Michael Moore's documentary 'has exposed green energy as a fraud'
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 май 2020
- Michael Moore's documentary, 'Planet of the Humans' has exposed the "swindlers" who are peddling misinformation and the environmental benefits of green energy, according to Liberal backbencher Craig Kelly.
Mr Moore's documentary, which is available free of charge on the internet, casts doubt over the efficacy of renewables, in particular solar and wind energy.
The documentary filmmakers argue some green energy is hindering, rather than helping, the fight against dangerous climate change.
Many environmentalists, including Yale Climate Connections, have criticised the film, claiming it relies on outdated depictions of renewable energy.
Yale Climate Connections said while renewables do have a carbon footprint, it is smaller than non-renewable energy.
However, Mr Kelly told Sky News "Moore exposes everything about green energy."
"Moore's film, what makes it so important, is because he is a character of the left," he said.
"This is the moment where they say, the emperor has no clothes."
"He exposes everything about green energy as simply a fraud peddled by a whole lot of swindlers who are making an absolute fortune out of it, and ultimately, it's not even environmentally friendly.
All these wind turbines and solar panel, they have a life of 15 to 20 years."

Using more carbon to reduce carbon is a bit of a joke !!!
We shouldn't reduce carbon. It's what's protecting us from the sun and cold.
@@theojobse3341 lol you gotta be kidding me.
@@Davidnerfz nothing as it seems. The problem is not carbon it's a One World Government agenda.. They have a motto , 500 million tops for the earth's population. Your mate Bill is buying up the land. He's no farmer. The Chinese doing the same. They mean to run us short of food next. By reducing carbon the plants will struggle. It's known of course, but the climate scientists get paid by Soros and his mates. Already in Australia the dairy farms bought by the Chinese have failed. No good reason. Badly managed. Starved the herds. Why would you do that?
All part of the plan.
Hydroxicloraquine works it works on all viruses. That's the only reason to ban it. No money in it, but they want death..Less population.
Everything is a lie
@@theojobse3341 Thanks for taking the time to explain. I am doing my thesis on carbon emissions & RE at the moment. I don't claim to be an all out know it all but still though what you said I had been thinking about before, there is definitely some truth to it. I feel CO2 emissions are important to look into its significant IMO (could discuss that later). But getting to your point, its very true and I truthfully say probably more significant. rich control the world man. Sustainability, its controlled/manipulated a lot by politics, and there's no such thing as 100% sustainable, something is going down big time, and its big money, land grabbers, big pharma, arms dealers, financial institutions (They scared of crypto yo) all involved. I feel you man, sometimes I just wanna live on a damn island far away from everything. But the troubles of the world catch up to you everywhere. Such is life. Despite this there are many great things to life too, one way to be sane in this world is to stay positive but know whose trying to get at you, fight for ones self, ones family, or whatever you believe in. Never give up thats when they win man.
@@Davidnerfz today it comes out that NATO is the Rockefeller army, they are moving through Slovakia to Greece for training? Nothing is what it seems. The current government of China is not legitimate. It's a criminal organisation. The real government is Taiwan. England should never have surrendered Hong Kong to China, that Government is in Taiwan that signed a 99 year lease.. Psalm chapter 37 says, I have never seen the righteous forsaken or their children begging bread.
The whole chapter is comforting and in fact the Bible is the truth. In school we were taught evolution as a theory not fact. But David Attenboroug's efforts have introduced it all as facts, so much so that people gave up beliefs in God and Now take up science as their God. I say that because I noticed that the theory is not proved at all, but the very opposite, it's disproved many times over. Just one is DNA. It completely disproves evolution. And now with the knowledge acquired through real science we know that The Chinese virus is man made. It had to be man made because of what we know about DNA.
When Al Gore came on the scene advocating green energy, that was the first sign to question the agenda...
Oh yeah. The Gores, with their 20 room, 8 bathroom mansion with heated pool and whose show-only solar panels don't even cover 6% of their energy consumption. Yes, please lecture to me, Al! 😆
Name one thing Al Gore has got right, except line his bank balance at our expense.
@@randallmidgley7589 He has been able to convince some dim bulbs out there that his works of cinematic fiction are factual documentaries. A Sky-Is-Falling charlatan.

