The Green Blues

September 20, 2022

       1% of U.S. voters think climate is a real crisis. From the years 1979 to 2000, global temperature averages got no hotter. In fact, the entire mindset, as a political agenda, had to drop the label “Global Warming” because the science showed that the globe was, in fact, not warming at all. Now, the progressives have just renamed it “Climate Change,” and even though they have zero evidence to support that the climate has changed (because all the science, which they claim to diligently follow, says otherwise), they still insist we switch immediately away from fossil fuels and on to electric vehicles and what they call other “sustainable” forms of energy.  

The Climate Crisis doesn’t exist and they know it. It is a Big Green Lie.

And the American people know it, too.

Don’t get me started on what Germany and even Texas had to learn about wind turbines when the wind stopped or solar energy when the clouds came. And yet, despite the literal darkness and frigid temperatures these alternative forms of energy forced people to endure, the climate alarmists just double down on their nonsense.

There is nothing wrong with wind and solar forms of energy, as long as they are supported by, or secondary to, other sources of energy that are proven and stable, including the very clean form of natural gas. Wind and solar can be used, but only with coal-generated electricity or natural gas to back them up, because they inevitably will have periods in which they won’t work (i.e.: when the wind isn’t blowing and the sun isn’t shining). Duh.

        When electricity was invented in the early 1900’s, and ways to mass-produce it were being created and developed, a conversion had to take place in order to replace the gas lighting of streets and buildings with electric power. This conversion from gas to electricity took place gradually, over some time. It was a better way, a development for the good of all humanity, and so it took place, as it should have. But it happened over time as nations, regions, businesses and individual homeowners could afford the development of power plants, the regional infrastructure improvements and the individual building and home installations that were needed in order for the electricity to function.

No one forced the conversion from gas to electricity on all of society overnight. No one just shut the gas pipes off and said, “Too bad if you don’t yet have electricity installed in your home. Now you’ll have to convert to it because we shut off all the gas and you won’t have any lights unless you install electricity.”

But this is what the Biden regime is doing to the American citizens right now. Biden has shut down oil and gas production in the U.S., almost overnight, forcing a conversion to non-fossil forms of fuel. This is not only making us less safe, but also driving prices of gasoline for our cars and utilities for our homes up dramatically for all Americans. And this is happening at the same time that the Democrats are working ceaselessly to destroy our economy and after shutting down businesses they’re now spending and printing to cause inflation. They don’t care about you, American citizens who are paying their bills. The Democrats do not care about you or America, at all.

By shutting down our gas and oil production so hastily, they demand we make this (not better for the environment (that is a lie), or humanity, conversion today. This is being done for the benefit of China and the Democrat-power machine – not you and me.

And their demand of this accelerated conversion off of gas and oil is a bigger national security problem than you may realize.

But, you say, California has passed laws stating that all gasoline-powered vehicles must be replaced by Electric Vehicles no later than 2035 – that’s thirteen years from now! That’s giving time for the conversion from gas powered vehicles to electric vehicles to take place.

First of all, how is it right for California government to force something on the people instead of letting free markets decide?  (The answer is: it isn’t. But they are Socialists.)

Secondly, although there is some time to make that mandated conversion (of outlawing gas powered vehicles), it’s not the imminent issue. The real issue slapping us in the face right now (besides their socialism, which we don’t want) is that the Biden regime began a war against the U.S. gas and oil industry the day he took office (by starting with the shutting down of the Keystone Pipeline on day one). And he’s been shutting down drilling operations and pipelines in America ever since.  This war on energy being waged by the Biden regime is the real imminent issue because it is making the U.S. weaker.

While the “Climate Criminal,” Taylor Swift flies her private jet all over the world (as of August 4, 2020 she had flown it 170 times so far this year), all-the-while screaming about climate change policies and how this conversion is absolutely necessary for you and me right now; we smell a rat.

Let’s have a moratorium on private jet usage until we have this “climate crisis” solved, what do you say?

Here is some truth for you:

Each single Electric Vehicle battery, on average, uses the following minerals to produce:

60 lbs. of Nickel

30 lbs. of Cobalt

25 lbs. of Lithium

400 lbs. of Aluminum, Magnesium, Steel, and Plastic

44 lbs. of Manganese

200 lbs. of Copper

The mining equipment required to move the 500 tons of earth/ore which will be refined into one lithium battery burns 900-1,000 gallons of fuel in one 12-hour shift. Also, lithium is refined with sulfuric acid. Mining it requires up to 75 semi-truck loads of sulfuric acid per day.

There are 5 stages in getting from the RAW MATERIALS to the finished product of the electric vehicle (lithium) battery. And the only role the U.S. plays a part in, in the whole entire supply chain of these batteries, is at the very end of it. We buy them.

China currently has a 77% share in the mining, production, refinement and processing of the materials, manufacturing of the batteries themselves as well as the transportation and shipping of them. And in a couple of years they will have an 80% share. Our share will go from 9% to 6%. 

Once one electric car battery is made, you have to realize that it will produce -0- power itself. It only stores electricity that comes from oil and gas. So, why support the mining of massive amounts of minerals, poison the earth and ruin the environment, all-the-while using the oppressed Uyghurs and child-slave labor forces, to accomplish this? You can’t support the production of electric vehicles and at the same time, say you care about the environment when their production does nothing but strip and poison the planet – that is just a lie.

And by supporting this Green Agenda you will never convince the rest of us that you are Social Justice warriors and love people, when it does nothing but exploit an already oppressed ethnic group as well as exploit children as young as six-years-old as mine workers.

So, what is the reason for it?

Why do the Democrats want to shove this rat sandwich down our throats? The answer is simple: Because these minerals are mined primarily in China and the Congo (controlled by China) and the entire industry will elevate China and debase the United States.

