Voting is open, so presumably, is cheating, which will win? Betting markets are predicting a Red Wave, but the richest nation in the world can’t afford to use paper ballots, check ID, and can’t count the votes on election night anymore. 2022 Midterms Forecast Don’t forget, Trump looked like it had it in the bag on the night: Darren Beattie, Revolver Bookies gave Trump roughly 75% odds of a second term, and on PredictIt Trump’s odds of victory peaked at above eighty percent. In a never-before-seen development in American politics, counting in key states went on for days on end. Over the course of those extra days, Trump’s leads in Georgia, Michigan, and Pennsylvania shrank and then vanished. Legal efforts to block what was unfolding and contest certain questionable ballots went nowhere, and on January 20, it was Joe Biden who took the oath of office. A well funded cabal of shadowy forces “fortified” the 2020 election results, we know this, because they told us so. The election win was no accident, they bragged. As they said in Time Magazine, corporations worked with one side of government behind the scenes to influence […] November 9th, 2022 | Tags: Election (corruption), Elections, US Legal, US Politics | Category: Big-Government, Corruption, Election security, Politics, USA |  Print This Post | | by Jo Nova For years they told us that the green transition would deliver cheap energy, and that if we just subsidized them enough, prices would keep falling. The promise of free energy on the horizon led whole nations (stupidly) to believe that closing coal plants was viable. But now that damage is done, suddenly the Vestas chief admits that telling people that wind can only get cheaper “was a mistake”. “Vestas CEO says industry went too far with cheap-energy pledge” Vestas Wind Turbine There is carnage in Europe. Orders and profits are collapsing. The largest wind turbine manufacturer in the world has already raised prices by more than 30% this year but despite that, expects its profit margins to shrink to “minus five percent”. Lucky their orders are down since they are losing money on every turbine. The fall in sales landed as inflation bites, supply lines are squeezed and their costs are rising. (After all, wind turbine factories can’t run off wind turbines, they’re paying for expensive electricity too). So suddenly Vestas need to raise their prices even more, and their CEO is hoping a belated apology will somehow bring their market back.

Chieftain Al will stop the storms if only everyone will do as he says and invest in his climate asset fund. For he cometh armed with windmills that stop rain-bombs and solar panels that hold back the sea. Like medieval Occult leaders, superstitious rain dancers, and healers with magical cures, the modern witchdoctors have satellites and simulations, but run on the same old formula since time began. Fear, smear, demons, and magic. All prophesies are ambiguous. Nothing he sayth can be falsified. Coal, apparently, is not just a source of emissions, but a veritable “culture of death.” Despite the era of coal being a time of record crop yields, bountiful food, travel, and exponential world population growth. Despite the working class of today being richer than the kings of centuries past. One day, he promises, after he is safely dead, all weather will be good weather, and only the perfect amount of rain will fall, and ski seasons will start and end on the same day each year. Trust me, he says. Damian Carrington, at The Guardian, […] .. 8.9 out of 10 based on 9 ratings … 8.9 out of 10 based on 11 ratings More deadly than man-made climate change Six people have died in New York this year so far due to house fires started by e-bikes. I had no idea. Fires from exploding e-bike batteries multiply in NYC — sometimes fatally Matthew Schuerman, NPR NEW YORK — Four times a week on average, an e-bike or e-scooter battery catches fire in New York City. These bikes when they fail, they fail like a blowtorch,” said Dan Flynn, the chief fire marshal at the New York Fire Department. “We’ve seen incidents where people have described them as explosive — incidents where they actually have so much power, they’re actually blowing walls down in between rooms and apartments.” As of Friday, the FDNY investigated 174 battery fires, putting 2022 on track to double the number of fires that occurred last year (104) and quadruple the number from 2020 (44). So far this year, six people have died in e-bike-related fires and 93 people were injured, up from four deaths and 79 injuries last year. In early August, a 27-year-old Venezuelan immigrant, identified as Rafael Elias Lopez-Centeno, died after his lithium ion battery caught fire […] November 6th, 2022 | Tags: Battery, Electric Cars (EV) | Category: Global Warming | Print This Post | | … 8.5 out of 10 based on 8 ratings By Jo Nova Well that was lucky. Early reports suggest the Chinese space junk from the launch four days ago has crashed in the Pacific 1,000 km short of Mexico. However, if I am reading those maps (below) correctly, on this uncontrolled reentry it only missed Australia and New Zealand by half an hour, and just a few minutes later and it would have “landed” somewhere in Mexico or maybe Florida. (Now that would have been a November surprise). Despite what China says, this is not what the rest of the