I wish the leaders in the world would listen to these podcasts. Finally someone is speaking up about the nonsense Western Politicians and so called environmental groups (do more damage that good) are pushing on their people.
I found the episode about carbon tax intellectually dishonest at best or outright misleading. For example, the author states that fossil fuel use has increased since the year 2000 despite a push for renewables. Of course it has grown in absolute terms because economies have grown particularly in China plus there are more people in the world. Don’t conflate a bigger world economy with a perceived futility of deploying renewables. more
