Three Big Energy Wins In 2019 weather.com Did you know â…“ of global energy comes from

[chuckChuck]

Canada has vast hydroelectric resources and is one of the world’s top producers of hydro power. In 2013, the most recent year for which global production data is available, the International Energy Agency ranked Canada second in the world in hydroelectric generation, behind only China. For net installed capacity, Canada ranked fourth behind China, the United States, and Brazil.Footnote 1 Hydro accounts for about 60 per cent of Canada’s total generation, and only Norway, Brazil, and Venezuela have a higher share of hydro in their electricity mix.

He doesn't have to Sask Power is busy installing cleaner capacity and reducing emissions on its own.

Then why is the carbon tax going up? Why do we have to do more faster? Seems like skippy could have put up a lot more windmills faster than Moe could and yet he didn't.

That's nice but there will never be another hydro dam built in this country. Whats next?

Mass wind and solar? Nuclear? Only the praires are suited to that and there are no transmission lines to Toronto or Vancouver to take the power. Cue the protesters.

Sorry for allowing Chuck to get me distracted off topic as well, Except that this claim of reduced emissions is fake news too, which seems to be the common theme of this thread:

“(The) Prairie Resilience Plan will not impact SaskPower’s plans to grow its generation capacity,” said a statement from spokesman Jordan Jackle.

"SaskPower’s projections show emissions dropping to below 10 million tonnes of carbon dioxide by 2030, due to an increased reliance on renewable energy sources, a reduction in electrical generation emissions and federally imposed methane regulations. "

Projections, future tense. You indicated present tense in your previous post. All of your arguments seem to involve future projections, and usually also require technologies or taxes or regulations that do not yet exist.

[chuckChuck]

You posted the Leader post article to make your point. Now you don't like Sask Powers projections for lower emissions based on more renewables? hahaha. You will never be satisfied!

[AlbertaFarmer5]

Yes, you are right again, I will never be satisfied when you use future projections to attempt to disprove a present day trend or event.

Sask plan has 90% real measures, hydro, nukes, natural gas, carbon sequestration....and 10% virtue signalling (wind and solar)

Most of that graph of future emissions is the maritime GDP and economy going to zero, future depression in Ontario and Quebec hiding economic development while sucking in equalization. NB relying on subsidized hydro. BC reliant on Chinese money.

In fact the entire east is planning to be dependent on carbon tax and equalization from the west while they let their economies slide.

Actually now I agree its a climate emergency. Its a race for the west to defend its economy before virtue signalling Marxists can suck it dry.

Perhaps you should consider fact checking your sources. And not spread misinformation before checking its validity. If you had read anything posted on this site in recent years, you would have been aware that the headline couldn't possibly be correct.

This clickbait type headline is so common in the climate alarmist media, that is has become mandatory to read the actual article, since they rarely say the same thing as the headlines.

Have you and climatechuck switched causes from the CWB to Climate Alarmism?
We are witnessing this group cheering for more government control, taxes and intrusion into our lives.

"Are you the censor on this site and the arbitrator of all truth?"

That would be "your people's" CBC...for all of Canada.

I was wrong, I apologize for falsely accusing you. When I opened it the first time it went right to the video with no text, I tried it on my phone, and I saw the accompanying headline text after you pointed that out. And, to your credit, you actually came back and responded after I suggested you wouldn't.

Have you notified weather.com about their false and misleading headline yet, to save other people the embarrassment of sharing something obviously wrong?

Never quite certain if these type of journalistic gaffes are intentional clickbait, knowing that most people won't know any better, and likely won't read past the headline anyways, or just gross incompetence by supposed journalists who are so far out of their technical league that they really have no idea that they are wrong.

Merry Christmas.

Look like the other two "wins" are equally dubious.

Regarding Norway, just out yesterday, this has the greens all up in arms:

And is this the lawsuit in Ecuador they are referring to?:

I suppose unconditionally dropping a frivolous lawsuit and being forced to pay court costs counts as a win, then who am I to argue.
