How oil-rich Texas became a leader in renewable energy, while Alberta hit the brakes

[Hamloc]

The flat earthers want to ignore free market Texas, where wind and solar are being chosen over other more expensive options because of economics!

And Crop is looking forward to the neo nazi and far right parties in Germany coming to power.

Just another day on Agrisilly!

Let me get this straight, I pointed out on an earlier post that Germany’s economy hadn’t experienced any growth for 2 years. Now Germany’s government is in disarray because the Chancellor fired the finance minister and you quite wrongly suggest, while calling me Crop at the same time that I am looking forward to neo nazi and far right parties in Germany coming to power?! I believe it is fairly obvious who has a tenuous grip on reality and is being silly and it isn’t me!!!

My mistake it was your post not Crop's

Germany's economy is collateral damage because of Russia's illegal invasion of the Ukraine and the impact on energy supplies.

And many farmers in Germany are leaning towards the far right fringe anti immigrant parties. Just like in Canada and the US.

So you can deny it all you want but it is a political reality.

I am not denying that Farmers in Germany and other European countries are objecting to the overbearing policies being imposed on them by the present governments. Mark Rutte in the Netherlands resigned for this reason(nothing to do with Ukraine), now Olaf Scholz is in a similar pickle in Germany. But you are accusing me of being a supporter of far right fringe parties, certainly not true. Am I a supporter of getting rid of Justin Trudeau as Prime Minister?! Absolutely!! Americans tossed the Democrats because they didn’t feel better off today than they did 4 years ago, that simple. I am sure the same will happen in Canada. Incumbent governments are being voted out because policies they have imposed have not made lives better.

IT IS The Economy Stupid.
Doesn't matter politics.
The uneconomical energy transition Strategy is failing. As is universal global trade. The other stuff is collateral. The current wars inevitable.
Not the last time this will be forgotten.

Less so in Canada and the US.

But far right hate groups are going to have a field day with Trump enabling them.

So you can deny it all you want but it is a political reality.

On the political reality theme what do you expect to happen at the upcoming climate conference?
They need a lot more money to support the poor countries in order to achieve the goals.
Trillions per year?
Many of the leaders from the largest economies are going to be no shows.
What do you think Chuck.
Lots of proclamations but no action?

The climate crisis seems to be low on the list of priorities for everywhere except Canada?

Elon Musk Trump supporter and EV maker has revolutionized the car market.

He has the support of Trump and Elon wants to sell more EVs to reduce carbon emissions and consequently demand for oil.

"Drill baby Drill" means lower prices for Canadian oil going forward to reduce inflation and the cost of living.

Elon will be the winner as the richest man in the world.

Where are the trillions for the poor countries to install renewable energy going to come from?

How much do you expect to see our lame duck PMJT pledge?

The climate crisis seems to be LAST on the list of priorities for everywhere except Canada's LIBERAL GOVERNMENT?

Every time a poll comes out on this issue, climate scores last on peoples list of priorities.

To explain why our scientifically illiterate government wants to force this election losing issue requires following the money.

[WiltonRanch]

Like I was saying before about foreign bad actors trying to cause trouble and destabilize western economies and governments, money is injected into environmental lobbies as well as far right and far left groups wherever it can potentially do the most damage. Even a prolific poster here could wittingly or unwittingly be the benefactor of such funds.

Like the failure of MSM to vilify Trump, this has to be another example of the people not buy what they are being sold.

I look forward to seeing if Mr Trudeau and his party continue to base their campaign on same strategy as the Democrat's used that lost then 15 million votes from the last election?

Will the PM just double down like it never happened?

Seems he has already decided as he loaned Zelensky 5 Billion on the never never payment plan.

[blackpowder]

I predict the Lib/NDPs and especially that Trudeau, will not change course.
How can they? It's their nature.
What percentage of population still believes their nonsense as well.
The messages have become rote for a long time.
There are regions of the country that have had enough, but our system requires we follow a few regions only.

I'm trying to figure out what the business model might be here.
The most corrupt government in Canadian history is "loaning" money to the illegitimate government of the most corrupt country in Europe, when both are on the verge of being removed from power and both are on the verge of bankruptcy.

I'm sure none of this supposed loan is making its way back to the pockets of the decision makers in canada..

The west sold Ukraine down the river ages ago. They showed they were afraid of Russia dragging their feet on military aid and putting range restrictions on long range missiles. Now they’re closing the barn door after the horse got out in an attempt to quell their guilt. The age of tyrants is here and even if the USA is on an isolationist bent they will eventually have no choice but to deal with Russia china and Iran eventually. That said, forking over money no one has into a fire is like I said guilt spending.

How is Zelenskyy any more illegitimate than Putin, Lukashenko, Orban or Trudeau? Ukraine falls our kids will be dealing with this war.