It is just another way toward the deliberate destruction of America, which the Democrats and China (and others) so desire. You don’t have to look very far to see that.

Just Keep on Truckin’

Instead of developing more pipelines, let’s shut down existing pipelines, requiring us to use even more fossil fuels to truck what we do have to refineries. And all the while, we’ll preach that we are in a climate crisis due to fossil fuels. This doesn’t make any sense and is crazy policy. This is what they call double-speak.

Since Biden declared and implemented a war on the American gas and oil industry and has shut down drilling operations, pipelines, and greatly reduced our production of oil and gas, we are far less safe and at the same time, the prices we’re experiencing at the gas pump and on our utility bills have exploded. And as he continues his war on America, the prices will escalate and we will be less and less safe. In other words, it will only get worse.

Also, Biden has depleted our national strategic petroleum reserves to an all-time low. You know, the stuff the American people paid for to keep us out of a national security crisis. Biden had reduced our reserves by 40% already, by spring of 2022, but they’re even more depleted by now. He’s even had the gall to sell millions of gallons of our reserves to China. In recent months he’s been pulling from it in massive quantities in order to reduce the price of gas at the pump – the high prices being caused by him – in hopes of softening the blow to American taxpayers before we go to the polls in November. He is putting our national security at risk in order to put some sugar on the rat sandwich; hoping to draw Independents and moderates to vote for the Democratic Party congressional candidates in the upcoming November election. (Pssst: if they win, it will only be because they cheated.)

With all of these problems we’re having – all of them caused by the Democrats – will you vote for them because gas is $3.89/gallon instead of $4.89/gallon, even if by keeping the price of gas lowered by $1.00 a gallon, they weakened our national security?

Meanwhile, recent polls show that 7 out of 10 Americans feel less safe under the Biden regime. And, based on the things we’ve been pointing out here, we should. That is not phantom fear; it’s real fear.

Also meanwhile, Californians suffer black-outs. They can’t even plug in their mandated electric vehicles in order to keep them running because there’s no electricity to charge them with. Nothing to plug them in to. Why is this happening? Because of socialist California’s policies to shut down oil and gas. Wow. As I often say about the stupidity of the woke agenda: you just can’t make this stuff up.

This is all being done for the goal of bringing down free enterprise and free-market capitalism in order to turn everything over to the socialist government that they lust for. More power for them and less for you and me.

Americans, how do you like this Satanic Socialism so far?

It’s not even the policies that help green business and industry that bother  me most. It’s the out-of-touch-with-reality, nonsensical Biden regime and the climate-crisis screamers that are just so abhorrent because they’re deliberately staring into the air while the rest of us suffer and the U.S. is in peril. And that’s what they want. They are liars – all of them and this is their lame attempt to distract the American public away from what is really happening: the disaster that is them.

We have huge problems in this country (caused by them) and instead of going in front of the anti-Semitic U.N. to talk about the looming possibility of nuclear war, the escalation of aggression of Russia in the Ukraine and of China toward Taiwan, Biden goes before them and talks about Climate Change. And then he turns to shake hands with the air. Again. He wanders around, lost, up on the world stage.

And if that weren’t a putrid enough stench, then the U.N. members bend over backwards to kiss his ring. It’s all quite sickening, really.

So, Putin publicly announces nuclear threats, not only to the Ukraine but also to any nation that helps and supports them, and meanwhile Biden’s main focus is on Climate Change (oh, and also destroying President Trump, of course. Trying desperately, but failing, to scare our society into believing that all “America First” supporters are domestic terrorists. Heil Biden!)

The second thing that bothers me about their Climate Change Crisis rhetoric is that by issuing their despicable policies that killed the U.S.’s energy independence overnight, they, in-so-doing, immediately made us dependent on Russia for oil. Saudi Arabia and OPEC, too, but that’s not relevant to this point: So we are now buying millions and millions of barrels of oil from Russia and basically funding their invasion of the Ukraine, killing hundreds of thousands of innocent people.  And then the Democrats send billions to the Ukraine to help them fend off Russia. So, we are stupidly funding both sides of a war, while ruining our own economy.

You couldn’t make this stuff up if you tried.

All the while, as we often say here: the radical Democrats have a much bigger problem than they realize. Or, maybe they do realize it. They have become the Devil’s Party – the Party that stands against God. And that is a big problem for them.

Psalm 59:5

You, Lord God Almighty, you who are the God of Israel, rouse yourself to punish all the nations; show no mercy to wicked traitors.

Psalm 94: 1-3, 12-17, 20-23

The Lord is a God who avenges.
    O God who avenges, shine forth.
Rise up, Judge of the earth;
    pay back to the proud what they deserve.
How long, Lord, will the wicked,
    how long will the wicked be jubilant?

12 Blessed is the one you discipline, Lord,
    the one you teach from your law;
13 you grant them relief from days of trouble,
    till a pit is dug for the wicked.
14 For the Lord will not reject his people;
    he will never forsake his inheritance.
15 Judgment will again be founded on righteousness,
    and all the upright in heart will follow it.

16 Who will rise up for me against the wicked?
    Who will take a stand for me against evildoers?
17 Unless the Lord had given me help,
    I would soon have dwelt in the silence of death.

20 Can a corrupt throne be allied with you—
    a throne that brings on misery by its decrees?
21 The wicked band together against the righteous
    and condemn the innocent to death.
22 But the Lord has become my fortress,
    and my God the rock in whom I take refuge.
23 He will repay them for their sins
    and destroy them for their wickedness;
    the Lord our God will destroy them.

    Excellent. I wish the “powers that be” would actually read this blog and “take heed” to the truths it holds, seek the Lord, turn from their wicked ways and receive Christ as their Lord and Savior. He is the only answer for our country.
