Re-watching this video 4 years later... 4 years since I first watched this with utter anger and hate for the man as he was saying there is no global warming. It was this video which made me go down the rabbit hole, read the data, purchase and read climate change and climate economic books, then my mind was changed. I now appreciate this man and respect his work, and other dissenting scientists alike. Well done Monckton!🙏👏👏
Interesting comment. I'm new to the journey you've been on. After watching the false scientific consensus of the pandemic, it made me wonder if the same tactics were used in the climate debate. I've only recently been looking into the subject, but have seen enough to give me the impression that it's another area where debate has been shut down, dissenters are smeared for dismissal, incentives have driven the studies that get published, and censorship/self-censorship are rife. I was really interested to hear that changes in global temperature actually precede changes in atmospheric CO2. I haven't found any decent rebuttle to this claim, though I'm sure one must exist..? If you could point me to any information of debate on this particular issue I'd be most grateful. Thanks 🙏
There may be a minimal amount of warming, quite meaningless. However there are some areas too hot at least sometimes. It would be far more cost effective to cool down only where it is hot, when it is hot, not everywhere evenly. There are better ways than reducing CO2 emissions. It would be interesting to know who is funding this climate agenda, when they are pushing it so hard. Must be big money behind. Chinese business?
@@gnoelalexmay historically such as snowball earth you need an event such as milankovitch cycles to create the warming event, the release of CO2 is the forcing which exponentially increases the heating effects creating a cycle of ever increasing temperatures, this is well understood in science. Effectively by releasing giga tonnes of CO2 and other gases mankind has taken out the middle man and is producing the forcing effect, releasing tundra methane in viscous feedback loop which has started to occur.
Absolutely brilliant, I only wish more people would see through this scam. We can guarantee that the tax payers of each country will have to pay for the decommissioning when the fat cats have reaped all of the profit. Someone also told me about the damage to the wings of insects from the powerful vortices. These windmills are hideous, we have long known of their inefficiency and potential to damage, the government has no justification in pursuing these devices. Wealthy landlords have also benefitted from significant revenues for allowing these windmills to be constructed on their estates. Thank you for uploading this video of Lord Monckton, I was really grateful for the opportunity to listen to his presentation.
Lord Monckton is one of the few "Lords" that I actually respect and enjoy listening to. Well done my Lord. You bring logic and facts to an over-politicized discussion.
Know a guy that worked at the Altamont wind farm here in CA (7,000+ turbines). Every morning they’d drive out and pick up the carcasses of owls, eagles, hawks and other raptors, bats and birds. Every day.
ohhhhh, so what? I'm sure their observations of all the dead raptors, bats, and birds is statistically significant. No, wait a fucking minute, it ISN'T. So again, so what??
We have just this week had a report that in recent years North American bird population has decreased by 3 billion birds. Ontario Canada has wasted to much money on wind turbines that we are still paying for( for the next 45 years). Our electricity cost are among the highest in the world. Lord Moncton -Your work and wisdom is so sorely needed to stop this "sky is falling "hysteria from the green parties and persons. Thank you so much of taking the time to make these matters clear!
@@jimjones8736 Where? Vancouver reached 30. I presume deeper inland with less ocean breeze could be higher. 30 in Vancouver is not special, either. It reaches 28-32 every year. In 1915 it reached 32. Were humans involved with the weather back then? Highest in the past 100 years was 2009 at 34. Now, I am not the highest proponent for Coal, even though with scrubbers and other filtration has made it on-par with Natural gas for emissions, it is the mining and logistics of moving it around the world that gets me. When the new SMR nuclear system become viable, this will be the solution to global energy requirements.
[] ... North American bird population has decreased by 3 billion birds. I know, house cats and high-rise buildings are a problem too. But that is not the issue here. About windmills ... the ROI is amazingly fast nowadays. Less than 5 years or so.
Sodthong1: Clever. Sadly similar to the fusion power industry. However, AOC has a better basis - she is repeating the timeline to a tipping point, not the disaster itself.
Tipping point in 2000? I am old enough to remember that I did not see a single scientific reference claiming so. Please present your scientific reference saying so. Much obliged.
I became a fan of this man the moment he started the conversation by hugging another human being. Such a simple gesture is now rare to see. How many times have we seen bill gates hug anyone.
@@jameswcollett he is a compulsive and relentless liar. “I sit in the House of Lords”- no, he doesn’t. “I was Margaret Thatchers science advisor”- no, he wasn’t. He is also no more a climate scientist than he’s a member of the Spice Girls. A pathetic, lying fantasist- nothing more.
The entire climate debate reminds me of something I learned from history classes in secondary school. In medieval times they were debating whether the earth was flat or a sphere. The majority of people believed the first to be true, the minority believed the latter was true. However, the majority believed in a flat earth because they were told by the church it was the truth, the minority believed the earth was a sphere because they had scientifically proven it. In the climate debate, the majority believes in what the environmentalist church tells them is true, the minority listens to proven science and facts to find the truth.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!! Yeah, you're part of the courageous vanguard! If only we all were brave enough to stick our heads in the sand in our search for the truth. I guess our mistake was in listening to the climate scientists rather than trusting in "Lord" Monckton - and he's such a heavyweight in the world of science, too! Oh well, too late for me to change, guess I'll be stuck in flat earth world forever...
@@user-lo3vc4ot5g You are missing my point. Alarmists only seem to listen to the majority. Meanwhile, the minority is ignored. History has proven that sometimes the minority is correct about the matter. People who blindly follow the majority are the people sticking their heads into the ground in their search for truth. They are mere sheep following the flock. People like Lord Monckton are in search of the truth by criticising the consensus. Science needs critical thinkers. Even if they are proven wrong now or later, science needs them to prevent tunnel vision or biased science.
@@Stormfox93 You are missing the other guy's point. Monckton studied classics. He has no scientific qualifications AT ALL. He is a well spoken parrot with a good memory. Check out the Monckton debunked video.
Monckton - An example to all of what a real, living, genuine, fraud - fighting, corrageous MAN looks like.....and......an example of why practical math matters....... Thank you, Sir.

