Climate Change Mitigating Power Options Are Murderous
Climate Change Mitigating Power Options Are Murderous
Tim O’Connor – Center for the Preservation of Humanity – 12/27/2022
There was a big storm in the US that lasted for about four to five days for most of us. The polar vortex decided to come visit the United States and Canada for about a week, conveniently right before Christmas. It featured snow, rain, ice, wind, and stupid cold temperatures. In the four days it persisted in Sioux Falls, the wind chills didn’t really rise above -30 degrees for several days and on the first night stayed at around -50. Temperatures themselves hovered in the negative teens for a few days. Thankfully, the power didn’t go out here and there were no blackouts initiated. That wasn’t the case everywhere however.
As of December 26, 2022 at 7:07pm only Washington state and New York state had reports of more than 10,000 without power according to PowerOutage.us. Yahoo!News reported that on December 24, there were 1.7 million people without power. But that isn’t really the curious part of the story of the polar vortex. The curious part came when Yahoo!News reported:
“In Tennessee and North Carolina, utility companies initiated controlled, temporary outages in efforts to save energy. Customers of Memphis, Light, Gas and Water and Duke Energy, for example, were impacted by these rolling blackouts Saturday morning.
“Both companies confirmed that they were ending the temporary outages by mid-day Saturday. But similar action could still be taken in the future.
“"The weather is still frigid and power demand may fluctuate. We are asking customers to be prepared in the event (the Tennessee Valley Authority) implements rolling blackouts. We could be required to do so at any time without notice. We are currently restoring power to all customers who are interrupted," Memphis, Light, Gas and Water CEO Doug McGowen said in a statement issued at 11 a.m. CT.
“Pennsylvania-based PJM Interconnection said that, due to the severe weather, power plants were having difficulty operating – asking residents in 13 states to refrain from unnecessary use of electricity. The major electricity grid operator also warned the 65 million people it serves across the eastern U.S. that future rolling blackouts might be required.”
That is third-world status decrees coming to the United States. We don’t pay to have initiated power blackouts occur – we pay these government-approved energy monopolies to keep our power on. But they cannot do that because they have decided to stop creating adequate energy.
The Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) was created under the New Deal Marxism the treasonous Franklin Delano Roosevelt loved so dearly. Now the Marxists running the TVA are threatening 10 million people with blackouts when it is, literally, freezing outside. The TVA is fully invested in fulfilling the Sustainable Development Goals set by the UN, engaging in stakeholder capitalism, and using ESG as their model for proper accounting. None of that portends a future where customers have power to their homes and businesses. The TVA went from 58% coal in 2007 to 17% coal in 2019 while increasing energy production from gas by 18%, hydro by 4%, wind and solar by 3%, energy efficiency by 1%, and nuclear by 15% over the same time periods. By 2028, the TVA projected in 2019 that nuclear would grow by 2%, wind and solar by 2%, gas would fall by 4%, and hydro, coal, and energy efficiency would remain unchanged. Their reasons for doing this are the 60 million tons of carbon dioxide they didn’t produce.
PJM (Pennsylvania New Jersey Maryland Interconnection LLC) is supposed to supply electricity to “all or parts of Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, New Jersey, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia and the District of Columbia.” PJM serves somewhere around 65 million people. Yet here they are promising that blackout will be introduced to their customers. Like the TVA, PJM is whole invested in destroying humanity through UN-approved initiatives like ESG and sustainability goals. In July 2020, the FERC (Federal Energy Regulatory Commission) demanded that PMJ catch up to the ‘progress’ their monopolized peers have made in sustainable power generation. In 2019 PJM was using an energy mix of 26% natural gas, 4% oil, 15% gas/other secondary, 5% water (hydro), 2% other, 30% coal, and 18% nuclear. In 2021 natural gas was 27%, other was 3%, and coal had gone down to 28% while everything else remained the same.
The Sierra Club, one of the most evil institutions on earth, came out demanding that PJM end up in exactly the situation it is in. They reveled in the FERC assessment of PJM and then demanded that any excess capacity be taken out of PJM’s energy mix. They claimed it would save people money on their energy bills. Of course, having to threaten rolling blackouts because of not having the capacity to meet demands is even worse, especially when going outside for 30 minutes may be a death sentence. Failing to understand this, Sierra Club’s demands from 2020 read:
“Everyone wants reliable access to electricity, but consumers are already paying for plenty of it with PJM’s target 16 percent reserve margin. An extra 18,000 MW benefits no one except aging coal and new gas plants. By getting the load forecast right and setting the demand curve based on actual costs of new entry rather than exaggerated ones, PJM would send the right signal for capacity investment in the region. And people could sleep better knowing they’d be saving a lot of money.”
