I have recently learned that saying “colored people” is only slightly less sinful than using either “N” word. The currently approved phrase is “people of color” aka POC.

Consistent with that rule of grammar it seems the correct phrase should be “violence with guns” rather than “gun violence”.

Solar and wind produced only 6.2% total of the energy produced by fossil fuel and yet the Biden cult wants to shut down our PRIMARY source of energy in the HOPE that we will eventually make up the difference ... stupidity on steroids.

(CNSNews.com) – Solar panels produced only 1.9 percent as much energy in the United States in 2021 as did fossil fuels, according to data published by U.S. Department of Energy.
When the energy produced by windmills is added to the energy produced by solar panels, those two sources combined produced 6.2 percent as much energy as fossil fuels in 2021.

Beyond the percentages, wind and solar are unreliable. Some folks in Texas froze to death a winter or so ago to prove this.

I glanced at the contents of the link and did not see any mention of hydroelectric power, which almost certainly is by far the largest source of renewable energy.

Boy Scouts march under the flag of their conquerors.
Once Boy Scouts of America was a wholesome pillar of a healthy society. That’s why leftists had to destroy it.
LGBT militants bullied their way in. Spineless BSA bureaucrats were too terrified of being called homophobes even to defend children. Child sexual abuse suits predictably reduced the organization to bankruptcy. Membership went into a nose dive.
Formerly, the Boy Scouts instilled patriotism. Scouts are taught differently now. As Not the Bee notes,
The Boy Scouts of America now carry LGBT flags at the same height, or even higher, than the Stars & Stripes.
Before long Old Glory will be phased out completely in favor of the flag of their conquerors.
Anything the left is allowed to infiltrate, it will subvert, pervert, render disgusting, and destroy. For examples, look in any direction.
Giving even another millimeter to perverts is not an option.
The BSA is seen marching in the Seattle Pride Parade.
The same parade featured adults cavorting fully naked in front of kids. Here’s what’s left of the Boys Scouts now.

I didn't see much but there is some info starting on Pg. 177 in Renewable Energy Section.

Couldn't agree more. I know I might be just a tad beyond the norm, but I can't see wind and solar having a very long life span as far as country-wide energy suppliers. This is like the llama craze, the only people who made any money were the first ones in, who conned everybody else into thinking it was a realistic plan.

It is becoming more obvious and more well known of the disaster of the windturbines and the negative environmental impact they cause, not to mention the cost, which will never be recouped because they won't run long enough to pay for theirselves.

Chevron selling Bay Area headquarters, paying for employees relocate to Houston.
Plenty of tech companies have moved their headquarters out of the Bay Area in recent years, from startups like Coinbase to industry pioneers like Hewlett Packard and Oracle. Elon Musk has been one particularly outspoken voice decrying California’s business conditions. Now, one of the East Bay’s legacy companies is joining the trend.
Chevron announced it is shuttering its San Ramon global headquarters and even encouraging some employees to move to Houston, the Wall Street Journal reported. The oil company will cover relocation costs for those voluntarily leaving for the Texas office, which has been growing and employs nearly 6,000 people. Meanwhile, the San Ramon office buildings have experienced dwindling numbers in recent years.
When Chevron vacates the 100-acre campus in 2023, freeing up prime real estate for the area’s growing life-sciences industry or developers looking to build apartments, it hopes to move into a smaller space in San Ramon, which will remain its headquarters, the Wall Street Journal said.

In December of last year Ghislaine Maxwell was convicted of conspiracy, sex trafficking and transporting a minor to engage in illegal sex acts.  Today, six months later, she received her sentence, 240 months’ imprisonment.
New York – Ghislaine Maxwell, the socialite who was convicted late last year of helping financier Jeffrey Epstein sexually abuse underage girls, was sentenced on Tuesday to 20 years in prison.
“A sentence of 240 months is sufficient and no graver than necessary,” U.S. District Judge Alison J. Nathan said while issuing the verdict.
Nathan addressed those gathered inside the federal courthouse in lower Manhattan, including Maxwell and some of her victims.
“Ms. Maxwell directly and repeatedly and over the course of many years participated in a horrific scheme,” Nathan said. “Ms. Maxwell worked with Epstein to select young victims who were vulnerable.”
The judge said that Maxwell, 60, played a “pivotal” role facilitating “heinous and predatory” abuse. Nathan also imposed a $750,000 fine, the maximum amount possible under the law.  Outside the courthouse, Maxwell’s lawyer told reporters she plans to appeal.
The question remains… Who were the clients?

Daily Mail: Senate Sergeant-at-Arms Michael Stenger - who was in charge of Capitol security on January 6 and who blamed 'professional agitators' - dies suddenly, hours before TODAY's surprise hearing.
Senate Sergeant at Arms Michael Stenger, 71, died suddenly on Monday.
 He was in charge of securing the Capitol on January 6 and resigned after attack.
His death came on the same day a shock Committee session was announced.
The January 6 Committee will hear from an aide to Trump's chief of staff Tuesday.
Cassidy Hutchinson is first White House staff to testify publicly at the committee.
The hearing was set at the last minute because of fears for her safety.
The man in charge of protecting the Senate during the Capitol riot has died just a day before the Committee investigating the attack was set to reveal new evidence in a surprise session.
Michael Stenger, 71, was the Sergeant at Arms of the Senate on the day of the attempted insurrection.
He resigned amid criticism he had failed to react effectively to the building being overrun.
His sudden death on Monday came the same day an unexpected additional hearing of the committee investigating the riot was announced.
The surprise meeting will 'present recently obtained evidence and receive witness testimony.'