Nah, the side of stupid.
"an example of why practical math matter" Here is some for you. In 1827 Jean Baptiste Fourier first recognized the warming effect of greenhouse gases. In 1859, John Tyndall did the original research on the physical properties of CO2. In 1896, the first quantitative estimate of the effect of doubling atmospheric CO2 on the mean surface temperature of the Earth was made by Svante Arrhenius. In May, 1967, Journal of the Atmospheric Sciences "Thermal Equilibrium of the Atmosphere with a given Distribution of Relative Humidity." Manabe and Wetherald were the first to include all the main physical processes relevant to the problem, using a model that was no more complicated than necessary to achieve this. This led to much more realistic simulations and enabled the results to be explained in terms of processes which could be observed in the real world. Manabe and Wetherald made a number of other discoveries. First, that the temperature of the stratosphere cooled markedly when carbon dioxide was doubled. This is the characteristic “fingerprint” of increasing carbon dioxide: the troposphere warms and the stratosphere cools, as we have observed over the last 50 years. So, let's look at what the actual science says. Lets first look at this from incoming light. The Sun, with an effective temperature of approximately 5800 K, is an approximate black body with an emission spectrum peaked in the central, yellow-green part of the visible spectrum. Of that, about 55% of incoming sunlight to Earth is infrared photons. They strike the Earth and are reradiated back out into the atmosphere. The other 45% is white light and of that, about 30% of that is reflected which is what you would see if you were to look at the Earth from outer space. That should leave about 31.5% of the total light being white, to strike the Earth and be reradiated in the Earth's black body 255k infrared range back into the atmosphere. That would mean 55% infrared photons coming in and 86.5% total infrared photons going out. As we increase secondary greenhouse gases, CO2, CH4, O3, N2O, CFCs, and HCFCs, in the atmosphere, we block more incoming infrared photons, slightly cooling off the planet. Being there are more outgoing infrared photons than incoming, we should trap more outgoing infrared photons than reflecting incoming photons. That being said, all things being equal, on the mean, the planet must heat. Now let us look at this from the secondary greenhouse gas CO2. One of CO2's properties is it has a reactive band in the 255K range where it absorbs and releases infrared photons in Earth's black body radiation range. Once released after absorption, there is one chance in 41,253 that infrared photon will continue within one degree in the same direction. This basically gives that photon a 50/50 chance of going either up or down. Since the oceans cover about 71% of the Earth's surface, this gives that photon about a 35% chance of hitting a body of water. Infrared photons will not penetrate a body of water's surface, but will instead excite an H2O molecule causing evaporation. H2O is the primary greenhouse gas which prevents the Earth from having a climate like our moon. Consequently, the more CO2 we put into the atmosphere, the more H2O gets into the atmosphere, the warmer the planet gets. This is how a 46% increase in CO2 caused a 7% increase in absolute humidity. The present increase in temperature due to this combination of additional H2O and CO2 with over a doubling of CH4, in the atmosphere is approximately .9C. Because it takes a tremendous amount of time for the oceans to heat, it will take centuries for the Earth to reach temperature equilibrium. If we continue to inject 37 gigatonnes annually of CO2 into the atmosphere, that heating process will continue to accelerate.
Always glad to see my Lord Monckton. The man is tireless in uplifting the dignity of man. Voices like him are rare in the Earth. And people would be wise to give ear. But fools never learn as the Apostle Paul said: "Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth."
@@mcmanustony I'm all ears. Name them. The man follows certain data for his conclusions. I assume your source for data is the opposite. I personally know the man. I don't know you.
Gary McAleer can you name anyone else who has had a cease and desist letter issued from the House of Lords demanding he stop falsely claiming to be a member? He has claimed to have written peer reviewed papers on climate science. Can you cite them? He claims to have been Thatchers science advisor. Not bad for a man with a basic degree in classics and a diploma in journalism- and also the “fact” seems to have escaped M Thatcher who mentions her advisor in her Memoirs and it ain’t Moncton..... That barely scratches the surface of his dishonesty.
@@mcmanustony I have no disagreement, except this: the man's judgment on climate change is the rare voice I will always uplift to be of value. Toxic pollution is the great curse of the age: from radio and microwaves to industrial chemicals. Each of us carries over 100 manmade chemical toxins stored in our tissues. Climate change is just another time-and-money-wasted-distraction from what needs to be addressed.
Gary McAleer so you accept that he lied about the Lords, lied about having written peer reviewed papers, lied about being Thatchers adviser.....but his is still a valuable voice? Really? The voice of an unstoppable lying narcissist is of value? He also relentlessly lies about climate change, grievously misrepresents the work of real scientists and continued unashamed when those scientists call him out on his lies. His voice is has much value as a bus drivers on algebraic topology.
Thank you, Lord Moncton. This is what I have been saying for years. The money spent on needless renewables could have electrified Africa with African coal.
As an engineer: please, they are NOT mills ... no grain involved. They are wind turbines and simply mining the copper (coils) required offsets all their benefits.
The word "windmill" is a semantical correct alternative for wind turbines. Just using the word mill (without wind) might be lazy but is understood and valid in the correct context as illustrated in the following sentence: "The mills on the hill produced all the electricity for the nearby town". As for semantical value, compare context with saying or writing: "The US invaded Iraq" Versus: "The USA invaded Iraq" Using "US" (without the formal A) might be lazy but is understood and valid in the correct context. Context matters. To illustrate, the following sentence is semantical correct: "The USA fellows had their traditional Christmas dinner" Wheras the following is incorrect: "The US fellows had their traditional Christmas dinner" For this specific context see: www.unitedstatesartists.org/
@@wimahlers but there is nothing being milled. The term wind mill is used so as to distinguish from a water mill. Wind and water energy was harnessed to mill grain to produce flour. Wind turbines are not milling grain so it is absolutely incorrect to use the term wind mill, or even wind farm. The wind is not being farmed, nobody is growing wind and these farms are not producing wind. But their presence is the result of a massive carbon footprint already when the consumption of the materials used are taken into account, including mining, cement for the massive foundations, trenches for cables, service roads up the sides of mountains and the destruction of the environment and bio diversity at the placement construction sites. And then the energy production companies have the cheek to say 100% green energy.
Same words have different meanings in different context. You may not find it appropriate, but many dictionary definitions that do show context do. See, among others: onelook.com/?w=windmill&ls=a As to your other argument, every single construction requires energy to build and maintain, This is also true for oil, gas, coal, and nuclear power plants. Carbon footprint calculation must be based on the lifespan and source reuasability of the construction. Also, techniques are changing. A type of Norwegian sea windmill (wind turbine if you prefer) floats, and therefore does use exactly zero volume of cement for its base. And because it floats it can also be relocated to other positions in the sea during its lifetime (granted, it costs extra energy to relocate and re-cable).
because it's all BS from a FF Funded liar for hire. About the only thing Lord Bunkum said was true was he's there to screw you quickly. Let's look at this untrained, non expert pharmacist's findings? There have been no direct proof that wind farms cause negative health effects there is however evidence from a nocebo effect from anti turbine activists and their lies. reneweconomy.com.au/the-nocebo-effect-and-why-its-much-more-dangerous-than-wind-turbines-80849/ Then conversely the negative effects of FF pollution are never mentioned, namely the adverse affects of AGW and death of 7-9 million people a year from FF air pollution are worse. Expensive: but less than coal and supplies cheaper electricity. www.lazard.com/media/450436/rehcd3.jpg No need for them: He starts saying because the oceans are the best guide to how much we are warming. So oceans where we don't live is more important than surface where we do live. Forgetting his mantra of "the ocean ate my warming" where he previously criticised climate scientists for claiming most of the recent warming went into the oceans and slowed surface warming. It is warming at 1 C per 450 years or 0.45C/century yet it's warmed nearly 1C/century. www.woodfortrees.org/plot/hadsst3gl/from:1900/trend/plot/hadsst3gl/from:1900 Because for the previous 350 years there was no AGW. Fellow conman Patrick Moore, who fraudulently claimed to be the co-founder of Greenpeace, BS no warming: ua-cam.com/video/LM7O-GNEcjM/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/ovKw6YjqSfM/v-deo.html His lies about the consensus en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Climate_change_denial He doesn't do campaigns....unless he's paid to and does bad maths. Then he tries to use 1 cancelled wind project to claim world mitigation of AGW is financially bad. He neglects the fact RE is cheaper than coal now and falling so you save money converting to RE. www.lazard.com/media/450436/rehcd3.jpg He neglects to look at the costs of doing nothing. FF subsidies amount to $5.3 trillion a year, so over 20 years about $106 trillion. The estimated costs of keeping temp rise to 2 C according to a Bloomberg study, $12.1 trillion over 25 years of INVESTMENT, not FF handouts. So let's say we do it in 20. That means doing nothing is about $94 trillion MORE expensive. Add the estimated $30 trillion loss to GDP. By 2100 the cost alone of sea level rise mitigation is about $14 trillion a year. So if nothing is done that's another $280 trillion every 20 years by 2100. Just for starters. So not even close to his claims of cheaper to adapt. "Cost" of green jobs on employment, which actually creates jobs. www.forbes.com/sites/niallmccarthy/2017/01/25/u-s-solar-energy-employs-more-people-than-oil-coal-and-gas-combined-infographic/#10434a022800 Wind turbines need to be on a "massive scale" which is less than the massive scale of coal mines etc. such as the 67 km2 not metres, kilometres, Haerwusu coal mine. Never does he include the wrecking of the coast from oil and pipeline spills such as the $61+ billion BP oil spill, or the FF decommissioning costs or the environmental costs of FFs. Intermittent and therefore they emit more CO2: He neglects that coal needs to keep going when electricity is not needed because it can't wind up fast enough. Other forms of generation can be used such as gas which can be switched of when not in use and ramp up quickly. German plans to reduce their emissions by 80-95% this way. He also neglects storage. Take the Tesla battery installation in South Australia which paid for itself within 12 months at better than 100% return on investment. Environmental: Cries about turbine bird kills but neglects FAR FAR GREATER bird and bat kill and totally neglects ocean life kill from FFs. www.evwind.es/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/BirdDeaths.jpg So he wants to give Africa electricity, good, well RE is 1/2 the cost of coal and far easier to install in remote areas. So RE is twice as good as coal.

