The Energy Transition Is a Delusion Indeed
The "energy transition" continues to receive thunderous applause from all the usual Beltway suspects, an exercise in groupthink fantasy amazing to behold. For those with actual lives to live and thus uninterested in silliness: The "energy transition" is a massive shift, wholly artificial and politicized, from conventional energy inexpensive (Table...