And it’s not saving anyone any money. On average, PJM was charging just under $20 a MWh in the first six months of 2020. In 2021, the rate was at $30.62 per MWh and in 2022 the same six month average was at $67.77 per MWh. The above cited article also states the causes for this. “PJM market interventions have "substantial effects" on energy market outcomes, the report said, adding that transmission line ratings, transmission penalty factors, load forecast bias, hydro resource schedules, and unit ramp rate adjustments "change the dispatch of the system, affect prices, and can create significant price increases through transmission line limit violations or restrictions on the resources available to resolve constraints."”
Blackouts initiated by PJM are not some one-off unforeseeable event. It was baked into their efforts. The TVA also surely foresaw that any type of major weather event would also result in offering consumers no electricity services like rolling brownouts and blackouts. The TVA and PJM are not supposed to be worrying about carbon, they are supposed to be worrying about making sure our electricity stays on.
This is all just part of the ‘new normal’ proscribed by the needs of the murderers conducting the Great Reset. One of the main justifications of the Great Reset is the man-made climate change hoax which way too many people have bought into. Newsweek, like the TVA, PJM, and FERC, have absolutely bought into the hoax. Unlike the US government and power suppliers; however, Newsweek’s mission in this arm of the depopulation and wealth expropriation campaign is designed to propagandize the US public. Newsweek and many other ‘media’ outlets do not fail in this respect. And all of them share one common goal – they want us broke, dependent, or dead – that’s not bombastic nor hyperbole on my part, they really do.
Unsurprisingly, Newsweek published “Climate Change Could Be Driving Bomb Cyclones and Unstable Polar Vortex” on December 21. Winter seems to not want to follow along with the idea of climate change according to the article. The colder winters need events to make up the temperature differences between the rest of the year. So there is this bomb cyclone that Newsweek decided to predict and tried to link directly to climate change. But even these propaganda boosters couldn’t quite pull it off. They were forced to note:
“It is still uncertain whether this vortex destabilization is a direct consequence of climate change, but it has been recorded a lot more frequently over the last few decades, in correlation with rising global temperatures. The Arctic has also warmed nearly four times faster than the rest of the world over the last 40 years, and the impacts of this warming are having global consequences.”
I have objections to all of that. First of all weather manipulation and weaponization has been occurring far more frequently over the last few decades – maybe that has something to do with it. A great deal of that manipulation, including HAARP technologies, stratospheric aerosolized injections, and solar radiation management techniques is able to actually be used as a weapon. It’s not coincidental to me that all of the reports which I have heard before this Newsweek piece placed the air mass as having been over Siberia about two weeks ago – Newsweek failed to mention that.
I also have issues with the way that temperature measurements are taken. Theses climate-death-cultists seem to really enjoy moving their instruments around say, from a grassy area to the middle of a blacktopped parking lot or in the close vicinity to a grill in use. If the impact is warming then it shouldn’t be so damned cold. Period. These ‘experts’ can try to explain it away any way they want but at the end of the day they are full of it.
One of these so-called experts goes by the name of Jason Furtado, professor of meteorology at th University of Oklahoma who Newsweek quoted as saying, “"The best way to stay safe is to prepare now and look for updates from your local meteorologists and National Weather Service personnel," Furtado said. "Avoid unnecessary travel and, with the severe cold, be sure to bundle up and stay warm."” Really Furtado? Is that the way it works? Bundle up and stay home. Listen to the experts.
The expert we should be listening to is Dane Wigington. Dane has studied the phenomenon of geoengineering for decades. I suggest you visit his site because it contains a treasure trove of actual information about what is really occurring in regards to climate. On December 17, 2022 his website published document #384 which reads:
“Holiday weather, anyone? Geoengineered winter at its finest.
“A geoengineered record deep freeze is scheduled to hammer the Eastern US, just in time for the holidays. Increasing warmth and drought through the first of the year is what the weather makers have planned for the US West.
“The airline industry has finally acknowledged that "contrails" are a major environmental problem, but the deeper truth on this issue continues to be denied and omitted. NATO has just held it's first round table on "climate change and security", was climate engineering the primary discussion behind closed doors? Are they preparing for climate collapse? Is that a part of the plan? The latest installment of Global Alert News is below.”
