I want to thank Stephen Moore and Kathleen Hartnett White for their excellent book "Fueling Freedom". I have read many books on energy production and economical benefits. Most just gave me the "flavor" equivalent to licking cake icing off my finger. This one gave me the entire moist, delicious cake with double icing! Thank you Stephen and Kathleen.
If you were leaning GREEN all these years since the politicians unveiled their position to get rich or make their friends rich with FAKE advertising, then your face will turn red with shame after you read some of the details in this book. they reference over 625 other documents, books, articles, people to present the REAL benefit of Fossil fuels and how the world grew and fended off poverty because of more affordable and useful energy. they go way beyond the simple facts that green energy can never, never replace fossil fuels. Most people can't associate fossil fuels to anything except heating buildings and driving their vehicles,boats, etc. They are ignorant to the fact that EVERYTHING depends on affordable energy and the amount needed is so much larger than they view in their green myopic lens. The government officials and EPA themselves admitted that the best they can expect even by 2050 is about 10% of total total energy requirements. Folks, energy is needed to grow your food, make all products, make steel and other building materials, everything in addition to transportation and heating. AND Green Renewable energy cost more to produce energy than to it can produce. Don't believe me, read this!
So you say So What? It's clean. Well NO. All the extra processes to make renewable energy is NOT green by the greenie definition. Did you know that an electric grid, that's the entire distribution network to deliver electricity, needs to provide STABLE energy. Fluctuations in in flow disrupt or cause much more reprocessing requirements to stabilize the network. As a matter of fact, BACKUP coal/gas/other plants need to continue to run to ensure the network remains stable. For, Wind and Solar are NOT available 24 hours a day. Only up to 20% maximum energy of the rated capacity (if it always produces) is ever available. Texas uses the a figure 8%-10% as the max. for wind for when the peak summer requirements are upon us, the winds are slight if any at all! And the foot print! Wow, 7-10 x more land is required. There goes the Co2 eating trees and vegetation. The authors delve into detail re Co2 which is a necessity for plant growth and provided NO harm to humans who also breather it. We ARE carbon machines if you didn't know.
I wish I could go on and on with the details covered in this book. there is so much I'd have to copy it in entirely here. Just go read it. Especially you youngsters who are being indoctrinated with lies re the role of Fossil fuels in the economy and the so-called-benefits of green technologies. In this book you'll learn how England and Germany bit on the carrot only to be led to the roaster. Both countries are now paying 2-3 times what our electric costs and poverty has increased because people can't afford electric. they have returned to burning WOOD (considered a renewable source for energy credits) despite it carbon and other gas output. Whereas the poverty had been decreasing since fossil energy became available it is now increasing! As a matter of face, the International watchdogs also got on the wrong train and are penalizing countries by NOT providing funding for fossil fuel plants for electric. What's more important? People's lives and economic growth or useless, politicized carbon credits? This boils me!
Mankind can NOT prosper without fossil fuels, so get over the green-thing. Green energy is NOT profitable and can NOT provide the requirements necessary now or never. Green energy cost more -- it's companies can ONLY remain profitable with subsidies (your tax dollars). Green is POLITICAL and Rich Wealth building while it lasts.
PLEASE read this book!
