. Need to find a way to make it child safe and less prone to deliberate abuse.Buffalo » 03 Oct 2022, 6:33 am » wrote: ↑ Nuclear cannot replace fossil fuels, though.

The reality of this "green agenda" **** is that it will unleash untold nightmares that the loony left refuses to acknowledge much less discuss. More stupidity of braindead biden and more wealth transfer to the climate zealots . I am all for preserving our earth but this is not the way. They won't admit it will still take coal and oil to mine and make all the unreliable **** they want to force on us. Getting rid of braindead biden, schumer, the idiot sloopy ho, lurch kerry and dimwit peelosi can't come soon enough!!!

Mother Nature CAN be violent and destructive, boi... as seen by what IAN did. There is no such thing as man-made global climate anything!!!
The "green energy" **** is a SCAM!!!

That's literally impossible. Light a match, You change the climate in a tiny way. To say that the match doesn't change the climate is to violate the 1st law of thermodynamics. So consider the millions of cars on the road, Each one making changes to the climate. Each smokestack, Each lawnmower, Each cow.Buffalo » 03 Oct 2022, 8:22 am » wrote: ↑ Mother Nature CAN be violent and destructive, boi... as seen by what IAN did.
