Americans....even ones looking like what appears to be Lucky's son....owners of more coal than anyone else in the world. Including the prison colonies of the Crown.

US gas producing regions, EACH making more natural gas than those pipsqueak islands full of servants to a King without the cajones to cast them off.....neonazi cowards shooting unarmed folks on the beach though...oh so brave.

Three US Regions Produce More Natural Gas Than Most Countries All those regions making more natural gas than the entire country of neonazi toadies to the Crown in Australia.

The best Australians can come up with for ANY kind of transport. Feet. The sticks are for protection, apparently only neoNazis are allowed to own guns to shoot Jews and the normal Australians are worried about Lucky and his friends.

The military only go where the big profits for the corporations are and they already have free rein in Mexico.

Ukraine holds the 7th largest coal reserves in the world about 34 billion tonnes and 3rd largest anthracite coal reserves – 5.8 billion tonnes.

Image

This is an old map and the Russians have moved a lot further West, they own that coal now, and Zelinskee and his generals have their mansions in London and Florida now so it's mission accomplished as far as they are concerned too. Who knows, maybe they were working for Putin all the time :lol:
All Putin did was reverse the largess of Khrushchev. Much of that land, including the Crimea, was historically Russian. Why hand it over? Because the ukraine was a faithful Soviet satellite, they probably never guessed they would be betrayed by them.

As a famous American General once disclosed, war is a racket.
Excerpt from a speech delivered in 1933, by Major General Smedley Butler, USMC
$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'I') suspected I was just part of a racket at the time. Now I am sure of it. Like all the members of the military profession, I never had a thought of my own until I left the service. My mental faculties remained in suspended animation while I obeyed the orders of higher-ups. This is typical with everyone in the military service.

I helped make Mexico, especially Tampico, safe for American oil interests in 1914. I helped make Haiti and Cuba a decent place for the National City Bank boys to collect revenues in. I helped in the raping of half a dozen Central American republics for the benefits of Wall Street. The record of racketeering is long. I helped purify Nicaragua for the international banking house of Brown Brothers in 1909-1912 (where have I heard that name before?). I brought light to the Dominican Republic for American sugar interests in 1916. In China I helped to see to it that Standard Oil went its way unmolested.

During those years, I had, as the boys in the back room would say, a swell racket. Looking back on it, I feel that I could have given Al Capone a few hints. The best he could do was to operate his racket in three districts. I operated on three continents.
https://www.sdvfp.org/war-is-a-racket/

But I understand why the average Joe in the street swallows the propaganda and rallies around the flag, they think that they too will share in the profits, and for a while, many do. Certainly killing off millions of your young men takes the pressure off your employment, you'll be in demand! And all those extra women available... But at the end of the day the bills must be paid.

It's not so bad in an allied nation outside of the core, there you just send in token troops and don't foot the bill for all the military hardware but you get to share in the fruits of the labour. Cheaper oil for example! Or a stable trading arena. Yes, I'm no hypocrite, I've benefitted from all this world plundering too. But I'm not ignorant to the realities of it as many are. I don't buy the official propaganda, like securing the ukraine as a bastion on freedom, when it was the most corrupt nation in Europe to begin with, the pedophile center of the world.

Ukraine's coal imports soar 172% to 1.81 million mt in 2024 :lol: :lol:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'U')kraine imported coal primarily from Poland, the US, Australia, the Czech Republic, Colombia, and Kazakhstan. Imports rose significantly as many domestic coal producers in eastern regions of the country reduced their output due to the advance of Russian troops, power shortages and a lack of workers.

Ukraine was able to accumulate large coal reserves mostly due to the fact that Russia has destroyed many fossil fuel-burning power plants, weakening the immediate demand for coal. However, demand for coal is expected to increase once Ukraine begins to rebuild its power plants with the help of Western partners.
https://www.spglobal.com/energy/en/news ... mt-in-2024
Once the ukraine rebuilds it's power plants lol LOL. Love it. While the US is floundering around in South America trying to "Manage" a regime change, Russia has gone in and transferred the 7th largest coal reserves on the planet to the Russian federation. That's sovereign Russian soil now, it's never going back this side of a nuclear war. Oh those Russians play a long long game alright. They are cornering the world's remaining natural resources in partnership with China. The New Age, just another version of the old age.

