Robert. You of course are 100% right. It does amaze me the level of ignorance in this area. Our soup throwing, super gluing 20-somethings are a perfect example. They know bupkus. And the media fans it. And the EU is in trouble…solar and wind don’t work obviously unless it’s sunny and windy. Batteries aren’t even close. Thanks for your efforts sir

Superb, Robert.

We have a piece in our idea bin from a couple months ago we never wrote. The title was going to be “Back to Petroleum”. We still may write it.

Keep chopping, Robert. The canopy of prevarication is getting thinner and the masses are starting to see the sky now.

A fine oration but you omit completely the argument for the opposing view, which is that everything fossil fuels gave mankind can equally come, and soon, from solar and wind energy. That this view is wrong is particularly hard to prove, especially when so many of our institutions, educational in particular, and governments are convinced that electricity can completely replace fossil fuels. Proving the contrary is a lot tougher than advocating unlimited cheap energy for the disadvantaged. It's a challenge worth pursuing!

What a great presentation! You are a terrific speaker and the message is so powerful. I think we are starting to win and you deserve much of the credit for turning things around. Trump and Elon are helping a bit, too, but you guys who have been in the trenches all these years deserve credit as well. Again great presentation!

Thank you, Robert, for all your contributions to the world of energy realism.

NetZero is a dead man walking. No matter how much caterwauling is heard from climate calamitists, the public needs to know that there are no viable plans to power the world without thermal generation.

Alarmists love to spend their days hashing out AGW minutiae…but will rarely engage on response plans except to call anyone expecting a detailed response plan a “Denier.”

Actually, the activists used to be concerned about energy poverty people, but these people didn't want their fake electricity, so I suppose the activists tossed in the towel. https://freebeacon.com/issues/indian-solar-village-a-total-failure/

Zero energy poverty by 2050 is possible with continuous support from writers/advocates like you! Thank you to all human flourishing pro energy advocates driving home the messages 🇨🇦🗽🇺🇸 North American energy companies!!
