Climate Clown Planet

Question Period, Wednesday : The hillarious clown called house speaker Roti, “ Mr. Trudeau”, bringing a hysterious bout of laughing. He is so fixated on himself that he calls others by his name, wow, that’s becoming.

Have you ever watched the proceedings? They all behave like clowns.

That sure woke you up this morning. Getting up to come to the rescue of your hero?

Are you really going to step on this same garden rake all over again? You really have such a short memory that you don't recall how it ended last time?
Remember, when you couldn't even find any credible scientific estimate of how long the CO2 will remain in the atmosphere. Science can't answer that simple question, but you are confident that it will never decline back to the starvation levels of the pre-industrial era.
Perhaps you should leave the science to the scientists.

No CO2 wont decline to pre industrial levels untill we stop releasing massive amounts with fossil fuels.

And there are no scientists or their organizations that say that declining CO2 levels are going to be a problem at any time in next centuries. Quite the opposite. So i am not sure why you keep bring up this climate change denier fodder again and again?

You should take your own advice. "leave the science to the scientists". Instead you come up with an imaginary problem that doesn't exist.

I don't keep bringing it up. You keep bringing it up. You have stepped on this same trap over and over again.

But tell me this. How would these scientists know that declining CO2 levels won't be a problem for centuries to come, when those same scientists as you recently discovered, don't have any idea how long the residence time of CO2 is in the atmosphere? If we switch 100% to nuclear power tomorrow and stop releasing co2, will we be back to pre-industrial levels by Tuesday afternoon, or will it take tens of thousands of years as you originally guessed?

Muh tidal power....

What a joke all these climate clowns are.

GD we have some stupid people in this country.

All my climate action pittances are donated to PP. Funny, RBC doesnt notify me of a balance increase when I deposit my canola cheque.

Propaganda orders from the TURD!

So Moe wants to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and get to net zero electricity by 2044. And the feds are saying 2035? They are only 9 years apart. They should be able to figure this out.

Moe agrees that we need to get to net zero.

And in the next breath Moe wants the feds to pay for most of the transition? If you are going to beg for money you will need to find some agreement with the feds.

Meanwhile in Alberta coal will be done in 2023. And Alberta is leading the Country with wind and solar with massive amounts planned.

The AESO already knows that you can have the best of both worlds with large amounts of low cost cleaner renewables all backed up by gas when needed and grid stability with strong interconnections with other provinces. Gas can keep running for backup as long as needed.

Moe would prefer to keep Sask Power under his political control rather than like Alberta let the free market choose the best options for meeting net zero.

The massive potential of clean power in Alberta and Saskatchewan
The Editorial Board
Published May 16, 2023

"What the conservative opposition on the Prairies belies is how fast renewables are gaining ground. Alberta’s power grid capacity is about 18,000 megawatts. About one-third is renewables. Solar rose by a factor of 10 from 2020 to 2022 and wind capacity more than doubled, according to the system operator; 27,000 MW of solar, wind and energy storage are either being built, approved or announced. In Saskatchewan, capacity is about 5,200 MW. One-third is renewables and the province is planning 3,000 MW of new wind and solar by 2035. SaskPower says it will halve emissions by 2030 compared with the late 2010s. That’s impressive and suggests getting close to net zero by 2035 isn’t a radical goal."

Alberta’s Power System in Transition

Alberta’s power system is undergoing the biggest transformation in its 100-plus year history. Coal-fired electricity generation, a key source of power in the province for more than a century, is on track to be eliminated as a fuel source for electricity by the end of 2023.

Offsetting the phase-out of coal are equally large increases in natural gas as a fuel source, along with renewable energy such as wind and solar. In fact, Alberta now leads all other provinces in growth in wind and solar energy.



Blessed with ample wind and solar resources, and supported by the province’s competitive electricity market, Alberta is attracting significant private investment in renewables generation and energy storage projects, estimated at more than $4 billion since 2019.

As shown in this chart, 12,600 MW of solar capacity, 9,100 MW of wind and 5,556 MW of energy storage are either under construction, have received approval by the Alberta Utilities Commission (AUC) or been announced by project proponents.

When are you going to admit this whole climate scam is truly just about wealth redistribution amongst everyone below the very Elite ???!!!
That’s all the b/s is about , and you Chuck , like a good hard core socialist are waiting with your hand out

Wind certainly looks like a great investment. Just rocking this morning, producing at just under 15% of capacity.
