Hello, everyone. Dr. Chris Martinson back here with you with a scouting report. Today is November 30th, I guess, somewhere around the end of November. So a couple things I want to talk to you about. And wow, things are really beginning to heat up out there in the world, obviously. So I was really impressed with and loved having Professor Simon Mischot on the program recently on the off the cuff.

If you haven't seen that, you should check it out because he talks about the green energy myth and just, well, just how the numbers don't even remotely add up between the narrative.

We're telling ourselves, oh,

we're going to just transition off fossil fuels.

The IEA, the International Energy Agency, just sort of says, oh, look, and they show these charts and carbon from fossil fuels goes to zero by 2050.

It's like, okay.

But what does that mean?

Like an adult-sized conversation would say, what will that take? How much money? How much time? How many resources, like mineral resources and metals? These would be good questions to ask, of course, because so much depends on it, as in everything. Because, of course, course as you know energy is the master resource it's

everything if you have energy lots of other things are possible without energy really nothing is

possible so we should get the story right but instead we're not being treated to adult

ice conversations here in the united states our own own energy secretary, Jennifer Granholm, probably couldn't wire up a battery circuit.

She doesn't understand energy on any level. Couldn't understand the difference and articulate

the difference between power and energy. And probably would confuse a sink and a source. So hydrogen, oh, we'll just convert to hydrogen.

No, that's a battery. It's not a source of energy. It's a storage unit of energy. So at any

right, what do you do? Well, he ran through the numbers really quickly. So I want to talk about that

today.

I'm going to call up the Great Squandering.

Let's look at this.

So this is a paper that he's got that he mentioned on the program is just about to get.

It's finally made it through peer review.

It's amazing how many people wouldn't touch the paper, even though it's just loaded with data with references and is absolutely pretty solid,

at least from my perspective, at least somebody ought to review it and say,

...
