@thetrocro Why don’t any of you people who talk shit to/about me read my (super-clear) arguments? All claims about “cheap” solar replacing fossil fuels to meet the world’s energy needs involve the “partial cost accounting” fallacy. Start with myth #2 and read on. https://t.co/kS4zPitbIc — PolitiTweet.org

"Country Faces an Overpopulation by 1975, with Farms Unable to Feed All, Experts Say" —@nytimes in 1952, fearing that US population would reach 190 million. Today we have 330 million people, and our major food-related problem is eating too much of it. #Catastrophizing https://t.co/eMGPx4GP5g — PolitiTweet.org

“Bill Maher… his most recent rant on the population explosion... he sees it as a horrifying harbinger of the future. Elon Musk, on the other hand, believes the biggest problem we're facing… is a population decline… one of these guys is wrong.” – @mikeroweworks https://t.co/OjQdURg2Cp — PolitiTweet.org

“one of the things I warn about… I call ‘unilateral disempowerment,’ which Europe is exhibiting right now, which means the freer countries decide, ‘Hey, we're going to restrict our emissions. We're going to lower our fossil fuel use.’” With @glennbeck https://t.co/rDbcO2j4kr — PolitiTweet.org

“The IRA pretends to be pro-nuclear by including nuclear under ‘clean energy’ subsidies. But since nuclear overregulation makes new plants cost-prohibitive, the IRA’s endless 'clean energy' subsidies are just an endless trough for solar/wind.” https://t.co/AWpVMELLBD — PolitiTweet.org

To be clear, I don't think I'm "equal" to most people who study climate for a living. I'm in a completely different, superior league, since I carefully weigh benefits and side-effects of fossil fuels while most professionals ignore the benefits and catastrophize the side-effects. — PolitiTweet.org

@PeterMcCormack @NateHawaii @saifedean Nate, was it a joke to write a multi-grammatical-error post calling me "nebulous"? If so, 🤣. "Rapid elimination of FFs" is not "nebulous." It's the mainstream proposal these days. We can certainly debate "net zero by 2050" if that satiates your (selective) desire for precision. https://t.co/FXoY8CGSNX — PolitiTweet.org

Bonus Myth: A FL community didn’t lose power because it’s 100% solar. Truth: The wealthy community isn’t 100% solar at all. It has a lot of solar arrays but gets grid power from the mostly-gas FL grid. It avoided blackouts due to high-$ measures like burying power lines. https://t.co/gVHkWqRS6Z — PolitiTweet.org

Myth 25: The next extreme weather event you hear about would have been much better if we had rapidly eliminated fossil fuels. Truth: You are far safer from that event thanks to fossil fuels. And you are also alive with your current life expectancy thanks to fossil fuels. — PolitiTweet.org

It is absolutely shameful that the political opponents of @GovRonDeSantis are trying to blame him for the tragedy of Hurricane Ian given that 1) the pro-freedom, pro-energy policies he supports *lessened* the tragedy and 2) his focus now is where it should be: hastening recovery. — PolitiTweet.org
Alex Epstein @AlexEpstein
Myth 24: When a major storm hits, politicians like @GovRonDeSantis should commit to anti-fossil-fuel policies. Truth: That would be pseudoscientific symbolism, and would make their constituents poorer and more vulnerable going forward. Like Europe, which is now afraid of winter. — PolitiTweet.org
Alex Epstein @AlexEpstein
Myth 23: Opposing the “Inflation Reduction Act” makes extreme weather worse. Truth: Not only do FFs make us safer than ever from extreme weather but the subsidy-laden IRA doesn’t make alternatives competitive—which is the only way to lower emissions. https://t.co/yBEUZqn7Us — PolitiTweet.org

Myth 22: Rapidly eliminating FFs will make us safer from climate disasters. Truth: FFs provide uniquely cost-effective energy in a world that needs far more energy. Rapidly eliminating FFs means far less energy, which means catastrophic climate impotence—and mass death. https://t.co/Dpq6fF9LmN — PolitiTweet.org