world does: China Lucks Out Again as Out-of-Control Rocket Booster Falls in the Pacific Kenneth Chang, New York Times It was China’s latest round of celestial roulette involving a deliberate uncontrolled atmospheric re-entry. The rocket stage, by design, did not include a system to guide it into a specific spot on Earth, far away from people. “The thing I want to point out about this is that we, the world, don’t deliberately launch things this big intending them to fall wherever,” Ted Muelhaupt, a consultant for the Aerospace Corporation, a nonprofit group largely financed by the U.S. government that […] November 5th, 2022 | Tags: China, Space | Category: Astronomy, Big-Government, China | Print This Post | | By Jo Nova Lo behold, I give you the sign of doom. Bioluminescent jellyfish have traveled from the Pacific to the UK to warn of climate change. We know this because citizen scientists have been tracking jellyfish for at least 20 years of the Holocene, if not the other 12,000 years, and they noticed things have not stayed exactly the same. We don’t understand the underlying ocean gyrations, currents, jellyfish biology, or long term cycles of anything, but the team collected 1,315 sightings in the last year, which is a big number. Lordy, in waters surrounding 66 million people, it amounts to them counting three or four jellyfish a day. Based on this we’d like your wallet, your pension fund, and the deeds to the houses your children haven’t bought yet. Climate crisis brings growing numbers of unusual jellyfish to UK seas Helena Horton, The Guardian Britain’s seas are becoming populated with large groups of unusual jellyfish owing to climate breakdown… Between 1 October 2021 and 30 September 2022, there were a total of 1,315 jellyfish sightings reported to the MCS. Eight jellyfish species are normally seen around […] November 4th, 2022 | Tags: Cult science, Junk Science, Propaganda | Category: Global Warming, Junk Science | Print This Post | | … 9 out of 10 based on 8 ratings by Jo Nova With all the calm language of a paid ad agency, the ABC is breathless because an esoteric measure called “minimum operational demand” has hit a record or two. This glorious moment may have only lasted 30 minutes, and it isn’t actually a useful thing, but it’s a “record”. In fact, “minimum operational demand” is a grid management headache, not a badge of honor. It’s the midday moment when solar panels all work — and it’s becoming such a problem that two states in Australia have said all new solar panels need “smart” controllers so that the guys in the central control rooms can turn the darn things off. That’s how good it is. Renewable energy records tumble around the country as rooftop solar power soars by ABC Energy Propaganda Reporter, Daniel Mercer Soaring power production from households and businesses with rooftop solar panels has sent records tumbling across Australia as output from fossil fuels falls to all-time lows. The record so-called minimum operational demand excludes the power generated by consumers with their own solar panels, which met 92 per cent of South Australia’s overall needs at one point on October 17.

It is now building 60% of all the new coal plants in the world while the West does a kind of Tantric Energy Yoga — trying to run smelters with solar panels. China’s emissions of CO2 exceed all developed nations combined, yet President Xi is not even attending COP27, and almost no one cares. This is the luminous elephant floating in the kitchen at COP27: If CO2 mattered, they would care. But the point of COP27 was never about the climate. … China absurdly mocks the moral carbon-beauty-contest of the west, while applauding us, and playing by its own rules From the sidelines, the CCP berates and eggs on the West saying that “empty slogans are not ambition” and calling for the “UN climate summit to address the concerns of developing nations.” Li Gao, director of the Ministry of Ecology and Environment’s climate change department… urged developed nations to meet their commitments on the US$100 billion […] Giles, Weather balloon By Jo Nova Things are far far worse at the Australian Bureau of Meteorology than even we realized. “If you think your public forecasts have gotten worse, that’s because they have,” one meteorologist says. While Australia is flooding and lives depend on forecasts, the management of our weather bureau is cutting back on meteorologists and on weather balloons, but they’re making sure they do frivolous exercises in rebranding with a new kindergarten logo and calls to be “The Bureau”, and not the BoM. It’s hard to believe, but instead of releasing two weather balloons from each site every day like the rest of the modern world, the BoM has decided to cuts costs and reduce many regional sites to just one or even none each day. This is in breach of the World Meteorological Organisation (WMO) standards. Weather balloons are the prize “unrivaled” meteorological instrument. In roughly 900 places all over the world, weather balloons are launched twice a day, every day of the year. These radio back temperature, humidity and wind and pressure data as they rise up as high as 30 kilometers (20 miles) into the atmosphere. The degradation of […] November 1st, 2022 | Tags: BOM, Hot Spot, Missing Hot Spot | Category: Australia, Global Warming | Print This Post | | |