The only place you can get actual news about America is Australia
Isn't that the sad, sad truth.
Not so, have you watched Sky news?
Well, when you have a corporate collectivist body telling the six companies who own all of the news broadcasting studios what they can and can't say, of course you won't get the truth from them. You have to get it from outside sources.
Would say Fox but Disney bought it.
So yes.
Even russian tv shows more news then usa
It seems the Australian media actually do their job rather than push an agenda.
It’s not free on RUclips tho. You have to rent or buy it.
and India
I thought so too but not sure why they are airing these lies.
I’m an Australian and I’m so proud of sky news Australia there is no bullshit ... at all I love hearing people from different countries commenting in these comment sections
@@coreybrown4192 We get nothing like Sky News over here. Absolutely love it. I purposely buy Aussie wine...damn the Chinese.
Big Cheers for Michael Moore-Whistle blower of the decade. He called them out, that's the type of News Reporting we need. Thank You Michael Moore!
I’m am no Michael Moore fan, but I’ll give him credit for this film.
I second that statement.
Me too….
I've been telling you a million times on this site..
All the woke and cancel culture garbage is coming from the elite and their right wing Think Tanks.
This is about money$$$ carbon credits... control when the banks collapse.

I feel the same way. This was a rare exception.
"SAVE THE PLANET!!!" cuts down entire forest, covers mountainsides, and open plains with panels.
Your right, they should be placed in deserts.
Hypocrites!
@@interesting7215 ...where they kill off the biota and reduce biodiversity (IUCN quiet much?)
@Dee Dee You do realize that there are a lot of people who are already doing that, right? The thing is, not everyone owns a house though (or is intelligent enough to get solar panels if they do) ...
And in some regions it also is a bureaucratic hassel to get them on your roof, because "it doesn't look nice in this neighborhood" ... as if that matters ... Good that there are solutions for that as well though ...
Studies done in Saudi Arabia, investigating the environmental impact of solar farms in the desert, discovered that the dark colors of the panels would actually increase local temperatures substantially. The lighter colored sand actually reflected more heat and was cooler. The project was scrapped.
It’s the same thing for the pharmaceuticals industry. Wherever they smelled money or the opportunity of money, come the lies and the taxes! 🙄
Any literally every other massive corporation that dodges tax and and gets payoffs from the banks to set up more shops in your country at your goverments expense?
Yes. Read "Plague of Corruption" by Dr. Judy Mikovits, who also did the Plandemic video that was taken down from the internet.
@@omegala1 yea. She is has been stripped of her practicing medical liscense. Notice how its only her with these claims and no peer reviewed paper or any other sane doctor that will back her. The scientifiic community think the is a crackpot with her wild claims. Bs
@@unclepete5877 You are so wrong. She never was a medical doctor, but a top PhD scientific researcher who contributed to some amazing discoveries that saved millions of lives. Then she discovered that a vaccine had horrible side effects, and big pharma tried to destroy her. In effect she was cancelled, consistent with today's cancel culture. I guess you also believe Snowden is a traitor, and Soros is a philanthropist?
@@omegala1 why is it every every medical proffesional thinks she is a crackpot then? Descredited. Probably a reason for that.. oh! Cus shes full of shit perhaps.
The bigger problem with the Green Energy movement is that it has distracted us from dealing with real environmental concerns that don't require destroying capitalism in the process. Problems like cleaning up the ocean, remediating the drought in California, upgrading municipal sewer systems, reducing our use of non-biodegradable plastics, and getting lead of our municipal water supplies. All of these could have been fixed for a fraction of what was uselessly spent on Green Energy incentives to funnel money to political cronies.
What I see is capitalism crawled its into renewable energy
Totally agree about the evil distraction games these treasonist use Our Tax Money for while they sell America to communist countries and distroy the livelyhood of the American People
@M Mcott Elon is looking at CO2 scrubbing tech because he’s realised that solar and batteries aren’t how you forge steel and that without 4th gen nuclear, it’s coal and gas that will drive progress for humanity- which is a better outcome than blindly focusing on CO2 at the expense of humanity’s progress.
A good sounding, catchy slogan(s).
ALL, the communists ALWAYS offer is WORDS.
They could offer NOTHING else.
Everything else comes FROM Capitalism AND they KNOW it.
Largest scam in human history is communism.
Plus, droughts and habitat loss are also what're killing off koalas. 🙁
The only green in green energy is the money that's coming from people's pockets convincing them that there actually are free lunches
Thank God Exxon Mobile, Shell and Texaco are giving some of their green back. It'll be in our next stimulus bill, when the Federal Reserve and the fossil fuel companies come to a conclusion, on how much to further tax us.

