Who *not* to listen to on energy policy


"On energy policy, listening to environmentalists who value less human impact on earth is as bad as listening to anti-vaxxers & taking seriously a 'vaccine-neutral' vision on health policy."

Good comparison. I find this anti vax and environmental stuff shocking. Two sides of the same coin .

You can apply this to a myriad of other things. Such as doctors in A&E “if you had to see the harm from alcohol that I see” no one ever asks the drinkers or smokers what they think

One should most definitely ignore energy policies which defy the laws of Thermodynamics......
....which is to say most "Green" policies.

Good comparison. Applies to everything when you put foxes in charge of (or talking about) henhouses.

The government says so-called anthropogenic global warming is cured by coercive regulations, such as carbon taxes and other imposts, which the people have to bear. Meanwhile the government gains more and more power over them. The vast majority of the people are less well off as the result.

The government says so-called COVID-19 is cured by coercive regulations, such as mandated experimental gene therapies and mandated house arrests, which the people have to bear. Meanwhile the government steals more and more power over them. The vast majority of the people are less well off as the result.

"Trust the science", they say. "Trust us", they demand.