Wind farms do not have to meet base load energy requirements as they are classed as secondary energy producers, not primary. Like solar voltaic cells, they cannot guarantee a constant supply into the electricity grid network. Wind fluctuations, low wind turbine speeds and very high winds drastically reduce their efficiency. Then there are the towers, massive concrete bases and power transmission cabling. You cannot just put these wind farms just anywhere, they have be placed in wind corridors. Issues of infra sound that can effect humans living in close proximity.
anton brum And also the power company still has to keep oil,coal,nuc,and natural gas plants in working order for times when the wind is not blowing or at night time.
anton brum - then what you're saying is that the wind farms aren't viable, seeing that they consume more energy in their manufacturing than they will put out over their entire usable lifespan. Put simply, they literally waste energy.
Anton you really do not understand modern generation networks at all. Solar panels were shown to meet base load requirements by the CSIRO but modern networks no longer need that classification. By the way the solar battery in South Australia has significantly reduced the cost of power in South Australia.

@@harry130747 Think again. You need to add the lifespan of the turbine with the amount of energy it can create and compare that to the tremendous amount of resources it took to build it and install it. Time deteriorates everything, even if it is not spinning.

What bothers me is when they place them in large cities(and nearby coast lines) of more conventional energy sources, purely for political show-and-tell. I don't know who they are showing, but it does tell one thing: They are not afraid to spend YOUR MONEY on useless things.
@@harry130747 You're kidding right? For a start the wind is free only when it blows - and at the right speed, like Goldilocks porridge - not too fast and not too slow but juuust right.

I researched wind turbines at sea too. Found it a staggeringly stupid idea on every level, environmental, cost, nature and economy. Then a skilful technical artist did a full digital scale mock up of the turbines on the beautiful landscape. It showed the fraud of the developers models. It was a Dutch/French owned company proposal. Then I went to a Greenpeace meeting in London - they thought the turbines at sea a great idea but with a staggering lack of analyses. It fitted their narrative and that was good enough. I wondered whether it was because of funding but it shocked me. Then I found that other UK nature charities would not contest this environmental travesty either. It was political, not environmental which then made me question charitable big business. Now I see Patrick Moore who started Greenpeace, says it is now, very sadly, a commercial corporation.
Most charities are nothing more than a means of generating income for their board members and shareholders...

