Environmentalist: Green New Deal Renewables CAN'T Save the Planet

Sandy Cortez is not the first person to come up with a green new deal proposal, to run the planet off of renewable energy. Michael Shellenberger, founder and president of Environmental Progress, appeared on Tucker Carlson Tonight explaining he was one of the original founders of a green new deal proposal between 2003-07 and was involved with the obama regime when they were making their green energy push.

The difference between Shellenberger and Cortez is he identified and accepts that solar and wind technology are unreliable as well as "the low energy density of sunlight and wind. And basically what we have been finding is that the lower the energy density of the fuel, in this case sunlight and wind, the bigger the environmental impact. You just have to use a lot more natural resources including land to generate very much electricity."

In other words the amount of wind and light is not enough to produce the necessary energy we need to get off of fossil fuels.

Solar panels and windmills would have to be everywhere destroying the very planet kooks like Sandy Cortez and her ilk want to protect with her Green New Deal proposal. Just a few years ago billionaire T Boone Pickens was all on-board with developing massive wind farms but dropped it over similar reasons of ecological impact and the energy needed would not be produced! It's a nice idea but it doesn't work, and Cortez's plan, let's be honest, will get people killed!

Shellenberger, is left but he's at least reasonable, grounded in a world of reality. Cortez on the other-hand lives on a different plane of existence, promising prosperity via a pot of gold or and a place the Easter Bunny could live in. This is what makes people like her dangerous because they base their opinions on feelings vs facts. Nuclear is far more safer, meeting our energy needs. Sandy doesn't care about that she knows her GND opens the door for wealth redistribution and complete control over the people.

Obama Tries to Take Credit for Booming US Oil and Gas Industries

The man who sank BILLIONS into failed green energy programs (list below) apparently claims to be the genius behind the booming fossil fuel (oil and gas) production!

Yes, America barack obama is again taking credit for the very industry he demonized. He ceded US energy production to our competitors (some one could argue are our enemies) yet thinks the boom in oil and gas industry is because of him. Wasn't this the same obama who condemned fracking, which is the technology behind a lot of the booming production? How can you take credit for oil and gas production if you did everything possible to stop the technology that yielded it!?

When obama would say he was in favor of "all of the above" in energy production he was literally talking about only those sources above ground: wind, solar, hydro etc. His admin, via weaponizing the EPA and other agencies did everything possible to limit our oil and gas production.

Never seen anyone who worked so hard to destroy American industry and wealth be so self-centered and delusional that the very industries he tried to destroy, now booming, are because of him! It's not funny, it's sick and just goes to show how dangerous obama was/ still is to this country. Listen to that crowd applaud him, they think he is a god.


Let's not forget one of obama's greatest hits, when he vowed to bankrupt the coal industry (fossil fuel).
