Wind Energy is Like a Railroad With Missing Tracks

Imagine building a railway… with 3-mile gaps every 10 miles. Still cheap? Sure. Still useful? Not at all.
That’s wind power without a reliable backup.

This thread unpacks four eye-opening clips from Professor Ross McKitrick, an economist at the University of Guelph. 🧵👇

McKitrick has spent decades researching climate policy, energy economics, and environmental data.
His work cuts through the noise, and he doesn’t mind being unpopular for telling the truth. 2/4 Storage Systems Are a Fantasy

You need a way to store some of the excess electricity. Build a lake in the sky? Batteries the size of a country? No one can even conceive of it.

McKitrick on why energy storage is the fantasy holding up green dreams.

The storage systems aren’t there. They’re so expensive that fossil fuels are still the cheapest and most reliable.

Traffic Cameras: Slippery Slope towards a Society of Control and Surveillance

What began as speed enforcement has become a quiet transfer of control from human discretion to mechanical surveillance. 🧵 1/4

The UK’s 1947 Road Safety Commission warned that proper safety is built on mutual understanding, not fear. But today, speed cameras punish even minor, harmless infractions—5 mph over an empty night road is treated like recklessness near a school.

Automated enforcement ignores context. It makes a nervous, distracted driver—fixated on the speedometer—seem “safer” than a skilled one assessing real-time conditions.

The result is a culture of fear, not responsibility.
And once that fear is normalized, cameras are welcomed… and expanded.

Once surveillance tools are in place, they can be used far beyond their original purpose. We have seen this happen in several countries—cameras meant only for monitoring suddenly begin to issue speeding tickets or even driving bans.

The temptation to repurpose is built into the system.

🌍 CLIMATE ALARMISM EXPOSED
Dr. William Happer, a renowned physicist and emeritus professor at Princeton University, dismantles climate fearmongering in an exclusive interview with Freedom Research. “It’s dangerous to make policy on lies,” he warns.

A thread on CO₂, flawed models, and the politicised agenda behind climate alarmism.🧵

1/ CO₂ is NOT the enemy

“Carbon dioxide is the basis of life on Earth. Life would die without it.”

Levels have been much higher in the past, and life thrived. The demonization of CO₂ is a fabricated scare story.

@BjornLomborg @JamesMelville @EcoSenseNow @SunWeatherMan @ChrisMartzWX @AlexEpstein 2/ Most warming is natural

“The Earth is always warming or cooling. Most of today’s warming is likely a natural recovery from the Little Ice Age.”

So why are we being told CO₂ is to blame?

🔎Censorship in the EU: Hate Speech Laws Are Suffocating Free Speech

Europeans are increasingly afraid to speak their minds. Draconian “hate speech” laws, a tool of authoritarian regimes, have creept into EU policies. How bad is it? Let’s break it down. 🧵👇 1/15 2) Police raids on people's homes for posting a meme, criminal charges for hate speech and posting misinformation - no longer a dystopian film or a glimpse from China or Russia, but reality in several EU countries.

Especially in Germany, the EU's largest country, where the authorities have taken a particularly hard line on freedom of expression over the past decade. People are clearly afraid to speak their minds. (Credit: CBS News)

Dr. Aaron Kheriaty. Censorship, Covid Crisis and the Decline of Liberal Democracies. Thread🧵

1/4 Why Dr Kheriaty Was Fired - The Death of Informed Consent

For decades, informed consent was a core principle of medicine: No medical intervention without full disclosure of risks, benefits, and alternatives.

But with vaccine mandates, that principle vanished.

People were misled about risks. Those who refused were punished—losing jobs, education, and freedoms. A doctor who spoke out lost his career.

If human rights can be violated this easily in a crisis, what stops it from happening again?

@AaronKheriatyMD 2/4 The Government is Rewriting the Rules of Free Speech

Government officials flagged posts they didn’t like and pressured social media companies to take them down. When the posts didn’t violate platform policies, the government pushed to have those policies changed—forcing platforms to censor information millions of times.

This wasn’t just about false information. Even scientific studies and fact-based discussions were silenced. If the narrative was inconvenient, it disappeared.

This is more than social media moderation. It’s an assault on free expression on a global scale.

What happens when the government controls what you’re allowed to say?

Professor Ian Plimer says in an interview with Freedom Research that he has learned to be skeptical about everything as a scientist, and 'climate science' is no exception. Much of the climate debate is not even science but propaganda. 🧵

1/ History Debunks the Climate Crisis Narrative

History tells us climate crises are nothing new, but today's narrative ignores past lessons. Cooling, not warming, has caused famine, disease, and war. Yet, we’re told we’re in an “unprecedented crisis.” Are we being misled for control? Question the agenda

@curryja @MatthewWielicki @RogerPielkeJr @JennMarohasy @RossMcKitrick @Martin_Durkin @TomANelson @JamesMelville Actual scientist questions, revise, and challenge—even their work.

Science thrives on skepticism, not blind obedience. An actual scientist questions, revises, and challenges—even their work. Yet today’s climate narrative punishes dissent. Is this about science or control? Think critically!

Full presidential preemptive pardon for Anthony Fauci - what is it for and why does it go back to 2014?

Let's look at the possible motives and the main controversial and unproven policies that Fauci has endorsed over these years. 🧵. 1/15 2) Not many have noticed, but a major official investigation into the C19 crisis has recently been published. After 2 years of investigation, a US House of Representatives Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic has concluded that C19 measures have done more harm than good.