Watching Al Gore's movie years ago, I started laughing ! Never had I heard so much hogwash delivered with such gravity ! Yet, people accepted it without question.What an indictment of the human intellect.
You might also calculate the CO2 produced by the manufacturer of the cement and other materials used to construct the wind generators then subtract that amount from the CO2 savings. Thank you Christopher for your long and excellent effort to stop this madness.
Dear Lord Monckton, thank you for the excellent lecture. Would you consider reviewing what the impact would be if our focus was on energy use efficiency and pollution reduction (toxic chemicals, plastic etc). I don't know what the math will show, but I am imagining that it would dwarf all the windmill type impact analysis in terms of benefit. Imagine what 1% efficiency increase would mean where efficiency=device energy, and productivity + our habits etc. Its one thing to reduce warming gasses (assuming that it was necessary) and another to destroy the various ecosystems with pollution and bad management.
From one Viscount to another Viscount .You are absolutely correct.I am a Master electrician and I know exactly what you are talking about .The cost to operate windmills are far to high .And the solar forcing has been completely omitted for so called climate change .Coal fired plants are best for Africa and need to be implemented asap to solve many issues .Nuclear is out of the question as they are far too unstable politically
That was awesome! But I’m super frustrated now. It’s November 2019 and my government (Australia) is still being held to ransom by “green” bullshit. And I’m personally being held to ransom by an electricity corporation because they can just charge me whatever the f they want in the name of “renewables”.
Bat WomanXVII - I live in the west, where we have less choice than over east; we have only Synergy (used to be Western Power); and our bills only get higher every time, yet I know we're consuming less power. Outside of plain simple greed on the part of the privatised electricity corporations, the plan is to get the public screaming out for "renewables" because they imagine the electricity they pay through the nose for will become cheaper. It won't, of course. Our days of cheap energy are over.
Actually Geoff I live in the West too and solar panels have hugely reduced my power bills and the fact is wind and solar are now less than half the cost of fossil fuel powered energy. As soon as batteries get cheaper I will completely go solar. By the way have you noticed the massive fire fronts and the 9 year drought destroying the livelihoods of many people in QLD and Northern NSW, even though its not summer yet? Global warming is really kicking in now.
Really so why are they sucking up to Adani and other coal companies? I don't suppose that its because the Coal companies are pouring millions of dollars into the Governments pocket. By the way I hope your home hasn't been burnt down by the huge bushfires or that the farmers in your area haven't been made bankrupt by the nine year drought or that your town water supply has run out.
and he didn't even mention the maintenance cost of these turbines - particularly those that are sighted at sea - and those that are sighted in the sea are prone to "leading edge" corrosion from the rain and wind which carries salt....!
The wind turbines are a waste of taxpayers money. Raising atmospheric carbon dioxide levels greens the planet and increases agricultural yields. It does more good than harm. Man has been changing the environment since Palaeolithic times. Even hunter gatherers alter the fauna and flora in their environment. It is much more economical to adapt to any changes in climate than wasting trillions of dollars trying to reduce carbon dioxide emissions.
why didnt he mention the co2 output created from the production of these unneeded things?. the fuel to ship and install. the fuel to melt the materials needed. the fuel to service them over their life of use. weigh that into the equation and you net into negative numbers.
Lol that is just indicative of his and your obvious lack of intelligence. U do realize they don't work like that?-hmmm u might need to do a little actual real research.
So you want a persistent liar in charge, who pontificates on climate science despite having no scientific qualifications whatsoever? Yup sounds sensible. Hope you're enjoying the heatwave
@@jamesthecat What fascinates me is the psychology of these people - that is: the ones that don't have oil interests. They reject science in general and don't understand the scientific method or how science works, yet they are perfectly willing to accept Lord Bunkum science, without even having the faintest idea what he is talking about. I think it's probably a kind of clique thing. In group- out group. They gain their strength from knowing they are part of an elite group with special insight into the real truth. Yes, that's it: Feeling special is very important. It is also much easier and cheaper than having to study physics for years at school and university... Omg! That sounds like it could be Lord Monckton!😀
Can anyone direct me to a credible source that calculated the amount of energy needed to build these turbines (so for the making of concrete, steel, glassfiber etc.) please?
I recently came across a meme that I cannot find the source of, but for interest's sake it states that "a two-megawatt windmill is made up of 260 tons of steel that require 300 tons of iron ore and 170 tons of coking coal, all mined, transported and produced by hydrocarbons. A windmill could spin until it falls apart and never generate as much energy as was invested in building it". That's just the steel. And as engineer 800lbgrila commented above, the copper has to be mined. At present, I fail to see how wind turbines can possibly be viable in terms of energy required just to build them.
Very informative. Thank you. I wonder why they refer to wind turbines as windmills. Windmills are use to mill cereals. Isn't wind turbine the correct term? I know, I am being picky. I live in Blyth, Northumberland, Uk. I agree with an earlier comment about the numbers of wind turbines in the north of England and in Scotland. From the beach at Blyth I can see 1 windfarm of 5 massive turbines about 3-4 miles offshore, another of two turbines not far from them and one huge turbine at the start of the main pier into the harbour. The latter replaced nine smaller turbines that used to run along the pier.Then there are two more large turbines about 4 miles west of Blyth and another two windfarms with a dozen or so turbines 10 -20 miles north west of Blyth. All can be seen from the beach. It's ruining the views we used to have.
Maurice Laidler many years ago I went to Crete, and one of the tourist sites was a farming valley where the irrigation system was run by windmills. Windmills in Lassithi. At the time we were told that we were lucky to see them as they were phasing them out for electric ones, as the wind ones were too unreliable.
I would love to see those Animal rights activists sue the windmill owners and the Governments that have allowed this to happen, regarding bird kills etc.
When mining companies sign a mining lease they undertake to rehabilitate the land at the end. Mostly it ends up better than when they started. When windfarms close doen they leave the towers there to slowly rust away as terrible eyesores, and the land is rendered useless. This is supposed to be "renewable" energy.

This is good information. I do believe that we should not rule out the use of nuclear power. Our currently used nuclear technologies are more expensive than coal burning in the short run. The new reactor designs that should be available soon, if ignorance about nuclear doesn't slow them down, should be as cheap as coal and environmental safer than coal. Nuclear has 2 million times the energy per unit of mass as any form of chemical energy such as coal. There is less digging to get the fuel and the waste isn't really waste at all but a valuable resources that we can use for all kinds of interest stuff. Thank for being interested in mathematically and scientifically driven choices about our energy future.

@@louiseyoung7582 You can't blame that on windmills, it's more likely just an ever changing climate. Weather has been changing where I live far before windmills. All I've noticed is when dove season comes around there are hardly any.

Judge for yourself, and don't take pothoer54's word for it, DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH. look up the stuff and compare the originals to what Moncton claims, and decide for yourself just how truthful he is being. I daresay yolu will be disappointed.
This is a good presentation. However, he neglected to include the fossil fuel cost in producing the windmills, installing them and the infrastructure required to connect their electricity to the grid. Huge amounts of steel, aluminum and concrete are need to do this and a staggering amount of fossil fuel is required to produce them. That fossil fuel cost should be factored into the equation.

