Nationwide blackout a heartbeat away

 coal-fired plants are now being appreciated for what they are: truly meaningful power generation sources, available on demand, whatever the weather

millions of solar panels are blanketed in snow and ice and breathless, freezing weather is encouraging its 30,000 wind turbines to do absolutely nothing, at all. [Note to Ed: don’t forget about the constant supply of electricity from the grid that these things chew up heating their internal workings so they don’t freeze up solid!]

 Global warming hits the Fatherland.  

 Germany’s held up as the world’s wind and solar capital. But, at the moment, the ‘green’ stuff can’t be purchased, at any price.

a Nationwide blackout a heartbeat away, the German obsession with unreliable wind and solar is like a time bomb set to explode

All for the want of a lump of coal!

"we have fallen short"

I’ll be very clear we have fallen short in that regard - undertaking work like this is not acceptable to me  ... 

For that reason, I apologise on behalf of Air NZ that this has occurred

Another failing business succumbs to cancel culture.  A bunch of pussies trying hard to be woke!

I'll never support any company with my business that fails to stand up to the disease of cancel culture.  

the Saudi contract had been in operation since the 1980s

This particular hit job is nothing but a distraction from the criminal failings of the current government.