December 24, 2022 brought forth another alert from geoengineeringwatch.org, #385, about the man-made winter storm the climate-death-cultists named ‘Elliot.’
“"Gov. warns people to get where they need to be before potential flash freeze". Does this sound like headline straight out of "The Day After Tomorrow" movie? Temperatures in some regions crashed by as much as 75 degrees in only hours. What does it take to wake the sleeping masses? How bad does it have to get before more of the population opens their eyes and realizes something is very wrong with our skies and our weather? "Winter Storm Elliot" is the latest chemical ice nucleation cloud seeding creation from the weather makers. Geoengineering operations are wreaking havoc around the world, how long do we have before the climate system completely collapses bringing civilization with it? The latest installment of Global Alert News is below.”
Is it ‘The Day After Tomorrow’? It’s a good question that you will not hear asked by Newsweek or any of the rest of the propaganda outlets masquerading as news media. The propagandists want a passive population to decide to walk to their deaths on their own. The propaganda they spew out is based upon complete fabrication with the weaponized intent to convince as many as can be convinced that the ‘experts’ have everything under control. When these ‘experts’ decide it is time to demand we walk off the cliff billions will start marching without question.
These experts are also issuing recommendations which are starting to hit home, literally. Is your power bill unaffordable all of a sudden? Oh, they have the solution for that too. Because of their war on climate they have recommended that during the winter thermostats be set at 68 degrees. But that’s not all, there’s more! For 8 hours of the day, we are all supposed to set our thermostats to between 61 to 58 degrees. During the summer we are supposed to set our thermostats to 78 degrees and to again, for 8 hours a day, set it at between 85 and 88 degrees. If that doesn’t work then try sleeping with the thermostat at 82 degrees and set it to 85 degrees when not at home. This is all according to CNET who published this garbage on November 16, 2022.
Guess what happens when the rolling blackouts come around? People die. I’ve tried to sleep in 85 degree rooms and it’s just too hot. Sweating and sleeping don’t mix. I’ve slept in unheated rooms in the wintertime, sleeping under four or five quilts is not something I enjoy either. Have you ever tried sitting in a 100 degree house when the power goes out? How many blankets or layers of clothes will we need to be wearing when our heat gets turned off and it’s -13 degrees outside and the 40 mile an hour wind drives that air straight through every nook and cranny of the residence?
The TVA and PJM used this storm to push forward even earlier promises of rolling blackouts. In June the Washington Post was promising rolling blackouts during the summer. They pointed out that the ‘flyover’ parts of the United States were going to be targeted for the summer round of rolling blackouts. They wrote:
“New Mexico’s attorney general is preparing for “worst case scenarios” after a regional utility warned of possible blackouts. North Dakota regulators advised the state to be ready for rolling outages, Arkansas officials are preparing emergency energy conservation measures, and power companies in Arizona are already sounding alarms about next year.
“While America’s power grid has been showing signs of distress for years, the sudden warnings have surprised even those who were sounding an alarm. That’s because extreme weather precipitated by climate change and the early retirement of fossil fuel plants has accelerated the destabilization of the grid — a fragile collection of transfer stations and transmission lines already challenged by a lack of investment.”
Oh, gee, you don’t say? It was preventable? Well golly gee guys, who’d have thunk that destroying the capacity to produce electricity with no replacement would or could possibly disrupt electrical service? Not the ‘experts’ who are supposed to be making sure that we have electrical power apparently. They are monstrous liars the whole lot of them. And WaPo basically wrote this article to make sure the blame wouldn’t be placed where it belongs – on the ‘experts’ who didn’t see any of this coming.
The Argus Leader (if you have not been introduced to this ‘paper’ I assure you it’s best use is wrapping paper) wrote on June 10, 2022, “It's possible Sioux Falls could see rolling blackouts this summer as warmer than normal temperatures across the Midwest increase the demand for electricity — but local power companies say they're hoping it doesn't come to that.”
All the way back on May 18, 2022, News Nation Now published an article suggesting that just about everywhere west of the Mississippi River and some spots to the east of it as well was at elevated or high risk of experiencing rolling blackouts during the summer. “Blackouts could plague a number of states in the U.S. this summer, regulators warn, as a combination of drought, heat, potential cyber attacks, geopolitical conflicts and supply chain problems could disrupt the power supply, according to a grim new report from the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC).”
