I really hope we get nuclear Bitcoin mining, as @balajis suggests. I wish it would happen in the US, but that would require a rapid nuclear decriminalization effort--which I hope to lead, but there are huge obstacles. Where do you think it could happen?https://twitter.com/balajis/status/1434077041733767175?s=20 …

Tell your elected officials you will never vote for them if they support the Unconstitutional and blackout-guaranteeing "Clean Electricity Payment Program."https://twitter.com/AlexEpstein/status/1435313174421463041 …

Unreliable solar/wind is failing around the world. It's failing in the UK. It's failing in California. It's failing in Germany. As the US considers mandating >50% unreliable solar/wind by 2030, ask your elected officials if they know about these failures.https://twitter.com/spikedonline/status/1435574895400955907?s=20 …

If you were part of a movement--the environmental/climate catastrophist movement--that has made false predictions of imminent doom, wouldn't you at least acknowledge your movement's terrible track record and try to explain why this time is different?https://twitter.com/Chris_C_Horner/status/1435952276192079872?s=20 …

"The energy powering our hospitals, the technology at work in water-sanitation plants, the agricultural revolution that fuelled the expansion of food production – all this and so much more means that we now live longer, healthier lives than ever before." --@spikedonline

Great from @spikedonline: "Almost all the advances in medicine...that we enjoy today rest on economic, material development....Yet it is precisely this industrial and economic development that the climate alarmists in the White House and editing health journals want to curtail."

My debate policy: I will debate anyone on energy/climate provided that one of 2 conditions are met: 1. A forum will host it with an expected 100,000 views or more. 2. A forum will pay my speaking fee. This gives anyone legit an opportunity while not letting randos waste my time.

This is not the way to respond if you’re an elite medical professional who has been caught making an incredibly crude error. Let’s see who else responds to Bjorn’s damning letter, and how.https://twitter.com/BjornLomborg/status/1435997477971316740 …

"The problems on the electric grid should be setting off alarms in Washington, D.C., and state capitols. Regulators and policy makers should be preserving nuclear plants and making sure further coal plant closures don’t damage the grid’s resilience." --@pwrhungry

"Trying to electrify everything would be a disaster, especially for low-income consumers. Poor folks tend to live in homes that aren’t as efficient or sturdy as those occupied by the wealthy. They are more likely to suffer, or even die, during blackouts or extreme weather."

"Renewable energy promoters don't want to admit that wind and solar are undermining the grid. But the North American Electric Reliability Corporation, a nonprofit trade group, said in a report last month that 'changing resource mix' is the most urgent challenge for reliability."

Crisis: "Generac says in a recent investor presentation that power outage severity is 'increasing significantly.' Between 2000 and 2020, the number of what the Energy Department calls 'major electric disturbances and unusual occurrences' jumped 13-fold." --@pwrhungry in @WSJ

I mentioned recently that it's not a good idea to attack @BjornLomborg unless you really have your facts straight. Ditto for @RogerPielkeJr.https://twitter.com/RogerPielkeJr/status/1435968009571422211 …

Even if you think half of today's climate danger is caused by rising CO2, it makes no sense to make reducing CO2 emissions your primary "solution." CO2 *levels* are going to keep rising, no matter what, for decades. The primary solution always needs to be greater climate mastery.