Like Rosa Koire says, the green movement is a watermelon: Green on the outside, red on the inside.
CCP is behind the green energy advocates as the west embraces green energy then industry has no choice but to relocate to China to operate. Making China and maybe India the only countries able to have manufacturing industry.
And THAT is ALL.

"The only thing green about renewable energy is the money it makes!"
...but only the democrats at the top of that pyramid make money.
And the taxes they charge us!
China makes 90% of solar panels by burning a lot of coal.
More people can produce electricity by the use of renewables.
We aren't asking for it, but they are going to give it to us anyway. If they want to give it to us you know there is mobey in it somewhere.
I don't really like M Moore , but good on him for exposing this sham .
Say what you want about him, but he's generally been for the little guy and the truth for the last 40 years. While I can barely stand to listen to him ramble on the way he tends to on various talk shows, he strikes me as a genuinely patriotic person who is trying to help his neighbors.
oilandgasAK not really. His first few documentaries were about the evils of outsourcing and corporate greed. Then he bashes anyone that isn’t for open borders. So corporations can insource labor and he’s ok with corporate welfare
@@Navy35 If Americans aren't getting into the right STEM fields, then that's on us. Chinese and Indian nationals are graduating with STEM master and doctorate degrees at a rate nearly 10 times and 5 times that of the U.S. I have worked at a national laboratory, and easily half of the people in my building were from China. The necessary labor force is not being produced here, and it's part the ridiculous idea that a humanities degree is going to pay bills in the future and the equally damaging idea that advanced educations aren't necessary.
oilandgasAK those are visa programs that you are talking about. But when you have nearly 50% unemployment rate among African Americans youths and workers who are not going to college ( for various reasons) who are competing for low skilled jobs for less and less benefits and wages.
The climate crisis is real the science is undeniable
It's time that this video was widely distributed. Anyone who missed it two years ago needs to begin to inform themselves.
We're STILL pumping out the CARBON.
People need to be held accountable for their LIES!
Wonder if Michael Moore will still be alive after setting the radical left on fire and raging with these inconvenient facts.
@@dvchel Yes,unusual for 1 of their own to be so honest.
Are you talking about Greenies or Sky News?
Moore's movie was already outdated upon release. His data is mostly over a decade old, the festival in the clip is from 2008. Solar energy cost went down from 0.40 to 0.05 USD per kWh in that period.
For an indepth analysis watch "Planet of the Humans : Let's just have a think...". Sky News Austrialias experts are a joke.
The “Just have a Think” channel has an interesting episode on Planet of the Humans. It offers an interesting balance to the content of the Moore financed film. Caution, this film is of no use if you are not interested in cross checking claims - those in the episode I mentioned. Regards.
Pretty much the whole world runs on lies.
And THAT is why we aren't going to have a world in the next 100 years! -_-
Reality is that everyone is lonely and sad deep down but its too great of an obstacle to see through and understand it deeply, and that we have made society this way with our loveless relationships, so what the ignorant human beings do is play the silly games of escaping reality to illusions and very quickly it becomes nearly impossible to step out of the invisible prison one has built around oneself with conclusions opinions and theories, fortified with attached emotions and the belief for authority.
@jack the roofer @jack the roofer i can only imagine. I have just a year ago found someone i want to spend the rest of my life with, to experience and grow, to share everything. I do tend to go deep into things so i have played alot with the thought that what if i lose her too soon. The loss of someone important like that creates immense sorrow, because one is used to having someone to share everithing with, someone to care for and love, that is the best thing in the world, to care for someone, to have compassion, real love without expectations. The thing is, love has no opposites, its the immeasurable intelligence which is behind this what we call life and death, what enables things to blossom, harmony, all inner and all outer working together. We humans have limited that love too, we are saying its a feeling that you have for some and not for someone else, made it into another one of our silly games, like morals.
One either has love, or doesnt, when one has love, theres never a question of what is right or wrong, love is the right action.
The void you have inside i believe is there because you feel like you cant ever love someone like you love her, or theres never going to be anyone who loves you like she did. But love is always there.. to be found again.
Dont jump.
@jack the roofer get a dog............really......you’ll thank me later. A Lab if your a novice, a Rotti if your not, then on to a dashund or a Staffordshire Terrier. They will perk your mood up a few notches, and help keep it there. Your welcome......

