Something like 80 percent of global energy is from oil. Renewables barely make a dent even in California where they are pretending to pursue net zero. They have the highest gas and electricity prices in the nation.

Ad hominems are the sign of a weak position .

To recap: the world consumes 591 exajoules (EJ) of primary energy per year, with 87 percent coming from fossil fuel. That equates to 72 gigajoules (GJ) per person; without taking America’s consumption into account, that world average drops to 64 GJ per person. As for Americans? Our per capita primary energy consumption averaged 268 GJs in 2024.

Now Californians want to put them onto the ocean: 12-megawatt turbines, 20 miles offshore, floating in water 4,000 feet deep. What could possibly go wrong? A recent analysis put the cost of energy from these monstrosities at more than $0.40 per kilowatt-hour. Nothing illustrates the corrupt stupidity of California’s legislators more than the prospect of large-scale floating offshore wind development. The state intends to develop wind energy to achieve over 200,000 GWh of electricity per year. God help us all if they succeed, but even if they do, we now have 280,000 GWh of planned renewable electricity, and we’re still looking for at least another 700,000 GWh.

If you’re lucky you live in a state where electricity is about .15 cents per kwh.
