These "green" and "renewable" wind turbine blades have outlived their 20-year lifespan and can't be recycled, so they've
come to die at this wind turbine graveyard in Texas, USA.

You should expect a LOT more of this as a consequence of the aggressive push towards Net Zero.

Energy is energy - some forms pay back nicely, others end up in Wyoming
landfills, right dipshit?

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2020-02-05/wind-turbine-blades-can-t-be-recycled-so-they-re-piling-up-in-landfills

Companies are searching for ways to deal with the tens of thousands of
blades that have reached the end of their lives.

https://cowboystatedaily.com/2019/08/07/wind-turbine-blades-being-disposed-of-in-casper-landfill/

Each turbine blade will need between 30 and 44.8 cubic yards of landfill
space, using a total of 448,000 cubic yards of the 2.6 million yards set
aside for construction and demolition material. The components are made
of a fiberglass material that is one of the most inert, non-toxic
materials accepted at CRL, Langston said.

https://www.wyomingnewsnow.tv/2020/09/24/an-update-on-caspers-landfill-wind-turbine-project/

According to city documents, the Casper Regional Landfill has received
1,124 turbine blades from across Wyoming.

So they end up here:

https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/wind-turbine-blades-landfills/

The “wind turbine graveyard” in Casper, Wyoming, is home to more than
1,100 wind turbine blades that have been disposed of and buried in a
local landfill since 2019.

You know, the ones so flimsy that
even Trump wants them banned........
A single barrel of oil is like 5.8 million BTUs. So how many
barrels do you think an offshore rig produces in a day?

Multiply that by 5.8 million. Then multiply it by 365 days.

Your problem is one of scale.

There is nothing wrong with that and most people encourage it.
What *IS* wrong is waging a war on the energy sources we currently depend upon without viable
replacements.
And that is precisely what Joe Biden and the radical left have done.
In effect they put the cart before the horse.

There's about 50y of gasoline left at current levels of usage.
But it turns out because the excellent planning a lot of things will
be running out around the same time.
The kids are going to be sooo lucky.

At current levels of usage nuclear could run for another 250 y before
the fissiles run out. If you use breeder reactors then you can take
that out to 500 y.

But current levels of usage only amount to around 10% of energy needs.

You see where we're going, right?

If nuclear has to take 100% of the electricity load then there is only
50 years left and even that will require the world to tolerate every
tom dick and harry making and/or handling e.g. plutonium that can be
turned into triggers or dirty boms.

It may seem counter-intuitive, but China is the global renewable energy leader hosting

"Costa Rica uses a combination of hydro, geothermal, wind, biomass and solar power to get

"As of 2016, 98% of electricity generation in Norway came from renewables, with hydropower
leading the charge. They’ve been harnessing power from rivers and waterfalls since the
late 1800s, " - no nukes here either

"84% of New Zealand’s electricity usage

"decades of transformation have resulted

electricity from renewable sources"

<https://www.climatecouncil.org.au/11-countries-leading-the-charge-on-renewable-energy/>

Nothing nuclear in Sweden

How did they do it? By taking advantage of their natural resources and using a combination
of wind, bioenergy, solar and even body heat! In Stockholm for example, body heat from
commuters passing through the central station is used to heat a nearby building!

the energy supply.

It's less the scarcity than the cost of getting it to market. Seems all those pro oil
guys back in the seventies were right, there's plenty of oil. But they didn't tell us it
was going to be so expensive to get to our gas tanks.

The Weddell Sea is estimated to contain more oil than Saudi Arabia and Russia together
have ever had.

of fuel on private aviation.

They can't stop heating the outdoors. And even air conditioning the
outdoors!

And I'm not even talking about their swimming pools, though we might
have to take a moment to address them...

Start with banning private aviation. Gone. No compensation. Sorry,
nobody deserves to be compensated for their loss as a dickhead.

Then start rationing.

No, not taxing. Rationing. Real rationing where the Elon Musks of
the world get not one drop more than as "little people."

Sure, he's rich. He can buy our leftovers, whatever we don't use.
But only if we consent to sell it.

Let the self imposed elite create some kind of bank or exchange
where us little people can cash in the unused part of our rations,
and Elon Musk can buy them.

Or we can save them up, fly to Hawaii or London... Rome...

Several people have noted that same thing. Oil is so useful for so many things, but we
mostly just burn it for energy. It's 20th century firewood. I had hoped by now the 21st
century would have yielded a large, safe and cheap alternative but it looks like
diversification is the way.

Why do you think there are MILLIONS
of abandoned oil wells across the US?


"A recent investigation by Reuters estimates
that the United States could have more than
3.2 million orphaned and abandoned wells. Some
states have a few hundred; others have a few
thousand. And some have a staggering number of
them: Pennsylvania reportedly has more than
330,000 of these wells within its borders."

These "green" and "renewable" wind turbine blades have outlived their 20-year lifespan and can't be recycled, so they've
come to die at this wind turbine graveyard in Texas, USA.
You should expect a LOT more of this as a consequence of the aggressive push towards Net Zero.

'Cappadona, the CEO of the Environmental Solutions and Services division

that he wasn’t much more optimistic when he later received a big can
filled with pieces of a chopped-up blade. Turning the used blades into

says, referring to the challenging 3D puzzle. But the company quickly