Sky News Australia is the only news source that reports the facts about what is happening in the United States.
Thanks, guys and gals...We need you !
There are only three coal fired power station left in the UK; two of them will closed in September 2022, & the last one in 2024. Methinks, they must be expecting a huge depopulation since these psychopaths are unprepared to declare how many wind turbines are still operational.
@Will he heck as like In 2006, Germany had 31% of the world's entire wind capacity: 18,000 wind turbines with a rated installed capacity of 20,000MW, but delivered only 3,489 MW, comparable to one single large coal-fired PS. More importantly, a gas/coal power station was still required, running on standby, to maintain supply when the wind wasn't blowing. The only beneficiaries of this United Nations Agenda 21 inspired fraud were the heavily subsidised companies building these hopelessly inefficient, & hugely expensive windmills, and the cap & trade bandits, leaving the real workers to foot the bill.
@Will he heck as like lmao, how is it sensationalized? Half the time it's not even clickbait headlines like CNN and MSNBC and FoX. Newsmax is totally full of shit. CNN can't get their head out of Trumps ass still...😂 You do realize literally every "news" source hypes their articles and lies. Sky news Australia is by far the most accurate. I've researched stories on many outlets. Let's look at just one large example. When literally every other media outlet was reporting false news about the origin of COVID-19. They were open and thorough regarding facts. I don't know what your agenda is or if you're just trolling 🤔
I’ll go with the theory that the Upper respiratory Corona virus, came out of the Upper Respiratory Coronavirus lab in Wuhan China. Oh and they had the first outbreak of that same virus…..in that city…..where the f*cling lab is. It’s a simpler case than the OJ murders, and people still f it up somehow.
@Will he heck as like the primary narrative is this virus was natural occurring. Do you think something that naturally occurs, would have at some point in the past 🤔 so let's dismiss that theory. Gain of function research to promote cross contaminating species to make viruses more deadly was being conducted and funded in the United States and Obama stopped this in North Carolina. Then under the Trump presidency Dr. Fauci began and organized funding to the NIH coincidentally at a level 4 viral institute in Wuhan, China blocks from the wet market where we were told the infection began. When several staff were sick with COVID-19 symptoms before the world knew what it was and one staff member died. I think anyone with even mild retardation can look at those facts and make a sound judgment on the origination. But you keep thinking what you do, doesn't surprise me after conversing with you for just a few moments. Whether deliberate or accidental, it's irrelevant. China covered it up and wouldn't allow the world health organization to step in and investigate. If it's accidental though why would several prominent Liberals including Obama and Dr Fauci foreshadow this knowing they were funding it secretly. I mean you really can't be that stupid ???? 🤷
It was amusing when Electric Car activists were glowing over energy savings and then were told that to manufacture the batteries to power the cars the Chinese were using coal-fired plants and in the end the carbon footprint was LARGER for the production of EC vehicles than combustion-engine vehicles for the first 10 years of operation!
And THAT is ALL.
A good sounding, catchy slogan.

Greta Thunberg is going to be pissed at Michael Moore about this. "How dare you!"
Look for the 1982 Rio conference. Some little girl said the same shit then, that little gerttie said. Its really close to the same speech.
I am guessing Michael Moore made a profit on this movie. Like some famous person once said "There's a sucker born every minute "
Greta went to acting school early in her life
Well as Al Gore said an inconvenient truth.
For someone whose native tongue isn't even English, Greta sounded awfully stilted and high horse moralistic.
I first saw a failed wind farm in 1983 when I travelled around California. Our guide told us that it was to be removed however it was going to be very expensive and nobody was putting their hand up to do the job.
"All that did not sink or swim, was just left there to float" Ship of Fools.
Creatures like you were told by Sky news that wind farms were deadly to humans. THAT hasn't held up and when a once friend I laughed at apparently didn't liked being mocked for such a stupid notion. Told her the only way you can be killed is if you were tied to the blades. 😆
One word of truth. Every day lie after lie is being revealed.
I agree. The oceans are turning acidic, because people are throwing their Coke cans in our oceans.
LAY DOWN SALLY LET ME FILL U WITH MY HOLY WATER
I have renewed faith in humanity now because if Michael Moore can shine light on this green energy myth I can't wait to see who or what he exposes next.
Quit calling it “green energy” and call it what it is “MONEY ENERGY”
Does this mean you are in favor of ending development of all renewable energy?
Do you believe people should have to pass a reasoning test to be allowed the privilege to vote?
Sample question: What does nonrenewable mean?
@@dunexapa1016 what the hell are you talking about? Go virtue somewhere else please. Extrapolating my thought within this response is a search to argue that you are right and everyone else is wrong and that automatically makes you wrong. Call a sibling and argue, but leave everyone else alone.
@@AdventureSeeker , I believe my questions could have been understood and answered by a third grader. Sorry that you found them too challenging.
@@dunexapa1016 I wouldn't say end all renewable energy. I think balance in everything is real important.
There are certain situations where renewable/green energy would not be the ideal. Take into consideration the Texas situation. Texas has there own power grid which collapsed this past polar vortex.
These are very delicate systems, and any environmental issue can cripple the system.
Not saying that coal, nuclear, natural gas are better because they too can fail.
I just think a balanced system would do better.
The energy produced now doesnt make money?
Imagine a right wing capitalist like me agreeing with Michael Moore!
Because you set the politics aside to be reasonable adult and think for yourself based on the facts instead of mindlessly agreeing just because someone has the same political status like these eco shills do.
I thought the same thing about MM.
I found myself agreeing with him on this as well. Like they say, there has to be a first time for everything.
This is the ONLY TIME you will see me AGREE with that POS
@@AerobaticsPilot Only a "piece of shit" could agree with another "piece of shit", as you have labeled him. Your comment is an oxymoron. You should have praised Moore for exposing the truth about the false claims of the "Green New Deal." Are you saying that Michael Moore is still "A piece of Shit" even though he is exposing the TRUTH? How long will it take you, If Michael continues to expose the TRUTH, will you no longer believe and declare him as a "piece of shit."
Call it what it is…’Greed’ Energy.

