"Green" policies are destroying this country

I wonder did anyone mention to Tara that trebling the number of LNG terminals in Europe would make sweet f a difference where Ireland is concerned as our loonies are attempting to ban the use of LNG.

But perhaps like nuclear as long as we are getting someone else to do the heavy lifting then that is well and dandy. Totally hypocritical imho though seeing as we are expected to do the heavy lifting for some of the wealthiest nations on the planet who are showing they could care less when it comes to burning coal as a cheap energy source, and have no intentions of changing.

Who has challenged me, you ?

You have been running and hiding from anything you have been challenged on.

Of course you are talking long term. It`s what mystics, crystal ball gazers and con men/women do. The further into the future their predictions are the less chance of them being challenged as incorrect. Even though they have nothing to back them up.

My point is that in the here and now we have a very real problem you do not need to look into a crystal ball or at animal entrails to see. Renewable are not reliable at present, and here especiall,y we need natural gas to make up the shortfall. The plan in the next 3 years is to take even more fossil fuel burning plants off the grid with 9 natural gas burning plants to be added. I don`t know if you have noticed, but there is a war going on that is going to severely limit the flow of natural gas into Europe. A shortfall that the E.U. is planning to alleviate by using LNG, yet the Irish Green party and their supporters want to ban LNG.

Simple question. Is the Irish Green party correct and the E.U. wrong, and if so then in the here and now what is your solution to the problem ?

Lol. You have to provide proof of the things you're claiming here otherwise they are just your imagination. In the this instance you've provided no proof regarding your claim about 'decent sized farmers" and 3 phase electricity. You should be absolutely embarrassed to be coming up with bs such claims without proof, but here you repeatedly brazenly it out like its someone's else fault 😅😅😅

Aaannnnnd again the generalised rant and attack of another poster when that poster asks you to provide backup to what you're saying in the relevant comment.

Keep digging Broken, keep digging lol

Nope. That article totally misrepresents the actual observed values for several of those metrics

Temperature and sea levels have not risen anywhere close to any of the IPCC's models. The actual changes track way below IPCC models.

Also I see you have ignored all my other points - you brought up famine and poor harvests, yet ignore the point that "green" farming policies in this country would put us even more at risk of that? curious

Aah Broken, do you actually believe that anyone here hasn`t copped that rather than answer the simplest question from you it`s rants, accusations and and attempts at deflection. It`s so predictable at this stage it`s sad.

If you are looking for a quote that the Green Party and there supporters are living in a fantasy world of 100% renewables in the morning while not having a clue how to deal with the present situation with their calls for LNG to be banned, then you only have to read back through your own posts, where exactly the same as I mentioned, when asked all you came back with were rants, accusations etc.

And yet bizarrely still no backup or proof to the claim you made "decent sized farmers" and 3 phase electricity"

My dear broken, the only issue is plain to see in your own comments and an abject failure to back them up with.

Yeah keep digging that hole, it will be big enough to bury you soon without doubt ;)

Climate brainwashing added to the school curriculum, the new religion.

Battery storage another example of the greens nimby rubbish. The generation of these batteries are causing serious issues all over the world, lithium mining from salt brines contaminating water tables all over south america, congo and cobalt birth defects, china mining the **** of out of the place as it holds about 70 percent of the worlds graphite and all this is going to grow exponentially as the demand grows. we all know how environemntally consious the mining industry are world over but sure not to worry once the first world countries can feel good about themselves and saving the earth when lets face it your just destroying somewhere else. same as the lpg, nuclear, - greens policies is basically see no evil hear no evil, once its not on our doorstep.