@@Britewhiteram Although i severely disagree that high CO2 poses any problem whatsoever, i do agree that 4th generation nuclear reactors should be built left and right for the sake of efficiency and reliable and secure electricity.
It occurs to me, that these expensive windfarms and solar farms are undesirable: it would be better to first enrich the world's population with affordable oil, before switching over to durable energy. As there is now no urgent reason to switch to durable energy, it seems economically wasteful to do so. Abandoning crude oil would mean making an effort to keep the oil in the ground for future generations, thatv are not allowed to touch it, instead have to keep it in the ground for future generations to do the same.
These "expensive" wind and solar farms which generate cheaper, cleaner electricity, are undesirable for the FF industry and their coal cucked cult of denial brethren and their $5.3 trillion a year taxpayer funded welfare scam. www.lazard.com/media/450436/rehcd3.jpg For the rest of humanity, most definitely desirable.
I met an oil industry engineer from Texas whilst snowboarding in Canada. She told me fossil fuel companies love wind and solar and are investing. She said fossil fuel use was increased as coal fired plants are shut down when the wind blows and the sun shines and restarted whent its not blowing or shining It take a lot of coal to cold start a coal fired power station but not much to keep it running.
So fossil fuel turbines don't wear out? I wonder why the old coal based generation plants are being shut down and the owners want to build wind and solar. Perhaps its because wind and solar power is half the cost .
Powskier: first, do some research on what it takes to manufacture solar panels. Then how to dispose of them when they have reached the end of their life. Hint - you can't. Then work out how you are going to use them when the sun don't shine. Then work out the costs of making, buying, maintaining and disposing of batteries. Then compare all of this with the cost of nuclear power. Many nuclear power stations have been operating for years and there have only been a very few incidents. The Russian one I would put down to poor design, materials and operation. The Japanese one I would put down to being built on a fault line and no being able to cope - once again poor design. But there are many out there that have been operating on land, in submarines and big ships for years. Both solar and windmills have come about because of the fiction of AGW. But our laws should ensure that industries clear up their act re. pollution. However, try telling that to the Indians and the Chinese.
Odd how you sook about birds being killed when 7-9 million people die each year from FF air pollution. Don't seem too concerned about the far greater number of birds killed by FFs either I see.

I’ve always admired Lord Monckton but I don’t know whether this is covered in this video but why are we demonising CO2? I can anyone answer that for me please
Yes in Northern NSW there has been no significant rain in 9 years. The farmers are going to the wall and agricultural exports have decreased markedly. Droughts cause farmers to give up farming and sometimes they suicide.
Re-watching this video 4 years later... 4 years since I first watched this with utter anger and hate for the man as he was saying there is no global warming. It was this video which made me go down the rabbit hole, read the data, purchase and read climate change and climate economic books, then my mind was changed. I now appreciate this man and respect his work, and other dissenting scientists alike. Well done Monckton!🙏👏👏
Interesting comment.
I'm new to the journey you've been on. After watching the false scientific consensus of the pandemic, it made me wonder if the same tactics were used in the climate debate. I've only recently been looking into the subject, but have seen enough to give me the impression that it's another area where debate has been shut down, dissenters are smeared for dismissal, incentives have driven the studies that get published, and censorship/self-censorship are rife.
I was really interested to hear that changes in global temperature actually precede changes in atmospheric CO2. I haven't found any decent rebuttle to this claim, though I'm sure one must exist..?
If you could point me to any information of debate on this particular issue I'd be most grateful.
Thanks 🙏
@@gnoelalexmay indeed it is the same fraud
There may be a minimal amount of warming, quite meaningless. However there are some areas too hot at least sometimes. It would be far more cost effective to cool down only where it is hot, when it is hot, not everywhere evenly. There are better ways than reducing CO2 emissions.
It would be interesting to know who is funding this climate agenda, when they are pushing it so hard. Must be big money behind. Chinese business?
And yet of the 10 hottest years in recorded history they have happened in the last 20. Next you’ll be on chemtrails turning frogs gay.
@@gnoelalexmay historically such as snowball earth you need an event such as milankovitch cycles to create the warming event, the release of CO2 is the forcing which exponentially increases the heating effects creating a cycle of ever increasing temperatures, this is well understood in science. Effectively by releasing giga tonnes of CO2 and other gases mankind has taken out the middle man and is producing the forcing effect, releasing tundra methane in viscous feedback loop which has started to occur.

Absolutely brilliant, I only wish more people would see through this scam. We can guarantee that the tax payers of each country will have to pay for the decommissioning when the fat cats have reaped all of the profit. Someone also told me about the damage to the wings of insects from the powerful vortices. These windmills are hideous, we have long known of their inefficiency and potential to damage, the government has no justification in pursuing these devices. Wealthy landlords have also benefitted from significant revenues for allowing these windmills to be constructed on their estates.

Know a guy that worked at the Altamont wind farm here in CA (7,000+ turbines). Every morning they’d drive out and pick up the carcasses of owls, eagles, hawks and other raptors, bats and birds. Every day.

The entire climate debate reminds me of something I learned from history classes in secondary school.
In medieval times they were debating whether the earth was flat or a sphere. The majority of people believed the first to be true, the minority believed the latter was true. However, the majority believed in a flat earth because they were told by the church it was the truth, the minority believed the earth was a sphere because they had scientifically proven it. In the climate debate, the majority believes in what the environmentalist church tells them is true, the minority listens to proven science and facts to find the truth.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!! Yeah, you're part of the courageous vanguard! If only we all were brave enough to stick our heads in the sand in our search for the truth. I guess our mistake was in listening to the climate scientists rather than trusting in "Lord" Monckton - and he's such a heavyweight in the world of science, too! Oh well, too late for me to change, guess I'll be stuck in flat earth world forever...
@@user-lo3vc4ot5g You are missing my point. Alarmists only seem to listen to the majority. Meanwhile, the minority is ignored. History has proven that sometimes the minority is correct about the matter. People who blindly follow the majority are the people sticking their heads into the ground in their search for truth. They are mere sheep following the flock. People like Lord Monckton are in search of the truth by criticising the consensus. Science needs critical thinkers. Even if they are proven wrong now or later, science needs them to prevent tunnel vision or biased science.

