What the Media Won’t Tell You About Fossil Fuels And The Green Energy Transition
by Francis Menton  15 hours ago 

From reading the left-wing media, you know (or think you know) that there is an energy “transition” going on. This is something that must happen as a matter of urgent necessity. [emphasis, links added]

Vast government subsidies are being disbursed to ensure its rapid success. Fossil fuels are rapidly on the way out, while wind and solar are quickly taking over.


For example, you may well have seen the big piece last August in the New York Times, headlined: “The Clean Energy Future Is Arriving Faster Than You Think.”

Across the country, a profound shift is taking place … The nation that burned coal, oil and gas for more than a century to become the richest economy on the planet, as well as historically the most polluting, is rapidly shifting away from fossil fuels.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