Nailed it! 😄
But oil companies arent greedy…yeaaaaaa
Well I guess you can explain that? Eh?
Greed energy. That which is sold daily to unsuspecting Americans
....hummmm..is that a possible truth..is it thinking hat time?
Moore is still solidly on the left. The last word we heard was blaming Capitalism, but forcing people to subsidize an industry, at the expense of successful industries, is not capitalism, it is corporatism.
Corporatism will always be the end result of capitalism. Eventually you will always end up with corporations that are powerful enough to purchase their competitors as well as any government obstacles. It's funny how people on the right can see how toxic American media is but refuse to see that the reason for this is extremely monopolistic behavior that discourages competition.
That was three years ago. Now the summer in the Northern Hemisphere is either burning or drowning and Australia's turn next. I think the welfare we give to the fossil industry should stop and it's in the billions. Look it up if you think supporting green energy is so wrong. THEY never mention that on sky news.
as Gomer Pyle has said many times, "surprise, surprise, surprise !!!
*I'm from Texas and we learned green energy will leave us literally out in the cold during the "Arctic Blast" this winter. A week with no power and no water.*

@@MrClassiccarenthusia YES!!! (even tho this actually never happened in Germany and you either made it up or misquoted something else).
@@mrkv4k Actually it did and they wound up having to buy power from nearby countries using nuclear power. Simply put, there's still no economical, long term, bulk storage solution for when the sun don't shine.
@@nedrgr21 Actually it did not. They buy power from nearby countries all the time and on sunny and/or windy days, they send power away (even if it isn't needed). Whole european power net is interconnected. But there was never a blackout (they were close once in last few years, but that's it). I mean, where do you get that nonsense from?
simple math. Here in mich each windmill costs 1mill. it powers 67 homes. Life span 20 years. it would take hundreds of years to see a return. Feel good politics that fleeces the people and enriches the already rich.
Why do we need a ‘return’ on energy? 😄 we need energy, we should do it as a non polluting way as possible. Maybe we can improve on technology, but cost should not make us just give up. We HAVE to keep trying. We didn’t give up on the ozone layer, globally we tried and its succeeding. Because we didn’t give up.
@@viewmodeimages350 Maybe do a little research in to the USA nuclear test site that was directly below the hole in the ozone layer. When they stopped testing hundreds of atomic bombs; the hole began to close. You, my friend, are brainwashed.
@Pizzaball Jr and you, not my friend, are woefully ignorant. The worst damage to the Ozone was over New Zealand, where it got so bad that every night during the evening news, they HAD to do a Burn Time report for the following day so you knew how quickly it would take in the sun to turn in to lobster colour. Usually 15 mins on average. If you were lucky, 20 mins. Even now, one hour lunch break without protection results in burn. One hour lunch break outside on a clear sunny place on the other side of the planet of the same latitude does not result in this because they have ozone layer above them. Even Australians comment on how harsh the sun is in New Zealand far more south than Australia! Let me guess, you are American?!! Do your research before making public ignorant comments.
What about the fact that Solar and Wind plants are cheaper to build and operate than natural gas or coal?
@@xrpmaxi8839 they are cheaper to build and the output is around 1/10th of that of coal. Coal supplies all of the electric to manufacture windmills and solar panels.
Why on earth would we have to bury the components in the desert when they are made of recyclable materials?
This reminds me of the whole recycling phenomenon. It sounds great until you look at the unintended effects of doing it. We need access to quality products that last, vs throw away items from China.
Throw away items are made by the whole world, including the country you're living in... why you explicit name china? Any agenda? Pffff...
Adrian Because China is “ the worlds factory”... But on the upside for you, at least no Winnie the Pooh bears will be made there, lol! 🤣🤣
So true
Our grandparents and our society recycled much more during their time than ours. Remember milk and soda pop that came in glass bottle they rewashed those bottles and refill them.
@@juliemunoz2762 Products were relatively expensive as well, so they were built to last. I have a Wedgewood stove in my house that 75 years old and still going. "Durable" goods were exactly that durable.
Well done Michael. England has been a victim of this big con for too long..the coasts are surrounded with wind farms and fields are filling up with solar panels. Fear this is an expose too late for this groaning planet. We met in Hyde Park years ago. Could of and should have given you a hug then.
I was always taught in geology classes that we are almost out of fossil fuels and that’s why we have to switch to solar and turbines. To put solar panels on my roof was going to cost almost as much as our house. We simply can’t afford it. Thank you for honest news. Too bad we can’t find any truthful information in the USA. 😬
In California we get some pretty convincing tax credits along with federal. Without that we wouldn't have installed solar. The EV madness in California is a fringe left manifesto.