This is what west has been fed, and the people believe it too, cracks me up :lol:

Another win for the lucky country!

Operation Of Australia's Largest Coal Power Station Extended To 2029
https://www.theguardian.com/australia-n ... ional-grid

Two years, for now :lol: That's Woke NSW slowly crawling away from Green policies. Up here in QLD we're all in Coal. Beautiful cheap clean Coal.

Down here in Oz we've pretty much tossed rebuildables in the trash, and thankfully we didn't go all in, like some "Former" first world nations. The nations that will prosper in the decades ahead are those that didn't throw their Coal fired capacity in the trash can. Now those nations are stuck with horrendously expensive and unreliable re-buildable technologies that still have to be paid for. Yes, those endless windfarms and solar arrays are amortized over 5 or 7 years but that's just the tax write off, the debt repayments can go on for decades, so expect ever higher electricity prices as consumption declines and the utilities are forced to recoup their investments from whoever is still connected.
$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'F')inancing Terms: Large-scale offshore wind projects often rely on long-term debt to cover construction, with some projects having 16-year debt structures

Assuming low interest rates... Energy usage has been in decline across the US and Western Europe for decades. They have tried to explain it away with claims that efficiency gains, blah blah blah. But Jevon's Paradox has proved the opposite occurs, and as technology improves the efficiency with which a resource is used, the total consumption of that resource increases because the cost of using it decrease. That was the 1950's and 1960's America, huge cars and endless driving. Then PeakOil and with the US having to import more than it exported, the cost went up and consumption fell.

Even in the peak of the shaleOil bubble with America exporting more oil than it imported the equation was backwards. The oil they exported had cost a fortune to recover, the heavy oil they imported at the same price was cheap out of the well conventional production from Russia, Canada and Saudi Arabia etc. Some bankers and company execs made a lot from shale oil but there were no profits to flow down to the transsexual and lesbian in the street. Australian production peaked in 2001 but we still export mountains of it. Why? Because our oil is predominantly Heavy oil and we require a lot more light Gasoline products because we drive a lot. We export primarily to Asian markets like South Korea and China and import refined petroleum products. It's cheaper than building new refineries. Here we don't cut off our noses to spite our faces.

The 2,880-megawatt Eraring coal-fired power station will continue to operate until 2029, operator Origin Energy has announced.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('AdamB', '')$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('annie', 'T')he Alternatives—Coal...by Dale Allen Pfeiffer
new article posted on his blog this morning (27 Nov 2005): link


OMG talk about memories of the good ol' days! Dale Allen was Mike Ruppert's personal geologist and sidekick before they had some kind of falling out.

For those who don't remember, Ruppert was a beat cop turned pamphleteer who got into using doom stories early on to sell website subscriptions. Hell bent on connecting dots that weren't in the same universe, a 9/11 truther, someone who cured his own alcoholism by <wait for it> continuing to drink!, a resident of Bellevue...yes..BELLEVUE, someone who fled the US vowing to never come back and after a little vacation time...came back!!


OMG! Like this was PRECOGNITIVE! And to believe that one of the local homophobes fell for Michael "I lied about being a detective" Ruppert because he was all MARTZ and all! A convicted child molester was one of his sources for the 9/11 conspiracy don't you know! As good as "evolution can't be true because.....WHALES BE BIGLY!!!".

Ha Ha Ha Ha. Venezuela has more oil than any other nation on the Planet but it hasn't helped them either. Your Leftist mentality has banned coal. Windmills for you I'm afraid.


We're good down here! 80% Coal fired and the rest residential solar. Coal is the future, for prosperous nations that is.

Australian Coal reserves are the largest on the planet, per capita. And that's all that matters. Your rich uncle dies and leaves an estate worth two million dollars, but if it's divided between 20 beneficiaries, that's only 100k each, a couple of new cars, so what.

But of course for Australia to benefit from its Coal reserves it has to employ them, and we do! They are cheap to mine, no horizontal drilling, no millions of tons of sand and chemicals to be injected. We just dig it up and ship it out on trains. We use a small percentage to keep out lights on (cheaply) and export the rest to the World for hard currency. All the benefits divided not between 360 million people, just 27 million. Is it any wonder they call us the Lucky Country :wink:
