Climate change is real.
Global warming caused by human CO2 emission, I doubt and is doubted very much.
If the Club of Rome are concerned with the earth and only come up with this CO2 hoax, while doing nothing against the pollution and dsetruction of land and sea, they were not a think tank but a fishbowl.
Solar and wind cost more energy in manufacturing than that they produce and for me are fake solutions on a global scale.
We have a lot of solar here (I think we have almost more solar panels here in Auroville than the rest of India together).
It is very expensive and you have to change a whole series of expensive batteries every 5-7 year. And still you have to calculate very much your consumption. A fridge seriously eats into your quota.
I think people like Tom Bearden need to get a serious chance a be added to the list:
7) We urgently need a Manhattan-type “energy from the vacuum” project to produce
and implement the new “asymmetric systems” energy paradigm area. We need it
massively and we need it now.