The key to understanding renewable power is to understand that when it's available ---use it. And when it's not, DO WITHOUT.
Similarly, if you can't afford it you get to do without as well.

bulldozer surrounded by WIND TURBINE BLADES. The Turbine Blades HAD to be BURIED because there was NO easy WAY to recycle them. Solar Panels lose efficiency while they are trying to produce power. At some point in time, "diminishing returns" will occur and the panels will HAVE to be replaced. What MIGHT have cost a home owner $20 K will now cost $40 K. Is THAT what a responsible person WANTS?
Something I learned in this movie, when you run on solar/wind you have to have coal or natural gas running on standby to compensate for any shortages or else you will be without power when clouds roll in or the wind dies.
The ABC are yet to show or even talk about this film.
They actually tried to censor it on RUclips. They succeeded for a short period of time. Then RUclips reinstated it. They used copyright claims to take the video down.
Because it has many errors and flawed data
@@keepitreal2902 says you -- how about some "evidence" or "proof" or "facts" other than your opinion ...
Back in the 2000's, I drove through Tehachapi Pass in California and saw hundreds of wind turbines sitting idle, a considerable number missing one or more fan blades and clearly in a derelict state. Wind energy has high startup and maintenance costs.
Yes, and what happens to those beat-up old turbines? Get shipped across the country, mostly by Rail, and get buried 30 feet in the ground in Wyoming. Now tell me that doesn't take a hell of a lot of energy!
They never tell us how long the windmills would have to run before they pay for themselves. Same with the solar panels, how much power is used to make all that glass and ship it to the site? Can you even produce glass from solar power?
And THAT is ALL.

I'm not entirely opposed to wind or solar power, but the near religious worship of them by eco-warriors is ridiculous.
I used to work for a company that did remote IT support, and one of those companies was a renewable energy supplier, I remember a conversation with one of their engineers, and when I remarked about cheaper electricity prices, he said nope the wind turbines are more expensive way to make electric and they are running at a loss as they keep breaking down and the cost of maintaining them is more than the revenue they can bring in and more expensive than traditional means of power this was about 6-7 years ago
The above comment was sponsored by the FOSSIL FUEL companies!
Renewable energy cost about 5x more than natural gas fired combined cycle generation energy. The other thing is that all generation from wind and solar must be backed up with capacity from conventional generation, so wind and solar do not negate the need for fossil fueled generation plants.

