Australia’s recent embrace of green energy leads it closer to the brink of an energy disaster.

Writer and blogger Jo Nova makes an argument about the cause of the Australian wildfires outside of the climate narrative, such as the historical trend of fires and lack of fire management.

Greens know that Australia could not electrify our cities, farms, mines, refineries and factories, nor power our road, rail, air and sea transport with just solar, wind, hydro and batteries.

Burning forests to generate electricity is probably the worst green energy stupidity.

The Saltbush Club, an Australian group whose members include scientists, scholars, environmentalists, farmers, and business people, among others from a variety of disciplines and walks of life, was formed out of concern the Australian government’s energy policies and its participation in the Paris climate agreement were harming people and the economy, and is calling on Australia’s prime-minister to follow U.S. President Donald Trump’s lead and withdraw Australia from the Paris agreement.

The Green pests are having a dream run in Australia.g

The Australian electricity market has become a stinking swamp covered with a tangled net of treaties, laws, rules, obligations, prohibitions, targets, taxes and subsidies.

POETRY FROM DOWN UNDER: For yonks they waged a war on coal And painted miners black; They threw explorers on the dole, And shut the gates outback.

Both the U.S. and Australia allow dual citizenship. Many Americans and Australians are dual citizens, many without knowing it, by reason of lineage and place of birth.

Because of many problems with wind and solar power individuals are drifting back to diesel powered generators for their electricity needs.
