- MikeFr 7y agoLet's use the word "populism" to denigrate opinions different than ours. It is not populism to force the public to fund the rich man's endevours, it is part of "saving the environment" The main fact I get from all of this, is that wind power introduces unstable parameters into the system and nobody denies that. You can not refute science. But hiking the prices up, destroying the environment, killing birds etc is not pupulism, is the new age life. I really want to know what was the global percentage of wind power generated in relation to other forms of generation. And let's make a study whether customers can afford their bills. And once your have your fact straight and can handle the truth, then go ahead and hit that flag button.

- mkesper 7y agoI'd like that to be true, but these people are very much influencing those that want their statements to be true (so they don't need change anything).
- imtringued 7y agoThat man just wants to see the world burn. The reality looks different. Maybe renewables will never reach 100% but 70% or 80% is still a worthwhile goal to strive for. Even if the remainder is powered purely by natural gas it still is a net benefit over coal.