NERC stands for North American Electric Reliability Corporation. In their 2022/2023 Winter Reliability Assessment, on page 4, NERC identified issues which may cause electrical grid problems this winter. Midcontinent ISO (MISO; servicing 42 million people) was noted as, “Since the 2021/2022 winter, reserve margins in MISO have fallen by over 5%. Nuclear and coal-fired generation retirements total over 4.2 GW since the prior winter. Declining reserves are the result of few resource additions. An extreme cold-weather event that extends deep into MISO’s area could lead to high generator outages from inadequate weatherization in southern units and unavailability of fuel for natural-gas-fired generators.”
Thankfully the cold didn’t cause this, at least not for MISO, not yet anyway. But what is interesting is that the reserve capacity is less than it was and there will be problems which will arise from that change. It was only reliable power which MISO phased out – coal and nuclear – and was never replaced. MISO should probably be sued out of existence for doing this. Of course, they will merely claim they didn’t know any better and will face no repercussions for their negligence. Climate dictated they stop making carbon, they will claim. Any judge or jury will be instructed to believe in climate change and the asinine and murderous mitigation efforts underway. There can be no justice if there is no accountability.
No one is even pretending to hold the geo-engineers designing these storms accountable. No one is holding the power companies accountable. Instead, Joe Biden in his infinite stupidity, declared the first climate emergency due to Elliot’s impact on New York. The White House statement reads:
“The President’s action authorizes the Department of Homeland Security, Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), to coordinate all disaster relief efforts which have the purpose of alleviating the hardship and suffering caused by the emergency on the local population, and to provide appropriate assistance for required emergency measures, authorized under Title V of the Stafford Act, to save lives and to protect property and public health and safety, and to lessen or avert the threat of a catastrophe in the counties of Erie and Genesee.
“Specifically, FEMA is authorized to identify, mobilize, and provide at its discretion, equipment and resources necessary to alleviate the impacts of the emergency. Emergency protective measures (Category B), including direct Federal assistance, under the Public Assistance program will be provided at 75 percent Federal funding.”
They are under martial law because that what FEMA does, places people under martial law. FEMA exists for one purpose and one purpose only – continuity of government. In the event that enough of the United States comes under emergency status, FEMA is to take over the functions of government and have no mandate, sunset, nor reason to even need to cede that power back to the Constitutional United States. Don’t believe me? Go look it up. Erie and Genesee Counties in New York are under martial law.
Additionally, one of the causes for the emergency declaration is the loss of life in the two counties. These people just are not following the ‘experts’ decrees in the area. So they need to be put under martial law. According to The Insider from yesterday afternoon:
“At least 27 people have died in the city as of 4 p.m. on Dec. 26, said Erie County executive Mark Poloncarz, in what Gov. Kathy Hochul called the "blizzard of the century."
“In a post on Facebook, Poloncarz said 14 of those were found dead outside, another four people died from being trapped inside without heat, and 3 died because emergency services could not get to them. Three people died inside their car, and three died from cardiac events while shoveling, according to the post. [italics mine]”
Shutting off electricity kills people. Super hot and, even more so, super cold weather events kill people, especially if the electricity is turned off. The climate-death-cultists don’t mind this as that is their purpose – death and misery on unprecedented scales. And everyone ‘in charge’ is in on the implementation of the UN plans for Agenda 21/Agenda 2030/ SDGs and the WEF’s Great Reset. These plans guarantee death and misery on unprecedented scales.
We need a tax strike immediately. And we need, together, to decide to not pay for our power bill for a month and make sure these UN compliant utilities actually get their financial security from. It won’t work if only you and I do it, it will only work if 3%-10% of us do it. In lieu of that, we should consider filing lawsuits for the purposeful negligence these power suppliers have decided to engage in. Remember the hatred the United States government and the state governments showed to anyone claiming to be a sovereign citizen? This is why. Sovereign citizens won’t comply with this kind of nonsense. While you many not identify as a sovereign citizen, it doesn’t mean we need to sit here and take these attacks without making a sound. At least start calling these people up and demanding they take immediate action to make the power stay on, especially those of us in the areas affected by the rolling blackouts. At least find ways to generate power on an individual scale (solar, wind, or diesel generators or batteries, for example). If we aren’t willing to stand up and fight, get used to rolling blackouts because it is a feature of the ‘new normal.’
Bless God and God bless.
