What Does It Cost? The Consequences of the Net Zero Energy Agenda

Lawmakers in Oregon and Washington State have passed ambitious legislation to combat climate change, aiming to eliminate fossil fuels and rely solely on zero-emission electricity sources, such as solar and wind, by 2040 and 2045, respectively.

In this documentary, Ken Peterson explores the devastating economic consequences of this legislation. He explains that electricity prices will increase to exorbitant rates, that the demand for electricity will exceed the abilities of the electrical grid, and that the resulting decrease in global temperature would only be 0.003 ⁰C.

“What Does It Cost?” draws heavily from a report by Jonathan Lesser and Mitch Rolling, which you can review here:

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

"Consequences of the Net Zero Energy Agenda..."

...an energy grid with next-to-zero reliability.

(Look at what happened to Spain and France today... running on "renewables"...):