"an example of why practical math matter" Here is some for you.
In 1827 Jean Baptiste Fourier first recognized the warming effect of greenhouse gases.
In 1859, John Tyndall did the original research on the physical properties of CO2.
In 1896, the first quantitative estimate of the effect of doubling atmospheric CO2 on the mean surface temperature of the Earth was made by Svante Arrhenius.
In May, 1967, Journal of the Atmospheric Sciences
"Thermal Equilibrium of the Atmosphere with a given Distribution of Relative Humidity."
Manabe and Wetherald were the first to include all the main physical processes relevant to the problem, using a model that was no more complicated than necessary to achieve this. This led to much more realistic simulations and enabled the results to be explained in terms of processes which could be observed in the real world.
Manabe and Wetherald made a number of other discoveries. First, that the temperature of the stratosphere cooled markedly when carbon dioxide was doubled. This is the characteristic “fingerprint” of increasing carbon dioxide: the troposphere warms and the stratosphere cools, as we have observed over the last 50 years. So, let's look at what the actual science says.
Lets first look at this from incoming light. The Sun, with an effective temperature of approximately 5800 K, is an approximate black body with an emission spectrum peaked in the central, yellow-green part of the visible spectrum. Of that, about 55% of incoming sunlight to Earth is infrared photons. They strike the Earth and are reradiated back out into the atmosphere. The other 45% is white light and of that, about 30% of that is reflected which is what you would see if you were to look at the Earth from outer space. That should leave about 31.5% of the total light being white, to strike the Earth and be reradiated in the Earth's black body 255k infrared range back into the atmosphere. That would mean 55% infrared photons coming in and 86.5% total infrared photons going out. As we increase secondary greenhouse gases, CO2, CH4, O3, N2O, CFCs, and HCFCs, in the atmosphere, we block more incoming infrared photons, slightly cooling off the planet. Being there are more outgoing infrared photons than incoming, we should trap more outgoing infrared photons than reflecting incoming photons. That being said, all things being equal, on the mean, the planet must heat.
Now let us look at this from the secondary greenhouse gas CO2. One of CO2's properties is it has a reactive band in the 255K range where it absorbs and releases infrared photons in Earth's black body radiation range. Once released after absorption, there is one chance in 41,253 that infrared photon will continue within one degree in the same direction. This basically gives that photon a 50/50 chance of going either up or down. Since the oceans cover about 71% of the Earth's surface, this gives that photon about a 35% chance of hitting a body of water. Infrared photons will not penetrate a body of water's surface, but will instead excite an H2O molecule causing evaporation. H2O is the primary greenhouse gas which prevents the Earth from having a climate like our moon. Consequently, the more CO2 we put into the atmosphere, the more H2O gets into the atmosphere, the warmer the planet gets. This is how a 46% increase in CO2 caused a 7% increase in absolute humidity. The present increase in temperature due to this combination of additional H2O and CO2 with over a doubling of CH4, in the atmosphere is approximately .9C. Because it takes a tremendous amount of time for the oceans to heat, it will take centuries for the Earth to reach temperature equilibrium. If we continue to inject 37 gigatonnes annually of CO2 into the atmosphere, that heating process will continue to accelerate.
Critique must include alternatives to mitigate general env pollution/degradation.

Always glad to see my Lord Monckton. The man is tireless in uplifting the dignity of man. Voices like him are rare in the Earth. And people would be wise to give ear. But fools never learn as the Apostle Paul said: "Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth."

He has claimed to have written peer reviewed papers on climate science. Can you cite them?
He claims to have been Thatchers science advisor. Not bad for a man with a basic degree in classics and a diploma in journalism- and also the “fact” seems to have escaped M Thatcher who mentions her advisor in her Memoirs and it ain’t Moncton.....
That barely scratches the surface of his dishonesty.
@@mcmanustony I have no disagreement, except this: the man's judgment on climate change is the rare voice I will always uplift to be of value.

Climate change is just another time-and-money-wasted-distraction from what needs to be addressed.

Thank you, Lord Moncton. This is what I have been saying for years. The money spent on needless renewables could have electrified Africa with African coal.
As an engineer: please, they are NOT mills ... no grain involved. They are wind turbines and simply mining the copper (coils) required offsets all their benefits.
The word "windmill" is a semantical correct alternative for wind turbines. Just using the word mill (without wind) might be lazy but is understood and valid in the correct context as illustrated in the following sentence:
"The mills on the hill produced all the electricity for the nearby town".
As for semantical value, compare context with saying or writing:
"The US invaded Iraq"
Versus:
"The USA invaded Iraq"
Using "US" (without the formal A) might be lazy but is understood and valid in the correct context.
Context matters. To illustrate, the following sentence is semantical correct:
"The USA fellows had their traditional Christmas dinner"
Wheras the following is incorrect:
"The US fellows had their traditional Christmas dinner"
For this specific context see:
www.unitedstatesartists.org/
@@wimahlers but there is nothing being milled. The term wind mill is used so as to distinguish from a water mill. Wind and water energy was harnessed to mill grain to produce flour. Wind turbines are not milling grain so it is absolutely incorrect to use the term wind mill, or even wind farm. The wind is not being farmed, nobody is growing wind and these farms are not producing wind. But their presence is the result of a massive carbon footprint already when the consumption of the materials used are taken into account, including mining, cement for the massive foundations, trenches for cables, service roads up the sides of mountains and the destruction of the environment and bio diversity at the placement construction sites. And then the energy production companies have the cheek to say 100% green energy.
Same words have different meanings in different context. You may not find it appropriate, but many dictionary definitions that do show context do. See, among others:
onelook.com/?w=windmill&ls=a
As to your other argument, every single construction requires energy to build and maintain, This is also true for oil, gas, coal, and nuclear power plants.
Carbon footprint calculation must be based on the lifespan and source reuasability of the construction.
Also, techniques are changing. A type of Norwegian sea windmill (wind turbine if you prefer) floats, and therefore does use exactly zero volume of cement for its base. And because it floats it can also be relocated to other positions in the sea during its lifetime (granted, it costs extra energy to relocate and re-cable).

Then he tries to use 1 cancelled wind project to claim world mitigation of AGW is financially bad. He neglects the fact RE is cheaper than coal now and falling so you save money converting to RE.
www.lazard.com/media/450436/rehcd3.jpg
He neglects to look at the costs of doing nothing. FF subsidies amount to $5.3 trillion a year, so over 20 years about $106 trillion. The estimated costs of keeping temp rise to 2 C according to a Bloomberg study, $12.1 trillion over 25 years of INVESTMENT, not FF handouts. So let's say we do it in 20. That means doing nothing is about $94 trillion MORE expensive. Add the estimated $30 trillion loss to GDP. By 2100 the cost alone of sea level rise mitigation is about $14 trillion a year. So if nothing is done that's another $280 trillion every 20 years by 2100. Just for starters. So not even close to his claims of cheaper to adapt.
"Cost" of green jobs on employment, which actually creates jobs.

Wind turbines need to be on a "massive scale" which is less than the massive scale of coal mines etc. such as the 67 km2 not metres, kilometres, Haerwusu coal mine.
Never does he include the wrecking of the coast from oil and pipeline spills such as the $61+ billion BP oil spill, or the FF decommissioning costs or the environmental costs of FFs.
Intermittent and therefore they emit more CO2:
He neglects that coal needs to keep going when electricity is not needed because it can't wind up fast enough. Other forms of generation can be used such as gas which can be switched of when not in use and ramp up quickly. German plans to reduce their emissions by 80-95% this way. He also neglects storage. Take the Tesla battery installation in South Australia which paid for itself within 12 months at better than 100% return on investment.
Environmental: Cries about turbine bird kills but neglects FAR FAR GREATER bird and bat kill and totally neglects ocean life kill from FFs.

So he wants to give Africa electricity, good, well RE is 1/2 the cost of coal and far easier to install in remote areas. So RE is twice as good as coal.
James Pyke Well it's a fact that wind turbines are by far the biggest cause of man made bird deaths. And in the UK they've added £150 to my annual energy bill and have ruined the landscape in many rural parts of Devon where I live.

Wind farms do not have to meet base load energy requirements as they are classed as secondary energy producers, not primary. Like solar voltaic cells, they cannot guarantee a constant supply into the electricity grid network. Wind fluctuations, low wind turbine speeds and very high winds drastically reduce their efficiency. Then there are the towers, massive concrete bases and power transmission cabling. You cannot just put these wind farms just anywhere, they have be placed in wind corridors. Issues of infra sound that can effect humans living in close proximity.
anton brum And also the power company still has to keep oil,coal,nuc,and natural gas plants in working order for times when the wind is not blowing or at night time.
anton brum - then what you're saying is that the wind farms aren't viable, seeing that they consume more energy in their manufacturing than they will put out over their entire usable lifespan. Put simply, they literally waste energy.
Blackgeoff1 don’t forget they should be removed after they are not used anymore,including the concrete bast.
Anton you really do not understand modern generation networks at all. Solar panels were shown to meet base load requirements by the CSIRO but modern networks no longer need that classification. By the way the solar battery in South Australia has significantly reduced the cost of power in South Australia.
Around 400 tonnes of concrete per tower.
Don't they realise how concrete is made
Finally someone with common sense !!!!
Yes however nothing will be done to stop this madness, politicians are paid to do as they are told without thinking of the consequences

Nicely done.... VERY well done. And all of this is consistent with everything my uncle, a power engineer, discovered while researching the efficacy of turbines over 10 years ago.
Efficiency is neither here nor there when the primary energy (wind) is free.
@@harry130747 Think again. You need to add the lifespan of the turbine with the amount of energy it can create and compare that to the tremendous amount of resources it took to build it and install it. Time deteriorates everything, even if it is not spinning. I don't see an issue with remove cabins in the mountains or research centres in Antarctica having a wind turbine as those spots are very windy and remote. What bothers me is when they place them in large cities(and nearby coast lines) of more conventional energy sources, purely for political show-and-tell. I don't know who they are showing, but it does tell one thing: They are not afraid to spend YOUR MONEY on useless things.

@@harry130747 You're kidding right?
For a start the wind is free only when it blows - and at the right speed, like Goldilocks porridge - not too fast and not too slow but juuust right.
Windmills most certainly are not free. They must be designed, manufactured, transported, constructed and commissioned, before a single light bulb is powered by one.
The 800 tons or so of concrete each one stands on is a huge consumption of resources never considered in the green argument nor their limited lifespan (20-ish years) and cost of disposal.

I researched wind turbines at sea too. Found it a staggeringly stupid idea on every level, environmental, cost, nature and economy. Then a skilful technical artist did a full digital scale mock up of the turbines on the beautiful landscape. It showed the fraud of the developers models. It was a Dutch/French owned company proposal. Then I went to a Greenpeace meeting in London - they thought the turbines at sea a great idea but with a staggering lack of analyses. It fitted their narrative and that was good enough. I wondered whether it was because of funding but it shocked me. Then I found that other UK nature charities would not contest this environmental travesty either. It was political, not environmental which then made me question charitable big business. Now I see Patrick Moore who started Greenpeace, says it is now, very sadly, a commercial corporation.
Most charities are nothing more than a means of generating income for their board members and shareholders...

Dear Lord Monckton, thank you for the excellent lecture. Would you consider reviewing what the impact would be if our focus was on energy use efficiency and pollution reduction (toxic chemicals, plastic etc). I don't know what the math will show, but I am imagining that it would dwarf all the windmill type impact analysis in terms of benefit. Imagine what 1% efficiency increase would mean where efficiency=device energy, and productivity + our habits etc. Its one thing to reduce warming gasses (assuming that it was necessary) and another to destroy the various ecosystems with pollution and bad management.
You and lord Monkey are well suited. Neither of you could solve your way out of a quadratic equation.
From one Viscount to another Viscount .You are absolutely correct.I am a Master electrician and I know exactly what you are talking about .The cost to operate windmills are far to high .And the solar forcing has been completely omitted for so called climate change .Coal fired plants are best for Africa and need to be implemented asap to solve many issues .Nuclear is out of the question as they are far too unstable politically
That was awesome!
But I’m super frustrated now. It’s November 2019 and my government (Australia) is still being held to ransom by “green” bullshit. And I’m personally being held to ransom by an electricity corporation because they can just charge me whatever the f they want in the name of “renewables”.
Bat WomanXVII - I live in the west, where we have less choice than over east; we have only Synergy (used to be Western Power); and our bills only get higher every time, yet I know we're consuming less power. Outside of plain simple greed on the part of the privatised electricity corporations, the plan is to get the public screaming out for "renewables" because they imagine the electricity they pay through the nose for will become cheaper. It won't, of course. Our days of cheap energy are over.
Actually Geoff I live in the West too and solar panels have hugely reduced my power bills and the fact is wind and solar are now less than half the cost of fossil fuel powered energy. As soon as batteries get cheaper I will completely go solar. By the way have you noticed the massive fire fronts and the 9 year drought destroying the livelihoods of many people in QLD and Northern NSW, even though its not summer yet? Global warming is really kicking in now.
Really so why are they sucking up to Adani and other coal companies? I don't suppose that its because the Coal companies are pouring millions of dollars into the Governments pocket.
By the way I hope your home hasn't been burnt down by the huge bushfires or that the farmers in your area haven't been made bankrupt by the nine year drought or that your town water supply has run out.
and he didn't even mention the maintenance cost of these turbines - particularly those that are sighted at sea - and those that are sighted in the sea are prone to "leading edge" corrosion from the rain and wind which carries salt....!
The wind turbines are a waste of taxpayers money. Raising atmospheric carbon dioxide levels greens the planet and increases agricultural yields. It does more good than harm. Man has been changing the environment since Palaeolithic times. Even hunter gatherers alter the fauna and flora in their environment. It is much more economical to adapt to any changes in climate than wasting trillions of dollars trying to reduce carbon dioxide emissions.

Can anyone direct me to a credible source that calculated the amount of energy needed to build these turbines (so for the making of concrete, steel, glassfiber etc.) please?
I recently came across a meme that I cannot find the source of, but for interest's sake it states that "a two-megawatt windmill is made up of 260 tons of steel that require 300 tons of iron ore and 170 tons of coking coal, all mined, transported and produced by hydrocarbons. A windmill could spin until it falls apart and never generate as much energy as was invested in building it". That's just the steel. And as engineer 800lbgrila commented above, the copper has to be mined. At present, I fail to see how wind turbines can possibly be viable in terms of energy required just to build them.
Blimey someone in the House of Lords that is not a waste of space.

