Climate cultists just can’t help themselves, can they? I’d suggest that the White House give up their own use of fossil fuels and run 100% on solar panels, wind turbines, and jelly beans
White House Adviser Says Texas Outages Show How U.S. Is Unprepared For Climate Change
The extreme weather conditions in Texas, where a winter storm has caused widespread power outages, should serve as a reminder that climate change is real and the United States not fully prepared to deal with its impact, said White House homeland security adviser Liz Sherwood-Randall on Thursday.
“The extreme weather events that we’re experiencing this week across the central, southern and now the eastern United States do yet again demonstrate to us that climate change is real, and it’s happening now, and we’re not adequately prepared for it,” said Sherwood-Randall, who also serves as deputy national security advisor.
“Power grids across our country, particularly in Texas, are overloaded by the demands that are placed on them under these circumstances, and the infrastructure is not built to withstand these extreme conditions,” she added.
Sherwood-Randall said the federal government will work with states to incentivize efforts to reinforce infrastructure against adverse climate events.
If you’re blaming cold and snow on greenhouse gases, you’re a member of a doomsday cult.
Sherwood-Randall said that it’s not physically feasible at the moment to connect the Texas’ independent power grid to the national grid, but the Energy Department is relaxing some environmental standards on an emergency basis to allow Texas to bring additional energy generation online.
Hey, Texans, do you want your power grid connected to the national grid, giving Los Federales control of it? I’m betting the answer is no. Why does it always seem that government wants to grab power using ‘climate change’ as their argument? Anyhow, it wouldn’t have made a difference, since so many lines were down and transformers blown.
Texas shows what happens when you deregulate the power grid
Here you go, John-capacity factor by source during the shutdown. Which 3 performed the best and which 3 the least? https://i2.wp.com/www.powerlineblog.com/ed-assets/2021/02/Screen-Shot-2021-02-20-at-8.24.57-AM.png?w=1160&ssl=1
Deregulated? I guess it’s the meaning of the word. Here-“direct subsidies from the government paying for wind generation, rather than for electricity purchased. This guarantee means the generating companies don’t have to consider market demand, and can build without riskâ€. Since 2006, 80 billion in subsidies to wind power. Read for yourself. https://wattsupwiththat.com/2021/02/20/the-texas-energy-disaster/
Teach I am always amazed at your lack of general science knowledge
Transformers blow because of surges and 1over/underloads
If they were connected o to the national grid that risk would have been reduced
Also Teach the national grid is simple interconnected utilities
“Los Federales” is a very minor participant
John,
Your stupidity and ignorance knows no bounds. Texas, like Louisiana and other states in this area have been greatly harmed by Obama. In the first year of his administration he pulled all of the permits for coal generated electricity. This drastically reduced our generating capacity and left us in a bad way for needs as we are experiencing now.. For whatever reason, the idiot politicians (mostly liberals) put in so called green energy generation which has massively failed. Wind and solar power are far more polluting than fossil fuels. Plus, there is zero need to overly concern ourselves with CO2 issues as that is a hoax.
Then your comment on transformers. Do you sit around and try and determine if you can say something excessively stupid or do you have that come naturally. Regardless your comment is so stupid it defies ability to respond.
Well Dave, sometimes life can get a little boring at the nervous hospital.
What’s a retard to do?

davidas,
If you were merely ignorant, you’d be less harmful. But you are willfully ignorant compounded with spreading your ignorance as facts!
75% of Texas energy is from natural gas, coal and nuclear power. Texas was simply unprepared for this weather catastrophe. Texas was affected an order of magnitude more than any other US state. Nearly all the blackouts occurred in Texas. Why? Two reasons. This was a rare weather event for Texas. And Texas was unprepared for this catastrophe, which is partly understandable. The Lone Star state has their own grid which keeps them from tapping supplies from neighboring states.
Natural gas is supplanting coal because gas is much cheaper now.
Please point out which neighboring states had excess capacity to share.
You’re not very smart.
And you prove it with every comment.

And of course the obvious-what climate apocalypse?
Wouldn’t faze the Amish at all.
Wouldn’t faze the Amish at all.
Texans are all socialists now.
“Patriot” Ted Cruz (R-TX) packed up his family and flew to Cancun. The first Hispanic known to flee Texas to Mexico because of ICE. Why didn’t all Texans just do what the Cruz family did?
Meanwhile, “commie” Rep Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) went to Texas to help, raising $4 million in TX relief funds in the process.
See the results of conservative extremism in action. “Government is the problem, not the solution.”
Rimjob will buy any lie from the left.
BWAHA!!!

Stupid, dishonest, non-response, even for stupid, dishonest Shitlipz.
What? That Rimjob will buy any leftist lie?
Sorry that’s been proven* over and over again.
