All coal electricity generation is stopped.

Should the natural gas supply be cut off to your house first...

Or to the electrical generation plants that run on natural gas?

You know the answer... your house.

We are insane... to believe that we will not have long very cold winters in our near future!!!

China and Russia rely on coal and natural gas... they still are capable of keeping their electrical grids and homes heated... they are not a part of the insane New Green Deal.

Warren Buffet and Bill Gates dreamed up this new 'Green Deal'... to line their pockets... you can be sure they are not freezing in the cold tonight!!! !!!

Nor is President Biden or PM Justin Trudeau... NDP/Liberal/Green MP.s at risk of freezing in the dark. They are smarter than to live where they might freeze in the dark!!!

The b-tillion ares win... while the rest of us will pay with our lives and families lives

Wind mills frozen
Solar Panels covered with Ice and snow
Coal generators shut down
Nuclear not green...
Natural Gas not green enough

People in Texas freeze in the dark tonight
Politicians point fingers at every one except themselves

Energy diversity is good
Climate will always cause energy instability..
Fossil Fuels are inexpensive energy dense dependable sources to power civilization ... 3rd World... and advanced Western society.

China depends on coal...

We freeze in our Cold then pay 10x more for our energy than China and Russia

Are we this foolish and suicidal to not think this through?? ?

Why are we letting the lunatics run our governments?

Tried and true fossil fuels, CO2 generators for food production bad - ass backwards fools can freeze in the dark.

An unfortunate situation for people living in Texas. From the little bit I read not only are the windmills and solar panels putting out no power a natural gas shortage due to frozen well heads have shut down natural gas power plants due to lack of natural gas. Natural gas and electricity spot prices have set new all time records in the state. With temperatures as low as-22 having no power or heat could prove disastrous. In another article I read one place in Minnesota reported a low temperature of -38 Fahrenheit(-39 Celsius), cold for sure. Not a localized phenomenon though, many areas of North America and Europe have experienced record breaking cold this winter, almost makes you wish Al Gore was right and that cold winters wouldnâ€™t happen any more!

One of Teslas investing cult members Cathie Wood claims Tesla is going to put rail line out of business. Autonomous elec vehicles delivering grain and steel and and ore all over the country.

Nice reality check today for the unicorn group.

Coal and natural gas power generation is very much appreciated at -40.