Not necessarily! Here in Washington State, we have an abundance of hydroelectric power. Not only has that provided most electric power for decades, but it's a natural to provide power when the sun doesn't shine and the wind doesn't blow, since it can be turned on rapidly and easily.
Of course environmentalists are hot to tear out those hydroelecteric dams!
I've been saying this for years, there is no such thing as "renewable" Recycling? waste of time and money. Here is the thing folks. Back in the day we didn't need plastic because we had glass. Glass for milk, soda, even peanut butter. We took our milk and soda bottles in for return and cleaning to be reused, the jars became storage for all that loose hardware or got reused when canning as well. Yes, I remember those days. It is very unfortunate that in todays world the need for quick and easy has replaced a time tested and proven system.
when plastic ends up in the ocean , everyone is eyeballing at the people , but no word about the producers of it all
richard miller I remember those days as well, Richard! As kids, we went around collecting returnable soda bottles to redeem so we could make some extra money! There were no landfill/recycling/garbage problems that exist today!👍😉
Forget this "we" stuff, nobody asked for these things, our only fault was believing they marketing that such things were the latest and greatest approach.
richard miller the worlds population has almost doubled since the milk man days. Sorry but oil and gas are the past.
Casey Caldwell LOL without oil and coal you don’t have solar panels
I'm glad to see a few media people speaking out on this! I'm particularly happy to see Mr. Moore doing this Doco on it too!! I live and work in the Canadian "Oil Patch" and everything said in this report about "Renewables" is absolutely TRUE! I've seen mostly wind turbines in my area and it isn't just about the carbon footprint they leave, it's also very damaging to migratory birds! That alone upsets the balance of nature never mind the constant bombardment of those oscillating blades!!
carbon footprint is also a lie. CO2 is plant food and in no way causes earth to heat up.
I was an electrical engineer for over forty years. I have primarily worked on the design and construction of power plants. Several nuclear, natural gas, coal, solar, and wind plants. There is no solar or wind technologies today that can replace the existing power plants. It's a lie. It's marketing BS.
A quantum leap in energy storage technology could change the situation a little, but you are spot on.
You know what? It doesn't need to replace it! Think about it,every year car companies spend billions on making new engines that are 2-3% more efficient than the older ones,if everyone start using solar panels that makes them reduce their power needs let's say by 20%, isn't this a win? What if a family can produce 50% of their needs? Or more? But nobody is talking about this because big companies don't want that!
@@andreiarama8745 If everyone put solar panels on their roof, the grid would collapse immediately.
@@ForbiddTV why? Who said anything about feeding that electricity to the grid ? Just use it for your needs and give the extra if you cannot store it. And by the way you can store it in different ways not just batteries.

Odd that the clouds were moving to the left but the wind turbine is facing the wrong way and spinning?!?
That could perhaps be caused by temperature?
I'm not an expert, but isn't possible for the wind direction to alter higher up becuase of the change in temperature? Like with ocean currents?

@Will he heck as like yes, science was never my strong suit, which is why I said to not quote me on it.
It was speculative.
The French have been way ahead for decades. They generate up to 85% of their energy by safe clean nuclear energy, no accidents.
That was the problem with nuclear: It was too easy and cheap, not enough graft available to feed the phonies.
Nuclear is clean, safe and efficient, and the one thing the Globalists hate above all: Affordable.
@@byronleemarley9610 Well the French have fixed the affordability problem. Olkiluoto 3 by Areva was supposed to be done by 2009. It's still not producing electricity and the production keeps getting delayed again and again:

2019: Production will start in 2021

When you cover your roof with solar panels, what happens when you need a new roof?
Exactly!! How can you recycle metal garbage?
With a standing seam metal roof, you just unclip the panels, install a new metal roof, then clip them back on (assuming they're still new enough tech to reinstall). Metal roofs are recyclable, fireproof and last 50 years (i've heard). If you are dumb enough to install an asphalt roof, I can't help you. California is full of charcoal stains on the landscape where houses with asphalt roofs once stood. I even have a friend in the city who nearly lost his house when his roofing installers lit a fire under his shingles during 'torch down' then left for the evening. He got a nasty surprise when the roof began smoking. Lost most of his possessions due to water damage but the firemen saved the house; just not the roof. Doh. Someone might argue that a metal roof panel 'takes more energy' to make than an asphalt shingle. Whatever. I see entire homes go up and I think; if they had a metal roof and noncombustible outer walls, what sort of energy was saved by not having to build an entirely new house?

I was approached by a solar company. They gave me a proposal for my house.
It went like: "... the following trees would cast a shadow on the panels, therefore we shall put those down..."

It's the same thing with electric cars....you have to plug them in, and it costs more to make the power to charge these cars via coal burning energy plants, and it makes more pollution to charge them and to mine the minerals to make the batteries as well as the cost to recycle or get rid of the batteries in them when they fail than it does to just produce and burn gasoline and diesel.
Wrong. Hybrid engines (LPG/bio-diesel & rechargeable electric-batteries) are the future. Germany is already winning with over 40% of its electricity from renewable energy sources. But we still need petrol for LPG gas, but fossil-fuel-only cars will be obsolete by 2035...

