#green #energy #activists in #europe have #doomed #european #energy #security https://www.zerohedge.com/energy/europea.. Where's the #lie ? We desperately need #nuclear #power .
The #british #government cannot stop #energy #price #inflation #increases https://www.zerohedge.com/personal-finan.. As the #article says, people will soon be forced to choose to #heat or #eat . The only saving grace is that they are slowly coming towards #summer .
#srilanka now turning off #streetlights to #save on #energy - expect this to get even #worse https://www.zerohedge.com/energy/sri-lan..
Seems like a bunch of #governments will be handing out #payments to #offset against #energy #costs https://www.zerohedge.com/energy/german-.. Surely it would make sense just to temporarily #reduce #tax ? Anyway, I assume #companies will do all they can to #absorb these #additional #taxpayer #funds ...
#us #president #trump #warning the #eu , specifically #germany about becoming too #energy #dependant on #russia back in 2018: https://youtu.be/KfVdIKaQzW8?t=1296 They #responded by #laughing at him. They're not laughing any more. Perhaps they should have paid more attention.
#eu about to #issue shit tonnes of more #magical #bonds to #fund #energy and #security https://www.zerohedge.com/energy/europea.. Essentially this is the EU's way of #printing #money . #euro is going to #crash hard.
Apparently #russia #threaten to #cutoff #gas to #europe and the #eu by stopping #nordstream 1: https://www.zerohedge.com/energy/first-r.. A lack of #energy #security could still be Europe's undoing.
Oh would you look at that, #germany are bent over a barrel on #energy #dependency from #russia https://www.zerohedge.com/energy/energy-.. The #un , #nato , #us , everybody, were #warning them about this far in advance and they #ignored it. As if the #energy #crisis wasn't a clear warning sign...
And now the #payment is due in the #uk https://www.zerohedge.com/economics/uk-h.. After years of people screaming tom #enforce more #lockdowns , we have now have to #pay the #bill - and it's going to hurt. #energy #bills are up by 50% , #inflation at 7% , #tax hikes and much more. #boris 's #response ? Push for *more* #taxation and try to #fund more #greenenergy #projects , at a time we can least afford it.
Looks as if after a #successful #brexit #campaign , #nigelfarage will be taking on the #green #agenda https://www.lotuseaters.com/farage-to-sp.. I would be very interested to see exactly what his points are, there are several #compelling cases for #energy #security , #nuclearpower , etc. We should also be bringing #manufacturing back into the #uk - we need to stop #outsourcing #emissions to #china ...
#uk #inflation now at a 10 year high - no #economic #crash happening soon... https://www.lotuseaters.com/uk-inflation.. According to #ons it comes from higher #transport and #energy costs, nothing to do with #covid #lockdown #borrowing and #money #printing !
The #energy #crisis is not getting any better, especially not in the #eu https://www.zerohedge.com/weather/eu-off.. It should not be this difficult to keep the #lights on in such a well #developed area, this is a massive #failure in #leadership . Believe it or not, #germany is *still* planning to #shutdown their #nuclear #plants - removing their own #energysecurity . Damn.
#random #thought - We should keep a large #asteroid #orbiting the #earth and fling it at anything that comes to close. It makes much more sense to make use of something with a lot of #mass and #energy than to try and put something from the #surface up into #orbit ... The only thing is ensuring that it is #maintainable and #future #safe .
Surprise, C is one of the most #energy #efficient #languages out there: https://hackaday.com/2021/11/18/c-is-the.. C generally scores well on #time , #memory and #energy ...
Well, this is both #useless and super cool - but I love it nevertheless https://windswept-and-interesting.co.uk/ A #kite based #wind #turbine for #energy is simply cool.

Good for #australia though as they'll be able to #export #uranium ! Anyway, people are pointing out that their #energy #shortage won't even be displaced by this, let alone displace #coal ...
