The good news out of the recent Climate Summit (COP27) is that there is NO verbiage in the agreement calling for the phasing out of fossil fuels.  

Is this a case of being more sensible and finally accepting that most of the world’s energy now comes from and will continue to come from fossil fuels? I suspect this is not the case.

In many ways, the ‘climate disaster’ ideology is partially being driven by the desire for the transfer of wealth.  Yes. It is the transfer of wealth from the USA into the pockets of other foreign political bureaucrats. In this country, that used to be called ‘kickbacks’. Will we ever know what is actually being bought with our freshly printed tax money?

How can these foreign governments sermonize to the world about helping less energy fortunate underdeveloped nations, when they do not even advocate for them to have access to the most convenient and affordable form of energy out there, fossil fuels.  

We are talking about billions of dollars of ‘hand outs’ to these foreign government officials.  Who honestly believes they can be trusted to build electrical grids and charging stations in these poorer cities and villages?

What is more likely is that whatever monies finally make it past the pockets of these foreign politicians will be used to mostly improve their own personal neighborhoods. There will be little to nothing left for the poor.  

Well, maybe a few token charging stations for appearance purposes along the way, but the communities themselves will not have direct access to electricity.  Most of these people cannot even afford cooking utensils, much less a $50,000 EV.  That is worse than donating a refrigerator with no food in it.

I’m all for creating drought resistant seeds, providing clean water, basic shelter, and cheap energy to the poorer countries, but most of these good works are already being provided by donations through vetted organizations, not through suspicious political mandates. Yes. A proposed 100 billion USD per year. Once again, I say that what this is really about is taking hard-earned money out of our pockets and lining theirs.  

And I am still curious about who is getting the 10%? Any guesses?

Just to recap, the USA will pay to run power lines and install charging stations in underdeveloped nations. Perhaps I just do not get it, but it would seem to me to be a better plan to get a little more developed before we worry about charging an EV in any deep African nation.

But, I am adventurous. Let us all have an African EV Safari. I will meet you there and we will cross the continent together (while Tau 2 is being drilled). You are driving.

What could go wrong? I hope we will not need to walk back. Pack accordingly.

Government money? Do you not just love it?

I just voted hoping for the 118th Congress to slowdown this agenda over the next two years, and to initiate and implement ‘energy independence’ strategies for the USA.
