What will today's "Green Generation" be remembered for?
By Viv Forbes
Already they have re-discovered wind power, wood
energy and electric cars that were tried and largely rejected a century ago;
they now encourage the production of once-banned ethanol corn whiskey, but
waste it on cars; they spurn the energy potential of nuclear, coal, oil and
gas; and they would close our airports and lock up our resources whilst
developing computerised spy-ware to record, regulate, ration and tax our usage
of everything.
And one branch of NASA, the once-great risk-taking
scientific and engineering body that put Neil Armstrong on the moon, is now
supporting an anti-carbon anti-industry cult that advocates the closure of the
whole coal industry from mine to power station.
The legacy of today's doom-mongers will be measured
by the number of dams not built, the number of mines, factories, farms, forests
and fishing grounds closed and the number of humans starving or living in
poverty.
Like the emperors of the Nero era in ancient Rome,
they celebrate their destructive achievements by staging expensive Climate
Circuses, while behind closed doors they plot to destroy the last vestiges of
the freedom and property rights that allowed past generations to "Reach
for the Stars".
The slogan of the coming era should be
"Retreat to the Past".
So vale Neil Armstrong and Steve Jobs - we are
losing far more than most people realise.
(For a look at the achievements of the Green
Generation, have a look here at how their $250 billion investment in “Renewable” energy is panning out:
Those funds they have spent are not renewable. They
were wasted on unproductive junk.
