NYTimes Falsely Claims Climate Change Threatening Power Grids
 
The New York Times published a February 16 article claiming climate change is making America’s power grid more vulnerable due to an increase in extreme weather events.

However, objective data from the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) show the Times’ claim that extreme weather is becoming more common is false.

The evidence indicates it is policies promoting wind and solar power to fight climate change, rather than climate change itself, that is putting the most pressure on power grids.

If "climate change" b.s. could be converted into electricity, the Times and its contemporaries could power the world better than John Galt's motor...

Why yes, yes it is.

Well, not so much the climate itself as what the idiots are doing to "fix it".

Without artificial constraints, we would have all the power we need, when we need it, where we need it.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
