DOE Plans to Spend $150 Million for Green Energy Projects

Just what America needs: More taxpayer-funded green energy projects.

The Department of Energy (DOE) and the U.S. Internal Revenue Service released plans to re-allocate more than $150 million in remaining manufacturing tax credits for “green” energy projects originally authorized by the 2009 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (the stimulus bill), according to Recovery.gov.

UK Energy Policies Worsen Impact of Cold Spell

Now, in addition to impassible roads and widespread power outages, the UK faces a cold reminder of its misguided energy policies and a reliance on failed predictions as it suffers from a chronic energy shortage. Compared to hot weather, cold weather causes greater economic damage, such as power outages, roof collapses, and contributes to a higher number of weather-related fatalities.

DRIESSEN: A real man-made climate crisis - Washington Times

Dangerous man-made climate change” also gives politicians a handy excuse for development decisions that increase storm and flood risks, failing to prepare communities for inevitable severe weather events, issuing misleading storm warnings and providing slow or incompetent responses in the wake of natural disasters.Blaming carbon-dioxide emissions and rising seas was certainly easier than manning up and shouldering the blame for Bloombergian failures before and after Superstorm Sandy.By far the worst climate crisis, however, is eco-imperialism perpetrated against African and other poor nations, where billions still do not enjoy lighting, heating, refrigeration and other blessings of abundant, reliable, affordable electricity. Instead, they must continue burning wood and dung in open fires, hauling water from polluted rivers, eating spoiled food — and suffering millions of deaths from lung infections and virulent intestinal diseases.When the conversation next turns to climate change, discussing these real climate crises could open some eyes and generate a constructive dialogue.

The NO CARBON TAX Climate Sceptics Blog: THE GREENHOUSE REVISITED

...A similar mechanism happens with the real climate, It is also cooled by convection and evaporation of water by day and circulation of the air and oceans also delays cooling at night. but the energy involved in the real climate in convection, evaporation, formation of clouds and precipitation involves (at least 97W/sqm} is so much greater than the claimed 1.6W/msq effects of carbon dioxide since 1750, or the projected 6-9W/sqm by 2100, the claimed effects of greenhouse gases. The “Greenhouse Effect” would be swamped by the unpredictable chaotic fluctuations of air and ocean circulation. On top of this are the unpredictable chaotic fluctuations of the sun and of volcanic events..
