#Energiewende be like:
— Mom, why is school and trains not working?
— It's the weather to blame!
> In the first half of 2021, coal shot up as the biggest contributor to Germany's electric grid, while wind power dropped to its lowest level since 2018. Officials say the weather is partly to blame.

I never really understood the interest in topics of "organic", "natural" shared with unapproved synthetic drugs, and the most disgusting pile of vile #covid lies this "Natural News" profile is sharing.
The thing is, if they are posting these, someone must be reading them. They have 2.2k followers on Fediverse alone.
What must be happening in these people's brains that they swallow this "natural" and "organic" and "buy budesonide" and "vaxssassination" bullshit *at the same time?* 🤔
Two energy companies have already bankrupted in the UK 🇬🇧 as the fossil gas prices are reaching record high (overnight it exceeded 1400 EUR in UK).
Engineering community has warned about volatility of the gas price, and dependency of renewables on gas, but that has been ignored as the general public was fed "renewables powered 100% of the country for another 2 hours" fables 🤷
I think the whole #ivermectin is primarily about business - cleverly stimulated demand, based on "counter-cultural" mythology, just as with #homeopathy, and other alt-med like all kind of "miracle" cancer drugs. Just look at these prices - and dozens of shops can be found online:
Anti-electricity cartoon from 1889.
Electricity is portrayed as a spider with a cobweb of electrical wires for trapping its human victims.
Also features the mandatory skull, dead horse, and a mother with a child killed by the daemon.

How a Russian Mobile App Developer Recruited Phones into a Secret Ad-Watching Robot Army - OCCRP
A Russian mobile app publishing network appears to have infected millions of phones with malware that converts games into quiet money-making machines.
Who needs enemies if you have Friends of the Earth? 🤦♂️
> California approved decommissioning of Diablo Canyon #nuclear power plant
> California applied for an emergency order to boot natural gas generation for grid reliability while potentially exceeding limits on harmful pollutants
Two ignorants - Saker and Giuliani - are talking on BBC about US invasion in Iraq and Afghanistan. Saker:
> what do you say about the hundreds of thousands civilians killed by the invasion?
Giuliani:
> well I'm sure that is significantly exaggerated
However, both of them are wrong. Vast majority of the civilian casualties in Iraq were killed by militias formed by former Saddam Hussein's army (red below), and various islamist groups.
🇵🇱Latem ubiegłego roku fundacja Grzegorza Brauna opublikowała książkę "Fałszywa pandemia".
Główne jej przesłanie sprowadza się do "już po epidemii". Jest tam dużo bzdur i wyśmiewania "paniki".
Od tej pory na COVID-19 zmarło w Polsce ponad 70'000 osób...
How one foil-wrapped home survived the Caldor Fire as everything around it burned
Of course, coal has massive *external* costs, namely pollution, waste, CO2, that are not captured in the spot price.
Meanwhile France 🇫🇷 has the same 130 EUR/MWh price as Germany 🇩🇪 but 7x (seven times) lower emissions - it burns no coal and barely any gas. It's nuclear fleet is on the other hand running at 70% capacity right now:
Now, Poland 🇵🇱 is running quite relaxed at 94 GBP/MWh and... 679 gCO2eq/kWh...
Hard to argue that coal still is not the cheapest fuel with rather stable prices, while gas is simply highly volatile, and right now it's very expensive.
This completely contradicts the LCOE estimates published by Lazard etc who present coal as 2x more expensive than gas. Of course, if you cherry-pick data during cheap gas period you can get that result...
Meanwhile, United Kingdom 🇬🇧 CO2 emissions is around 300 gCO2eq/kWh and the baseload price is at 279.94 GBP/MWh - but overnight it reached 800 GBP! The primary difference seems to be larger share of fossil gas, as UK has closed most (all?) of its coal power plants.

"Over the past five and a half years, a total of 426 targeting incidents have occurred. Almost three-quarters of them (314 out of 426; 74%) have resulted in some form of sanction."
The fact that "energy-saving improvements such as installing double-glazing" is still discussed as some kind of luxury in the UK 🇬🇧 never stops to amaze me 🤦♂️ I can imagine British stag party goers in Poland boasting to girls in a pub about the ultimate superiority of Great Britain: "hey sweetie, can you believe, me house even has double-glazed windows and an in-door toilet". 😂
