The looming alternative energy materials crisis
By Donn Dears |February 8th, 2023|Economy, Energy|1 Comment

The Geological Survey of Finland published a 1,000-page report on the extra capacity required for alternative sources, primarily wind, solar and battery-powered vehicles, to completely replace fossil fuels.

It estimated the amount of materials required and concluded that it was impossible to mine enough materials for wind, solar, and BEVs to replace fossil fuels.

The report made the astonishing conclusion that mankind would have to adjust its lifestyle if fossil fuels were to be replaced. It brings to mind other reports, such as from The Club of Rome, and Ehrlich’s book, The Population Bomb.

But, the fact remains it is impossible to mine enough material to supply all the battery-powered cars if all cars, light vehicles, were to be battery-powered.

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

The sooner this happens, the better.

Let it pop the "alternative energy bubble"...  the same way that jet popped the Chinese spy balloon a few days ago...

Not a problem, but a feature, to the Global Reset crowd.
The Republic is lost.
