** Amy is using more than windmills to kill birds.
------------------------------------------------------------
Washington Free Beacon ([link removed]) (9/30/19) blog: "Senator Amy Klobuchar (D., Minn.) has long struggled to contain the blinding rage that burns beneath her 'Minnesota nice' façade...Klobuchar's rage issues are not confined to her Senate office. Her victims are not exclusively human. The failed presidential candidate recounted her first time playing golf, a notoriously frustrating sport for beginners that should not be attempted by individuals prone to violent tantrums, while speaking at a United Food and Commercial Workers union event on Sunday. 'I did one time try to play golf,' Klobuchar explained in between outbursts of maniacal laughter. 'But I misfired on the first try, and the ball hit a duck in the head, and it appeared to perish. So I don’t think it is a good idea for the bird population of America if I would play golf.' In any event, Klobuchar's avian body count is almost certainly dwarfed by that of President Obama, who spent his eight
years in office orchestrating a ruthless bird genocide that claimed the lives of untold majestic bald eagles, the majority of which were callously sacrificed on the altar of so-called green energy. Under the Obama regime, birds were routinely 'smacked out of the air by the blades of high-speed wind turbines and are killed or horribly injured,' a PETA spokesman told the Washington Free Beacon in 2012."
** "As Canadians consider carbon taxes, they need to look at the experience in B.C. where this all started. It only makes people here poorer while emissions continue to rise. Don’t fall for it."

More Oil. More Gas. No Kidding.

(9/29/19) column: "Numerous energy headlines from this past week alone caught my attention. They perfectly illustrate the massive scale of investment plans for oil and gas projects around the world...This is the official modeling from the U.S. Department of Energy and its National Energy Modeling System. This is not from ExxonMobil, the Sierra Club, or the American Wind Energy Association trying to sell you something or make you think a certain way. This is the outlook of the U.S. Department of Energy...What's past is prologue: more oil, more natural gas. No kidding. These two essential fuels supply nearly 65% of the energy used in the U.S. and global economies. Global annual oil demand has been surging ~1.4 million b/d since 2000 alone, with gas usage up 8 Bcf/d per year...Just last year alone, global gas demand jumped over 5% to a staggering 137 trillion cubic feet. That's a Marcellus' shale worth of production devoured every three weeks."

(9/30/19) Blog: "Assume for a moment that man-made carbon emissions are a major cause of climate change and that a changing climate is both brand new and all bad. If private, profit-seeking entrepreneurs developed new technology that could suck carbon dioxide out of the air, would climate alarmists embrace it? If our minds were more open—if we mustered more confidence in what free people can accomplish and learned to be more skeptical of bungling big government—we might take notice of some remarkable things already happening. Maybe we’re looking to the wrong people for the right answers...In the 1984 film Ghostbusters, four parapsychology cranks finally are tossed out on their ears from cushy jobs at a state university. Lamenting their predicament, one of them suggests going into business for themselves. Dr. Raymond Stantz (Dan Aykroyd) expresses his reservations this way: 'Personally, I liked the university. They gave us money and facilities. We didn’t have to produce anything. You’ve
never been out of college. You don’t know what it’s like out there. I’ve worked in the private sector. They expect results!' You can look to politicians, bureaucrats, and the subsidized for answers to big problems if you want. Not me. My money is on the entrepreneurs."
While everyone is focused on a few measly million going to Ukraine, Steyer is offering up 20o billion.

(9/27/19) reports: "Democratic presidential candidate Tom Steyer on Friday unveiled his plan to combat climate change globally, including a 'Global Green New Deal Fund' that would cost $200 billion over 10 years. The plan would commit $20 billion annually for 10 years to fund global climate justice projects, according to a statement from his campaign. A post outlining the plan said that the fund would be U.S.-led and would 'leverage private capital.' The post also said that Steyer hopes to transition to a carbon-neutral economy and would try to make all noncombat military operations, facilities, and contracts carbon-neutral by 2030. The candidate added that he would rejoin the Paris climate agreement, which Trump withdrew the U.S. from."
A movement 'for the children' sure is traumatizing quite a few of them.

(9/24/19) column: "Greta Thunberg needs to get a grip. The celebrity teen climate activist addressed the United Nations and excoriated the assembled worthies: 'You all come to us young people for hope. How dare you! You have stolen my dreams and my childhood with your empty words.' Someone may have stolen her childhood, but the guilty parties can’t be found at Turtle Bay...If climate change proves a significant challenge, today’s youth will have more resources and technology to grapple with it than any other generation in the history of mankind. Of course, the adults they listen to don’t tell them any of this. Instead, they feed the kids a diet of apocalyptic warnings that children repeat back as if they were urgent insights. One speaker at the youth climate rally in Washington, D.C., last week said that we have just 18 months — yes, only until the beginning of 2021 — to forestall irreversible environmental harms. According to National Geographic, 'more than a few teens who began as
fervent activists have dropped out, citing depression, anxiety, and other fears that the world’s leaders will not act in time to prevent their lives — and the lives of their children — from being irretrievably altered by climate change.'"
