Covid is a mere sideshow, a blip in the bigger picture. Fossil based fuel is on a downward trajectory, and if you read the subtle indicators there's trouble ahead. <br /><br />I'd stand the comment about the unvaccinated on its head, it's obvious that despite all evidence to the contrary that the population in general are in total denial about our energy future. Their proposed future is happy motoring in electric cars. Fully vaccinated believing that will prevent them catching or spreading Covid as they motor about. Evidence, if it doesn't fit our worldview, just ignore. <br /><br />Nick Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12609312325425361413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3753486518085091399.post-78549466854670764752021-10-14T22:36:02.115+13:002021-10-14T22:36:02.115+13:00Amen.Amen.John Hurleynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3753486518085091399.post-47340602223574545432021-10-14T20:17:39.876+13:002021-10-14T20:17:39.876+13:00Yes...we will condemn our descendents to the same ...Yes...we will condemn our descendents to the same fate as the Easter Islanders....hopeless.pathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08727942156598555852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3753486518085091399.post-82033797650615325632021-10-14T15:45:21.320+13:002021-10-14T15:45:21.320+13:00Chris, you unconsciously identify the commonality ...Chris, you unconsciously identify the commonality between eternal, unstoppable “Climate Change” and the political response to SARS-CoV-2. The human sacrifice to Climate gods is difficult to overestimate. Despite decades of state education and social support, the real victims of both responses are those whose circumstances make adaptation painful. We can observe the world towards carbon-Zero through current SARS-CoV-2 restrictions. The virus is potentially of concern to certain demographics, but the whole team bend and take it. The scapegoated carbon dioxide is the supposed tail that implausibly wags the dog. The animal kingdom, and latterly humankind, have demonstrated the ability to adjust to a few degrees here and there. Many prefer holiday homes in warmer climes. Cold is more deadly than heat, lockdown more deadly than the disease. Education once meant encouraging critical thinking. Ideas were allowed to compete without censure. Groupthink mass psychosis is shared by SARS-CoV-2 zealots and warmongers. Both will prove to be fatal.gregsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04786701115887458801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3753486518085091399.post-63742754214858661062021-10-14T13:53:53.412+13:002021-10-14T13:53:53.412+13:00But Xi has an answer for the power shortage - buil...But Xi has an answer for the power shortage - build more coal power plants. So that is how the authoritarian systems work it. Tell everyone you are taking climate seriously, the build the worst power in the world.<br /><br />Then you can keep building cheap stuff because of cheap power and undercut every other country. The democracies that are doing things that will make no real difference, apart from making them more and more dependent on the authoritarian country.<br /><br />Nice plan.