Right now, between the windmills and the SpaceX place, both are ruining what is left of the habitat for all the species that live there. This what we humans do over and over again.

Yank here. I watch Sky News religiously along with Newsmax.
The reality of wind energy:
More co2 is released in producing just the cement used in the foundation of a single wind turbine than that wind turbine can offset in its entire working life. That doesn’t even include mixing the cement, transporting the cement, steel and various components, the manufacture of steel and alloys used, protective coatings, lubrication and maintenance. Roads and grid infrastructure. There’s nothing green about wind farms! You can do the math yourself.
30,000 tons (60 truck loads) of cement is used in a single wind turbine.
1800 lbs of co2 is released into the atmosphere to produce 1 ton of cement. 1800 x 30,000= 54,000,000 lbs of CO2 per Wind Turbine.
How is that green? On average 3000 new wind turbines have been installed each year since 2005.
3000 x 54,000,000 lbs/co2 = 162,000,000,000 lbs/co2 increase per year.
As of January 2021, the U.S. Wind Turbine Database (USWTDB) contains more than 67,000 turbines. 67,000 x 54,000,000 lbs/co2 = 3,618,000,000,000 lbs/co2.
All Wind Turbines only produced around 338 billion kWh in 2020.
Now remember we’re told that Americans and their gas guzzling SUV’s are the number 1 source of atmospheric CO2! However, The U.S. transportation sector - which includes cars, trucks, planes, trains, and boats - now emits 1.9 billion tons of CO2 annually. But wait! to add 3000 wind turbines each year, we need a lot of cement! That cement produces 162 billion tons of CO2 each year. Isn’t 162 more than 1.9?
Remember, that’s just the cement production! That doesn’t include transportation....
Still think wind energy is green?
It’s estimated that 1.17 million birds are killed by wind turbines in the United States each year. Doesn’t that just make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside!
Don’t even get me started about how much coal is burned to produce solar panels!
It’s not nor ever has been about the environment.
Electric cars have a life span, dependent on the batteries life span.

The discussion in this video has a lot of excellent points. Many years ago, I wondered why banks and investment companies supported politicians who were leftists. It just didn't make sense to me. Another thing that did not make sense was that after some time, these "green energy" projects were just abandoned, and then people in the media would talk about how they are reclaiming the land and "recycling" the materials of whatever was there. The wind turbines are often not replaced, but just demolished when they are no longer working. It all has to do with money. The government subsidies run out, as do the tax incentives, and the project no longer is profitable. The windmills and solar panels were not put in the wrong place, the subsidies just ran out. The banks support leftists because these are the people on the green bandwagon.

That is also what happened in Iran, when the last Shah was replace by the ayatollah khomeini. When people keep on using Tyranny on you, that means they are afraid of losing their power even more. Then those who they oppressed will come after them ignoring all laws. That is how Revolutions start. :)
@@gregwall1243 The clearest example for you is China. China is what they planned for the whole world using the UN under the banner of "HUMAN RIGHTS". Authoritarian Control through technology by corporations. Do not forget that Corporations are the life blood of economies. Farms can be made into a collective Corporation and thus one can control the food supply of a country.
@@francisty139 The west is complicit in the CCP's control of China, right? I mean, the USA shipped lots of jobs there, and many billionaire families like the Waltons (owners of Walmart) make huge profits exploiting cheap Chinese labor. Do you think the Walton family cares about human rights? They force their minimum wage workers in America to go to work without adequate PPE in the middle of a pandemic. Jesus Christ.
I think the opposite is true....
Truth will get one knocked.
"A revolution always eats its children" how true is that, has anyone else noticed that there are next to no climate change posts on Twitter these days 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
MsPuddleDuckie I’ve tried to bait them lately with the cold snap down Melbourne. Dead quiet 😂
graham orr hahaha “real”😂😂
I would never grant the Great Carbon Caper status as a revolution; nevertheless I did enjoy the documentary. And reading the horrified calls to the faithful from green scammers in their well-padded towers made me smile and smile. But their comfy towers are still looking down on us and the Great Carbon Caper continues even in dire times.
Reminds me of a European energy analyst who observed, acerbically ; "Renewables eventually cannibalize their own subsidies".
Basically climate change is gradual and we have plenty of time to discuss and adapt.
They have said go green instead of the truth that the only way is a change in behavior. Buy less use less, go less. We are not a serious people.
REAL journalism.
This form of honest, objective analysis and scrutiny is what has driven civilisation and all of its benefits forward.
Thank you sky news Oz.
