    Conservatism and the Environment

    German energy policy in effect got taken over by an alliance of thieves and traitors. The thieves reap the money out of "green transformation" by acting as middlemen, managers, researchers, even producers of hardware that would not have these cushy jobs in a sane setup, while the traitors are...

    https://iec.iaea.org/inesrilt/why-have-these-criteria This explains why Three Mile Island is rated as it is. It's on the basis of effect it had on nuclear industry, not damage caused. OTOH Three Mile Island is also proof that good containment systems can turn what could be a pretty nasty nuclear...

    Green objection to nuclear have no connection with any rational assessment of the threats involved. Their reaction to Fukushima is quite telling of it - they used it to push through a decision to close nuclear power plants in Germany, a country famous for... its total lack of serious earthquakes...

    Conservatism and the Environment

    So which is it? Is it going to start attacking the state of meta-debate about climate change, as in wtf are young people having hammered into their heads by activists in media and schools and how those activists should be stopped, or better yet, replaced by their ideological opposites, or are...

    Conservatism and the Environment

    Yes. That is a massive problem. It needs to start contesting the terms. If it can't, it has to do whatever it takes to gain this capability. No, that's not the right's job. That's DNC's job, if they prefer to not lose elections by rad-green crazy escalation. No, the right absolutely should not...

    Considering the shenanigans that the "tip of the spear" of green activists like the recently popular Extinction Rebellion gets up to, you were perhaps more accurate with your choice of terms than you tried to be...

    Conservatism and the Environment

    I refer you back to the Australia video i posted. If there is such a growing number of youth... for vast majority of them it is because they have been taught to see things like this, and they have been taught specifically to like the same policy Democrats offer, rather than arrived at it out of...

    Conservatism and the Environment

    How many voters who put environmental issues (particularly climate change or other global ones) as their make or break issue for their vote are *not* the fanatical greens who want DNC precisely for their overboard green nutjob policy? Again, you are making a massive assumptions about this...

    Conservatism and the Environment

    Data is data, the problems start in interpretation, policy proposals based on them, and choice of which data to trust. You repeat that, so let me focus a bit on this. This kind of attitude is truly a peak of naivety. Why does it give you hope when there is so little concrete info about it...

    Conservatism and the Environment

    As i said, the biggest weakness the right has in regard to environmental policy is control of education in general. This example is recent and from Australia, but it is very indicative of how the greens win their ideological debates before the right even shows up to the debate - namely...

    Conservatism and the Environment

    It is a passionate, ideological subject we are talking about here, not whether VAT rate should be 6% or 8% or a compromise 7%. If you accept the leftist narrative of climate change being as catastrophic and important as they make it seem, that stipulates certain trust to clearly left controlled...

    Conservatism and the Environment

    Yet again, here you list out issues that are mostly global, and as such, other than virtue signalling and begging/bribing other, usually not even very friendly countries to prioritize environment over developing their more or less (usually less) functional economies, there is not much any...

    Conservatism and the Environment

    Well then contrary to what you said it is not impossible, just very hard. Or your arguments are lacking. There is a reason why i was most agreeable to the forest fires argument, because as we've discussed earlier, that is an example of environmental issue that: a) Affects the citizens in a...

    Conservatism and the Environment

    My point exactly. They are losing the culture war around the subject, not the pragmatic argument around the matter of the subject - as in what environmental policy serves the national interest best. The problem is that cultural institutions indoctrinate young people to consider the green...

    Conservatism and the Environment

    No one cares about what young GOP members think, do they proportionally represent GOP voters? The article you've linked suggests that... not so much. That makes it sound like if they should join Sierra Club or Greenpeace to get their environmental activist bug out of the system (where they...

    Conservatism and the Environment

    The problem is that doing a light, trimmed down version of what greens demanded does not constitute "getting into the driver seat", it's just something that will make no one happy.

    Conservatism and the Environment

    Again, would the end product be cheaper than just the cost of moving conventional fuel by conventional means from the nearest logistical hub? If we're talking logistics, this algae stuff certainly need their own, and making it locally would add another issues that would add to the production...

    How is making everyone around them pay California+ prices for fuel going to help their economy? No, its going to murder their economy. Transporting LNG or diesel around, by truck if necessary, is going to be much cheaper. Due to the needs of such rural places being as small as they are in the...

    These places use so little energy in the grand scheme of things that sticking them on fossil fuels makes no difference in terms of economy or CO2 emissions. Also LNG is a nice option for them.

    Conservatism and the Environment

    You're talking science fiction here. Because if transmission losses for delivering power to remote destinations were a greater concern than the cost of general electric energy production, nuclear, fossil or otherwise, it would mean we're in a sci fi universe. We don't have large amounts of...
