Plastic, Windmills & Solar Panels

The environmental racket called “climate change” created more problems and solved none. The cost of it impoverishes us and will create mountains of toxic landfills, something no one wants to talk about.

Welcome to the insanity timeline.

Not that long ago, the grocery store bagged your food in paper. Then we were told plastic was the responsible choice. It would save the trees.

Now we know plastic doesn’t break down. It sits in landfills for centuries or ends up in the ocean, where it tangles and chokes wildlife. So what did the experts decide? Back to paper.

That was just the warm up.

Then came the war on fossil fuels. Gas and coal were the villains. Nuclear, the one proven source of clean, steady, around-the-clock power, was treated as taboo.

So we got solar. Massive solar farms went up across the desert. But the sun sets every night, and we still don’t have an affordable way to store that power at scale. California’s Ivanpah plant was scorching birds out of the sky, and now it’s being shut down years ahead of schedule. Panels wear out in about 25 to 30 years, and most of them head straight to the landfill.

Then came wind. The turbines looked great in the brochure. In real life the blades crack, wear out, and sometimes snap off and fall into the ocean, like the one off Nantucket in 2024. Old blades are nearly impossible to recycle, so they get buried.

Then electric cars were going to save us. Their batteries require massive open pit mines. The cobalt inside many of them comes from mines in the Congo where children do the digging. And when those batteries catch fire, crews can pour tens of thousands of gallons of water on them and still struggle to put it out.

When the batteries die, they have to go somewhere too.

Everybody wants clean air and clean water. That’s exactly why this record matters. Every “solution” gets sold as settled science, then quietly becomes the next problem.

So how is all this environmental safety working out?
