I believe this video is worth your time to watch and understand. Jordan and Robert dissect the alt energy virtue signaling machine and lay out the reality of our situation as sociopaths force us away from hydrocarbon energy.
Here are two important, foundational truths for us today from their discussion:
Expensive energy is the enemy of the poor.
Electricity is the key to a better life everywhere for everyone!
There are many more golden nuggets throughout the video, so please watch.
In closing, Jordan gives the rising generation a choice:
A world of abundance and reliable energy
The Demented Pseudo Moral Route that breaks everything while making the planet worse.
Number 1 relies on hydrocarbon energy progressing to nuclear power. Number two is the fetish of alt energy and net zero. Let’s choose number 1, instead of pretend virtue signalling number 2 that makes everything worse.
(Small nit: Robert believes that climate change is real or at least maybe real, meaning that humans are causing climate change. I disagree, but I endorse everything he and Jordan say about what our energy policy should be and how we should help the 3.5 billion humans who do not currently have electricity. This post explains that the increasing CO2 since the advent of the industrial revolution is NOT dominated by human hydrocarbon burning and thus cannot be the cause of climate change.)
