Fracking uses HUGE amounts of ground water and might potentially contaminate the water supply and might stimulate earthquakes? Solar panels are turning out to be a difficult energy solution? Solar farms look like a lake to birds and thereby kill them? Geothermal… will that destabilize the ground and result in earthquakes? Off-shore drilling is terrible for sealife … similar to wind… with the noise pollution devastating sea life? And frequently end up contaminating the ocean with oil spills? Wind is turning out to be not financially viable? And, the windmills kill birds? Nuclear plant at San Onofre is right on top of an earthquake fault and on the ocean? Geez… energy is difficult. And some say that we’re not actually running out of oil? Is oil not actually a fossil fuel but abiotic and possibly unlimited? Didn’t California CPUC allow the Sunrise Powerlink? There was speculation at the time that we were getting set up to receive oil from Mexico via the Powerlink. The good news in all of this is that CO2 global warming is just a scam?

How solar farms took over the California desert
‘An oasis has become a dead sea’

Residents feel trapped and choked by dust,
while experts warn environmental damage is
‘solving one problem by creating others’

“We’ve been led to believe that all solar is good solar. But it’s not when it molests pristine land, requires hundreds of millions of dollars to transmit to city centres, and loses so much power along the way. It is simply preserving the monopoly of the big energy companies.”

Evidence Says
Offshore Wind Development Is Killing Lots Of Whales

“To date NOAA has issued an astounding 46 one-year IHA’s for offshore wind sites. Site characterization typically includes the protracted use of what I call ‘machine gun sonar‘. This shipboard device emits an incredibly loud noise several times a second, often for hours at a time, as the ship slowly maps the sea floor.”

David Wojick, Ph.D.

Have at least 350 whales died since 2016 along the east coast… in the same ocean area where Offshore Wind Development has been happening? Will the endangered right whale go extinct? Is the noise that ships make equivalent to 90 decibels on land… and happening day and night? Is that louder than the NOAA even allows? Do whales use their hearing for navigation and care of their offspring?

Will the waves created by wind turbines destroy plankton (whale food)?

Is the California legislature going to allow this to happen to our ocean off the coast of California? Did the federal government recently lease 583 square miles off the California coast for offshore wind farms?

Are both onshore and offshore wind energy projects uneconomic?

Geothermal sounds like an energy source with potential. How much more expensive is geothermal than oil and gas?

In California, does a lower water table already result in more earthquakes? If we drill holes in the earth, would that put even more stress on terra firma and provoke even more earthquakes?

41:09 “There is no shortage of water. And, there are some relatively cheap technologies for producing water… Really, the idea about peak water, is… it’s going to get into shorter and shorter supply. And, therefore, we need to have government come in and take control of it all.” – Dr. Tim Ball

53:37 “…They wanted something that was global in its stride, to argue that no one government could manage it.

They came very close. In 2009, there was a conference… in Copenhagen, at which they were going to finalize the carbon tax for the world. That was going to fund all of this one world government. It was going to be done through the IMF (the International Monetary Fund) which, of course, is another of these great over-arching unaccountable bureaucracies.

These people really believe that only they can run the world… They want one world government. They want to get rid of national governments and individualism.” – Dr. Tim Ball