Superb my Lord!
Very informative. Thank you. I wonder why they refer to wind turbines as windmills. Windmills are use to mill cereals. Isn't wind turbine the correct term? I know, I am being picky. I live in Blyth, Northumberland, Uk. I agree with an earlier comment about the numbers of wind turbines in the north of England and in Scotland. From the beach at Blyth I can see 1 windfarm of 5 massive turbines about 3-4 miles offshore, another of two turbines not far from them and one huge turbine at the start of the main pier into the harbour. The latter replaced nine smaller turbines that used to run along the pier.Then there are two more large turbines about 4 miles west of Blyth and another two windfarms with a dozen or so turbines 10 -20 miles north west of Blyth. All can be seen from the beach. It's ruining the views we used to have.
Maurice Laidler many years ago I went to Crete, and one of the tourist sites was a farming valley where the irrigation system was run by windmills. Windmills in Lassithi. At the time we were told that we were lucky to see them as they were phasing them out for electric ones, as the wind ones were too unreliable.
Your views will be ruined much more when the sea swallows your house

I would love to see those Animal rights activists sue the windmill owners and the Governments that have allowed this to happen, regarding bird kills etc.
When mining companies sign a mining lease they undertake to rehabilitate the land at the end. Mostly it ends up better than when they started. When windfarms close doen they leave the towers there to slowly rust away as terrible eyesores, and the land is rendered useless. This is supposed to be "renewable" energy.

Fossil fuel generation. Kills everything living.
This is good information. I do believe that we should not rule out the use of nuclear power. Our currently used nuclear technologies are more expensive than coal burning in the short run. The new reactor designs that should be available soon, if ignorance about nuclear doesn't slow them down, should be as cheap as coal and environmental safer than coal. Nuclear has 2 million times the energy per unit of mass as any form of chemical energy such as coal. There is less digging to get the fuel and the waste isn't really waste at all but a valuable resources that we can use for all kinds of interest stuff. Thank for being interested in mathematically and scientifically driven choices about our energy future.

Ask any salesman who has to sell a bad product - same deal as these wind generators. Everyone loses a little bit when these things happen.
This is a good presentation. However, he neglected to include the fossil fuel cost in producing the windmills, installing them and the infrastructure required to connect their electricity to the grid. Huge amounts of steel, aluminum and concrete are need to do this and a staggering amount of fossil fuel is required to produce them. That fossil fuel cost should be factored into the equation.

It occurs to me, that these expensive windfarms and solar farms are undesirable: it would be better to first enrich the world's population with affordable oil, before switching over to durable energy. As there is now no urgent reason to switch to durable energy, it seems economically wasteful to do so.
Abandoning crude oil would mean making an effort to keep the oil in the ground for future generations, thatv are not allowed to touch it, instead have to keep it in the ground for future generations to do the same.
These "expensive" wind and solar farms which generate cheaper, cleaner electricity, are undesirable for the FF industry and their coal cucked cult of denial brethren and their $5.3 trillion a year taxpayer funded welfare scam.

Saudis need it now, to fund arms . No way will they leave it in the ground.
I met an oil industry engineer from Texas whilst snowboarding in Canada. She told me fossil fuel companies love wind and solar and are investing. She said fossil fuel use was increased as coal fired plants are shut down when the wind blows and the sun shines and restarted whent its not blowing or shining It take a lot of coal to cold start a coal fired power station but not much to keep it running.

Does anybody know where I could find the talk the pharmacist gave, as mentioned by Lord Monckton?
Simple smaller land based turbines are already being replaced at about 10 years. ADD THAT TO THE COSTS.
So fossil fuel turbines don't wear out?
I wonder why the old coal based generation plants are being shut down and the owners want to build wind and solar. Perhaps its because wind and solar power is half the cost .
Solar is way better as is tidal energy (in places with high tides). I hate windmills.
Powskier: first, do some research on what it takes to manufacture solar panels. Then how to dispose of them when they have reached the end of their life. Hint - you can't. Then work out how you are going to use them when the sun don't shine. Then work out the costs of making, buying, maintaining and disposing of batteries. Then compare all of this with the cost of nuclear power. Many nuclear power stations have been operating for years and there have only been a very few incidents. The Russian one I would put down to poor design, materials and operation. The Japanese one I would put down to being built on a fault line and no being able to cope - once again poor design. But there are many out there that have been operating on land, in submarines and big ships for years. Both solar and windmills have come about because of the fiction of AGW. But our laws should ensure that industries clear up their act re. pollution. However, try telling that to the Indians and the Chinese.
How much oil do these things go through on their bearings and to turn the blades ?
As for global warming, I leave the discussion for the geologists to have. But regarding windmills, the Lord is 100% right.
It's just been too long since we have heard any of the many alternative arguments to the climate doom mongers' narrative.
Church of Climatology zealots disliking this video? I thought they like stats.
Pay your carbon indulgence you eater!

Heliohydroelecric energy is where we SHOULD be going and what we should be using more of.
Are initial emissions for putting all these windmills up included? If not, we‘ll have a plus. Maintenance on top.
odd how environmentalists are concerned about everything in the environment...except birds being killed by windmills.
Odd how you sook about birds being killed when 7-9 million people die each year from FF air pollution. Don't seem too concerned about the far greater number of birds killed by FFs either I see. They don't seemed concerned by the truth either. Like all deniers they only seem to care about that $5.3 trillion a year taxpayer funded FF welfare subsidy gravy train.

@4Real Science Why don't you stop sucking Koch long enough to read something other than FF funded fantasies? Moron. By definition CO2 is a pollutant, moron. If only your parents new what birth control was, the world would be a better place.
@4Real Science CO2 is part of me, so what? That your scientific understanding? Worked that out all on your own?
So is water moron. So if you think more is better go live at the bottom of the sea moron. See how that works out for you moron.
Crap is a part of you too, perhaps the entirety.
James Pyke uh you want to know the subsidies given to “green” energy or were you too afraid to put it out there? Let me know I’ll do the work for you.
CO2 IS ESSENTIAL FOR ALL ON EARTH TO SURVIVE!
Christopher is on the MONEY.
I’ve always admired Lord Monckton but I don’t know whether this is covered in this video but why are we demonising CO2? I can anyone answer that for me please
Economic crisis by design.
WE ARE ACTUALLY HAVING A CO2 DROUGHT!
Yes in Northern NSW there has been no significant rain in 9 years. The farmers are going to the wall and agricultural exports have decreased markedly. Droughts cause farmers to give up farming and sometimes they suicide.
Simply Thank you! We need to stop this madness and the fear of God put into our young children..
He's right, let's light up Africa
He's "only" 100% right, but truth isn't very popular these days. Hysteria and asinine nonsense are more in vogue than ever, however.
